1 John 5:14-17
Legacy Standard Bible
14 And this is (A)the confidence which we have [a]before Him, that, (B)if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, (C)we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
16 If anyone sees his brother [b]committing a sin not leading to death, (D)he shall ask and [c]God will for him give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. (E)There is a sin leading to death; (F)I do not say that he should make request for this. 17 (G)All unrighteousness is sin, and (H)there is a sin not leading to death.

14 And this is (A)the confidence that we have toward him, that (B)if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.
16 If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and (C)God[a] will give him life—to those who commit sins that do not lead to death. (D)There is sin that leads to death; (E)I do not say that one should pray for that. 17 (F)All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that does not lead to death.
