{\MT Yochanan’s Third Letter

\par }\OneChap {\PP \VerseOne{1}The
elder
to
Gaius
the
beloved,
whom
I
love
in
truth.
\par }{\PP \VS{2}Beloved,
I
pray
that
you
may
prosper
in
all
things
and
be healthy,
even
as
your
soul
prospers.
\VS{3}For
I
rejoiced
greatly
when
brothers
came
and
testified
about
your
truth,
even
as
you
walk
in
truth.
\VS{4}I
have
no
greater
joy
than
this:
to
hear
about
my
children
walking
in
truth.
\par }{\PP \VS{5}Beloved,
you
do
a
faithful
work
in
whatever
you
accomplish
for
those
who
are
brothers
and
strangers.
\VS{6}They
have
testified
about
your
love
before
the
assembly.
You
will
do
well
to
send
them forward
on
their
journey
in
a
way
worthy
of
God,
\VS{7}because
for
the
sake
of
the
Name
they
went
out,
taking
nothing
from
the
Gentiles.
\VS{8}We
therefore
ought
to receive
such,
that
we
may
be
fellow
workers
for
the
truth.
\par }{\PP \VS{9}I
wrote
to
the
assembly,
but
Diotrephes,
who
loves
to
be
first amongst
them,
doesn’t
accept
what
we
say.
\VS{10}Therefore,
if
I
come,
I
will
call
attention
to
his
deeds
which
he
does,
unjustly
accusing
us
with
wicked
words.
Not
content
with
this,
he
doesn’t
receive
the
brothers
himself,
and
those
who
would,
he
forbids
and
throws
out
of
the
assembly.
\par }{\PP \VS{11}Beloved,
don’t
imitate
that
which
is
evil,
but
that
which
is
good.
He
who
does
good
is
of
God.
He
who
does
evil
hasn’t
seen
God.
\VS{12}Demetrius
has
the
testimony
of
all,
and
of
the
truth
itself;
yes,
we
also
testify,
and
you
know
that
our
testimony
is
true.
\par }{\PP \VS{13}I
had
many
things
to
write
to
you,
but
I
am unwilling
to
write
to
you
with
ink
and
pen;
\VS{14}but
I
hope
to
see
you soon.
Then
we
will
speak
face
to
face.
\par }{\PP Peace
be
to
you.
The friends greet
you. Greet
the friends
by name.
