\v 1 The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth—and not only I, but also all the ones having known the truth—
|
|
\v 2 because of the truth that remains in us and will be with us to eternity.
|
|
\v 3 Grace, mercy, \add and\add* peace will be with us from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
|
|
\p
|
|
\v 4 I rejoiced greatly that I found some of your children walking in truth, just as we have received a commandment from the Father.
|
|
\v 5 And now I ask you, lady—not as writing a new commandment to you, but what we have had from the beginning—that we should love one another.
|
|
\v 6 And this is that love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, just as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
|
|
\v 7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, the ones not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
|
|
\v 8 Watch yourselves, that you do not lose what we have worked for, but may receive a full reward.
|
|
\v 9 Everyone going beyond and not remaining in the teaching of Christ does not have God. The one remaining in the teaching, this one has both the Father and the Son.
|
|
\v 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house and do not say to him, “Greetings.”
|
|
\v 11 For the one saying to him, “Greetings,” shares in his evil deeds.
|
|
\p
|
|
\v 12 Having much to write to you, I did not want with paper and ink. However, I hope to come to you and to speak mouth to mouth, so that your joy might be made complete.
|
|
\v 13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. |
