3 John 8-10

Complete Jewish Bible

⁸ It is we, therefore, who should support such people; so that we may share in their work for the truth.

⁹ I wrote something to the congregation; but Diotrephes, who likes to be the macher among them, doesn’t recognize our authority. ¹⁰ So if I come, I will bring up everything he is doing, including his spiteful and groundless gossip about us. And as if that weren’t enough for him, he refuses to recognize the brothers’ authority either; moreover, he stops those who want to do so and tries to drive them out of the congregation!
