| 1:1 | The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth; |
| 1:2 | For the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever. |
| 1:3 | Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. |
| 1:4 | I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father. |
| 1:5 | And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another. |
| 1:6 | And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it. |
| 1:7 | For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. |
| 1:8 | Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward. |
| 1:9 | Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. |
| 1:10 | If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: |
| 1:10 | 若有人到你們那裡、不是傳這教訓、不要接他到家裡、也不要問他的安． |
| 1:10 | 若有人到你们那里，不是传这教训，不要接他到家里，也不要问他的安。 |
| gal:1:8 | But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. |
| gal:1:9 | As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. |
| rom:16:17 | Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. |
| 1co:5:11 | But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat. |
| 2ts:3:14 | And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed. |
| tit:3:10 | A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; |
| COBL | |
| 1:11 | For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds. |
| 1:12 | Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full. |
| 1:13 | The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen. |
