< 3 John 1 >
1 The Elder vnto the beloued Gaius, whom I loue in the trueth.
Hiche lekhathot hi upa John a kon ahi. Keiman kagol ngaitah, Gaius, thutah'a kangailut henga kajih ahi.
2 Beloued, I wish chiefly that thou prosperedst and faredst well as thy soule prospereth.
Deitah, nangma lhagaova nahat banga chu tahsa a jong nadam thei ding hi imalam jousea naphatpet ahiding kaginchat ahi.
3 For I reioyced greatly when the brethren came, and testified of the trueth that is in thee, how thou walkest in the trueth.
Tumasang jep'a thuhila pang kholjin phabep hung kileho chun tahsan naumna le thutah'a hinkho naman thudol chu eiseipeh uvin, eikipasah lheh uve.
4 I haue no greater ioy then these, that is, to heare that my sonnes walke in veritie.
Keiman kachaten thutah ajuiyu thudol kajah'a kipana sanga lenjo adang kanei theipoi.
5 Beloued, thou doest faithfully, whatsoeuer thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers,
Golngaitah, nangman nahetlou mi ahivanguva thuhila pang kholjin vahle ho nagel khohna hin, Pathena tahsan umtah nahi ti aphongdoh in ahi.
6 Which bare witnesse of thy loue before the Churches. Whom if thou bringest on their iourney as it beseemeth according to God, thou shalt doe well,
Amaho chun hikoma houbung jah a ngailutna neiya nanabolna thu chu aseiyuvin ahi. Hiti chun Pathen lunglhai sahnan hitobang thuhil ho ding chun thilgot pehna neijom teijin.
7 Because that for his Names sake they went forth, and tooke nothing of the Gentiles.
Ajeh chu amaho Pakai jal'a kholjin lea ahiuvin, chuti chun amahon tahsan neilouho koma imacha lalou ahiuve.
8 We therefore ought to receiue such, that we might be helpers to the trueth.
Hijeh chun eima ho tah in amaho hi ikithopiu ngai ahi, hitia chu amahon thutah thu ahilnauva amaho tohkhompi ihitheina dingu ahije.
9 I wrote vnto the Church: but Diotrephes which loueth to haue the preeminence among them, receiueth vs not.
Keiman houbung henga hiche thudol hi kajih in, hinlah Diotrephes, lamkai hinomna neipahin, keiho toh imacha a chan eineikhompi nompouve.
10 Wherefore if I come, I will call to your remembrance his deedes which he doeth, pratling against vs with malicious wordes, and not therewith content, neither he himselfe receiueth the brethren, but forbiddeth them that woulde, and thrusteth them out of the Church.
Keima kahung teng ama thilbol phabep le keiho dounaa athuseiya eimosonau thuphalou aseiya aboldoh ho kaphondoh ding ahi. Aman kholjin vahle thuhil ho alhunsahlou bou hilouvin, amaho kithopina jeng jong pehlou dingin aseiye. Chule amaho chun akikhop nauva, aman amaho chu houbunga konin anodoh in ahi.
11 Beloued, follow not that which is euill, but that which is good: he that doeth well, is of God: but he that doeth euill, hath not seene God.
Golngaitah, hichepa vettoh thei ahilou hin nangma nalung lutsah hih hen. Aphabou chu juiyin. Thilphabol ho chun Pathen chate ahiu aphotchennau ahin, chule thilsebol ho chun Pathen ahet lou u ahi ti Thutah'in hettoh sahna aneibouvin ahi.
12 Demetrius hath good report of al men, and of the trueth it selfe: yea, and wee our selues beare recorde, and ye know that our record is true.
Amitakip in Demetrius aseiphauvin ahi. Eimaho tah in hitima chu ama chung chang thu iseitheiyu ahi, chule keihon thutah kaseiyu nanghon naheuve.
13 I haue many things to write: but I will not with yncke and pen write vnto thee:
Keiman seibe ding tampi kaneiye, hinlah keiman hichu lekhathot'ah kahin sei nom poi.
14 For I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speake mouth to mouth. Peace be with thee. The friends salute thee. Greete the friends by name.
Ajeh chu nangma toh kimaitoa kimuto vahding kakinemin ahi. Chuphat leh kimaitoa ikihoulim ding ahi. Cham-lungmonna in umpiuvin. Hiche muna nagol hon chibai nahin peuve: Keima tah in chibai kahin bolna hi chuche muna umho henga achang cheh'un seipeh'un.
