Diotrephes Denounced

9 I [fn]wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to put himself first, does not acknowledge us. 10 So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing and the evil accusations of nonsense that he is making against us. And he is not satisfied with that! He not only refuses to receive the brothers, but also stops those who want to do so and throws them out of the church.
