1 Na, Asigilai Dunu da di, Ga: iyase, na dogolegei na: iyado, dima meloa dedesa.
The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in truth.
2 Na dogolegei na: iyado! Dia a: silibu hou da hahawane amola gasa bagade, amo na dawa: Dia da: i hodo da amo defele esaloma: ne amola di da hahawane esaloma: ne, na Godema sia: ne gadosa.
Beloved, I pray for thee to prosper concerning all things, and to be healthy, just as thy soul prospers.
3 Di da dafawane hou amo ganodini eso huluane esalalala. Ninia Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu eno da dia dafawane hou eso huluane mae yolesili hamonana, amo nama adomusa: misiba: le, na da hahawane bagade ba: i.
For I rejoiced exceedingly of brothers coming and testifying to the truth of thee, just as thou walk in truth.
4 Na da na mano ilia dafawane dawa: su hou amo ganodini lala, amo nababeba: le, baligili hahawane naba.
I have no greater joy than these things that I hear my children walking in truth.
5 Na dogolegei na: iyado! Dia da dia Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu ili mae yolesili fidilalebeba: le, na da nodosa. Dia musa: hame ba: i Gelesu dunu amola bagade fidisu.
Beloved, thou do a faithful thing, whatever thou work for the brothers and for strangers,
6 Amo dunu da dia asigi hou amo nini Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dunu guiguda: esala, ilima olelei. Amo dunu ilia bu logoga ahoasea, ilia da Gode hahawane ba: ma: ne masunu da defea. Amaiba: le, dia ili bu fidima: ne na da dima edegesa.
who testified about thy love in sight of the congregation, whom thou will do well having helped send on their way worthily of God.
7 Bai ilia Gelesu Ea hawa: hamomusa: gini asi. Ilia Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui dunu ilia fidisu hame lai.
For they went forth on behalf of the Name, taking nothing from the Gentiles.
8 Amaiba: le, ninia Yesu Ea hou lalegagui dunu da amo dunu ilia dafawane sia: olelebe hawa: hamosu fidimu amola gilisili hamomu da defea.
We therefore ought to welcome such men, so that we might become fellow workmen for the truth.
9 Na da dia Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi ilima meloa fonobahadi dedene i. Be Daiodalifisi da hi hanaiba: le hina hou hamomusa: dawa: lalebeba: le, e da na sia: nabimu higasa.
I wrote to the congregation, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first of them, did not accept us.
10 Na da dilima masea, na da hi hou hamoi amo dilima olelemu. Ea da ninia hou wadela: sa amola nini hou olelesea bagadewane ogogosa. Be amo hou baligili, e da Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi dilima manebeba: le, ilima hame yosia: sa. Amola nowa dunu da ilima yosia: musa: dawa: sea, Daiodalifisi da amo dunu ilia fidisu logo hedofasa amola ilia Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi amoga gadili sefasimusa: dawa: lala.
Because of this, if I come, I will remember his works that he does, prating against us with evil words. And not being satisfied in these, he himself does not even accept the brothers, and he forbids those who would, and expels them out of the congregation.
11 Na dogolegei na: iyado! Wadela: i hou amoma mae fa: no bobogele, dia hou moloidafa amoma fa: no bobogema. Nowa da hou moloidafa hamosea da Godema madelagi dagoi. Be nowa da wadela: i hou hamosa da Gode hame dawa:
Beloved, do not imitate the evil, but the good. The man doing right is of God. The man doing wrong has not seen God.
12 Dunu huluane da Dimidaliase ea hou dawa: beba: le, nodosa. E da dafawane hou hamonanebeba: le, hou moloidafa hamosu dunu ba: sa. Ninia amola, ea hou dawa: beba: le nodosa. Ninia sia: da dafawane, di dawa:
Demetrius has been testified by all, and by the truth itself. But we also testify, and ye know that our testimony is true.
13 Na da dima sia: mu bagade gala, be na da amo sia: meloaga dedemu higasa.
I had many things to write, but I did not want to write to thee by pen and ink.
14 Na da dima hedolowane misini, dia odagia sia: mu hanai gala. Na da olofosu dima dialoma: ne dawa: lala. Dia na: iyado dunu huluane da ilia asigi sia: dima adosisa. Dia ninia na: iyado huluane amoma ninia asigidafa sia: adosima. Sia: Ama Dagoi
But I hope to see thee straightaway, and we will speak mouth to mouth. Peace to thee. The friends salute thee. Salute the friends by name.
