2 John 7-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

7 Many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh; any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist!(A) 8 Be on your guard, so that you do not lose what we[a] have worked for but may receive a full reward.(B) 9 Everyone who does not abide in the teaching of Christ, but goes beyond it,[b] does not have God; whoever abides in the teaching[c] has both the Father and the Son.(C) 10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive and welcome this person into your house,(D) 11 for to welcome is to participate in the evil deeds of such a person.(E)

2 John 7-11
International Standard Version

Reject False Teachers

7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world. They refuse to acknowledge Jesus the Messiah[a] as having become human. Any such person is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 See[b] to it that you[c] don’t destroy what we have[d] worked for, but that you[e] receive your[f] full reward. 9 Everyone who does not remain true to the teaching of the Messiah,[g] but goes beyond it, does not have God. The person who remains true to the teaching of the Messiah[h] has both the Father and the Son. 10 If anyone comes to you[i] but does not present his teachings,[j] do not receive[k] him into your house or even welcome[l] him, 11 because the one who welcomes him shares in his evil deeds.
