Exegesis
The prepositional phrase en heautois {ἐν ἑαυτοῖς | en he-au-toîs} “in yourselves” places the deficiency inside their own being, not merely in outward behavior. In English, the clause is rendered with a natural subject–verb–object order (“you do not have the love of God in yourselves” / “within you”) while preserving the internal focus conveyed by the Greek prepositional phrase.
In context — John 5:42
But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves .
