1 The 3588 elder, 4245 to Gaius the 3588 beloved, 27 whom 3739 I 1473 love 25 in 1722 truth. 225
2 Beloved, 27 concerning 4012 all things 3956 I make a vow 2172 for you 1473 to prosper 2137 and 2532 to be in health, 5198 as 2531 [³prospers 2137 ¹your 1473 3588 ²soul]. 5590
3 For I rejoiced exceedingly 3029 [²coming 2064 ¹of the brethren], 80 and 2532 bearing witness 3140 of you 1473 in the 3588 truth, 225 as 2531 you 1473 [²in 1722 ³truth 225 ¹walk]. 4043
4 [³greater 3173 ⁵ than this 3778 ²no 3756 ¹I have 2192 ⁴joy], 5479 that 2443 I should hear of 191 3588 my 1699 children 5043 [²in 1722 ³truth 225 ¹walking]. 4043
5 Beloved, 27 [²trusting 4103 ¹do] 4160 what 3739 ever 1437 you should work 2038 among 1519 the 3588 brethren, 80 and 2532 among 1519 the 3588 strangers, 3581
6 (the ones 3588 witnessing 3140 [³of yours 1473 ¹to the 3588 ²love] 26 before 1799 the assembly), 1577 whom 3739 [²well 2573 ¹you shall do] 4160 having sent forward 4311 worthily 516 3588 of God. 2316
7 For on account of 3588 his 1473 name 3686 they went forth 1831 [²nothing 3367 ¹taking] 2983 from 575 the 3588 nations. 1484
8 We 1473 then 3767 ought 3784 to accept 618 3588 such, 5108 that 2443 [²fellow-workers 4904 ¹we should become] 1096 in the 3588 truth. 225
9 I wrote 1125 to the 3588 assembly, 1577 but 235 the one 3588 enjoying being first 5383 of them -- 1473 Diotrephes, does not 3756 welcome 1926 us. 1473
10 On account of this, if 1437 I come, 2064 I will remind 5279 him 1473 the 3588 works 2041 which 3739 he does -- 4160 [²words 3056 ¹evil] 4190 prating against 5396 us. 1473 And 2532 not 3361 being sufficient 714 with 1909 these, 3778 neither 3777 he himself 1473 welcomes 1926 the 3588 brethren, 80 and 2532 the ones 3588 wanting to 1014 he restrains, 2967 and 2532 [²of 1537 ³the 3588 ⁴assembly 1577 ¹casts them out]. 1544
11 Beloved, 27 do not 3361 imitate 3401 3588 evil, 2556 but 235 the 3588 good! 18 The one 3588 doing good 15 [²of 1537 3588 ³God 2316 ¹is]; but the one doing evil 2554 has not 3756 seen 3708 3588 God. 2316
12 To Demetrius witness is borne 3140 by 5259 all, 3956 and 2532 by 5259 [³itself 1473 ¹the 3588 ²truth]; 225 and we also bear witness, 3140 and 2532 you know 1492 that 3754 3588 our 1473 witness 3141 is true. 227
13 Many things 4183 I have 2192 to write, 1125 but 235 I do not want by 1223 ink 3188 and 2532 reed 2563 to write to you.
14 But I hope immediately 2112 to see 1492 you, 1473 and 2532 mouth 4750 to 4314 mouth 4750 we shall speak. 2980 Peace 1515 to you. 1473 [³greet 782 ⁴you 1473 ¹The 3588 ²friends]. 5384 Greet 782 the 3588 friends 5384 by 2596 name! 3686
