American Standard Version
There is no fear in love: but perfect love casteth out fear, because fear hath punishment; and he that feareth is not made perfect in love.

Amplified® Bible
There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors {and} expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love's complete perfection].

Contemporary English Version
A real love for others will chase those worries away. The thought of being punished is what makes us afraid. It shows that we have not really learned to love.

Darby English Version
There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has torment, and he that fears has not been made perfect in love.

Good News Bible
There is no fear in love; perfect love drives out all fear. So then, love has not been made perfect in anyone who is afraid, because fear has to do with punishment.

International Standard Version
There is no fear where love exists. Rather, perfect love banishes fear, for fear involves punishment, and the person who lives in fear has not been perfected in love.

King James Version
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

New American Standard Bible
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.

New International Version
There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

New King James Version
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

N.A.S.B. in E-Prime
There exists no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears has not received perfection in love.

Young's Literal Translation
fear is not in the love, but the perfect love doth cast out the fear, because the fear hath punishment, and he who is fearing hath not been made perfect in the love;
