Chapter 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.

1 The3588 elder4245 unto the elect1588 lady2959 and2532 her848 children,5043 whom3739 I1473 love25 in1722 the truth;225 and2532 not3756 I1473 only,3441 but235 also2532 all3956 they that have known1097 the3588 truth;225

2 For the truth's sake,1223 3588 225 which dwelleth3306 in1722 us,2254 and2532 shall be2071 with3326 us2257 forever.1519 165

3 Grace5485 be2071 with3326 you,5216 mercy,1656 and peace,1515 from3844 God2316 the Father,3962 and2532 from3844 the Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ,5547 the3588 Son5207 of the3588 Father,3962 in1722 truth225 and2532 love.26

4 I rejoiced5463 greatly3029 that3754 I found2147 of1537 thy4675 children5043 walking4043 in1722 truth,225 as2531 we have received2983 a commandment1785 from3844 the3588 Father.3962

5 And2532 now3568 I beseech2065 thee,4571 lady,2959 not3756 as though5613 I wrote1125 a new2537 commandment1785 unto thee,4671 but235 that which3739 we had2192 from575 the beginning,746 that2443 we love25 one another.240

6 And2532 this3778 is2076 love,26 that2443 we walk4043 after2596 his848 commandments.1785 This3778 is2076 the3588 commandment,1785 That,2443 as2531 ye have heard191 from575 the beginning,746 ye should walk4043 in1722 it.846

7 For3754 many4183 deceivers4108 are entered1525 into1519 the3588 world,2889 who confess3670 not3361 that Jesus2424 Christ5547 is come2064 in1722 the flesh.4561 This3778 is2076 a deceiver4108 and2532 an antichrist.500

8 Look to991 yourselves,1438 that2443 we lose622 not3361 those things which3739 we have wrought,2038 but235 that we receive618 a full4134 reward.3408

9 Whosoever3956 transgresseth,3845 and2532 abideth3306 not3361 in1722 the3588 doctrine1322 of Christ,5547 hath2192 not3756 God.2316 He that abideth3306 in1722 the3588 doctrine1322 of Christ,5547 he3778 hath2192 both2532 the3588 Father3962 and2532 the3588 Son.5207

10 If there come any1536 2064 unto4314 you,5209 and2532 bring5342 not3756 this5026 doctrine,1322 receive2983 him846 not3361 into1519 your house,3614 neither2532 3361 bid3004 him846 Godspeed: 5463

11 For1063 he that biddeth3004 him846 Godspeed5463 is partaker2841 of his848 evil4190 deeds.2041

12 Having2192 many things4183 to write1125 unto you,5213 I would1014 not3756 write with1223 paper5489 and2532 ink:3188 but235 I trust1679 to come2064 unto4314 you,5209 and2532 speak2980 face to face,4750 4314 4750 that2443 our2257 joy5479 may be5600 full.4137

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,

1 The3588 elder4245 unto the elect1588 lady2959 and2532 her848 children,5043 whom3739 I1473 love25 in1722 the truth;225 and2532 not3756 I1473 only,3441 but235 also2532 all3956 they that have known1097 the3588 truth;225

2 For the sake of the truth which dwells in us and is with us for ever,

2 For the truth's sake,1223 3588 225 which dwelleth3306 in1722 us,2254 and2532 shall be2071 with3326 us2257 forever.1519 165

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.

3 Grace5485 be2071 with3326 you,5216 mercy,1656 and peace,1515 from3844 God2316 the Father,3962 and2532 from3844 the Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ,5547 the3588 Son5207 of the3588 Father,3962 in1722 truth225 and2532 love.26

4 I rejoiced greatly that I found some of your children living in the truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.

4 I rejoiced5463 greatly3029 that3754 I found2147 of1537 thy4675 children5043 walking4043 in1722 truth,225 as2531 we have received2983 a commandment1785 from3844 the3588 Father.3962

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.

5 And2532 now3568 I beseech2065 thee,4571 lady,2959 not3756 as though5613 I wrote1125 a new2537 commandment1785 unto thee,4671 but235 that which3739 we had2192 from575 the beginning,746 that2443 we love25 one another.240

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.

6 And2532 this3778 is2076 love,26 that2443 we walk4043 after2596 his848 commandments.1785 This3778 is2076 the3588 commandment,1785 That,2443 as2531 ye have heard191 from575 the beginning,746 ye should walk4043 in1722 it.846

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.

7 For3754 many4183 deceivers4108 are entered1525 into1519 the3588 world,2889 who confess3670 not3361 that Jesus2424 Christ5547 is come2064 in1722 the flesh.4561 This3778 is2076 a deceiver4108 and2532 an antichrist.500

8 Look to yourselves, that you lose not those things which you have accomplished, but that you receive a full reward.

8 Look to991 yourselves,1438 that2443 we lose622 not3361 those things which3739 we have wrought,2038 but235 that we receive618 a full4134 reward.3408

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.

9 Whosoever3956 transgresseth,3845 and2532 abideth3306 not3361 in1722 the3588 doctrine1322 of Christ,5547 hath2192 not3756 God.2316 He that abideth3306 in1722 the3588 doctrine1322 of Christ,5547 he3778 hath2192 both2532 the3588 Father3962 and2532 the3588 Son.5207

10 If anyone comes to you, and does not bring this doctrine, do not welcome him to your house, neither bid him to eat:

10 If there come any1536 2064 unto4314 you,5209 and2532 bring5342 not3756 this5026 doctrine,1322 receive2983 him846 not3361 into1519 your house,3614 neither2532 3361 bid3004 him846 Godspeed: 5463

11 For he who bids him to eat is partaker of his evil works.

11 For1063 he that biddeth3004 him846 Godspeed5463 is partaker2841 of his848 evil4190 deeds.2041

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.

12 Having2192 many things4183 to write1125 unto you,5213 I would1014 not3756 write with1223 paper5489 and2532 ink:3188 but235 I trust1679 to come2064 unto4314 you,5209 and2532 speak2980 face to face,4750 4314 4750 that2443 our2257 joy5479 may be5600 full.4137

13 The children of your elect sister Church greet you. Grace be with you. Amen.

13 The3588 children5043 of thy4675 elect1588 sister79 greet782 thee.4571 Amen.281
