THE SECOND LETTER OF
JOHN
Greeting
1 The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth—and not only I, but also all who know the truth— 2 because of the truth that abides in us and will be with us forever: 3 Grace, mercy, and peace will be with [fn]us from God the Father and from [fn]the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Walking in Truth and Love
4 I was overjoyed to find some of yoʋr children walking in the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father. 5 And now I ask yoʋ, dear lady—not as [fn]writing yoʋ a new commandment, but one we have had from the beginning—that we love one another. 6 Now this is love, that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard it from the beginning, that you should walk in it. 7 For many deceivers have [fn]come into the world, who do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist. 8 Watch yourselves, so that [fn]we do not lose what [fn]we have worked for, but may receive a full reward. 9 Everyone who [fn]transgresses and does not abide in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching [fn]of Christ has both the [fn]Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not greet him; 11 for whoever greets him takes part in his evil works.
Final Greetings
12 Although I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to come to you and speak face to face, so that [fn]our joy may be full.
