THE THIRD EPISTLE OF JOHN.
1 The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in
truth.
2 Beloved, I note earnestly pray, that thou
mayst prosper and be in health, as thy soul
prospereth.
3 For I greatly rejoiced, when the brethren
came, and bore testimony to thy truth, even as thou
walkest in truth.
4 And I have no greater joy than note to
hear that my children walk in the truth.
5 Beloved, thou actest faithfully in whatsoever note service
thou dost to the brethren, and to strangers too;
6 who
have borne witness to thy love before the church: whom
thou wilt do well in forwarding, note as is worthy of God.
7 For they went forth for his name's sake, taking nothing
of the gentiles.
8 We ought therefore to receive
such, that we may become fellow-laborers in the truth.
9 I wrote to the church: but Diotrephes, who affects
the pre-eminence among them, doth not receive us.
10 Therefore note when I come, I will remember his deeds,
note prating against us with wicked words: and not content
with these, he neither receiveth the brethren himself,
note nor suffers those that would; and casteth them out of
the church.
11 Beloved, do not thou follow that which is
evil, but that which is good. He that doth good is of
God: but he, that doth evil, hath not seen God.
12 A
good testimony is borne to Demetrius by all men, and by
the truth itself: yea, and we also bear him like witness,
and ye know that our testimony is true.
13 I had many things to write: but I would not write to
thee with note pen and ink;
14 note for I hope to see thee soon, and
we shall speak mouth to mouth.
15 Peace be to thee. Our
friends salute thee. Salute the friends by name.
