507 B

Beloved

Here this is used as a term of endearment for a fellow believer. See how you translated this in 3 John 1:5.

do not imitate what is evil

"do not copy the evil things that people do"

but what is good

There are words left out but they are understood. Alternate translation: "but imitate the good things that people do" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis)

is of God

"belongs to God"

has not seen God

"does not belong to God" or "does not believe in God"
