1 John 3:5-8

Coverdale(i) 5 And ye knowe that he appeared to take awaye oure synnes: and in him is no synne. 6 Who so euer abydeth in him, synneth not: who soeuer synneth, hath not sene him nether knowne him. 7 Babes, let noman disceaue you. He that doeth righteousnes, is righteous, euen as he is righteous. 8 He that commytteth synne, is of the deuell: for the deuell synneth sence ye begynnynge. For this purpose appeared the sonne of God, to lowse the workes of the deuell.
