3 John 1

Greetings

1This letter is from John, the elder.*1 Greek From the elder.

I am writing to Gaius, my dear friend, whom I love in the truth.

2Dear friend, I hope all is well with you and that you are as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit. 3Some of the traveling teachers*3 Greek the brothers; also in verses 5 and 10. recently returned and made me very happy by telling me about your faithfulness and that you are living according to the truth. 4I could have no greater joy than to hear that my children are following the truth.
