Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. (3 John 1:2)

[D.W.Elijah]

1:1 The elder, To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth.




1:2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.

사랑하는 친구여, 나는 기도하노라 네가 좋은 건강을 누릴수 있기를
게다가 모든 것들이 너와 함께 잘 되어가기를 심지어 네 영혼이
잘 되어가는것처럼 (직역 ^^*)






1:3 It gave me great joy to have some brothers come and tell about your faithfulness to the truth and how you continue to walk in the truth.

나에게 큰 기쁨을 주었습니다 어떤 형제들이 와서 진리에 대한 당신의 충실함에 관해 이야기해주고 (그리고) 당신이 진리안에서 얼마나 꾸준히 걸어가고 있는지를

어떤 형제들이 와서 진리에 대한 당신의 충실(충성)함을 이야기하고
얼마나 당신이 진리안에서 계속 걸어가고(행하고)있는지를 알게되는(have) 것이 저에겐 큰 기쁨이었습니다





1:4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

나의 자녀들이 진리안에서 행하고 있는 것을 듣는것보다
더 큰 기쁨은 없답니다 *^^*


1:5 Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers, even though they are strangers to you.

^^
사랑하는 친구여, 그대가 형제들을 위하여 행하는 것이 신실하도다
심지어 그들이 그대에게 낯선자들이라 할지라도


1:6 They have told the church about your love. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God.
1:7 It was for the sake of the Name that they went out, receiving no help from the pagans.
1:8 We ought therefore to show hospitality to such men so that we may work together for the truth.
1:9 I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will have nothing to do with us.
1:10 So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, gossiping maliciously about us. Not satisfied with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers. He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church.
1:11 Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
1:12 Demetrius is well spoken of by everyone--and even by the truth itself. We also speak well of him, and you know that our testimony is true.
1:13 I have much to write you, but I do not want to do so with pen and ink.
1:14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face. Peace to you. The friends here send their greetings. Greet the friends there by name.
