約翰三書 1
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1作長老的寫信給親愛的 該猶 ，就是我誠心所愛的。
1The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2親愛的 兄弟 啊，我願你凡事興盛，身體健壯，正如你的靈魂興盛一樣。
2Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
3有弟兄來證明你心裏存的真理，正如你按真理而行，我就甚喜樂。
3For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.
4我聽見我的兒女們按真理而行，我的喜樂就沒有比這個大的。
4I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
5親愛的 兄弟 啊，凡你向作客旅之弟兄所行的都是忠心的。
5Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;
6他們在教會面前證明了你的愛；你若配得過上帝，幫助他們往前行，這就好了。
6Which 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:
7因他們是為主的名出外，對於外邦人一無所取。
7Because that for his name’s sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.
8所以我們應該接待這樣的人，叫我們與他們一同為真理做工。
8We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.
9我曾略略地寫信給教會，但那在教會中好為首的 丟特腓 不接待我們。
9I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
10所以我若去，必要提說他所行的事，就是他用惡言妄論我們。還不以此為足，他自己不接待弟兄，有人願意接待，他也禁止，並且將接待弟兄的人趕出教會。
10Wherefore, 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.
11親愛的 兄弟 啊，不要效法惡，只要效法善。行善的屬乎上帝；行惡的未曾見過上帝。
11Beloved, 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.
12低米丟 行善 ，有眾人給他作見證，又有真理給他作見證，就是我們也給他作見證。你也知道我們的見證是真的。
12Demetrius 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我原有許多事要寫給你，卻不願意用筆墨寫給你，
13I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
14但盼望快快地見你，我們就當面談論。
14But 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.
15願你平安。眾位朋友都問你安。請你替我按着姓名問眾位朋友安。
