2JO-1:1  The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I 
love in the

truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the 
truth;

2JO-1:2  For the truth's sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall 
be with us for

ever.

2JO-1:3  Grace be with you, mercy, [and] peace, from God the 
Father, and from

the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

2JO-1:4  I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking 
in truth, as

we have received a commandment from the Father.

2JO-1:5  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.



2JO-1:6  And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. 
This is the

commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye 
should walk in it.

2JO-1:7  For many deceivers are entered into the world, who 
confess not that

Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an 
antichrist.

2JO-1:8  Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which 
we have

wrought, but that we receive a full reward.

2JO-1:9  Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the 
doctrine of Christ,

hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath 
both the

Father and the Son.

2JO-1:10  If there come any unto you, and bring not this 
doctrine, receive him

not into [your] house, neither bid him God speed:

2JO-1:11  For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his 
evil deeds.

2JO-1:12  Having many things to write unto you, I would not 
[write] with paper

and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, 
that our joy may

be full.

2JO-1:13  The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen.
