约翰三书
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
1 我这做长老的写信给亲爱的该犹,就是我本着真理所爱的人。 2 亲爱的弟兄,衷心地祝你凡事顺利,身体和灵魂一样健康。
该犹的好品行
3 有弟兄们来为你的行为做见证,说你忠心地遵行真理,这使我非常欣慰。 4 没有比听见自己的孩子遵行真理更使我欢喜了。
5 亲爱的弟兄,你常常忠心地照顾素不相识的弟兄, 6 他们把你的爱心告诉了教会。愿你照着上帝所喜悦的方式继续帮助他们, 7 因为他们为了主耶稣的名四处传道,不收取非信徒的任何东西。 8 我们应该接待这样的人,好与他们一同传扬真理。
丢特腓的恶行
9 我曾写信给你那里的教会,但喜欢做领袖的丢特腓不理会我们。 10 因此,我若去你们那里,会提及他的所作所为,就是他怎样恶言中伤我们。不仅如此,他还拒绝接待弟兄,并且禁止别人接待,甚至将接待的人赶出教会。
抑恶扬善
11 亲爱的弟兄,不要效法罪恶,要效法美善。行善的人属于上帝,行恶的人不认识上帝。 12 低米丢得到了众人的好评,真理本身也为他做见证,我们也为他做见证。你们知道我们的见证是真实的。
结语
13 我本来有很多事想跟你谈,但不想用笔墨写给你, 14 只希望可以快快地见到你,跟你当面畅谈。
15 祝你平安!这里的朋友们都问候你,请代我一一问候你那边的朋友。
約 翰 三 書
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
1 我,一名长老,写信给我亲爱的朋友该犹,我在真理 [a]之中爱他。
2 亲爱的朋友,我祝你万事如意,身体健康,就像你在心灵上健康一样。 3 一些兄弟到我这里来,把你忠于真理和继续遵从真理之道的消息告诉了我。这使我非常高兴。 4 没有比听到我的孩子们遵从真理之道更让我高兴的事了。
5 亲爱的朋友,尽管我们的兄弟对你来说是陌生人,但你却忠诚地为他们尽你之所能。 6 他们在教会里为你所表现的爱做了见证。请用令上帝满意的方式,帮他们继续他们的旅程。 7 因为他们是为了侍奉耶稣才踏上旅途的,并且没有接受异教徒的任何帮助。 8 因此我们应该帮助这些兄弟,以便和他们一起为真理工作。
9 我给这个教会写过一封信,但是,想当他们的领袖的丢特腓却不接受我们所说的。 10 所以当我来的时候,要揭露他的行为。他用恶毒的语言造谣,蓄意控告我,但还不甘心。此外,他不但拒绝帮助那些为侍奉基督而工作的兄弟,还阻挠那些想要帮助这些兄弟们的人,并且把他们赶出教会。
11 亲爱的朋友,要从善,不要从恶。行善的人属于上帝,做恶的人从来就不认识上帝。
12 大家都称赞低米丢,真理为他作证。我们也为他作证。你们知道我们所说的是真实的。
13 我有许多事情想告诉你,但我不想用纸和墨来交流。 14 我希望不久能去探访你们,和你们当面倾谈。 15 愿你平安。这里所有的朋友(信徒)问候你们。请代我向那里我们的各位朋友一一问候。

3 John
New International Version
1 The elder,(A)
To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. 3 It gave me great joy when some believers(B) came and testified about your faithfulness to the truth, telling how you continue to walk in it.(C) 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children(D) are walking in the truth.(E)
5 Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers and sisters,[a](F) even though they are strangers to you.(G) 6 They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way(H) in a manner that honors(I) God. 7 It was for the sake of the Name(J) that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans.(K) 8 We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.
9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. 10 So when I come,(L) I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he even refuses to welcome other believers.(M) He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church.(N)
11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good.(O) Anyone who does what is good is from God.(P) Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.(Q) 12 Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone(R)—and even by the truth itself. We also speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true.(S)
13 I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink. 14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face.(T)
15 Peace to you.(U) The friends here send their greetings. Greet the friends there by name.(V)

3 John
King James Version
1 The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.
4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;
6 Which have borne witness of thy charity before the church: whom if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well:
7 Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.
8 We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.
9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
10 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.
11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our record is true.
13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name.
Трето Йоаново
Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)
Поздрав
1 (A)Аз, стареят – до възлюбения Гай, когото истински обичам. 2 Възлюбени, моля се да бъдеш здрав и да преуспяваш във всичко, както преуспява душата ти.
Гай – образец за вяра и любов
3 (B)Много се зарадвах, когато дойдоха братя и свидетелстваха за твоята вярност към истината – как ти постъпваш според истината. 4 За мене няма по-голяма радост от тази – да чувам, че моите деца постъпват според истината.
5 Възлюбени, ти постъпваш вярно във всичко, което правиш за братята и за странниците. 6 Те засвидетелстваха пред църквата твоята любов. Добре ще сториш, ако ги изпратиш пред Бога, както подобава. 7 Защото те тръгнаха в Негово име, без да вземат нещо от езичниците. 8 (C)Ето защо сме длъжни да приемаме такива хора, за да спомагаме за разпространението на истината.
Порицание за Диотреф
9 Изпратих послание до църквата. Но Диотреф, който обича да първенствува между тях, не обръща внимание на посланието ми. 10 Затова ако дойда, ще му напомня за делата, които върши, като ни хули с лоши думи. И като не се задоволява с това, той самият не приема братята, а на желаещите да ги приемат забранява, дори ги гони от църквата.
Похвала за Димитрий
11 (D)Възлюбени, не подражавай на злото, а на доброто. Който прави добро, принадлежи на Бога, а който прави зло, не е познал Бога. 12 (E)За Димитрий беше получено добро свидетелство от всички, а и от самата истина; свидетелстваме също и ние и вие знаете, че нашето свидетелство е истинно.
Заключителни поздрави
13 (F)Много имах да ти пиша. Но не искам да ти пиша с мастило и перо. 14 Надявам се скоро да те видя и да поговорим лично.
15 Желая ти мир. Приятелите те поздравяват. Поздрави приятелите поименно. Амин.
