| 2 JohnChapter 1 | 
| 1 THE minister, to the mother church, and her children, those whom I love in the truth, and not I only, but also all those who have known the truth, | 
| 2 For the sake of the truth which dwells in us and is with us for ever, | 
| 3 Grace be with us, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the LORD Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. | 
| 4 I rejoiced greatly that I found some of your children living in the truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father. | 
| 5 And now I beseech you, O mother church, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. | 
| 6 And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should follow it. | 
| 7 For many deceivers have appeared in the world, who do not acknowledge that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Such a person is a deceiver and an antichrist. | 
| 8 Look to yourselves, that you lose not those things which you have accomplished, but that you receive a full reward. | 
| 9 Whosoever transgresses, and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. He who abides in His doctrine, has both the Father and the Son. | 
| 10 If anyone comes to you, and does not bring this doctrine, do not welcome him to your house, neither bid him to eat: | 
| 11 For he who bids him to eat is partaker of his evil works. | 
| 12 I have many things to say to you, which I do not want to write with paper and ink: but I trust to come to you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full. | 
| 13 The children of your elect sister Church greet you. Grace be with you. Amen. |
