^{2 Ref} beloved, now, children of God are we, and it was not yet manifested what we shall be, and we have known that if he may be manifested, like him we shall be, because we shall see him as he is;

^{3 Ref} and every one who is having this hope on him, doth purify himself, even as he is pure.

^{4 Ref} Every one who is doing the sin, the lawlessness also he doth do, and the sin is the lawlessness,

^{2 Ref} Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.

^{3 Ref} And every one that hath this hope `set' on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

^{4 Ref} Every one that doeth sin doeth also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.

^{2 Ref} Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet revealed what we will be. But we know that, when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is.

^{3 Ref} Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.

^{4 Ref} Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
