1 My little children, I write these to you, that ye sin not. And if any sin, we have an intercessor with the Father, Jesus Christ the just:

2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

3 And in this we know that we have known him, if we should keep his commands.

4 He saying, I have known him, and not keeping his commands, is a liar, and in him is not the truth.

5 Whoever should keep his word, truly in him has the word of God been completed: in this we know that we are in him.

6 He saying he remains in him ought, as he walked about, so also he to walk about.

7 Brethren, I write no new command to you, but an old command which ye had from the beginning. The old command is the word which ye heard from the beginning.

8 Again, I write a new command to you, which is true in him and in you: for the darkness is passed away, and the true light already shines.
