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 the 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.
I pray that you may prosper, beloved, in every way, and be in good health, even as your soul is prospering.
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 was glad when brothers came and bore testimony to your truth, as indeed you are passing your life 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 that my children are passing their lives in the 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.
You are acting faithfully, beloved, in whatever you are doing for the brothers and the 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 borne testimony to your love before the church. You will do well to speed them 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.
since for the sake of the Name they have started 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.
Hence we ought to support such, so that we may become 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 have written somewhat to the church; but Diotrephes, who love to take the lead among them, does not receive me.
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.
Do them when I come I will recall to mind the deeds which he is doing, prating against me with wicked words. Not satisfied with that, he refuses to receive the brothers, forbids those that would receive them, and excommunicates them from the church.
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:
Do not imitate what is evil, beloved, but that which is good. He who does good is of God; he who does evil has never gazed on 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:
All men bear testimony to Demetrius, and so does the truth itself. I also bear testimony to him; and you know that my testimony is true.
13 Na da dima sia: mu bagade gala, be na da amo sia: meloaga dedemu higasa.
I have a great deal to write to you, but I do not want to write you with 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
I am hoping soon to see you, and then we shall talk face to face. Peace be to you! The friends send their salutation. Salute the friends by name.
