2 John Chapter 1

American Standard

   1: The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not I only, but also all they that know the truth;
   2: for the truth's sake which abideth in us, and it shall be with us for ever:
   3: Grace, mercy, peace shall be with us, from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
   4: I rejoice greatly that I have found [certain] of thy children walking in truth, even as we received commandment from the Father.
   5: And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote to thee a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
   6: And this is love, that we should walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, even as ye heard from the beginning, that ye should walk in it.
   7: For many deceivers are gone forth into the world, [even] they that confess not that Jesus Christ cometh in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
   8: Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which we have wrought, but that ye receive a full reward.
   9: Whosoever goeth onward and abideth not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God: he that abideth in the teaching, the same hath both the Father and the Son.
   10: If any one cometh unto you, and bringeth not this teaching, receive him not into [your] house, and give him no greeting:
   11: for he that giveth him greeting partaketh in his evil works.
   12: Having many things to write unto you, I would not [write them] with paper and ink: but I hope to come unto you, and to speak face to face, that your joy may be made full.
   13: The children of thine elect sister salute thee.
