| 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. |

| 1:7 | 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. |

| 1:9 | 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: |
| 1:11 | 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. |
