3 John 5-8
New American Standard Bible
5 Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the (A)brothers and sisters, and [a]especially when they are (B)strangers; 6 and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to [b](C)send them on their way in a manner (D)worthy of God. 7 For they went out for the sake of (E)the Name, (F)accepting nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore we ought to [c]support such people, so that we may [d]prove to be fellow workers [e]with the truth.

5 Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you do for the brethren [a]and for strangers, 6 who have borne witness of your love before the church. If you send them forward on their journey in a manner worthy of God, you will do well, 7 because they went forth for His name’s sake, (A)taking nothing from the Gentiles. 8 We therefore ought to (B)receive[b] such, that we may become fellow workers for the truth.
