1 John 3:2 : 2 Beloved{G27}, now{G3568} are we{G2070}{(G5748)} the sons{G5043} of God{G2316}, and{G2532} it doth{G5319} not yet{G3768} appear{G5319}{(G5681)} what{G5101} we shall be{G2071}{(G5704)}: but{G1161} we know{G1492}{(G5758)} that{G3754}, when{G1437} he shall appear{G5319}{(G5686)}, we shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} like{G3664} him{G846}; for{G3754} we shall see{G3700}{(G5695)} him{G846} as{G2531} he is{G2076}{(G5748)}.
2 John 1:1- : 1 The elder{G4245} unto the elect{G1588} lady{G2959} and{G2532} her{G846} children{G5043}, whom{G3739} I{G1473} love{G25}{(G5719)} in{G1722} the truth{G225}; and{G2532} not{G3756} I{G1473} only{G3441}, but{G235} also{G2532} all{G3956} they that have known{G1097}{(G5761)} the truth{G225}; 2 For{G1223} the truth's sake{G225}, which{G3588} dwelleth{G3306}{(G5723)} in{G1722} us{G2254}, and{G2532} shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} with{G3326} us{G2257} for{G1519} ever{G165}. 3 Grace{G5485} be{G2071}{(G5704)} with{G3326} you{G5216}, mercy{G1656}, and peace{G1515}, from{G3844} God{G2316} the Father{G3962}, and{G2532} from{G3844} the Lord{G2962} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547}, the Son{G5207} of the Father{G3962}, in{G1722} truth{G225} and{G2532} love{G26}. 4 I rejoiced{G5463}{(G5644)} greatly{G3029} that{G3754} I found{G2147}{(G5758)} of{G1537} thy{G4675} children{G5043} walking{G4043}{(G5723)} in{G1722} truth{G225}, as{G2531} we have received{G2983}{(G5627)} a commandment{G1785} from{G3844} the Father{G3962}. 5 And{G2532} now{G3568} I beseech{G2065}{(G5719)} thee{G4571}, lady{G2959}, not{G3756} as though{G5613} I wrote{G1125}{(G5719)}{(G5625)}{G1125}{(G5723)} a new{G2537} commandment{G1785} unto thee{G4671}, but{G235} that which{G3739} we had{G2192}{(G5707)} from{G575} the beginning{G746}, that{G2443} we love{G25}{(G5725)} one another{G240}. 6 And{G2532} this{G3778} is{G2076}{(G5748)} love{G26}, that{G2443} we walk{G4043}{(G5725)} after{G2596} his{G846} commandments{G1785}. This{G3778} is{G2076}{(G5748)} the commandment{G1785}, That{G2443}, as{G2531} ye have heard{G191}{(G5656)} from{G575} the beginning{G746}, ye should walk{G4043}{(G5725)} in{G1722} it{G846}. 7 For{G3754} many{G4183} deceivers{G4108} are entered{G1525}{(G5627)} into{G1519} the world{G2889}, who{G3588} confess{G3670}{(G5723)} not{G3361} that Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547} is come{G2064}{(G5740)} in{G1722} the flesh{G4561}. This{G3778} is{G2076}{(G5748)} a deceiver{G4108} and{G2532} an antichrist{G500}. 8 Look{G991}{(G5720)} to yourselves{G1438}, that{G3363} we lose{G622}{(G5661)} not{G3363} those things which{G3739} we have wrought{G2038}{(G5662)}, but{G235} that we receive{G618}{(G5632)} a full{G4134} reward{G3408}. 9 Whosoever{G3956} transgresseth{G3845}{(G5723)}, and{G2532} abideth{G3306}{(G5723)} not{G3361} in{G1722} the doctrine{G1322} of Christ{G5547}, hath{G2192}{(G5719)} not{G3756} God{G2316}. He that abideth{G3306}{(G5723)} in{G1722} the doctrine{G1322} of Christ{G5547}, he{G3778} hath{G2192}{(G5719)} both{G2532} the Father{G3962} and{G2532} the Son{G5207}. 10 If{G1536} there come{G2064}{(G5736)} any{G1536}{G5100} unto{G4314} you{G5209}, and{G2532} bring{G5342}{(G5719)} not{G3756} this{G5026} doctrine{G1322}, receive{G2983}{(G5720)} him{G846} not{G3361} into{G1519} your house{G3614}, neither{G2532}{G3361} bid{G3004}{(G5720)} him{G846} God speed{G5463}{(G5721)}: 11 For{G1063} he that biddeth{G3004}{(G5723)} him{G846} God speed{G5463}{(G5721)} is partaker{G2841}{(G5719)} of his{G846} evil{G4190} deeds{G2041}. 