14And this is the confidence that we haue in him, that if wee aske any thing according to his will, hee heareth vs. 15And if we know that he heare vs, whatsoeuer wee aske, wee know that we haue the petitions that wee desired of him. 16If any man see his brother sinne a sinne which is not vnto death, hee shall aske, and he shall giue him life for them that sinne not vnto death. There is a sinne vnto death: I doe not say that he shall pray for it. 17All vnrighteousnes is sinne, and there is a sinne not vnto death. 18We know that whosoeuer is borne of God, sinneth not: but hee that is begotten of God, keepeth himselfe, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
