1. Ὁ πρεσβύτερος πρὸς τὴν κυρίαν, τὴν ὁποίαν ὁ Θεὸς ἐξέλεξε, καὶ πρὸς τὰ παιδιά της, τοὺς ὁποίους ἐγὼ ἀγαπῶ ἀληθινὰ καὶ ὄχι ἐγὼ μόνον, ἀλλὰ καὶ ὅλοι ὅσοι ἐγνώρισαν τὴν ἀλήθειαν,
2. ἕνεκα τῆς ἀληθείας, ἡ ὁποία μένει μέσα μας καὶ θὰ εἶναι μαζί μας αἰωνίως.
3. Χάρις, ἔλεος καὶ εἰρήνη θὰ εἶναι μαζί σας ἀπὸ τὸν Θεὸν Πατέρα καὶ ἀπὸ τὸν Κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν τὸν Υἱὸν τοῦ Πατέρα, ἐν ἀληθείᾳ καὶ ἀγάπῃ.
