3Jn 1:3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.

3Jn 1:10 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. (kjv)	3Jn 1:10 For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not receive the brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and puts them out of the church.	3John.1:10 Darum, wenn ich komme, will ich ihn erinnern seiner Werke, die er tut; denn er plaudert mit bösen Worten wider uns und läßt sich an dem nicht genügen; er selbst nimmt die Brüder nicht an und wehrt denen, die es tun wollen, und stößt sie aus der Gemeinde.

The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.	3John.1:11 Mein Lieber, folge nicht nach dem Bösen, sondern dem Guten. Wer Gutes tut, der ist von Gott; wer Böses tut, der sieht Gott nicht.

3Jn 1:13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee: (kjv)	3Jn 1:13 I had many things to write to you, but I am not willing to write them to you with pen and ink;	3John.1:13 Ich hatte viel zu schreiben; aber ich will nicht mit der Tinte und der Feder an dich schreiben.
3Jn 1:14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee.
