7 Little children, let no one ^qdeceive you. ^rWhoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous.

10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother.

11 Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. ^fWhoever does good is from God; ^gwhoever does evil has not seen God.
