Walking in the Truth
1 The elder G4245 to the beloved G27 Gaius G1050, whom G3739 I love G25 in truth G225.
2 Beloved G27, I pray G2172 that in all G3956 respects G3956 you may prosper G2137 and be in good G5198 health G5198, just G2531 as your soul G5590 prospers G2137.
3 For I rejoiced G5463 greatly G3029 when brothers G80 came G2064 and bore G3140 witness G3140 to your truth G225, that is, how G2531 you are walking G4043 in truth G225. 4 I have G2192 no G3756 greater G3173 joy G5479 than [fn]this G3778, to hear G191 that my children G5043 are walking G4043 in the truth G225.
5 Beloved G27, you are acting G4160 faithfully G4103 in whatever G3739 G1437 [fn]work G2038 you do G2038 for the brothers G80, and are doing this G3778 though they are strangers G3581; 6 and they bore G3140 witness G3140 to your love G26 before G1799 the church G1577. You will do G4160 well G2573 to send G4311 them on G4311 their way G4311 in G516 a G516 manner G516 worthy G516 of God G2316. 7 For they went G1831 out G1831 for G5228 the G5228 sake G5228 of the Name G3686, receiving G2983 nothing G3367 from the Gentiles G1482. 8 Therefore G3767 we ought G3784 to [fn]support G5274 such G5108 men G5108, so G2443 that we may [fn]be fellow G4904 workers G4904 [fn]with the truth G225.
9 I wrote G1125 something G5100 to the church G1577, but Diotrephes G1361, who loves G5383 to G5383 be G5383 first G5383 among them, does not welcome G1926 [fn]what we say G1473. 10 For this G3778 reason G1223, if G1437 I come G2064, I will bring G5279 to remembrance G5279 his deeds G2041 which G3739 he does G4160, unjustly G5396 disparaging G5396 us with wicked G4190 words G3056. And not satisfied G714 with this G3778, he himself G846 does not welcome G1926 the brothers G80 either G3777, and he forbids G2967 those G3588 who want G1014 to do so and puts G1544 them out G1544 of the church G1577.
11 Beloved G27, do not imitate G3401 what G2556 is G2556 evil G2556, but what G18 is G18 good G18. The one who does G15 good G15 is of God G2316; the one who does G2554 evil G2554 has not seen G3708 God G2316. 12 Demetrius G1216 has received G3140 a G3140 good witness G3140 from everyone G3956, and from the truth G225 itself G846; and we add G3140 our witness G3140, and you know G6063 that our witness G3141 is true G227.
13 I had G2192 many G4183 things G4183 to write G1125 to you, but I am G2309 not willing G2309 to write G1125 them to you with pen G2563 and ink G3189; 14 but I hope G1679 to see G3708 you shortly G2112, and we will speak G2980 face G4750 to face G4750.
15 Peace G1515 be to you. The friends G5384 greet G782 you. Greet G782 the friends G5384 by name G3686.
