Diotrephes and Demetrius
9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence among them, does not receive us.
10 Therefore, if I come, I will call to mind his deeds which he does, aprating against us with malicious words. And not content with that, he himself does not receive the brethren, and forbids those who wish to, putting them out of the church.
11 Beloved, ado not imitate what is evil, but what is good. bHe who does good is of God, but he who does evil has not seen cGod.
12 Demetrius ahas a good testimony from all, and from the truth itself. And we also1 bear witness, band you know that our testimony is true.
Farewell Greeting
13 aI had many things to write, but I do not wish to write to you with pen and ink;
14 but I hope to see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace to you. Our friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.
