4 Quiconque pèche transgresse la loi, et le péché est la transgression de la loi.

5 Or, vous le savez, Jésus a paru pour ôter les péchés, et il n’y a point en lui de péché.

6 Quiconque demeure en lui ne pèche point; quiconque pèche ne l’a pas vu, et ne l’a pas connu.

7 Petits enfants, que personne ne vous séduise. Celui qui pratique la justice est juste, comme lui-même est juste.

8 Celui qui pèche est du diable, car le diable pèche dès le commencement. Le Fils de Dieu a paru afin de détruire les œuvres du diable.
