beloved, concerning
all things I
desire
thee
to
prosper ,
and to
be in health, even as thy soul doth
prosper,
Beloved, I
wish
above
all things that
thou
mayest
prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

, brethren coming
and testifying
of the truth in thee, even as thou in truth dost
walk;
For I rejoiced greatly
, when
the
brethren came
and testified
of the truth that
is

in the
truth .

than
these
things
I have no joy ,
that
I
may
hear of
my children in truth walking
.

Beloved, faithfully
dost
thou do
whatever
thou mayest
work
to the brethren and to the
strangers ,
Beloved, thou doest
faithfully
whatsoever
thou doest
to the brethren ,
and to strangers ;
who
did
testify
of thy love
before an
assembly,
whom thou wilt
do
well,
having
sent
forward worthily
of
God
,
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:
because for `
His '
name
they went forth, nothing receiving
from
the nations;
Because that
for his name's
sake
they went forth, taking
nothing of
the Gentiles.
we ,
then,
ought to receive such, that fellow-workers
we may
become
to the truth.

ought to receive such, that we might
be
fellowhelpers
to the truth.
I did
write
to
the assembly,
but he
who is
loving
the first
place
among them --
Diotrephes
--
doth
not
receive
us ;
I wrote
unto
the church:
but Diotrephes,
who loveth
to
have
the preeminence
among them ,
receiveth
us not.
because
of
this
, if I may
come, I will cause
him
to
remember his works
that
he doth
, with
evil
words
prating against us ;
and not content with
these
, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and those
intending
he
doth
forbid
, and out of the assembly
he
doth
cast
.
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
.
Beloved, be
not thou
following
that which is evil, but that which is good ;
he who
is
doing
good ,
of God he
is,
and
he who
is
doing
evil hath not seen God ;
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 .
to
Demetrius testimony
hath been
given
by
all, and by
the truth itself, and we also --
we
do
testify,
and ye have
known
that our testimony
is true.
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.
Many
things
I had to write, but I do
not wish
through
ink and pen to
write to
thee ,
I had many
things
to write, but I will
not with
ink and pen write unto
thee :
and
I hope
straightway
to
see thee, and mouth
to
mouth
we shall speak. Peace to thee !
salute thee do
the
friends;
be
saluting
the friends by name.
But
I trust
I
shall
shortly
see thee, and we shall speak face
to
face
. Peace be
to thee .
Our
friends
salute thee .
Greet
the friends by name.
