2 John 1:3-11

31GraceG5485, mercyG1656, and peaceG1515 will be with us, from GodG2316 the FatherG3962 and from JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of the FatherG3962, in truthG225 and loveG26.

42I was overjoyedG3029G5463 to findG2147 some of your childrenG5043 walkingG4043 in truthG225, justG2531 asG2531 we have receivedG2983 a commandmentG1785 to do from the FatherG3962. 5NowG3568 I askG2065 you, ladyG2959, 3not as though I were writingG1125 to you a newG2537 commandmentG1785, but the one whichG3739 we have hadG2192 4from the beginningG746, that we 5loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240. 6And 6thisG3778 is loveG26, that we walkG4043 accordingG2596 to His commandmentsG1785. ThisG3778 is the commandmentG1785, 7justG2531 asG2531 you have heardG191 8from the beginningG746, that you are to walkG4043 in it.

7For 9manyG4183 deceiversG4108 have 10goneG1831 outG1831 into the worldG2889, thoseG3588 who 11do not acknowledgeG3670 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 as comingG2064 in the fleshG4561. ThisG3778 is 12the deceiverG4108 and the 13antichristG500. 814WatchG991 yourselvesG1438, 15that you do not loseG622 whatG3739 we have accomplishedG2038, but that you may receiveG618 a fullG4134 rewardG3408. 916AnyoneG3956 who 17goesG4254 tooG4254 farG4254 and 18does not remainG3306 in the teachingG1322 of ChristG5547, does not haveG2192 GodG2316; the one who remainsG3306 in the teachingG1322 hasG2192 bothG2532 the FatherG3962 and the SonG5207. 10IfG1487 anyoneG5100 comesG2064 to you and does not bringG5342 thisG3778 teachingG1322, 19do not receiveG2983 him into your houseG3614, and do not 20giveG3004 him a greetingG5463; 11for the one who 21givesG3004 him a greetingG5463 2223participatesG2841 in his evilG4190 deedsG2041.
