1 John 5:14-17
New American Standard Bible
14 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 or sister [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 sin leading to death; (F)I am not saying that he should ask about that. 17 (G)All unrighteousness is sin, and (H)there is sin not leading to death.

1 John 5:14-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 And this is the boldness we have in him, that 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 obtained the requests made of him. 16 If you see your brother or sister committing what is not a deadly sin, you will ask, and God[a] will give life to such a one—to those whose sin is not deadly. There is sin that is deadly; I do not say that you should pray about that.(A) 17 All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that is not deadly.
