2 John 7-11
New American Standard Bible
7 For (A)many deceivers have (B)gone out into the world, those who (C)do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is (D)the deceiver and the (E)antichrist. 8 (F)Watch yourselves, (G)that you do not lose what we have accomplished, but that you may receive a full reward. 9 [a]Anyone who [b]goes too far and (H)does not remain in the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the one who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, (I)do not receive him into your house, and do not [c]give him a greeting; 11 for the one who [d]gives him a greeting [e](J)participates in his evil deeds.

2 John 7-11
New King James Version
Beware of Antichrist Deceivers
7 For (A)many deceivers have gone out into the world (B)who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. (C)This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 (D)Look to yourselves, (E)that [a]we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.
9 (F)Whoever [b]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 (G)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.
