2 John 1
1 The Elder to the choice Kyria, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those having known the truth,
The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those who know the truth,
for the truth’s sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever: (aiōn g165)
3 there shall be with you grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from the Lord Yeshua the Messiah, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
4 I rejoiced exceedingly that I have found of thy children walking in truth, even as a command we did receive from the Father;
I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.
5 and now I beseech thee, Kyria, not as writing to thee a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,
Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
6 and this is the love, that we may walk according to His commands; this is the command, even as ye did hear from the beginning, that in it ye may walk,
This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
7 because many leading astray did enter into the world, who are not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh; this one is he who is leading astray, and the antichrist.
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don’t confess that Yeshua the Messiah came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Anti-messiah.
8 See to yourselves that ye may not lose the things that we wrought, but a full reward may receive;
Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.
9 every one who is transgressing, and is not remaining in the teaching of the Christ, hath not God; he who is remaining in the teaching of the Christ, this one hath both the Father and the Son;
Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Messiah doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
10 if any one doth come unto you, and this teaching doth not bear, receive him not into the house, and say not to him, 'Hail!'
If anyone comes to you and doesn’t bring this teaching, don’t receive him into your house, and don’t welcome him,
11 for he who is saying to him, 'Hail,' hath fellowship with his evil works.
for he who welcomes him participates in his evil deeds.
12 Many things having to write to you, I did not intend through paper and ink, but I hope to come unto you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full;
Having many things to write to you, I don’t want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
13 salute thee do the children of thy choice sister. Amen.
The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
