1The elderG4245 unto the wellbelovedG0027 GaiusG1050, whomG3739 IG1473 loveG0025 inG1722 the truthG0225.
2BelovedG0027, I wishG2172 aboveG4012 all thingsG3956 thatG2137 thouG4571 mayest prosperG2137 andG2532 be in healthG5198, even asG2531 thyG4675 soulG5590 prosperethG2137. 3ForG1063 I rejoicedG5463 greatlyG3029, when the brethrenG0080 cameG2064 andG2532 testified ofG3140 the truthG0225 that is in theeG4675, even asG2531 thouG4771 walkestG4043 inG1722 the truthG0225. 4I haveG2192 noG3756 greaterG3186 joyG5479 thanG2443 to hearG0191 that myG1699 childrenG5043 walkG4043 inG1722 truthG0225. 5BelovedG0027, thou doestG4160 faithfullyG4103 whatsoeverG3739 thou doestG2038 toG1519 the brethrenG0080, andG2532 toG1519 strangersG3581; 6WhichG3739 have borne witnessG3140 of thyG4675 charityG0026 beforeG1799 the churchG1577: whomG3739 if thou bring forward on their journeyG4311 afterG0516 a godly sortG2316, thou shalt doG4160 wellG2573: 7Because thatG1063 forG5228 hisG0846 names sakeG3686 they went forthG1831, takingG2983 nothingG3367 ofG0575 the GentilesG1484. 8WeG2249 thereforeG3767 oughtG3784 to receiveG0618 suchG5108, thatG2443 we might beG1096 fellowhelpersG4904 to the truthG0225.
9I wrote untoG1125 the churchG1577: butG0235 DiotrephesG1361, who loveth to have the preeminenceG5383 among themG0846, receivethG1926 usG2248 notG3756. 10WhereforeG5124, ifG1437 I comeG2064, I will rememberG5279 hisG0846 deedsG2041 whichG3739 he doethG4160, prating againstG5396 usG2248 withG3056 maliciousG4190 wordsG3056: andG2532 notG3361 contentG0714 therewithG5125, neitherG3777 dothG1926 he himselfG0846 receiveG1926 the brethrenG0080, andG2532 forbiddethG2967 them that wouldG1014, andG2532 castethG1544
