¹¹ “Now this is the parable: ^(A)the seed is the word of God.

²³ for you have been ^(A)born again ^(B)not of seed which is perishable, but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring ^(C)word of God.

And this is ^(B)the word which was ^[a]preached to you.

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.

^19 (A)Why the Law then? It was added on account of the ^[a]violations, having been ^(B)ordered through angels ^(C)at the hand of a ^[b]mediator, until ^(D)the Seed would come to whom the promise had been made.
