¹⁸ People who believe in God’s Son are not ·judged guilty [condemned]. Those who do not believe have already been ·judged guilty [condemned], because they have not believed in [^Lthe name of] God’s ·one and only [only; unique; ^Tonly begotten; 3:16] Son. ¹⁹ ·They are judged by this fact [^LAnd this is the judgment/condemnation/verdict]: The Light [^CJesus, God’s Son] has come into the world, ·but they did not want light. They wanted darkness [^Lbut people loved the darkness more than the light], because they were doing evil things. ²⁰ All who do evil hate the light and will not come to the light, because it will show ·all the evil things they do [^Ltheir deeds/actions].
