2 Ivanova 1
1 Starješina izabranoj Gospođi i djeci njezinoj koju ja ljubim u Istini - a ne samo ja nego i svi koji upoznaše Istinu -
The Elder, unto an elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not, I, alone, but all those also who understand the truth, —
For the sake of the truth that abideth in us, and, with us, shall be unto times age-abiding, (aiōn g165)
3 Bila s nama milost, milosrđe i mir od Boga Oca i od Sina Očeva Isusa Krista u istini i ljubavi!
Favour, mercy, peace shall be with us, from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
4 Obradovah se veoma što sam među tvojom djecom našao takve koji hode u istini, kao što primismo zapovijed od Oca.
I rejoiced exceedingly, in that I had found, from among thy children, such as were walking in truth, even as, a commandment, we received from the Father.
5 I sada te molim, Gospođo, ne kao da ti novu zapovijed pišem, nego onu koju smo imali od početka: da ljubimo jedni druge.
And, now, I request thee, lady, not as writing, a new commandment, unto thee, but one which we were holding from the beginning—That we should be loving one another.
6 A ovo je ta ljubav: da živimo po zapovijedima njegovim. To je zapovijed, kao što čuste od početka, da u njoj živite.
And, this, is love, that we should be walking according to his commandments: This, is, the commandment, even as ye heard from the beginning, that, therein, ye should be walking.
7 Jer iziđoše na svijet mnogi zavodnici koji ne ispovijedaju Isusa Krista koji dolazi u tijelu. To je zavodnik i Antikrist.
Because, many deceivers, have gone out into the world, they who do not confess Jesus Christ coming in flesh: This, is the deceiver and the antichrist.
8 Čuvajte se da ne izgubite što ste stekli, nego da primite potpunu plaću.
Be taking heed unto yourselves, lest ye lose what things we earned, —but, a full reward, ye may duly receive.
9 Tko god pretjera i ne ostane u nauku Kristovu, nema Boga. Tko ostaje u nauku, ima i Oca i Sina.
Every one that taketh a lead, and abideth not in the teaching of Christ, hath not, God: he that abideth in the teaching, the same, hath, both the Father and the Son.
10 Ako tko dolazi k vama i ne donosi tog nauka, ne primajte ga u kuću i ne pozdravljajte ga.
If anyone cometh unto you and, this teaching, doth not bring, be not receiving him home, and, Joy to thee! do not say;
11 Jer tko ga pozdravlja, sudjeluje u njegovim zlim djelima.
For, he that biddeth him rejoice, hath fellowship with his wicked works.
12 Mnogo bih vam imao pisati, ali ne htjedoh na papiru i crnilom, nego se nadam da ću doći k vama i iz usta u usta govoriti da radost vaša bude potpuna.
Though I had many things, unto you, to write, I was not minded [to say them] with paper and ink; but I hope to come unto you, and, mouth to mouth, to talk, —that your joy may be made full.
13 Pozdravljaju te djeca tvoje izabrane sestre.
The children of thy chosen sister salute thee.
