Back to chapter

1830 Edition

Wherefore, all things which are good, cometh of God; and that which is evil, cometh of the Devil: for the Devil is an enemy unto God, and fighteth against him continually, and inviteth and enticeth to sin, and to do that which is evil continually.

Changes

Wherefore, all things which are good, cometh of God; and that which is evil, cometh of the Ddevil:; for the Ddevil is an enemy unto God, and fighteth against him continually, and inviteth and enticeth to sin, and to do that which is evil continually.

Simple English

So all good things come from God. Evil things come from the Devil. The Devil is God’s enemy. He always fights against God. He invites and leads people to sin and do evil all the time.

Paraphrase

Everything good comes from God. Everything evil comes from the Devil. The Devil is God’s enemy and fights against him constantly, always inviting and tempting people to sin and do what’s evil.
