New American Standard Bible

1 John 5:11-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

11. And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.

12. He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.

13. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

14. This is the confidence which we have before 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 the requests which we have asked from Him.

16. If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask and God will for him give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death; I do not say that he should make request for this.

17. All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death.

18. We know that no one who is born of God sins; but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.
