2 John 1:1-6

1 From: The Elder To: The chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth - and not only I but also all who have come to know the truth -

2 because of the Truth which remains united with us and will be with us forever:

3 Grace, mercy and shalom will be with us from God the Father and from Yeshua the Messiah, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

4 I was very happy when I found some of your children living in truth, just as the Father commanded us.

5 And now, dear lady, I am requesting that we love one another - not as if this were a new command I am writing you, for it is the one which we have had from the beginning.

6 Moreover, love is this: that we should live according to his commands. This is the command, as you people have heard from the beginning; live by it!
