2 John 1:12

12 1Though I have many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, so that [a]your 2joy may be made full.

2 John 1:12 In-Context

10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting;
11 for the one who gives him a greeting participates in his evil deeds.
12 Though I have many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, so that your joy may be made full.
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you.
