< 3 Yone 1 >
1 Na, Asigilai Dunu da di, Ga: iyase, na dogolegei na: iyado, dima meloa dedesa.
The elder to Gaius the beloved, 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 that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your 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 greatly when brothers came and testified about your truth, even as you 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 this: to hear about 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, you do a faithful work in whatever you accomplish for those who are brothers and 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.
They have testified about your love before the assembly. You will do well to send them forward on their journey in a way worthy of God,
7 Bai ilia Gelesu Ea hawa: hamomusa: gini asi. Ilia Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui dunu ilia fidisu hame lai.
because for the sake of the Name they went out, 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 receive such, that we may be fellow workers 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 assembly, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept what we say.
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.
Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, he does not receive the brothers himself, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly.
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 that which is evil, but that which is good. He who does good is of God. He who does evil 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 the testimony of all, and of the truth itself; yes, we also testify, and you 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 to you, but I am unwilling to write to you with ink and pen;
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 you soon. Then we will speak face to face. Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.
