3 And everyone having this expectation in Him cleanses himself, as He is clean.
4 Everyone doing sin also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness.
5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.
6 Everyone staying in Him does not sin. Everyone sinning has neither seen Him nor known Him.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. The one doing righteousness is righteous, even as He is righteous.
8 The one doing sin is of the devil, because the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Elohim was manifested: to destroy the works of the devil.
9 Everyone having been born of Elohim does not sin, because His seed stays in him, and he is powerless to sin, because he has been born of Elohim.
