2 John 1

1The elderG4245 unto the electG1588 ladyG2959 andG2532 herG846 childrenG3588G5043, whomG3739 IG1473 loveG25 inG1722 the truthG225; andG2532 notG3756 IG1473 onlyG3441, butG235 alsoG2532 allG3956 they that have knownG1097 the truthG3588G225; 2ForG1223 the truth’s sakeG3588G225, whichG3588 dwellethG3306 inG1722 usG1473, andG2532 shall beG1510 withG3326 usG1473 forG1519 everG3588G165. 3GraceG5485 beG1510 withG3326 youG1473, mercyG1656, and peaceG1515, fromG3844 GodG2316 the FatherG3962, andG2532 fromG3844 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the SonG3588G5207 of the FatherG3588G3962, inG1722 truthG225 andG2532 loveG26. 4I rejoicedG5463 greatlyG3029 thatG3754 I foundG2147 ofG1537 thyG4771 childrenG3588G5043 walkingG4043 inG1722 truthG225, asG2531 we have receivedG2983 a commandmentG1785 fromG3844 the FatherG3588G3962.

5AndG2532 nowG3568 I beseechG2065 theeG4771, ladyG2959, notG3756 asG5613 though I wroteG1125 a newG2537 commandmentG1785 unto theeG4771, butG235 thatG2443 whichG3739 we hadG2192 fromG575 the beginningG746, thatG2443 we loveG25 one anotherG240. 6AndG2532 thisG3778 isG1510 loveG3588G26, thatG2443 we walkG4043 afterG2596 hisG846 commandmentsG3588G1785. ThisG3778 isG1510 the commandmentG3588G1785, ThatG2443, asG2531 ye have heardG191 fromG575 the beginningG746, ye should walkG4043 inG1722 itG846. 7ForG3754 manyG4183 deceiversG4108 are enteredG1525 intoG1519 the worldG3588G2889, who confessG3670 notG3361 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is comeG2064 inG1722 the fleshG4561. ThisG3778 isG1510 a deceiverG4108 andG2532 an antichristG3588G500. 8LookG991 to yourselvesG1438, thatG2443 we loseG622 notG3361 those things whichG3739 we have wroughtG2038, butG235 that we receiveG618 aG3408 fullG4134 rewardG3408. 9WhosoeverG3956 transgressethG3845, andG2532 abidethG3306 notG3361 inG1722 the doctrineG3588G1322 of ChristG3588G5547, hathG2192 notG3756 GodG2316. He that abidethG3306 inG1722 the doctrineG3588G1322 of ChristG3588G5547, heG3778 hathG2192 bothG2532 the FatherG3588G3962 andG2532 the SonG3588G5207.

10IfG1487 there comeG2064 anyG5100 untoG4314 youG4771, andG2532 bringG5342 notG3756 thisG3778 doctrineG3588G1322, receiveG2983 himG846 notG3361 intoG1519 your houseG3614, neitherG3361 bidG3004 himG846 God speedG5463: 11ForG1063 he that biddethG3004 himG846 God speedG5463 is partakerG2841 ofG3588G2041 hisG846 evilG3588G4190 deedsG3588G2041.

12HavingG2192 manyG4183 things to writeG1125 unto youG4771, I wouldG1014 notG3756 write withG1223 paperG5489 andG2532 inkG3188: butG235 I trustG1679 to comeG2064 untoG4314 youG4771, andG2532 speakG2980 faceG4750 toG4314 faceG4750, thatG2443 ourG1473 joyG3588G5479 may beG1510 fullG4137. 13The childrenG3588G5043 ofG3588G79 thyG4771 electG3588G1588 sisterG3588G79 greetG782 theeG4771. AmenG281.
