問安

我這作長老的,寫信給蒙揀選的夫人和她的兒女。你們是我在真理中所愛的;不單是我,凡認識真理的, 也因為真理的緣故愛你們。這真理在我們裡面,也必與我們同在,直到永遠。 願恩惠、憐憫、平安,從父 神和他兒子耶穌基督在真理和愛中與我們同在。

要按真理憑愛心行事

我看見你的兒女中,有人照著我們從父領受的命令在真理中行事,我就非常欣慰。 夫人哪,我現在請求你,我們要彼此相愛。我寫給你的,不是一條新命令,而是我們從起初就有的。 我們要照著他的命令行事,這就是愛。你們從起初所聽見的那命令,就是要你們憑著愛心行事。 有許多欺騙人的已經在世上出現,他們否認耶穌基督是成了肉身來的;這就是那騙人的和敵基督的。 你們要小心,不要拆毀我們已經完成的工作,卻要得著美滿的賞賜。 凡越過基督的教訓又不持守的,就沒有 神;持守這教訓的,就有父和子了。 10 如果有人到你們那裡,不傳這教訓,你們就不要接待他到家裡,也不要問候他; 11 因為問候他的,就在他的惡事上有分了。

問候的話

12 我還有許多話要寫給你們,可是我不想借用紙墨,只是盼望到你們那裡當面談談,好讓我們的喜樂充足。 13 你那蒙揀選的姊妹的兒女都問候你。

Greeting the Elect Lady

The Elder,

To the [a]elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those who have known (A)the truth, because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us forever:

(B)Grace, mercy, and peace will be with [b]you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

Walk in Christ’s Commandments

I (C)rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father. And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: (D)that we love one another. (E)This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that (F)as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.

Beware of Antichrist Deceivers

For (G)many deceivers have gone out into the world (H)who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. (I)This is a deceiver and an antichrist. (J)Look to yourselves, (K)that [c]we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.

(L)Whoever [d]transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and (M)does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; 11 for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.

John’s Farewell Greeting

12 (N)Having many things to write to you, I did not wish to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, (O)that our joy may be full.

13 (P)The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.

做长老的写信给蒙拣选的太太[a]和她的儿女,就是我诚心所爱的;不但我爱,也是一切知道真理之人所爱的。 爱你们是为真理的缘故,这真理存在我们里面,也必永远与我们同在。 恩惠、怜悯、平安从父神和他儿子耶稣基督,在真理和爱心上,必常与我们同在!

照神的诫命行就是爱

我见你的儿女有照我们从父所受之命令遵行真理的,就甚欢喜。 太太啊,我现在劝你:我们大家要彼此相爱。这并不是我写一条新命令给你,乃是我们从起初所受的命令。 我们若照他的命令行,这就是爱。你们从起初所听见当行的,就是这命令。 因为世上有许多迷惑人的出来,他们不认耶稣基督是成了肉身来的。这就是那迷惑人、敌基督的。 你们要小心,不要失去你们[b]所做的工,乃要得着满足的赏赐。

越过基督教训的就没有神

凡越过基督的教训不常守着的,就没有神;常守这教训的,就有父又有子。 10 若有人到你们那里,不是传这教训,不要接他到家里,也不要问他的安。 11 因为问他安的,就在他的恶行上有份。

12 我还有许多事要写给你们,却不愿意用纸墨写出来,但盼望到你那里,与你们当面谈论,使你们的喜乐满足。 13 你那蒙拣选之姐妹的儿女都问你安。

The elder,(A)

To the lady chosen by God(B) and to her children, whom I love in the truth(C)—and not I only, but also all who know the truth(D) because of the truth,(E) which lives in us(F) and will be with us forever:

Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ,(G) the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.

It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth,(H) just as the Father commanded us. And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning.(I) I ask that we love one another. And this is love:(J) that we walk in obedience to his commands.(K) As you have heard from the beginning,(L) his command is that you walk in love.

I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ(M) as coming in the flesh,(N) have gone out into the world.(O) Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.(P) Watch out that you do not lose what we[a] have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.(Q) Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ(R) does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.(S) 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them.(T) 11 Anyone who welcomes them shares(U) in their wicked work.

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,(V) so that our joy may be complete.(W)

13 The children of your sister, who is chosen by God,(X) send their greetings.
