2 Johan 1
1 Upa pa in thutak sung ah ka it mama; keima bek hi ngawl in, thutak a he theampo in zong a it, tealtuam nupi nu le a tate tung ah;
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 Pa Pathian kung pan a hi zong, Pathian Tapa Jesus Christ kung pan a hi zong, thutak le itna sung ah hesuakna, thuthiamna le thinnopna te note tung ah om tahen.
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 Pa kung pan in i san thupiak te bang in na tate thutak sung ah nungta hi, ci ka mu ciang in ka lungdam mama hi.
I rejoiced greatly that I found among thy children such as walked in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
5 Tu in na kung ah thupiak a thak bang in hong at ngawl khi hi, ahihang, upat tak nupi nu, a ki patcil pan i nei sa bang in eite khat le khat ki it tu in kong thum hi.
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 A thupiak te zui in i nuntak na sia itna hi. Piansakna pan na zaksa uh bang in ta sung ma ah na nuntak tu uh thupiak a hihi.
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 Jesus Christ sia cilesa taw hongpai hi, ci a hil ngawl leilot ngual theam te hileitung ah tum zo hi. Hi te sia ngualtheam le Christ langpan te a hihi.
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 I sepna te bothong ngawl in, thaman a cing in i nga thei natu, noma le noma kikeam vun.
Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which ye have wrought, but that ye may receive a full reward.
9 A kuamapo Christ i hilna sung ah kip ngawl in, a paikhial te in Pathian nei ngawl hi. Christ hilna sung ah a kho te in Pa le Tapa a ni ma in nei hi.
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 Tua ki hil na a nei ngawl khatpo no kung ah hongpai a hile, na inn uh ah tungsak heak vun, Pathian min taw nukset in paupui heak vun:
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 Banghangziam cile ama sia Pathian min taw nukset in na paupui uh le thupha ngawl a vawt na ah a pawlpui suak tu nu hi.
that biddeth him welcome, is partaker of his evil deeds.
12 No kung ah kong at nop tam mama om lai napi, laina le laitui taw at ngawl tu khi hi: ahihang keima noma kung ah hongpai in, maitang kisi in ki paupui tu lamen khi hi, tabang in i lungdam na dim tu hi.
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 Tealtuam na suapui nu i tate in zong nangma nukset in hong paupui hi. Amen.
The children of thy elect sister salute thee. Amen.
