< 2 John 1 >

1 The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those who know the truth,
Den äldste, den utvalda Frune, och hennes barn, hvilken jag älskar i sanningen; och icke jag allenast, utan ock alle som sanningen känt hafva;
2 for the truth's sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us for the age (aiōn g165):
För sanningens skull, som i oss blifver, och med oss vara skall i evighet. (aiōn g165)
3 Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Nåd, barmhertighet, frid af Gud Fader, och af Herranom Jesu Christo, Fadrens Son, i sanningene, och i kärlekenom, vare med eder.
4 I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.
Jag är mycket glad, att jag hafver funnit ibland din barn de der vandra i sanningene; såsom vi budet af Fadrenom fått hafve.
5 Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
Och nu beder jag dig, Fru; icke skrifver jag dig såsom ett nytt bud, utan det vi hadom af begynnelsen, att vi skolom älska oss inbördes.
6 This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
Och detta är kärleken, att vi vandrom efter hans bud. Detta är budet, som I hört hafven af begynnelsen, att I vandren deruti.
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.
Ty månge bedragare äro inkomne i verldena, de som icke bekänna Jesum Christum kommen vara i köttet; denne är bedragaren, och Antichrist.
8 Watch yourselves, that we do not lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.
Ser eder väl före, att vi icke borttappom det vi arbetat hafvom, utan att vi fåm full lön.
9 Whoever transgresses and does not remain in the teaching of Christ does not have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
Hvar och en som öfverträder, och icke blifver i Christi lärdom, han hafver ingen Gud; den der blifver i Christi lärdom, han hafver både Fadren och Sonen.
10 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not welcome him,
Kommer någor till eder, och icke hafver denna lärdomen med sig, undfår honom icke i hus, och helser honom icke heller;
11 for he who welcomes him participates in his evil deeds.
Ty den honom helsar, han är delaktig i hans onda gerningar.
12 Having many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
Jag hafver väl mycket att skrifva eder, dock ville jag icke med papper eller bläck; utan jag hoppas att komma till eder, och muntliga tala med eder, på det vår glädje skall vara fullkommen.
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
Helsa dig dine utvalda systers barn. Amen.
