2 Yohana 1

1 Une chilongola junjekulwipe, ngunnembela mmwe Achikulu unsagulikwe ni Akunnungu pamo ni achiŵana ŵenu ŵangwanonyela mu usyene. Ngaŵa une jikape jungwanonyela, nambo iyoyo ni aŵala wose ŵakuumanyilila usyene akunnonyela ŵanyamwe,

This letter comes from the elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth. Not just from me, but from everyone who knows the truth,

2 ligongo lya usyene wo waukutama munkati mwetu, nombe chiutame nowe moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn g165)

because the truth lives in us and will be with us forever. (aiōn g165)

3 Akunnungu Atati, ni Che Yesu Kilisito, Mwana jwa Atati, atupe umbone ni chanasa ni chitendewele mu usyene ni unonyelo.

May grace, mercy and peace continue to be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and in love.

4 Nasengwile nnope panaiweni ŵanache ŵenu ŵampepe, akulonjela mu usyene mpela ila Atati yatite pakutulajisya.

I was delighted to discover that some of your children are following the truth, just as the Father commanded us.

5 Ni sambano Achikulu unsagulikwe ni Akunnungu, ngummenda ngaŵa kwakunlembela lilajisyo lyasambano, nambo ngunnembela lilajisyo lilalila litwalipochele chitandile kundanda kuti tunonyelane jwine ni jwine.

Now I'm telling you, dear lady, not as a new instruction, but following what we've understood from the beginning, that we should love one another.

6 Weleu ni unonyelo, kuti tutamaje nkugakunda malajisyo ga Akunnungu. Lyeleli ni lilajisyo lya Akunnungu, limwalipikene chitandile kundanda kuti, ntameje nkunonyelana jwine ni jwine.

This is what love is: we should follow God's commands. The command, just as you heard right from the beginning, is that you should live in love.

7 Ŵakulambusya achajinji akopochele pachilambo, ŵandu ŵa ngakwitichisya kuti Che Yesu Kilisito ŵaiche ni ŵaliji mundu. Mundu mpela jwelejo ali jwaunami ni jwakwakanila Kilisito.

I'm telling you this because many deceivers have left and gone out into the world. They don't accept that Jesus Christ has come as a human being. Anyone like this is a deceiver and an antichrist.

8 Nipele, nlilolechesye mwachinsyene, kuti nkaisoyasya aila indu imwaipanganyichisye masengo, mwatendaga yeleyo ngampochela mbote jemalilwe.

Be careful that you don't lose what we've worked so hard for, and that you receive all that you should.

9 Mundu jwalijose jwangakutama mmajiganyo ga Kilisito nambo akonjechesya ine mmajiganyo go, jwelejo ngakukamulangana ni Akunnungu. Nambo mundu jwalijose jwakutama mmajiganyo go, akukamulangana ni wose ŵanaŵaŵili, Atati ni Mwanagwe.

All those who become extremists and don't continue to follow the teaching of Christ don't have God with them. Those who continue to follow the teaching of Christ have both the Father and the Son with them.

10 Mundu jwalijose aikaga kukwenu ni ngakunjiganya majiganyo ga Kilisito, nkampochela mmajumba genu namose kunkomasya.

If people come to you and don't show evidence of Christ's teaching, don't take them in, don't welcome them—

11 Pakuŵa jwakumpochela mundu mpela jwelejo akukamulangana nawo mu ipanganyo yao yangalumbana.

for if you encourage them you share in their evil work.

12 Ngwete gamajinji gakunsalila, nambo ngangusaka kutenda yele kwa kunlembela, nambo ngulolela chiiche kukwenu ni kukunguluka ni ŵanyamwe tuchiloleganaga kuti lukondwa lwetu lumalilwe.

I have so many things to tell you that I won't write any more with paper and ink, for I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face. How happy that would make us!

13 Ŵanache ŵa alumbu ŵenu jwasagulikwe ni Akunnungu akunkomasya.

Greetings to you from the children of your chosen sister.
