1:1
Senior Gajo carissimo, quem ego diligo in veritate.
The elder to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in truth.
作長老的寫信給親愛的該猶，就是我誠心所愛的。
1:2
Carissime, de omnibus orationem facio prospere te ingredi, et valere sicut prospere agit anima tua.
Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers.
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。
1:3
Gavisus sum valde venientibus fratribus, et testimonium perhibentibus veritati tuae, sicut tu in veritate ambulas.
For I rejoiced greatly when brothers came and testified about your truth, even as you walk in truth.
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。
1:4
Majorem horum non habeo gratiam, quam ut audiam filios meos in veritate ambulare.
I have no greater joy than this: to hear about my children walking in truth.
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。
1:5
Carissime, fideliter facis quidquid operaris in fratres, et hoc in peregrinos,
Beloved, you do a faithful work in whatever you accomplish for those who are brothers and strangers.
親愛的兄弟啊，凡你向作客旅之弟兄所行的都是忠心的。
1:6
qui testimonium reddiderunt caritati tuae in conspectu ecclesiae : quos, benefaciens, deduces digne Deo.
They have testified about your love before the assembly. You will do well to send them forward on their journey in a way worthy of God,
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。
1:7
Pro nomine enim ejus profecti sunt, nihil accipientes a gentibus.
because for the sake of the Name they went out, taking nothing from the Gentiles.
因他們是為主的名 出外，對於外邦人一無所取。
1:8
Nos ergo debemus suscipere hujusmodi, ut cooperatores simus veritatis.
We therefore ought to receive such, that we may be fellow workers for the truth.
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。
1:9
Scripsissem forsitan ecclesiae : sed is qui amat primatum gerere in eis, Diotrephes, non recipit nos :
I wrote to the assembly, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, doesn’t accept what we say.
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。
1:10
propter hoc si venero, commonebo ejus opera, quae 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.
Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, he doesn’t receive the brothers himself, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly.
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。
1:11
Carissime, noli imitari malum, sed quod bonum est. Qui benefacit, ex Deo est : qui malefacit, non vidit Deum.
Beloved, don’t imitate that which is evil, but that which is good. He who does good is of God. He who does evil hasn’t seen God.
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。
1:12
Demetrio testimonium redditur ab omnibus, et ab ipsa veritate, sed et nos testimonium perhibemus : et nosti quoniam testimonium nostrum verum est.
Demetrius has the testimony of all, and of the truth itself; yes, we also testify, and you know that our testimony is true.
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。
1:13
Multa habui tibi scribere : sed nolui per atramentum et calamum scribere tibi.
I had many things to write to you, but I am unwilling to write to you with ink and pen;
我原有許多事要寫給你，卻不願意用筆墨寫給你，
1:14
Spero autem protinus te videre, et os ad os loquemur. Pax tibi. Salutant te amici. Saluta amicos nominatim.
but I hope to see you soon. Then we will speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.
但盼望快快地見你，我們就當面談論。
