6If we make the claim that we have deveykus with Him and in the choshech walk, we speak sheker and have no halakhah in the Derech Emes.
7But if our halakhah is in the Ohr as He is in the Ohr, we have hitkhabrut (joining, adhesion, fellowship) with one another and the dahm of Yehoshua, HaBen of Hashem,1:7 See Isa 4:2 gives us tohorah (cleansing) from kol chet.1:7 Isa 2:5
9If we make vidduy (confession of sin) of chattoteinu (our sins), he is ne’eman (faithful) and tzaddik to grant selicha (forgiveness) of chattoteinu (our sins) and give us tohorah (purification, cleansing) from kol avon.1:9 Dt 32:4; Ps 32:5; 51:2; Prov 28:13; Mic 7:18-20
