1 John 1:8-10

New Century Version

⁸ If we say we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth is not in us. ⁹ But if we confess our sins, he will forgive our sins, because we can trust God to do what is right. He will cleanse us from all the wrongs we have done. ¹⁰ If we say we have not sinned, we make God a liar, and we do not accept God’s teaching.
