9 (A)If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous, so that He will forgive us our sins and (B)cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 (C)If we say that we have not sinned, we (D)make Him a liar and (E)His word is not in us.
Christ Is Our Advocate

And if anyone sins, (H)we have an [a](I)Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; 2 and He Himself is (J)the [b]propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also (K)for the sins of the whole world.
