3 John 1
1 This letter comes from the elder to Gaius, my dear friend, whom I love in the truth.
པྲཱཙཱིནོ ྅ཧཾ སཏྱམཏཱད྄ ཡསྨིན྄ པྲཱིཡེ ཏཾ པྲིཡཏམཾ གཱཡཾ པྲཏི པཏྲཾ ལིཁཱམི།
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.
ཧེ པྲིཡ, ཏཝཱཏྨཱ ཡཱདྲྀཀ྄ ཤུབྷཱནྭིཏསྟཱདྲྀཀ྄ སཪྻྭཝིཥཡེ ཏཝ ཤུབྷཾ སྭཱསྠྱཉྩ བྷཱུཡཱཏ྄།
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.
བྷྲཱཏྲྀབྷིརཱགཏྱ ཏཝ སཏྱམཏསྱཱརྠཏསྟྭཾ ཀཱིདྲྀཀ྄ སཏྱམཏམཱཙརསྱེཏསྱ སཱཀྵྱེ དཏྟེ མམ མཧཱནནྡོ ཛཱཏཿ།
4 Nothing makes me happier than to hear how my dear friends are following the truth.
མམ སནྟཱནཱཿ སཏྱམཏམཱཙརནྟཱིཏིཝཱརྟྟཱཏོ མམ ཡ ཨཱནནྡོ ཛཱཡཏེ ཏཏོ མཧཏྟརོ ནཱསྟི།
5 My friend, you show you are trustworthy in what you're doing by looking after the brothers, even those you don't know.
ཧེ པྲིཡ, བྷྲཱཏྲྀན྄ པྲཏི ཝིཤེཥཏསྟཱན྄ ཝིདེཤིནོ བྷྲྀཏྲྀན྄ པྲཏི ཏྭཡཱ ཡདྱཏ྄ ཀྲྀཏཾ ཏཏ྄ སཪྻྭཾ ཝིཤྭཱསིནོ ཡོགྱཾ།
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,
ཏེ ཙ སམིཏེཿ སཱཀྵཱཏ྄ ཏཝ པྲམྣཿ པྲམཱཎཾ དཏྟཝནྟཿ, ཨཔརམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརཡོགྱརཱུཔེཎ ཏཱན྄ པྲསྠཱཔཡཏཱ ཏྭཡཱ སཏྐརྨྨ ཀཱརིཥྱཏེ།
7 for they are traveling in his name, not accepting anything from non-believers.
ཡཏསྟེ ཏསྱ ནཱམྣཱ ཡཱཏྲཱཾ ཝིདྷཱཡ བྷིནྣཛཱཏཱིཡེབྷྱཿ ཀིམཔི ན གྲྀཧཱིཏཝནྟཿ།
8 We ought to support them so we can share together in the truth.
ཏསྨཱད྄ ཝཡཾ ཡཏ྄ སཏྱམཏསྱ སཧཱཡཱ བྷཝེམ ཏདརྠམེཏཱདྲྀཤཱ ལོཀཱ ཨསྨཱབྷིརནུགྲཧཱིཏཝྱཱཿ།
9 I did write about this to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves being in charge, refuses to accept our authority.
སམིཏིཾ པྲཏྱཧཾ པཏྲཾ ལིཁིཏཝཱན྄ ཀིནྟུ ཏེཥཱཾ མདྷྱེ ཡོ དིཡཏྲིཕིཿ པྲདྷཱནཱཡཏེ སོ ྅སྨཱན྄ ན གྲྀཧླཱཏི།
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.
ཨཏོ ྅ཧཾ ཡདོཔསྠཱསྱཱམི ཏདཱ ཏེན ཡདྱཏ྄ ཀྲིཡཏེ ཏཏ྄ སཪྻྭཾ ཏཾ སྨཱརཡིཥྱཱམི, ཡཏཿ ས དུཪྻྭཱཀྱཻརསྨཱན྄ ཨཔཝདཏི, ཏེནཱཔི ཏྲྀཔྟིཾ ན གཏྭཱ སྭཡམཔི བྷྲཱཏྲྀན྄ ནཱནུགྲྀཧླཱཏི ཡེ ཙཱནུགྲཧཱིཏུམིཙྪནྟི ཏཱན྄ སམིཏིཏོ ྅པི བཧིཥྐརོཏི།
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.

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.

13 I have so much to say to you, but I don't want to do it in writing with pen and ink.

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.
