III Juan  1 King James Bible (1769) | 15 versitos |
1 The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.
4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;
6 Which have borne witness of thy charity before the church: whom if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well:
7 Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.
8 We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.
9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
10 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.
11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our record is true.
13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face.
15 Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name.

III Juan  1,1-14

Chapter I.

[Walking in trueth and loue.]
Hee commendeth Gaius for his pietie 5 and hospitalitie 7 to true preachers: 9 Complaining of the vnkind dealing of ambitious Diotrephes on the contrary side: 11 Whose euill example is not to bee followed: 12 And giueth speciall testimonie to the good report of Demetrius.
1 The Elder vnto the welbeloued Gaius, whom I loue [ Or, truely.] in the trueth:
2 Beloued, I [ Or, pray.] wish aboue all things that thou

[Walking in trueth and loue.]

mayest prosper and be in health, euen as thy soule prospereth.
3 For I reioyced greatly when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, euen as thou walkest in the trueth.
4 I haue no greater ioy, then to heare that my children walke in truth.
5 Beloued, thou doest faithfully whatsoeuer thou doest to the Brethren, and to strangers:
6 Which haue borne witnesse of thy charitie before the Church: whome if

[Called in Christ.]

thou bring forward on their iourney after a godly sort, thou shalt doe well:
7 Because that for his Names sake they went foorth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.
8 We therefore ought to receiue such, that we might be fellow helpers to the trueth.
9 I wrote vnto the Church, but Diotrephes, who loueth to haue the preeminence among them, receiueth vs not.
10 Wherefore if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against vs with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth hee himselfe receiue the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the Church.
11 Beloued, follow not that which is euill, but that which is good. He that doth good, is of God: but hee that doth euill, hath not seene God.
12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the trueth it selfe: yea, and we also beare record, and ye know that our record is true.
13 I had many things to write, but I will not with inke and pen write vnto thee.
14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and wee shall speake [ Greek: mouth to mouth.] face to face. Peace bee to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name.
