ΙΩΑΝΝΟΥ Γ

Epistola B. Joannis Apostoli Tertia

The Third Epistle General of John

ὁ πρεσβύτερος γαΐῳ τῶ ἀγαπητῶ, ὃν ἐγὼ ἀγαπῶ ἐν ἀληθείᾳ. 1

Senior Gajo carissimo, quem ego diligo in veritate. 1

The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth. 1

ἀγαπητέ, περὶ πάντων εὔχομαί σε εὐοδοῦσθαι καὶ ὑγιαίνειν, καθὼς εὐοδοῦταί σου ἡ ψυχή. 2

Carissime, de omnibus orationem facio prospere te inCor I gredi, et valere sicut prospere agit anima tua. 2

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 2

ἐχάρην γὰρ λίαν ἐρχομένων ἀδελφῶν καὶ μαρτυρούντων σου τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, καθὼς σὺ ἐν ἀληθείᾳ περιπατεῖς. 3

Gavisus sum valde venientibus fratribus, et testimonium perhibentibus veritati tuæ, sicut tu in veritate ambulas. 3

For I rejoiced Cor I greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth. 3

μειζοτέραν τούτων οὐκ ἔχω χαράν, ἵνα ἀκούω τὰ ἐμὰ τέκνα ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ περιπατοῦντα. 4

Majorem horum non habeo gratiam, quam ut audiam filios meos in veritate ambulare. 4

I have no Cor I greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth. 4

ἀγαπητέ, πιστὸν ποιεῖς ὃ ἐὰν ἐργάσῃ εἰς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ τοῦτο ξένους, 5

Carissime, fideliter facis quidquid operaris in fratres, et hoc in peregrinos, 5

Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers; 5

οἳ ἐμαρτύρησάν σου τῇ ἀγάπῃ ἐνώπιον ἐκκλησίας, οὓς καλῶς ποιήσεις προπέμψας ἀξίως τοῦ θεοῦ· 6

qui testimonium reddiderunt caritati tuæ in conspectu ecclesiæ: quos, benefaciens, deduces digne Deo. 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: 6

ὑπὲρ γὰρ τοῦ ὀνόματος ἐξῆλθον μηδὲν λαμβάνοντες ἀπὸ τῶν ἐθνικῶν. 7

Pro nomine enim ejus profecti sunt, nihil accipientes a gentibus. 7

Because that for his name’s sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles. 7

ἡμεῖς οὗν ὀφείλομεν ὑπολαμβάνειν τοὺς τοιούτους, ἵνα συνεργοὶ γινώμεθα τῇ ἀληθείᾳ. 8

Nos ergo debemus suscipere hujusmodi, ut cooperatores simus veritatis. 8

We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth. 8

ἔγραψά τι τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ· ἀλλ᾽ ὁ φιλοπρωτεύων αὐτῶν διοτρέφης οὐκ ἐπιδέχεται ἡμᾶς. 9

Scripsissem forsitan ecclesiæ: sed is qui amat primatum genere in eis, Diotrephes, non recipit nos: 9

I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. 9

διὰ τοῦτο, ἐὰν ἔλθω, ὑπομνήσω αὐτοῦ τὰ ἔργα ἃ ποιεῖ, λόγοις πονηροῖς φλυαρῶν ἡμᾶς· καὶ μὴ ἀρκούμενος ἐπὶ τούτοις οὔτε αὐτὸς ἐπιδέχεται τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ τοὺς βουλομένους κωλύει καὶ ἐκ τῆς ἐκκλησίας ἐκβάλλει. 10

propter hoc si venero, commonebo ejus opera, quæ facit, verbis malignis garriens in nos: et quasi non ei ista sufficiant, neque ipse suscipit fratres: et eos qui suscipiunt, prohibet, et de ecclesia ejicit. 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. 10

ἀγαπητέ, μὴ μιμοῦ τὸ κακὸν ἀλλὰ τὸ ἀγαθόν. ὁ ἀγαθοποιῶν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν· ὁ κακοποιῶν οὐχ ἑώρακεν τὸν θεόν. 11

Carissime, noli imitari malum, sed quod bonum est. Qui benefacit, ex Deo est: qui malefacit, non vidit Deum. 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. 11

δημητρίῳ μεμαρτύρηται ὑπὸ πάντων καὶ ὑπὸ αὐτῆς τῆς ἀληθείας· καὶ ἡμεῖς δὲ μαρτυροῦμεν, καὶ οἶδας ὅτι ἡ μαρτυρία ἡμῶν ἀληθής ἐστιν. 12

Demetrio testimonium redditur ab omnibus, et ab ipsa veritate, sed et nos testimonium perhibemus: et nosti quoniam testimonium nostrum verum est. 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. 12

πολλὰ εἶχον γράψαι σοι, ἀλλ᾽ οὐ θέλω διὰ μέλανος καὶ καλάμου σοι γράφειν· 13

Multa habui tibi scribere: sed nolui per atramentum et calamum scribere tibi. 13

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

ἐλπίζω δὲ εὐθέως σε ἰδεῖν, καὶ στόμα πρὸς στόμα λαλήσομεν. 14

Spero autem protinus te videre, et os ad os loquemur. 14

But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face. 14

εἰρήνη σοι. ἀσπάζονταί σε οἱ φίλοι. ἀσπάζου τοὺς φίλους κατ᾽ ὄνομα. 15

Pax tibi. Salutant te amici. Saluta amicos nominatim. 14

Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name. 14
