Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

ગુજરાતીયોહાનનો પહેલો પત્ર ૨:૭
વહાલાંઓ, નવી આજ્ઞા નહિ, પણ જૂની આજ્ઞા જે તમારી પાસે આરંભથી હતી, તે વિષે હું તમને લખું છું. જે વચન તમે સાંભળ્યું, તે જ જૂની આજ્ઞા છે.
हिन्दी1 यूहन्ना २:७
हे प्रियों, मैं तुम्हें कोई नई आज्ञा नहीं लिखता, पर वही पुरानी आज्ञा जो आरम्भ से तुम्हें मिली है; यह पुरानी आज्ञा वह वचन है, जिसे तुम ने सुना है।

In context

5But God’s love has most certainly been perfected in whoever keeps his word. This is how we know that we are in him:

6he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.

7Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

8Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light already shines.

9He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in the darkness even until now.
