Of the devil
Whoever you are, do you commit sin, or do you not? If you do, is it willingly or unwillingly? In either case, God has told you whose you are: He who commits sin is of the devil. If you commit it willingly, you are his faithful servant. He will not fail to reward your labor. If unwillingly, still you are his servant. God deliver you out of his hands.

If thou committest it willingly, thou art his faithful servant. He will not fail to reward thy labour. If unwillingly, still thou art his servant. God deliver thee out of his hands!
