Yochanan's Second Letter, Chapter 1
{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; {1:2}
for the truth's sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us
forever: {1:3} 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.
{1:4} I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children
walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father. {1:5}
Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new mitzvah,
but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
{1:6} This is love, that we should walk according to his mitzvot. This
is the mitzvah, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should
walk in it. {1:7} 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. {1:8} Watch yourselves,
that we don't lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we
receive a full reward. {1:9} Whoever transgresses and doesn't remain
in the teaching of Messiah, doesn't have God. He who remains in the
teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son. {1:10} If anyone
comes to you, and doesn't bring this teaching, don't receive him into
your house, and don't welcome him, {1:11} for he who welcomes him
participates in his evil works.
{1:12} 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. {1:13} The children of your
chosen sister greet you. Amen.
