1 John 5:16-18
Worldwide English (New Testament)
16 Maybe a man sees his brother do something wrong, but not so bad that he must die for it. The man should ask God and God will let his brother live. God will let people live if the things they have done are not so bad that they must die for them. But there are things so wrong that a person must die for them. If he has done such as that, I do not tell the man to ask God to let him live.
17 Everything that is wrong is a bad thing. But not every bad thing is so wrong that a person must die for it.
18 We know that any child of God does not do wrong things. The Son of God keeps him safe and the devil cannot touch him.

New International Version
16 If you see any brother or sister commit a sin that does not lead to death, you should pray and God will give them life.(A) I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death.(B) I am not saying that you should pray about that.(C) 17 All wrongdoing is sin,(D) and there is sin that does not lead to death.(E)
18 We know that anyone born of God(F) does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one(G) cannot harm them.(H)
