3 Yohans 1

1 Arikon t shuntso, shunetso Gayiyossh, Tiyoke eenashoke,

The elder, unto Gaius the beloved, whom, I, love in truth.

2 T shuntsono! n be jamo neesh b́ kááwitwok'o, jeenono nwotitwok'o, jam weeron neesh b́sheengetwok'owe Ik'o tk'oniri.

Beloved! concerning all things, I pray thou mayest be prospering, and be in health, even as, thy soul, is prospering,

3 Arosh ni amanetsok'onat aron n beeyirwok'on krstiyani wotts eshu ik ikwots waat bokeewor aydek'atniye t geneúwi.

For I rejoiced exceedingly, at brethren coming and bearing witness unto thy truth, —even as, thou, in truth, art walking.

4 T nana'wots arikon ananefetst bobeyrwok'o shishoniye bogo taan geneúshit keewo aaliye.

I have no, greater, favour than these things, that I should be hearing that, my own children, in the truth, are walking.

5 T shuntsono! neesh dab ib bowotiyalor eshu eshuwotssh amanek fine nfiniri.

Beloved! a faithful thing, art thou doing, whatsoever thou shalt accomplish for them that are brethren, and withal strangers, —

6 Bowere boosh shunon nfints fino Ik'i maa shinatse kishdek't keewrnee, andoor Ik'o genee'ushitwok'on bowerindosh boon ntep'al sheenge.

Who have borne witness to thy love before the assembly: whom thou wilt do, nobly, to set forward worthily of God.

7 Krstossh finosh bokeshor amanerawwotsoke eegor tep'o dek'keyatsnee.

For, in behalf of The Name, have they gone forth, taking, nothing, from them of the nations.

8 Ari fin finrwotsnton finirwotsi nowotitwok'o hanotsk'o ashuwotsnton fino noon geyife.

We, therefore ought to be sustaining such as these, that we may become, fellowworkers, with the truth.

9 Haniyere shinon Ik' moosh wosho guut're b́teshi, ernmo Ik' maa jish geyirwo Diyotrefis ti ettso de'atse.

I wrote something unto the assembly; but, he who is fond of taking the first place among them—Diotrephes, doth not make us welcome.

10 Eshe itok twoor bí noon c'ashfetst, ketifetst b́ k'alts gond fin jamo keewitwe, man bísh bodob́k'aye bí b́ tookish eshu eshuwotsi de'ake. K'oshwotswere bo de'awok'owe b́bazifoni. Ik'i mootsnowere boon b́gishefoni.

For this cause, if I come, I will bring to remembrance his works which he is doing, —with wicked words, prating against us; and, not content with these, he neither, himself, maketh the brethren welcome, but, them who are minded [to do it], he forbiddeth, and, out of the assembly, doth cast [them].

11 T shuntsono! sheengo arowe bako gondo ark'aye. Sheeng finiru jamo Ik'ikee. Gond finirwonmó Ik'o be'atse.

Beloved! be not thou imitating what is bad, but what is good. He that doeth good, is, of God: he that doeth what is bad, hath not seen God.

12 Dimet'ros jangosh ash jamo sheengkewon bísh gawirunee. Arunuwere b tookon bísh gawitwanee. Noowere gawitwone, nogawonwere ar b́ wotok'o danfnee.

Unto Demetrius, hath witness been borne by all and by the truth itself; howbeit, we also, bear witness, and thou knowest that, our witness, is, true.

13 Neesh guut'osh t geetso ay keewo detsfe b́ teshi, wotowa eree worek'atats neesh guut'o geeratse.

Many things, had I to write unto thee, —but I am unwilling, with ink and pen, to be writing;

14 Karnon neen bek'oshe jangirwe, manoor noonon keewetwone. Jeeno neesh wotowe. Hanoki n tooh tohuwots neesh jamo t'intsirune. Neewere no tohuwotssh jamo ik ikon t'intsuwe.

I hope, however, straightway, to see thee, and, mouth to mouth, will we talk. Peace be unto thee. The friends salute thee. Salute the friends by name.
