3 John 3-8
New American Standard Bible
3 For I (A)was overjoyed when (B)brothers came and testified to your truth, that is, how you (C)are walking in truth. 4 I have no greater joy than [a]this, to hear of (D)my children (E)walking in the truth.
5 Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the (F)brothers and sisters, and [b]especially when they are (G)strangers; 6 and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to [c](H)send them on their way in a manner (I)worthy of God. 7 For they went out for the sake of (J)the Name, (K)accepting nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore we ought to [d]support such people, so that we may [e]prove to be fellow workers [f]with the truth.
