  • 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
  • 5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;

  • 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.
  • 13 I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
  • 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.
