1 ¶ The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth. elder^G4245 wellbeloved^G27 Gaius^G1050 whom^G3739 I^G1473 love^G25 in^G1722 truth^G225

3 ¶ For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth. For^G1063 rejoiced^G5463 greatly^G3029 brethren^G80 came^G2064 and^G2532 testified^G3140 truth^G225 thee^G4675 as^G2531 thou^G4771 walkest^G4043 in^G1722 truth^G225

4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. have^G2192 no^G3756 greater^G3186 greater^G5130 joy^G5479 to^G2443 hear^G191 my^G1699 children^G5043 walk^G4043 in^G1722 truth^G225

5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers; Beloved^G27 doest^G4160 faithfully^G4103 whatsoever^G3739 whatsoever^G1437 doest^G2038 to^G1519 brethren^G80 and^G2532 to^G1519 strangers^G3581

6 Which have borne witness of thy charity before the church: whom if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well: Which^G3739 witness^G3140 thy^G4675 charity^G26 before^G1799 church^G1577 whom^G3739 journey^G4311 after^G516 godly^G2316 sort^G516 do^G4160 well^G2573

9 ¶ I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. wrote^G1125 church^G1577 but^G235 Diotrephes^G1361 who^G3588 preeminence^G5383 them^G846 receiveth^G1926 us^G2248 not^G3756

10 Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church. Wherefore^G1223 Wherefore^G5124 if^G1437 come^G2064 remember^G5279 his^G846 deeds^G2041 which^G3739 doeth^G4160 against^G5396 us^G2248 malicious^G4190 words^G3056 and^G2532 not^G3361 content^G714 therewith^G1909 therewith^G5125 neither^G3777 doth^G1926 himself^G846 receive^G1926 brethren^G80 and^G2532 forbiddeth^G2967 would^G1014 and^G2532 casteth^G1544 of^G1537 church^G1577

11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.

13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee: had^G2192 things^G4183 write^G1125 but^G235 will^G2309 not^G3756 with^G1223 ink^G3188 and^G2532 pen^G2563 write^G1125 thee^G4671

14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name. But^G1161 trust^G1679 shall^G1492 shortly^G2112 see^G1492 thee^G4571 and^G2532 speak^G2980 face^G4750 to^G4314 face^G4750 Peace^G1515 thee^G4671 friends^G5384 salute^G782 thee^G4571 Greet^G782 friends^G5384 by^G2596 name^G3686
