1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in truth. |
2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers. |
3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3For I was very glad when brethren came and testified to your truth, that is, how you are walking in truth. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth. |
5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the brethren, and especially when they are strangers; |
6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6and 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. |
7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7For they went out for the sake of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. |
8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers with the truth. |
9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept what we say. |
10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10For 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. |
11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Beloved, 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. |
12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12Demetrius 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. |
13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13I had many things to write to you, but I am not willing to write them to you with pen and ink; |
14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14but I hope to see you shortly, and we will speak face to face. (15) Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name. |
