1 John 2:22

Who is the shakran (liar)? Who but the one making hakhchashah (denial) and claiming that Yehoshua is not the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach? This one is the Anti-Moshiach, the one making hakhchashah (denial) of HaAv and HaBen.

Orthodox Jewish Bible

In The King James Version

Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
