1 John 3:7

Little sons, (let) no man deceive you; he that doeth rightwiseness, is just, as also he is just.

Wycliffe Modern Spelling

In The King James Version

Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

In Context

6Each man that dwelleth in him, sinneth not; and each that sinneth, seeth not him, neither knew him. (Each one who remaineth in him, or who liveth in him, sinneth not; and each one who sinneth, seeth not him, nor knoweth him.)

8He that doeth sin, is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. In this thing the Son of God appeared, that he undo the works of the devil. (He who doeth sin, is of the Devil; for the Devil sinneth from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this, yea, that he destroy the works of the Devil.)
