2 John 1

Under each verse is the Greek source text word by word: each word with its transliteration, English gloss, Extended Strong's number and morphology code, and the editions that contain it: NA28 (Nestle-Aland), TR (Textus Receptus), or “other” where neither does. Where the TR has a different word, it is given too. Source text: STEPBible's TAGNT (CC BY 4.0)

Tap a word to mark it throughout the chapter; a morphology code explains itself the same way (in English).

  1. 1I, a ruler in the church, send word to the noble sister who is of God's selection, and to her children, for whom I have true love; and not only I, but all who have knowledge of what is true;
