| 2nd John 1:1 | I, a ruler in the church, send word to the noble sister who is of God's selection, and to her children, for whom I have true love; and not only I, but all who have knowledge of what is true; | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:2 | Because of this true knowledge which is in us, and will be with us for ever: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:3 | May grace, mercy, and peace be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in all true love. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:4 | It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:5 | And now, my sister, I make a request to you, not sending you a new law, but the law which we had from the first, that we have love for one another. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:6 | And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:7 | Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:8 | Keep watch over yourselves, so that you do not make our work of no effect, but may get your full reward. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:9 | Anyone who goes on and does not keep to the teaching of Christ, has not God: he who keeps to the teaching has the Father and the Son. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:10 | If anyone comes to you not having this teaching, do not take him into your house or give him words of love: | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:11 | For he who gives him words of love has a part in his evil works. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:12 | Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full. | |||||||||||||||
| 2nd John 1:13 | The children of your noble sister, who is of God's selection, send you their love. | |||||||||||||||
