1 John 1:8-10

Contemporary English Version

⁸ If we say we have not sinned, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth isn't in our hearts. ⁹ But if we confess our sins to God, he can always be trusted to forgive us and take our sins away.

¹⁰ If we say we have not sinned, we make God a liar, and his message isn't in our hearts.^[a]
