1 The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth. Cross refs
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. Cross refs
5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers; Cross refs
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: Cross refs
7 Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles. Cross refs

9 I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
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. Cross refs
13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee: Cross refs
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. Cross refs
