2 John 1

1 He exhorteth a certain honourable matron, and her children, to persevere in Christian love and belief, 8 lest they lose the reward of their former profession: 10 and to have nothing to do with those seducers that bring not the true doctrine of Christ Jesus.

 1:1 ¶ The x3588 elder 4245 unto the elect 1588 lady 2959 and 2532 her y846 x848 children, 5043 whom 3739 I 1473 love 25 z5719 in 1722 the truth; 225 and 2532 not 3756 I 1473 only, 3441 but 235 also 2532 all 3956 they that have known 1097 z5761 the x3588 truth; 225

 1:2 For y1223 the truth's sake, 225 x1223 x3588 which y3588 dwelleth 3306 z5723 in 1722 us, 2254 and 2532 shall be 2071 z5704 with 3326 us 2257 forever. 165 1519

 1:3 Grace 5485 be 2071 z5704 with 3326 you, 5216 mercy, 1656 [and] peace, 1515 from 3844 God 2316 the Father, 3962 and 2532 from 3844 the Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547 the x3588 Son 5207 of the x3588 Father, 3962 in 1722 truth 225 and 2532 love. 26

 1:4 I rejoiced 5463 z5644 greatly 3029 that 3754 I found 2147 z5758 of 1537 thy 4675 children 5043 walking 4043 z5723 in 1722 truth, 225 as 2531 we have received 2983 z5627 a commandment 1785 from 3844 the x3588 Father. 3962

 1:5 And 2532 now 3568 I beseech 2065 z5719 thee, 4571 lady, 2959 not 3756 as though 5613 I wrote 1125 z5719 z5625 z5723 a new 2537 commandment 1785 unto thee, 4671 but 235 that which 3739 we had 2192 z5707 from 575 the beginning, 746 that 2443 we love 25 z5725 one another. 240

 1:6 And 2532 this 3778 is 2076 z5748 love, 26 that 2443 we walk 4043 z5725 after 2596 his y846 x848 commandments. 1785 This 3778 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 commandment, 1785 That, 2443 as 2531 ye have heard 191 z5656 from 575 the beginning, 746 ye should walk 4043 z5725 in 1722 it. 846

 1:7 For 3754 many 4183 deceivers 4108 are entered 1525 z5627 into 1519 the x3588 world, 2889 who y3588 confess 3670 z5723 not 3361 that Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 is come 2064 z5740 in 1722 the flesh. 4561 This 3778 is 2076 z5748 a deceiver 4108 and 2532 an antichrist. 500

 1:8 Look y991 z5720 to x991 yourselves, 1438 that y3363 z0 x2443 we lose 622 z5661 not y3363 x3361 those things which 3739 we have wrought, 2038 z5662 but 235 that we receive 618 z5632 a full 4134 reward. 3408

 1:9 Whosoever 3956 transgresseth, 3845 z5723 and 2532 abideth 3306 z5723 not 3361 in 1722 the x3588 doctrine 1322 of Christ, 5547 hath 2192 z5719 not 3756 God. 2316 He that abideth 3306 z5723 in 1722 the x3588 doctrine 1322 of Christ, 5547 he 3778 hath 2192 z5719 both 2532 the x3588 Father 3962 and 2532 the x3588 Son. 5207

 1:10 If y1536 z0 there come y2064 z5736 any 1536 y5100 x2064 unto 4314 you, 5209 and 2532 bring 5342 z5719 not 3756 this 5026 doctrine, 1322 receive 2983 z5720 him 846 not 3361 into 1519 [your] house, 3614 neither 2532 3361 bid 3004 z5720 him 846 Godspeed: 5463 z5721

 1:11 For 1063 he that biddeth 3004 z5723 him 846 Godspeed 5463 z5721 is partaker 2841 z5719 of his y846 x848 evil 4190 deeds. 2041

 1:12 Having 2192 z5723 many things 4183 to write 1125 z5721 unto you, 5213 I would 1014 z5675 not 3756 [write] with 1223 paper 5489 and 2532 ink: 3188 but 235 I trust 1679 z5719 to come 2064 z5629 unto 4314 you, 5209 and 2532 speak 2980 z5658 face y4750 to y4314 face, 4750 x4314 that 2443 our 2257 joy 5479 may be 5600 z5753 full. 4137 z5772

 1:13 The x3588 children 5043 of thy 4675 elect 1588 sister 79 greet 782 z5736 thee. 4571 Amen. 281
