=====3John / 3 Johannes 1 ===== ^ [[bijbels:kjv:|Terug naar Bijbel index]] ^ [[bijbels:kjv:tekst:3johannes|Terug naar Boek index]] ^ \\ \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-1|1]] The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-2|2]] Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-3|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. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-4|4]] I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-5|5]] Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers; \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-6|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: \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-7|7]] Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-8|8]] We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-9|9]] I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-10|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. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-11|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. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-12|12]] Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our record is true. \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-13|13]] I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee: \\ [[commentaar:3johannes1-14|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.
