2 John 6-13

English Standard Version

⁶ And ^(A)this is love, that we walk according to his commandments; this is the commandment, just ^(B)as you have heard from the beginning, so that you should walk in it. ⁷ For ^(C)many deceivers ^(D)have gone out into the world, ^(E)those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist. ⁸ Watch yourselves, ^(F)so that you may not lose what we^[a] have worked for, but ^(G)may win a full reward. ⁹ Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, ^(H)does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching ^(I)has both the Father and the Son. ¹⁰ If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, ^(J)do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, ¹¹ for whoever greets him ^(K)takes part in his wicked works.

Final Greetings

^12 (L)Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink. ^(M)Instead I hope to come to you and talk face to face, ^(N)so that our joy may be complete.

¹³ The children of your elect sister greet you.
