3Jo 01:01 ¶ The elder <4245> unto the wellbeloved <27> Gaius

<1050>, whom <3739> I <1473> love <25> (5719) in <1722> the

truth <225>.


3Jo 01:02  Beloved <27>, I wish <2172> (5736) above <4012> all

things <3956> that thou <4571> mayest prosper <2137> (5745) and

<2532> be in health <5198> (5721), even as <2531> thy <4675>

soul <5590> prospereth <2137> (5743).


3Jo 01:03 ¶ For <1063> I rejoiced <5463> (5644) greatly <3029>,

when the brethren <80> came <2064> (5740) and <2532> testified

<3140> (5723) of the truth <225> that is in thee <4675>, even as

<2531> thou <4771> walkest <4043> (5719) in <1722> the truth

<225>.


3Jo 01:04  I have <2192> (5719) no <3756> greater <3186> <5130>

joy <5479> than to <2443> hear <191> (5725) that my <1699>

children <5043> walk <4043> (5723) in <1722> truth <225>.


3Jo 01:05  Beloved <27>, thou doest <4160> (5719) faithfully

<4103> whatsoever <3739> <1437> thou doest <2038> (5667) to

<1519> the brethren <80>, and <2532> to <1519> strangers <3581>;


3Jo 01:06  Which <3739> have borne witness <3140> (5656) of thy

<4675> charity <26> before <1799> the church <1577>: whom <3739>

if thou bring forward on their journey <4311> (5660) after <516>

<0> a godly <2316> sort <516>, thou shalt do <4160> (5692) well

<2573>:


3Jo 01:07  Because that <1063> for <5228> <0> his <846> name’s

<3686> sake <5228> they went forth <1831> (5627), taking <2983>

(5723) nothing <3367> of <575> the Gentiles <1484>.


3Jo 01:08  We <2249> therefore <3767> ought <3784> (5719) to

receive <618> (5721) such <5108>, that <2443> we might be <1096>

(5741) fellowhelpers <4904> to the truth <225>.


3Jo 01:09 ¶ I wrote <1125> (5656) unto the church <1577>: but

<235> Diotrephes <1361>, who <3588> loveth to have the

preeminence <5383> (5723) among them <846>, receiveth <1926>

(5736) us <2248> not <3756>.


3Jo 01:10  Wherefore <1223> <5124>, if <1437> I come <2064>

(5632), I will remember <5279> (5692) his <846> deeds <2041>

which <3739> he doeth <4160> (5719), prating against <5396>

(5723) us <2248> with malicious <4190> words <3056>: and <2532>

not <3361> content <714> (5746) therewith <1909> <5125>, neither

<3777> doth <1926> <0> he himself <846> receive <1926> (5736)

the brethren <80>, and <2532> forbiddeth <2967> (5719) them that

would <1014> (5740), and <2532> casteth <1544> (5719) them out

of <1537> the church <1577>.


3Jo 01:11  Beloved <27>, follow <3401> (5737) not <3361> that

which is evil <2556>, but <235> that which is good <18>. He that

doeth good <15> (5723) is <2076> (5748) of <1537> God <2316>:

but <1161> he that doeth evil <2554> (5723) hath <3708> <0> not

<3756> seen <3708> (5758) God <2316>.


3Jo 01:12 ¶ Demetrius <1216> hath good report <3140> (5769) of

<5259> all <3956> men, and <2532> of <5259> the truth <225>

itself <846>: yea <1161>, and <2532> we <2249> also bear record

<3140> (5719); and <2532> ye know <1492> (5758) that <3754> our

<2257> record <3141> is <2076> (5748) true <227>.


3Jo 01:13  I had <2192> (5707) many things <4183> to write

<1125> (5721), but <235> I will <2309> (5719) not <3756> with

<1223> ink <3188> and <2532> pen <2563> write <1125> (5658) unto

thee <4671>:


3Jo 01:14  But <1161> I trust <1679> (5719) I shall <1492> <0>

shortly <2112> see <1492> (5629) thee <4571>, and <2532> we

shall speak <2980> (5692) face <4750> to <4314> face <4750>.

Peace <1515> be to thee <4671>. Our friends <5384> salute <782>

(5736) thee <4571>. Greet <782> (5737) the friends <5384> by

<2596> name <3686>.
