2 Yohana 1
1 Churji nindi iwandi a che ni wa u mirli wandi minyeme niba kpukpome ana hime ni kankirzi muwa, nibiwandi bato njanji.
THE presbyter to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all who have known the truth:
because of the truth which abideth in us, and shall be with us for ever: (aiōn g165)
3 Tibi ni malati, ni sisro, ba sonita ni rji ubati yeni yesu almasihu vreji ni inyi njanji ninyeme.
grace, mercy, peace be with you from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
4 min ngyiri kpukpome niwandi mito imri me bari bazere ni miyi njaji niyu wandi kikpa ngwroyi nitimbu.
I rejoiced greatly that I found thy children walking in truth, as we have received commandment from the Father.
5 zizaa misi breu iyiko minasin ngya nwrosamambaniwuna iwayikife tunise tunturmu, ndikinyeme nikpambwu.
And now I beseech thee, lady, not as writing to thee a new commandment, but that which we have had from the beginning, that we should love one another.
6 iwayi, i iwayimba binwro, abini wandi biwo in mumla, ndiduyi zere miyima.
And this is love, that we should walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, as ye have heard from the beginning, That ye should walk in it.
7 bi gyurundi ba rju ni gbunblu biwandi banayeme ndi iverji ayenan diana ba babiandi ba gyrundi a nala nitingu ni vrerji.
For many deceivers are gone out into the world, who do not confess Jesus the Messiah as come in the flesh. Such a one is a deceiver and an antichrist.
8 ya kpambi, nahama ni kpe wandi kitindu tuma na yi, kpa sambi.
Take heed to yourselves that we lose not the things which we have wrought, but receive a full reward.
9 indyi wandi azerehini koshishi anahe myi nwro Almasihu na ana henirjina. iwandi a wonnwroa aheni tia-mba vre.
Every one that transgresseth and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God: he that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, this man holdeth both the Father and the Son.
10 indyi wandiaynyi anakpawroyina, nakpa nikombina, nachi menayi.
If any person come unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into the house, nor say to him, Welcome.
11 mpempebi iwandi achia bati kyumban ni miyi memkppe wandi anitia.
He that biddeth him welcome, takes part in his wicked works.
12 mihenikpe gbugbwu iwandi misongya niwa u mbe ni-ma ungya na tsramena. tokimame misingyri soye kini treni kpanbu shishi mba shishi, nindu kinkiasrombu ndu shune.
Having many things to write unto you, I would not do it with paper and ink; but I hope to come unto you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be complete.
13 imirli v vayime iwandi binyeme niwu bachiu.
The children of thy elect sister salute thee. Amen.
