NIV

1 The elder unto the chosen lady and her sons, whom I love in the truth, and not I only, but also all those that have known the truth,
1 The elder, To the lady chosen by God and to her children, whom I love in the truth—and not I only, but also all who know the truth—
2 for the truth’s sake, which abides in us and shall be with us for ever.
2 because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever:
3 Grace be with you, mercy <em>and</em> peace, from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and charity.
3 Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.
4 I have rejoiced greatly, for I have found of thy sons that they walk in the truth, as we have received the commandment from the Father.
4 It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us.
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.
5 And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we love one another.
6 And this is charity, that we walk after his commandment. And this is the commandment, That ye walk in him, as ye have heard from the beginning.
6 And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love.
7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who do not confess Jesus Christ coming in flesh. This same is a deceiver and antichrist.
7 I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
8 Look to yourselves, that we not lose those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a fulfilled reward.
8 Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.
9 Whosoever rebels and does not abide in the doctrine of the Christ, does not have God. He that abides in the doctrine of the Christ, the same has the Father and the Son.
9 Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
10 If anyone comes unto you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into <em>your</em> house neither say unto him, Welcome:
10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them.
11 For he that says unto him, Welcome, is partaker of his evil deeds.
11 Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work.
12 Having many things to write unto you, I would not <em>write</em> with paper and ink, but I trust to come unto you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
12 I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.
13 The sons of thy chosen sister greet thee. Amen.
13 The children of your sister, who is chosen by God, send their greetings.
