2 John 1

The Message Bible MSG

1 My dear congregation, I, your pastor, love you in very truth. And I'm not alone - everyone who knows the Truth

2 that has taken up permanent residence in us loves you.

3 Let grace, mercy, and peace be with us in truth and love from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, Son of the Father!

4 I can't tell you how happy I am to learn that many members of your congregation are diligent in living out the Truth, exactly as commanded by the Father.

5 But permit me a reminder, friends, and this is not a new commandment but simply a repetition of our original and basic charter: that we love each other.

6 Love means following his commandments, and his unifying commandment is that you conduct your lives in love. This is the first thing you heard, and nothing has changed.

7 There are a lot of smooth-talking charlatans loose in the world who refuse to believe that Jesus Christ was truly human, a flesh-and-blood human being. Give them their true title: Deceiver! Antichrist!

8 And be very careful around them so you don't lose out on what we've worked so diligently in together; I want you to get every reward you have coming to you.

9 Anyone who gets so progressive in his thinking that he walks out on the teaching of Christ, walks out on God. But whoever stays with the teaching, stays faithful to both the Father and the Son.

10 If anyone shows up who doesn't hold to this teaching, don't invite him in and give him the run of the place.

11 That would just give him a platform to perpetuate his evil ways, making you his partner.

12 I have a lot more things to tell you, but I'd rather not use paper and ink. I hope to be there soon in person and have a heart-to-heart talk. That will be far more satisfying to both you and me.

13 Everyone here in your sister congregation sends greetings.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 senior electae dominae et natis eius quos ego diligo in veritate et non ego solus sed et omnes qui cognoverunt veritatem

2 propter veritatem quae permanet in nobis et nobiscum erit in aeternum

3 sit nobiscum gratia misericordia pax a Deo Patre et a Christo Iesu Filio Patris in veritate et caritate

4 gavisus sum valde quoniam inveni de filiis tuis ambulantes in veritate sicut mandatum accepimus a Patre

5 et nunc rogo te domina non tamquam mandatum novum scribens tibi sed quod habuimus ab initio ut diligamus alterutrum

6 et haec est caritas ut ambulemus secundum mandata eius hoc mandatum est ut quemadmodum audistis ab initio in eo ambuletis

7 quoniam multi seductores exierunt in mundum qui non confitentur Iesum Christum venientem in carne hic est seductor et antichristus

8 videte vosmet ipsos ne perdatis quae operati estis sed ut mercedem plenam accipiatis

9 omnis qui praecedit et non manet in doctrina Christi Deum non habet qui permanet in doctrina hic et Filium et Patrem habet

10 si quis venit ad vos et hanc doctrinam non adfert nolite recipere eum in domum nec have ei dixeritis

11 qui enim dicit illi have communicat operibus illius malignis

12 plura habens vobis scribere nolui per cartam et atramentum spero enim me futurum apud vos et os ad os loqui ut gaudium vestrum plenum sit

13 salutant te filii sororis tuae electae
