< 2 John 1 >

1 THE elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;
Ame mutangunishi ndalembelenga mutukashi wasalwa ne Lesa, kayi ne bana bendi abo mbonsuni. Lino ntame ndenka nkusuni, nsombi ne abo bonse basuni cakubinga.
2 For the truth’s sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever. (aiōn g165)
Tumusuni pacebo cakubinga ico cili mulinjafwe, kayi ceti cibenganga mulinjfwe kwa cindi conse. (aiōn g165)
3 Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Lesa Bata ne Yesu Klistu Mwanendi, atupe lumuno ne luse kayi ne lumuno lube nenjafwe mu cakubinga ne mu lusuno.
4 I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
Ndalakondwa cancine ncine mpondalacaneti bana benu nabambi bali mubwikalo bwakukonka cakubinga mbuli Bata ncobalatwambila.
5 And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
Lino ndakusengenga omutukashi obe wasunika kwambeti twense tusunane. Nteko kwambeti ndakulembele mulawo umbi, nsombi niwopele usa ngotwalikukute kufuma pakutatika.
6 And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
Lusuno ndondambanga nilwakwambeti tukonkelenga Milawo ya Lesa mbuli ncomwalanyumfwa kufuma kumatatikilo, neco twelela kusunana.
7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
Pakwinga bandemi shibili bangi balesulu mucishi capanshi conse, nabo nkabalasumininga kwambeti Yesu walesa mbuli muntu. Bantu bamushobo uyu nibandemi shibili kayi nibalwani ba Yesu Klistu.
8 Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
Neco cenjelani kwambeti mutataya ico ncomwalasebensela kwambeti mukatambule cilambo cenu.
9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
Uliyense labulunga kukonkela kwiyisha kwa Yesu Klistu nsombi kabikilapo nabimbi, nkalipo ne Lesa. Nsombi uyo lasungunga ciyisho ico emuntu uli ne Lesa kayi ne Yesu.
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
Neco muntu wisa kulinjamwe kwisa akwiyisha bintu byabula kuba mbuli ibi, mutakamutambula mung'anda mwenu, kamutakambeti, “lumuno lube nenjobe.”
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Pakwinga uliyense lamupanga mitende lasuminishinga bwipishi bwakendi.
12 Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
Nkute bintu binga byakukwambila nsombi nkansuni kubilemba munkalata. Ndayeyenga kwisa akukufwakashila, kwambeti nkamwambile katuli twalangana, kayi ne kwambeti tukasangalale cancine ncine.
13 The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen.
Bana bankashi yakobe basalwa balakupanga mitende.
