1 John 3:7-9
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
7 Little-children, let no one be deceiving you— the one doing righteousness is righteous, just as that One is righteous. 8 The one doing sin is of the devil, because the devil is sinning[a] from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this: that He might destroy the works of the devil. 9 Everyone having been born[b] from God is not doing sin— because His seed[c] is abiding in him, and he is not able to be sinning[d] because he has been born from God.