12 Having{G2192}{(G5723)} many things{G4183} to write{G1125}{(G5721)} unto you{G5213}, I would{G1014}{(G5675)} not{G3756} write with{G1223} paper{G5489} and{G2532} ink{G3188}: but{G235} I trust{G1679}{(G5719)} to come{G2064}{(G5629)} unto{G4314} you{G5209}, and{G2532} speak{G2980}{(G5658)} face{G4750} to{G4314} face{G4750}, that{G2443} our{G2257} joy{G5479} may be{G5600}{(G5753)} full{G4137}{(G5772)}. 13 The children{G5043} of thy{G4675} elect{G1588} sister{G79} greet{G782}{(G5736)} thee{G4571}. Amen{G281}. 1 The elder{G4245} unto the wellbeloved{G27} Gaius{G1050}, whom{G3739} I{G1473} love{G25}{(G5719)} in{G1722} the truth{G225}. 2 Beloved{G27}, I wish{G2172}{(G5736)} above{G4012} all things{G3956} that thou{G4571} mayest prosper{G2137}{(G5745)} and{G2532} be in health{G5198}{(G5721)}, even as{G2531} thy{G4675} soul{G5590} prospereth{G2137}{(G5743)}. 3 For{G1063} I rejoiced{G5463}{(G5644)} greatly{G3029}, when the brethren{G80} came{G2064}{(G5740)} and{G2532} testified{G3140}{(G5723)} of the truth{G225} that is in thee{G4675}, even as{G2531} thou{G4771} walkest{G4043}{(G5719)} in{G1722} the truth{G225}. 4 I have{G2192}{(G5719)} no{G3756} greater{G3186}{G5130} joy{G5479} than to{G2443} hear{G191}{(G5725)} that my{G1699} children{G5043} walk{G4043}{(G5723)} in{G1722} truth{G225}. 5 Beloved{G27}, thou doest{G4160}{(G5719)} faithfully{G4103} whatsoever{G3739}{G1437} thou doest{G2038}{(G5667)} to{G1519} the brethren{G80}, and{G2532} to{G1519} strangers{G3581}; 6 Which{G3739} have borne witness{G3140}{(G5656)} of thy{G4675} charity{G26} before{G1799} the church{G1577}: whom{G3739} if thou bring forward on their journey{G4311}{(G5660)} after{G516} a godly{G2316} sort{G516}, thou shalt do{G4160}{(G5692)} well{G2573}: 7 Because that{G1063} for{G5228} his{G846} name's{G3686} sake{G5228} they went forth{G1831}{(G5627)}, taking{G2983}{(G5723)} nothing{G3367} of{G575} the Gentiles{G1484}. 8 We{G2249} therefore{G3767} ought{G3784}{(G5719)} to receive{G618}{(G5721)} such{G5108}, that{G2443} we might be{G1096}{(G5741)} fellowhelpers{G4904} to the truth{G225}. 9 I wrote{G1125}{(G5656)} unto the church{G1577}: but{G235} Diotrephes{G1361}, who{G3588} loveth to have the preeminence{G5383}{(G5723)} among them{G846}, receiveth{G1926}{(G5736)} us{G2248} not{G3756}. 10 Wherefore{G1223}{G5124}, if{G1437} I come{G2064}{(G5632)}, I will remember{G5279}{(G5692)} his{G846} deeds{G2041} which{G3739} he doeth{G4160}{(G5719)}, prating against{G5396}{(G5723)} us{G2248} with malicious{G4190} words{G3056}: and{G2532} not{G3361} content{G714}{(G5746)} therewith{G1909}{G5125}, neither{G3777} doth{G1926} he himself{G846} receive{G1926}{(G5736)} the brethren{G80}, and{G2532} forbiddeth{G2967}{(G5719)} them that would{G1014}{(G5740)}, and{G2532} casteth{G1544}{(G5719)} them out of{G1537} the church{G1577}. 11 Beloved{G27}, follow{G3401}{(G5737)} not{G3361} that which is evil{G2556}, but{G235} that which is good{G18}. He that doeth good{G15}{(G5723)} is{G2076}{(G5748)} of{G1537} God{G2316}: but{G1161} he that doeth evil{G2554}{(G5723)} hath{G3708} not{G3756} seen{G3708}{(G5758)} God{G2316}. 12 Demetrius{G1216} hath good report{G3140}{(G5769)} of{G5259} all{G3956} men, and{G2532} of{G5259} the truth{G225} itself{G846}: yea{G1161}, and{G2532} we{G2249} also bear record{G3140}{(G5719)}; and{G2532} ye know{G1492}{(G5758)} that{G3754} our{G2257} record{G3141} is{G2076}{(G5748)} true{G227}. 13 I had{G2192}{(G5707)} many things{G4183} to write{G1125}{(G5721)}, but{G235} I will{G2309}{(G5719)} not{G3756} with{G1223} ink{G3188} and{G2532} pen{G2563} write{G1125}{(G5658)} unto thee{G4671}: 14 But{G1161} I trust{G1679}{(G5719)} I shall{G1492} shortly{G2112} see{G1492}{(G5629)} thee{G4571}, and{G2532} we shall speak{G2980}{(G5692)} face{G4750} to{G4314} face{G4750}. Peace{G1515} be to thee{G4671}. Our friends{G5384} salute{G782}{(G5736)} thee{G4571}. Greet{G782}{(G5737)} the friends{G5384} by{G2596} name{G3686}.
