'Sin' in the Bible

Because of this I say to you, all sin and evil speaking shall be forgiven to men, but the evil speaking of the Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.

'And if thy brother may sin against thee, go and show him his fault between thee and him alone, if he may hear thee, thou didst gain thy brother;

Then Peter having come near to him, said, 'Sir, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him -- till seven times?'

I did sin, having delivered up innocent blood;' and they said, 'What -- to us? thou shalt see!'

having risen, I will go on unto my father, and will say to him, Father, I did sin -- to the heaven, and before thee,

and the son said to him, Father, I did sin -- to the heaven, and before thee, and no more am I worthy to be called thy son.

'Take heed to yourselves, and, if thy brother may sin in regard to thee, rebuke him, and if he may reform, forgive him,

and if seven times in the day he may sin against thee, and seven times in the day may turn back to thee, saying, I reform; thou shalt forgive him.'

on the morrow John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, 'Lo, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world;

After these things, Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, 'Lo, thou hast become whole; sin no more, lest something worse may happen to thee.'

and she said, 'No one, Sir;' and Jesus said to her, 'Neither do I pass sentence on thee; be going on, and no more sin.'

therefore said Jesus again to them, 'I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.'

Jesus answered them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you -- Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,

Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?

and his disciples asked him, saying, 'Rabbi, who did sin, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?'

Jesus answered, 'Neither did this one sin nor his parents, but that the works of God may be manifested in him;

Jesus said to them, 'If ye were blind, ye were not having had sin, but now ye say -- We see, therefore doth your sin remain.

if I had not come and spoken to them, they were not having sin; but now pretext they have not for their sin.

if I did not do among them the works that no other hath done, they were not having sin, and now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father;

and having come, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment;

concerning sin indeed, because they do not believe in me;

Jesus answered, 'Thou wouldest have no authority against me, if it were not having been given thee from above; because of this, he who is delivering me up to thee hath greater sin.'

and having bowed the knees, he cried with a loud voice, 'Lord, mayest thou not lay to them this sin;' and this having said, he fell asleep.

he making defence -- 'Neither in regard to the law of the Jews, nor in regard to the temple, nor in regard to Caesar -- did I commit any sin.'

for as many as without law did sin, without law also shall perish, and as many as did sin in law, through law shall be judged,

What, then? are we better? not at all! for we did before charge both Jews and Greeks with being all under sin,

wherefore by works of law shall no flesh be declared righteous before Him, for through law is a knowledge of sin.

for all did sin, and are come short of the glory of God --

happy the man to whom the Lord may not reckon sin.'

because of this, even as through one man the sin did enter into the world, and through the sin the death; and thus to all men the death did pass through, for that all did sin;

for till law sin was in the world: and sin is not reckoned when there is not law;

and not as through one who did sin is the free gift, for the judgment indeed is of one to condemnation, but the gift is of many offences to a declaration of 'Righteous,'

And law came in, that the offence might abound, and where the sin did abound, the grace did overabound,

that even as the sin did reign in the death, so also the grace may reign, through righteousness, to life age-during, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

What, then, shall we say? shall we continue in the sin that the grace may abound?

let it not be! we who died to the sin -- how shall we still live in it?

this knowing, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of the sin may be made useless, for our no longer serving the sin;

for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.

for in that he died, to the sin he died once, and in that he liveth, he liveth to God;

so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Let not then the sin reign in your mortal body, to obey it in its desires;

neither present ye your members instruments of unrighteousness to the sin, but present yourselves to God as living out of the dead, and your members instruments of righteousness to God;

for sin over you shall not have lordship, for ye are not under law, but under grace.

What then? shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? let it not be!

have ye not known that to whom ye present yourselves servants for obedience, servants ye are to him to whom ye obey, whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness?

and thanks to God, that ye were servants of the sin, and -- were obedient from the heart to the form of teaching to which ye were delivered up;

and having been freed from the sin, ye became servants to the righteousness.

for when ye were servants of the sin, ye were free from the righteousness,

And now, having been freed from the sin, and having become servants to God, ye have your fruit -- to sanctification, and the end life age-during;

for the wages of the sin is death, and the gift of God is life age-during in Christ Jesus our Lord.

