3 John  


1 : 1 The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in truth.
1 : 2 Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers.
1 : 3 For I was very glad when brethren came and testified to your truth, that is, how you are walking in truth.
1 : 4 I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth.
1 : 5 Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the brethren, and especially when they are strangers;
1 : 6 and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God.
1 : 7 For they went out for the sake of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles.
1 : 8 Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers with the truth.
1 : 9 I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept what we say.
1 : 10 For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not receive the brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and puts them out of the church.
1 : 11 Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.
1 : 12 Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself; and we add our testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.
1 : 13 I had many things to write to you, but I am not willing to write them to you with pen and ink;
1 : 14 but I hope to see you shortly, and we will speak face to face.
1 : 15 Peace be to you The friends greet you Greet the friends by name.
