< 2 John 1 >

1 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,
THE presbyter to the elect Kuria and to her sons, whom I love in truth, nor I only, but all they who know the truth,
2 for the truth’s sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever: (aiōn g165)
on account of the truth which abideth in us, and is with us for ever; (aiōn g165)
3 Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Grace be with you and mercy and peace, from Aloha the Father, and from Jeshu Meshiha the Son of the Father, in truth and in love.
4 I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.
I have rejoiced much to have found of thy sons who walk in the truth, after the commandment we have received from the Father.
5 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.
And now I entreat thee, Kuria, -no new commandment writing to thee, but that which we have had from the beginning, -that we love one another.
6 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.
And this is love, that we walk according to the commandment; this commandment is according to that which you have heard from the beginning, that in it we should walk.
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don’t confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.
Because many deceivers are come out into the world who confess not that Jeshu Meshiha came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and antichrist.
8 Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.
Be watchful of yourselves, that not any thing perish which you have wrought; but (that with) a complete reward you may be recompensed.
9 Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
Every one who transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of the Meshiha, hath not Aloha. He who abideth in his doctrine, this hath both the Father and the Son.
10 If anyone comes to you and doesn’t bring this teaching, don’t receive him into your house, and don’t welcome him,
If any one come to you, and this doctrine bring not, receive him not into the house, and "Joy to you," and " Farewell," say not to him.
11 for he who welcomes him participates in his evil deeds.
For he who saith to him, " Farewell," becometh a participator of his evil deeds.
12 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.
Though I have many things to write to you, I will not with parchment and ink; but I hope to come to you, and mouth with mouth to speak, that our joy may be complete.
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
The sons of thy elect sister ask your peace. Grace be with you. Amen.
