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 elder unto the excellent Lady, and her children, whom I love in truth: and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;
for the sake of the truth which dwelleth in us, and will 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, and 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 among thy children such as walked in truth, as we 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 had from the beginning, that we may love one another.
6 iwayi, i iwayimba binwro, abini wandi biwo in mumla, ndiduyi zere miyima.
And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, as ye 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 come out into the world, who disown that Jesus Christ is 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.
Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which ye have wrought, but that ye may receive a full reward.
9 indyi wandi azerehini koshishi anahe myi nwro Almasihu na ana henirjina. iwandi a wonnwroa aheni tia-mba vre.
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God: but he, that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, hath both the Father and the Son.
10 indyi wandiaynyi anakpawroyina, nakpa nikombina, nachi menayi.
Now if any one come unto you, and bringeth not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, nor wish him success: for he,
11 mpempebi iwandi achia bati kyumban ni miyi memkppe wandi anitia.
that biddeth him welcome, is partaker of his evil deeds.
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 with paper and ink: but I hope to come unto you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full.
13 imirli v vayime iwandi binyeme niwu bachiu.
The children of thy elect sister salute thee. Amen.
