2 John 1
1 I, a ruler in the church, send word to the noble sister who is of God's selection, and to her children, for whom I have true love; and not only I, but all who have knowledge of what is true;
The elder To [the] elect lady and to the children of her whom I myself love in truth, and not I myself only, but also all those already knowing the truth —
because of the truth which is abiding in us and with us that will be to the age: (aiōn g165)
3 May grace, mercy, and peace be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in all true love.
Will be with us grace mercy [and] peace from God [the] Father and from (Lord *K*) Jesus Christ the Son of the Father in truth and love.
4 It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.
I rejoiced exceedingly that I have found [some] of the children of you walking in truth even as commandment we received from the Father.
5 And now, my sister, I make a request to you, not sending you a new law, but the law which we had from the first, that we have love for one another.
And now I implore you, lady, not as a commandment new I am writing to you but that which we have had from [the] beginning, that we may love one another.
6 And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it.
And this is love that we may walk according to the commandments of Him. This the commandment is even as you have heard from [the] beginning, so that in it you may walk;
7 Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist.
For many deceivers (have gone out *N(K)O*) into the world, those not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh; This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
8 Keep watch over yourselves, so that you do not make our work of no effect, but may get your full reward.
do watch yourselves so that not (you may lose *N(K)O*) what things (we have worked for, *NK(O)*) but a reward full (you may receive. *N(K)O*)
9 Anyone who goes on and does not keep to the teaching of Christ, has not God: he who keeps to the teaching has the Father and the Son.
Anyone who (is progressing *N(K)O*) and not abiding in the teaching of Christ God not has; The [one] abiding in the teaching (of the Christ *K*) this [one] both the Father and the Son has.
10 If anyone comes to you not having this teaching, do not take him into your house or give him words of love:
If anyone comes to you and this teaching not does bring, not do receive him into [the] house, and to greet him not do tell;
11 For he who gives him words of love has a part in his evil works.
the [one] telling for him to rejoice partakes in the works of him evil.
12 Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.
Many things having to you to write not I purposed with paper and ink; but I hope (to come *N(k)O*) to you and mouth to mouth to speak so that the joy (of us *NK(O)*) completed may be.
13 The children of your noble sister, who is of God's selection, send you their love.
Greet you the children of the sister of you elect (Amen. *KO*)
