3
And each man that hath this hope in him, maketh himself holy, as [and] he is holy.
4
Each man that doeth sin, doeth also wickedness, and sin is wickedness.
5
And ye know, that he appeared to do away sins, and sin is not in him.
6
Each man that dwelleth in him, sinneth not; and each that sinneth, seeth not him, neither knew him.
7
Little sons, no man deceive you; he that doeth rightwiseness, is just, as also he is just.
8
He that doeth sin, is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. In this thing the Son of God appeared, that he undo the works of the devil.
9
Each man that is born of God, doeth not sin; for the seed of God dwelleth in him, and he may not do sin [and he may not sin], for he is born of God.
10
In this thing the sons of God be known, and the sons of the fiend. Each man that is not just, is not of God, and he that loveth not his brother [and he that loveth not his brother, is not of God].
11
For this is the telling, that ye heard at the beginning, that ye love each other;
12
not as Cain, that was of the devil, and slew his brother. And for what thing slew he him? for his works were evil, and his brother's just.
13
Brethren, do not ye wonder, if the world hateth you.
