3 John 5-8
New Living Translation
Caring for the Lord’s Workers
5 Dear friend, you are being faithful to God when you care for the traveling teachers who pass through, even though they are strangers to you. 6 They have told the church here of your loving friendship. Please continue providing for such teachers in a manner that pleases God. 7 For they are traveling for the Lord,[a] and they accept nothing from people who are not believers.[b] 8 So we ourselves should support them so that we can be their partners as they teach the truth.

English Standard Version
Support and Opposition
5 Beloved, it is a faithful thing you do in all your efforts for (A)these brothers, (B)strangers as they are, 6 who testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner (C)worthy of God. 7 For they have gone out for the sake of (D)the name, (E)accepting nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth.
