3 John 9-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to ^(A)be first among them, does not accept ^[a]what we say. ¹⁰ For this reason, ^(B)if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not ^(C)receive the ^(D)brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and ^(E)puts them out of the church.