What, then, shall we say? the law is sin? let it not be! but the sin I did not know except through law, for also the covetousness I had not known if the law had not said:

Thou shalt not covet;' and the sin having received an opportunity, through the command, did work in me all covetousness -- for apart from law sin is dead.

And I was alive apart from law once, and the command having come, the sin revived, and I died;

for the sin, having received an opportunity, through the command, did deceive me, and through it did slay me;

That which is good then, to me hath it become death? let it not be! but the sin, that it might appear sin, through the good, working death to me, that the sin might become exceeding sinful through the command,

for we have known that the law is spiritual, and I am fleshly, sold by the sin;

and now it is no longer I that work it, but the sin dwelling in me,

And if what I do not will, this I do, it is no longer I that work it, but the sin that is dwelling in me.

and I behold another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of the sin that is in my members.

I thank God -- through Jesus Christ our Lord; so then, I myself indeed with the mind do serve the law of God, and with the flesh, the law of sin.

for the law of the Spirit of the life in Christ Jesus did set me free from the law of the sin and of the death;

for what the law was not able to do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, His own Son having sent in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, did condemn the sin in the flesh,

and if Christ is in you, the body, indeed, is dead because of sin, and the Spirit is life because of righteousness,

and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because it is not of faith; and all that is not of faith is sin.

flee the whoredom; every sin -- whatever a man may commit -- is without the body, and he who is committing whoredom, against his own body doth sin.

But and if thou mayest marry, thou didst not sin; and if the virgin may marry, she did not sin; and such shall have tribulation in the flesh: and I spare you.

and if any one doth think it to be unseemly to his virgin, if she may be beyond the bloom of age, and it ought so to be, what he willeth let him do; he doth not sin -- let him marry.

and thus sinning in regard to the brethren, and smiting their weak conscience -- in regard to Christ ye sin;

awake up, as is right, and sin not; for certain have an ignorance of God; for shame to you I say it.

and the sting of the death is the sin, and the power of the sin the law;

for him who did not know sin, in our behalf He did make sin, that we may become the righteousness of God in him.

The sin did I do -- myself humbling that ye might be exalted, because freely the good news of God I did proclaim to you?

And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!

but the Writing did shut up the whole under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ may be given to those believing.

be angry and do not sin; let not the sun go down upon your wrath,

let not any one deceive you in any manner, because -- if the falling away may not come first, and the man of sin be revealed -- the son of the destruction,

having known that he hath been subverted who is such, and doth sin, being self-condemned.

but exhort ye one another every day, while the To-day is called, that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of the sin,

but with whom was He grieved forty years? was it not with those who did sin, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?

for we have not a chief priest unable to sympathise with our infirmities, but one tempted in all things in like manner -- apart from sin;

since it had behoved him many times to suffer from the foundation of the world, but now once, at the full end of the ages, for putting away of sin through his sacrifice, he hath been manifested;

And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered -- to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, --

and where forgiveness of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, every weight having put off, and the closely besetting sin, through endurance may we run the contest that is set before us,

Not yet unto blood did ye resist -- with the sin striving;

for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest -- of these the bodies are burned without the camp.

afterward the desire having conceived, doth give birth to sin, and the sin having been perfected, doth bring forth death.

and if ye accept persons, sin ye do work, being convicted by the law as transgressors;

to him, then, knowing to do good, and not doing, sin it is to him.

who did not commit sin, nor was guile found in his mouth,

because also Christ once for sin did suffer -- righteous for unrighteous -- that he might lead us to God, having been put to death indeed, in the flesh, and having been made alive in the spirit,

Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,

having eyes full of adultery, and unable to cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having an heart exercised in covetousnesses, children of a curse,

and if in the light we may walk, as He is in the light -- we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son doth cleanse us from every sin;

if we may say -- 'we have not sin,' ourselves we lead astray, and the truth is not in us;

My little children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin: and if any one may sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,

Every one who is doing the sin, the lawlessness also he doth do, and the sin is the lawlessness,

and ye have known that he was manifested that our sins he may take away, and sin is not in him;

every one who is remaining in him doth not sin; every one who is sinning, hath not seen him, nor known him.

he who is doing the sin, of the devil he is, because from the beginning the devil doth sin; for this was the Son of God manifested, that he may break up the works of the devil;
