⁹ No one who has been ^(A)born of God practices sin, because His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin continually, because he has been born of God.

^18 (A)We know that ^(B)no one who has been born of God ^[a]sins; but He who was born of God ^(C)keeps him, and ^(D)the evil one does not ^(E)touch him.
