Ὁ
The elder
πρεσβύτερος
unto the elect
ἐκλεκτῇ
lady
κυρίᾳ
also
καὶ
τοῖς
children
τέκνοις
her
αὐτῆς
whom
οὓς
I
ἐγὼ
love
ἀγαπῶ
in
ἐν
the truth
ἀλήθειαν
also
καὶ
not
οὐκ
I
ἐγὼ
only
μόνος
but
ἀλλὰ
also
καὶ
all
πάντες
οἱ
they that have known
ἐγνωκότες
τὴν
the truth
ἀλήθειαν
2
For
διὰ
which
τὸν
the truth's sake
ἀλήθειαν
which
τὸν
dwelleth
μένουσαν
in
ἐν
us
ἡμῖν
and
καὶ
with
μεθ'
us
ἡμῶν
shall be
ἔσται
for
εἰς
which
τὸν
ever
αἰῶνα
3
be
ἔσται
with
μεθ'
you
ὑμῶν
Grace
χάρις
mercy
ἔλεος
and peace
εἰρήνη
from
παρὰ
God
Θεοῦ
of the Father
πατρός,
and
καὶ
from
παρὰ
the Lord
Κυρίου
Jesus
Ἰησοῦ
Christ
Χριστοῦ
τοῦ
the Son
υἱοῦ
τοῦ
of the Father
πατρός,
in
ἐν
truth
ἀληθείᾳ
and
καὶ
love
ἀγάπῃ
4
I rejoiced
Ἐχάρην
greatly
λίαν
that
ὅτι
I found
εὕρηκα
of
ἐκ
τῶν
children
τέκνων
thy
σου
walking
περιπατοῦντας
in
ἐν
truth
ἀληθείᾳ
as
καθὼς
a commandment
ἐντολὴν
we have received
ἐλάβομεν
from
παρὰ
τοῦ
the Father
πατρός
5
And
καὶ
now
νῦν
I beseech
ἐρωτῶ
thee
σε
lady
κυρία
not
οὐχ
as though
ὡς
commandment
ἐντολὴν
I wrote
γράφω
unto thee
σοι
a new
καινὴν
but
ἀλλὰ
that which
ἣν
we had
εἴχομεν
from
ἀπ'
the beginning
ἀρχῆς
that
ἵνα
we love
ἀγαπῶμεν
one another
ἀλλήλους
6
And
καὶ
This
αὕτη
is
ἐστὶν
ἡ
love
ἀγάπη
That
ἵνα
we walk
περιπατῆτε
after
κατὰ
τὰς
commandments
ἐντολή,
his
αὐτῇ
This
αὕτη
is
ἐστὶν
ἡ
commandments
ἐντολή,
as
καθὼς
ye have heard
ἠκούσατε
from
ἀπ'
the beginning
ἀρχῆς
That
ἵνα
in
ἐν
his
αὐτῇ
we walk
περιπατῆτε
7
For
ὅτι
many
πολλοὶ
a deceiver
πλάνος
are entered
εἰσῆλθον
into
εἰς
who
ὁ
the world
κόσμον
who
ὁ
not
μὴ
confess
ὁμολογοῦντες
that Jesus
Ἰησοῦν
Christ
Χριστὸν
is come
ἐρχόμενον
in
ἐν
the flesh
σαρκί·
This
οὗτός
is
ἐστιν
who
ὁ
a deceiver
πλάνος
and
καὶ
who
ὁ
an antichrist
ἀντίχριστος
8
Look
βλέπετε
to yourselves
ἑαυτούς,
ἵνα
μὴ
we lose
ἀπολέσωμεν
those things which
ἃ
we have wrought
εἰργασάμεθα
but
ἀλλὰ
reward
μισθὸν
a full
πλήρη
that we receive
ἀπολάβωμεν
9
Whosoever
πᾶς
ὁ
transgresseth
παραβαίνων
and

For
γὰρ
he that biddeth
λέγων
him
αὐτοῦ

χαίρειν
is partaker
