< 2 John 1 >

1 The elder to the chosen lady, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those having known the truth,
ο πρεσβυτερος εκλεκτη κυρια και τοις τεκνοις αυτης ους εγω αγαπω εν αληθεια και ουκ εγω μονος αλλα και παντες οι εγνωκοτες την αληθειαν
2 because of the truth that is remaining in us, and will be with us throughout the age, (aiōn g165)
δια την αληθειαν την μενουσαν εν ημιν και μεθ ημων εσται εις τον αιωνα (aiōn g165)
3 there will be with you grace, mercy, [and] peace from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
εσται μεθ υμων χαρις ελεος ειρηνη παρα θεου πατρος και παρα κυριου ιησου χριστου του υιου του πατρος εν αληθεια και αγαπη
4 I rejoiced exceedingly that I have found of your children walking in truth, even as we received a command from the Father;
εχαρην λιαν οτι ευρηκα εκ των τεκνων σου περιπατουντας εν αληθεια καθως εντολην ελαβομεν παρα του πατρος
5 and now I implore you, lady, not as writing to you a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,
και νυν ερωτω σε κυρια ουχ ως εντολην γραφων σοι καινην αλλα ην ειχομεν απ αρχης ινα αγαπωμεν αλληλους
6 and this is love, that we may walk according to His commands; this is the command, even as you heard from the beginning, that you may walk in it,
και αυτη εστιν η αγαπη ινα περιπατωμεν κατα τας εντολας αυτου αυτη εστιν η εντολη καθως ηκουσατε απ αρχης ινα εν αυτη περιπατητε
7 because many deceivers entered into the world, who are not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh; this one is he who is leading astray, and the antichrist.
οτι πολλοι πλανοι εισηλθον εις τον κοσμον οι μη ομολογουντες ιησουν χριστον ερχομενον εν σαρκι ουτος εστιν ο πλανος και ο αντιχριστος
8 See to yourselves that you may not lose the things that we worked for, but may receive a full reward;
βλεπετε εαυτους ινα μη απολεσωμεν α ειργασαμεθα αλλα μισθον πληρη απολαβωμεν
9 everyone who is transgressing, and is not remaining in the teaching of the Christ, does not have God; he who is remaining in the teaching of the Christ, this one has both the Father and the Son;
πας ο παραβαινων και μη μενων εν τη διδαχη του χριστου θεον ουκ εχει ο μενων εν τη διδαχη του χριστου ουτος και τον πατερα και τον υιον εχει
10 if anyone comes to you, and does not bear this teaching, do not receive him into the house, and do not say to him, “Greetings!”
ει τις ερχεται προς υμας και ταυτην την διδαχην ου φερει μη λαμβανετε αυτον εις οικιαν και χαιρειν αυτω μη λεγετε
11 For he who is saying to him, “Greetings,” has fellowship with his evil works.
ο γαρ λεγων αυτω χαιρειν κοινωνει τοις εργοις αυτου τοις πονηροις
12 Having many things to write to you, I did not intend [it] with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full.
πολλα εχων υμιν γραφειν ουκ ηβουληθην δια χαρτου και μελανος αλλα ελπιζω ελθειν προς υμας και στομα προς στομα λαλησαι ινα η χαρα ημων η πεπληρωμενη
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
ασπαζεται σε τα τεκνα της αδελφης σου της εκλεκτης αμην
