Various translations / versions of John 3:16

NIV - New International Version (1973-2011)

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 

NRSV - New Revised Standard Version (1989)

For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. 

CJB - Complete Jewish Bible (1998)

For God so loved the world that he gave his only and unique Son, so that everyone who trusts in him may have eternal life, instead of being utterly destroyed. 

MSG - The Message (1993-2002)

 This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn’t go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person’s failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him. 

VOICE - The Voice Bible (2012)

For God expressed His love for the world in this way: He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him will not face everlasting destruction, but will have everlasting life. 

KJV - (Authorized) King James Version (1611)

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
