* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
So if I come, I will call attention to his malicious slander against us. And unsatisfied with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers and forbids those who want to do so, even putting them out of the church.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, neither does he himself receive the brothers, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly.
World English Bible (WEB)
Wherefore{G1223}{G5124}, if{G1437} I come{G2064}{(G5632)}, I will remember{G5279}{(G5692)} his{G846} deeds{G2041} which{G3739} he doeth{G4160}{(G5719)}, prating against{G5396}{(G5723)} us{G2248} with malicious{G4190} words{G3056}: and{G2532} not{G3361} content{G714}{(G5746)} therewith{G1909}{G5125}, neither{G3777} doth{G1926} he himself{G846} receive{G1926}{(G5736)} the brethren{G80}, and{G2532} forbiddeth{G2967}{(G5719)} them that would{G1014}{(G5740)}, and{G2532} casteth{G1544}{(G5719)} them out of{G1537} the church{G1577}.
Strong's King James
Because of this, if I come, I will remind him of the deeds he is doing and the evil words he is gossiping about us. Not content with this, he does not welcome the brothers, forbids those who want to, and even expels them from the assembly!
The F.O.G*
[10] So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense about us. Not satisfied with that, he refuses to welcome the fellow believers. He also stops those who want to do so and puts them out of the church. His actions are like poison in the body of Messiah.So, if I come, I will remind him of his actions, as he maliciously gossips against us with evil words. Not content with this, he also refuses to welcome the brothers and prevents others from doing so by banning them from the church assembly!
The F.O.G Paraphrase
because of this, if I may come, I will cause him to remember his works that he doth, with evil words prating against us; and not content with these, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and those intending he doth forbid, and out of the assembly he doth cast.
