2 John 1 - Interlinear Bible
Walk According to His Commandments
1
The
elder to the
chosen lady and her
children,
whom I
love in
truth ; and not
only I, but
also all who
know the
truth,
2
for the
sake of the
truth which
abides in us and will be with us
forever :
3
Grace,
mercy and
peace will be with us, from
God the
Father and from
Jesus Christ, the
Son of the
Father, in
truth and
love.
4
I was
very glad to
find some of your
children walking in
truth,
just as we have
received commandment to do from the
Father.
5
Now I
ask you,
lady, not as though I were
writing to you a
new commandment, but the one
which we have
had from the
beginning, that we
love one another.
6
And
this is
love, that we
walk according to His
commandments.
This is the
commandment,
just as you have
heard from the
beginning, that you should
walk in it.
8
Watch yourselves, that you do not
lose what we have
accomplished, but that you may
receive a
full reward.
9
Anyone who
goes too far and does not
abide in the
teaching of
Christ, does not
have God ; the one who
abides in the
teaching, he
has both the
Father and the
Son.
10
If anyone comes to you and does not
bring this teaching, do not
receive him into your
house, and do not
give him a
greeting ;
11
for the one who
gives him a
greeting participates in his
evil deeds.
12
Though I
have many things to
write to you, I do not
want to do so with
paper and
ink ; but I
hope to
come to you and
speak face to
face,
so that your
joy may be
made full.
