← 3 John 1:11	3 John 1:12 (KJV)	3 John 1:13 →
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.	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.	I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
