4 Cualquiera que hace pecado, traspasa también la ley; pues el pecado es transgresión de la ley.

5 Y sabéis que él apareció para quitar nuestros pecados, y no hay pecado en él.

6 Cualquiera que permanece en él, no peca; cualquiera que peca, no le ha visto, ni le ha conocido.

7 Hijitos, no os engañe ninguno: el que hace justicia, es justo, como él también es justo.

8 El que hace pecado, es del diablo; porque el diablo peca desde el principio. Para esto apareció el Hijo de Dios, para deshacer las obras del diablo.
