Καὶ πάντα προφήτην λαλοῦντα ἐν πνεύματι οὐ πειράσετε οὐδὲ διακρινεῖτε· πᾶσα γὰρ ἁμαρτία ἀφεθήσεται, αὕτη δὲ ἡ ἁμαρτία οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται.

English · Claude translation

And you shall not test or judge any prophet who speaks in the Spirit; for every sin will be forgiven, but this sin will not be forgiven.
