NETBible

But if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous,¹ forgiving² us our sins and cleansing³ us from all unrighteousness.

NET Notes

¹tn Or “just.”

²tn The ἵνα (Jina) followed by the subjunctive is here equivalent to the infinitive of result, an “ecbatic” or consecutive use of ἵνα according to BDAG 477 s.v. 3 where 1 John 1:9 is listed as a specific example. The translation with participles (“forgiving, …cleansing”) conveys this idea of result.

³tn Or “purifying.”
