問安
1 我這作長老的寫信給親愛的該猶，就是我在真理中所愛的。 2 親愛的，我祝你凡事亨通，身體健壯，正如你的靈魂安泰一樣。 3 有些弟兄來到，證實你心中存有真理，就是你按真理行事，我就非常欣慰。 4 我聽見我的兒女按真理行事，我的喜樂沒有比這更大的了。
稱讚該猶接待弟兄
5 親愛的，你向弟兄所行的，特別是向外地來的弟兄所行的，都是出於忠心。 6 他們在教會面前證實了你的愛；你照著 神所喜悅的，資助他們的旅程，這樣是好的。 7 因為他們為主的名出外，並沒有從教外人接受甚麼。 8 所以我們應當接待這樣的人，好讓我們為了真理成為同工。
不要效法惡，應該效法善
9 我曾經略略寫信給你那裡的教會，但他們中間那好作領袖的丟特腓不接待我們。 10 因此，我來的時候，必要提起他所作的事，就是他用惡言中傷我們；這還不夠，他不但不接待弟兄，還要阻止那些想要接待的人，甚至把他們趕出教會。
11 親愛的，不要效法惡，應該效法善。行善的屬於 神，作惡的沒有見過 神。 12 低米丟行善，有眾人為他作證，真理本身也為他作證。我們也為他作證，你知道我們的見證是真的。
問候的話
13 我還有許多話要寫給你，可是我不願借用筆墨。 14 我盼望很快就見到你，當面談談。 15 願你平安。這裡的朋友都問候你。請你一一提名問候你那裡的朋友。

1 The elder,(A)
To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. 3 It gave me great joy when some believers(B) came and testified about your faithfulness to the truth, telling how you continue to walk in it.(C) 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children(D) are walking in the truth.(E)
5 Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers and sisters,[a](F) even though they are strangers to you.(G) 6 They have told the church about your love. Please send them on their way(H) in a manner that honors(I) God. 7 It was for the sake of the Name(J) that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans.(K) 8 We ought therefore to show hospitality to such people so that we may work together for the truth.
9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. 10 So when I come,(L) I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he even refuses to welcome other believers.(M) He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church.(N)
11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good.(O) Anyone who does what is good is from God.(P) Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.(Q) 12 Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone(R)—and even by the truth itself. We also speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true.(S)
13 I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink. 14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face.(T)
15 Peace to you.(U) The friends here send their greetings. Greet the friends there by name.(V)

You Walk in the Truth
1 The elder [of the church addresses this letter] to the beloved and esteemed Gaius, whom I love in truth.
2 Beloved, I pray that in every way you may succeed and prosper and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul prospers [spiritually]. 3 For I was greatly pleased when [some of the] brothers came [from time to time] and testified to your [faithfulness to the] truth [of the gospel message], that is, how you are walking in truth. 4 I have no greater joy than this, to hear that my [spiritual] children are living [their lives] in the truth.
5 Beloved, you are acting faithfully in what you are providing for the brothers, and especially when they are strangers; 6 and they have testified before the church of your love and friendship. You will do well to [assist them and] send them on their way in a manner worthy of God. 7 For these [traveling missionaries] went out for the sake of the Name [of Christ], accepting nothing [in the way of assistance] from the Gentiles. 8 So we ought to support such people [welcoming them as guests and providing for them], so that we may be fellow workers for the truth [that is, for the gospel message of salvation].
9 I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to put himself first, does not accept what we say and refuses to recognize my authority. 10 For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, unjustly accusing us with wicked words and unjustified charges. And not satisfied with this, he refuses to receive the [missionary] brothers himself, and also forbids those who want to [welcome them] and puts them out of the church.
11 Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but [imitate] what is good. The one who practices good [exhibiting godly character, moral courage and personal integrity] is of God; the one who practices [or permits or tolerates] evil has not seen God [he has no personal experience with Him and does not know Him at all].(A) 12 Demetrius has received a good testimony and commendation from everyone—and from the truth [the standard of God’s word] itself; and we add our testimony and speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true.
13 I had many things [to say when I began] to write to you, but I prefer not to put it down with pen (reed) and [a]black (ink); 14 but I hope to see you soon, and we will speak [b]face to face.(B)
15 Peace be to you. The friends [here] greet you. Greet the friends [personally] by name.
