OET (OET-LV)And we have_known and have_believed the love that god is_having the in us.
The god is love, and the one remaining in the love, is_remaining in the god, and the god is_remaining in him.

OET (OET-RV)We have known and experienced the love that God has in us.
¶ God is love, and anyone who lives in love, lives in God, and God lives in them.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclusive

ἡμεῖς & ἡμῖν

we & us

Here and in the rest of the letter, John speaks of himself and the believers to whom he is writing, so the words we and us will be inclusive. If your language marks that distinction, use the inclusive form in your translation.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τὴν ἀγάπην ἣν ἔχει ὁ Θεὸς ἐν ἡμῖν

the love that /is/_having ¬the God in us

The phrase translated in us here is the same as the phrase translated “among us” in 4:9. Here it could mean: (1) God’s love directed to us. Alternate translation: “the love that God has for us” (2) God’s love directed to others through us. Alternate translation: “the love that God has put into us” It may also be that John used a very general phrase in order to include both meanings.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ Θεὸς ἀγάπη ἐστίν

¬the God ¬The God love is

This is a metaphor that describes what God is like in his character. See how you translated it in 4:8. Alternate translation: “God is entirely loving”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ὁ μένων ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ

¬the ¬The the_‹one› remaining in ¬the love

See the discussion of the term “remain” in Part 3 of the Introduction to 1 John. As in 2:24, in this instance the word seems to refer to maintaining a pattern of behavior. Alternate translation: “a person who continues to love others”

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἐν τῷ Θεῷ μένει, καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ἐν αὐτῷ μένει

in in in ¬the God /is/_remaining and ¬the God in him /is/_remaining

See the discussion of the term “remain” in Part 3 of the Introduction to 1 John. In this instance, it seems to mean the same thing as in 2:6 and in 4:15. See how you translated it there. Alternate translation: “continues to have a close relationship with God, and God continues to have a close relationship with him”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

4:7-21 John explains the source of a Christian’s love and its outworking.

OET (OET-LV)And we have_known and have_believed the love that god is_having the in us.
The god is love, and the one remaining in the love, is_remaining in the god, and the god is_remaining in him.

OET (OET-RV)We have known and experienced the love that God has in us.
¶ God is love, and anyone who lives in love, lives in God, and God lives in them.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The SR Greek text, lemmas, morphology, and VLT gloss are all thanks to the SR-GNT.
