3 John 1
1 The Elder vnto the beloued Gaius, whom I loue in the trueth.
Umughogholo, kwa gayo umughane, unonimughani le nhu vwakyang`ani.
2 Beloued, I wish chiefly that thou prosperedst and faredst well as thy soule prospereth.
Mughanike, nikukusumulia ukagule ku iisi sooni kange nha kuuti uve nhu mbiili unofu, ndavule vule inhumbula jako vule jikagulike.
3 For I reioyced greatly when the brethren came, and testified of the trueth that is in thee, how thou walkest in the trueth.
Ulwakuva nikahovwike kyoongo unsiki yenivulilue nikahovwike kyoongo unsiki yenivulilue nha vanyalukolo vanovakisile kange nakuhumia uvwolesi nhu vwakyang`ani vwako, ndavule vule ghuluta mu vwakyang`ani.
4 I haue no greater ioy then these, that is, to heare that my sonnes walke in veritie.
Nilivuvule ulukelo uluvaha kyoongo mu ulu, kupulika kuuti avana vango vighenda muvwakyang`ani.
5 Beloued, thou doest faithfully, whatsoeuer thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers,
Mughanike, ghuuta mu vwitike panoghukavavombela avanyalukolo nha vahesia.
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,
Vano vahumisie uvwa lughano lwako pavulongolo palukong`ano. Ghuvombia vunofu pikuvaghendesia mulughendo luvanave ku siila jino jimunoghile u Nguluve.
7 Because that for his Names sake they went forth, and tooke nothing of the Gentiles.
Ulwakuva vwimila vwa, valyalutile nambe kutoola ikinu kimongo kuhuma muvaanhu ava mufisina.
8 We therefore ought to receiue such, that we might be helpers to the trueth.
Pauluo, tunoghile kukuvupila avaanhu ndavule ava, ulwakutive vavomba mbombo vanofu vwimila kyang`ani.
9 I wrote vnto the Church: but Diotrephes which loueth to haue the preeminence among them, receiueth vs not.
Nikalilembiile ilipugha ilisio ilio, looli u Diotrofe, juno ilonela kuuti ave ghwa kwasia muvamo muvanave naikwiting`ana nusue.
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.
Pauluo, nave nikwisa nikusikumbuka imbombo sa mweene sino ikusivomba, ndavule pannoijova nhi mbombo iisi umweene jujuo naikuvupila avanyalukolo. Kange ikuvaka na avange vanovinoghelua pikuvupila avanyalukolo avuo napikuvadagha vahuume mulipugha.
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.
Mughane, nungeghaghe kino kivivi, looli ighagha kino kinofu. Umweene juno ivomba vunofu ghwe ghwa Nguluve; kange nhumweene junoivomba amavivi namwaghile u Nguluve.
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.
U Demetrio avolelilue kange vooni nuvwakyang`ani vuvuo. Najusue kange tulivolesi, kange ghukagula kuuti uvwolesi vwiitu vwakyang`ani.
13 I haue many things to write: but I will not with yncke and pen write vnto thee:
Nilinagho minga aghakukulembela, looli nanilonda pikukulembela nhi kalamu ija n`kala nambe nhi kalamu ija vwiino.
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.
Looli nihuvila kukuvona anala pipi, kange tujovagha nune maaso na maaso. U lutengano luve palikimo nuve. Amanyani vikukuhungila. Vahungilaghe avamanyani umunhu ghweeni nhilitavua lya mweene.
