3 John 1
1 This letter comes from the elder to Gaius, my dear friend, whom I love in the truth.
Nseya kwa Gayo mpenzi j'hanun'ganili mubhukweli.
2 My friend, I pray most of all that you're doing well and are in good physical health, for I know you're doing well spiritually.
N'ganwa, nikuso'mela ufanikibhwayi mu mambo ghoha ni kuj'ha Ni afya j'honofu, Kama vile roho j'haku kyaj'hifanikibhwa.
3 I was delighted when some fellow-believers arrived and told me about your commitment to the truth, and how you continue living in the truth.
Maana nahobhwiki sana bhwakati panabhalibhu ni bhalongo bhangu bhabhehidili ni kuh'omesya bhushuhuda juu j'ha bhukweli bhwaku, kama vile kyaghwil'ota mubhukweli.
4 Nothing makes me happier than to hear how my dear friends are following the truth.
Njedumu ni furaha zaidi j'ha e`j'he, kup'heleka kuj'ha bhana bhangu bhigenda mubhukweli.
5 My friend, you show you are trustworthy in what you're doing by looking after the brothers, even those you don't know.
N'ganwa, j'heghilota nibhueminifu pawika bhahudumila bhalongobhangu. Na bhahesya.
6 They have spoken well about your love in front of the church. Please be so kind as to send them on their journey in a way that God would appreciate,
Ambabho bah'omisi bhushuhuda bhwa luganu bhwako palongola pa kanisa. Gwik'ete kinofu kubhasafirisha mu safwari syabho kwa namna ambaj'ho j'hikan'ganisya K'yara.
7 for they are traveling in his name, not accepting anything from non-believers.
Kwa ndabha j'ha lihina bhalotili bila kutola khenu kyokyoha k'hela kuh'oma kwa bhenu bha mataifa.
8 We ought to support them so we can share together in the truth.
Henu twilondeka kubhakaribisya bhanu kama abha ili tuj'helayi bhabhomba mbombo bhaj'henu kwa ndabha j'ha bhukweli.
9 I did write about this to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves being in charge, refuses to accept our authority.
Nalij'handikili likusanyiku lijambo fulani, lakini Diotrofe, j'hapeganili kuj'ha ghwa kabhwandelu mugati mwabhene, ikakubaliana lepi ni tete.
10 So if I do visit, I will make it clear what he's been doing. He's been making malicious accusations against us. Not satisfied with doing that, he refuses to welcome any other brothers. He won't let anyone else welcome them either, and throws those who do so out of the church.
Henu, Kama nibetakuj'ha kuhida nibetakuj'ha kughak'homboka matendu ghake ghaibhomba, jinsi kyaijabha malobhi mabaya kinyume natu. Andhiki lepi ni matendo agha, muene akabhayambelela lepi bhalongo munu. hata ikabhabesya bhangi ambabho bhinoghela kubhakaribisya abhu bhalonngo bhinu ni kubhabhenga bhah'omeyi mu likusanyiku.
11 My friend, don't imitate what is evil, but what is good. Those who do what's good belong to God; those who do evil don't know God.
Mpenzi ukatakuj'hesya kyakij'hele kibhibhi, Bali j'hesiaghe byabij'hele kinofu. Muene j'haibhomba manofu night K'yara; nimuene j'haibhomba mabhibhi ambwedumu K'yara.
12 Everyone speaks well of Demetrius—and the truth does so too! We also speak well of him, and you know we tell the truth.
Demotrio ashuhudibhu nibhoha nibhukweli bhene. Tete pia tuj'he mashahindi, na mmanyili kuj'ha bhushuhuda bhitu bhwa bhwikweli.
13 I have so much to say to you, but I don't want to do it in writing with pen and ink.
Njenaghu mambo mingi gha kukulembela, lakini nilondalepi kukulembela kwa kalamu ni bhwino.
14 I hope to see you soon so we can talk face to face. May peace be with you! The friends here send their greetings to you. Please personally greet our friends there by name.
Bali nitarajila kutubhona karibuni apa, na twibetakumbona kulongela naghwe pamihu kwa pamihu. Amani ij'helayi pamonga naghwe. Bhamanyani bhikuponesya. Bhaponesiayi bhamanyani kila mmonga kwa lihina lyake.
