3 John 8-10

New Century Version

⁸ So we should help such people; when we do, we share in their work for the truth.

⁹ I wrote something to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be their leader, will not listen to us. ¹⁰ So if I come, I will talk about what Diotrephes is doing, about how he lies and says evil things about us. But more than that, he refuses to accept the other brothers and sisters; he even stops those who do want to accept them and puts them out of the church.
