2 John 1
1 The elder to the chosen lady, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those having known the truth,
he abhirucite kuriye, tvāṁ tava putrāṁśca prati prācīno'haṁ patraṁ likhāmi|
satyamatād yuṣmāsu mama premāsti kevalaṁ mama nahi kintu satyamatajñānāṁ sarvveṣāmeva| yataḥ satyamatam asmāsu tiṣṭhatyanantakālaṁ yāvaccāsmāsu sthāsyati| (aiōn g165)
3 there will be with you grace, mercy, [and] peace from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
piturīśvarāt tatpituḥ putrāt prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭācca prāpyo 'nugrahaḥ kṛpā śāntiśca satyatāpremabhyāṁ sārddhaṁ yuṣmān adhitiṣṭhatu|
4 I rejoiced exceedingly that I have found of your children walking in truth, even as we received a command from the Father;
vayaṁ pitṛto yām ājñāṁ prāptavantastadanusāreṇa tava kecid ātmajāḥ satyamatam ācarantyetasya pramāṇaṁ prāpyāhaṁ bhṛśam ānanditavān|
5 and now I implore you, lady, not as writing to you a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,
sāmpratañca he kuriye, navīnāṁ kāñcid ājñāṁ na likhannaham ādito labdhām ājñāṁ likhan tvām idaṁ vinaye yad asmābhiḥ parasparaṁ prema karttavyaṁ|
6 and this is love, that we may walk according to His commands; this is the command, even as you heard from the beginning, that you may walk in it,
aparaṁ premaitena prakāśate yad vayaṁ tasyājñā ācarema| ādito yuṣmābhi ryā śrutā seyam ājñā sā ca yuṣmābhirācaritavyā|
7 because many deceivers entered into the world, who are not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh; this one is he who is leading astray, and the antichrist.
yato bahavaḥ pravañcakā jagat praviśya yīśukhrīṣṭo narāvatāro bhūtvāgata etat nāṅgīkurvvanti sa eva pravañcakaḥ khrīṣṭāriścāsti|
8 See to yourselves that you may not lose the things that we worked for, but may receive a full reward;
asmākaṁ śramo yat paṇḍaśramo na bhavet kintu sampūrṇaṁ vetanamasmābhi rlabhyeta tadarthaṁ svānadhi sāvadhānā bhavataḥ|
9 everyone who is transgressing, and is not remaining in the teaching of the Christ, does not have God; he who is remaining in the teaching of the Christ, this one has both the Father and the Son;
yaḥ kaścid vipathagāmī bhūtvā khrīṣṭasya śikṣāyāṁ na tiṣṭhati sa īśvaraṁ na dhārayati khrīṣṭasya śijñāyāṁ yastiṣṭhati sa pitaraṁ putrañca dhārayati|
10 if anyone comes to you, and does not bear this teaching, do not receive him into the house, and do not say to him, “Greetings!”
yaḥ kaścid yuṣmatsannidhimāgacchan śikṣāmenāṁ nānayati sa yuṣmābhiḥ svaveśmani na gṛhyatāṁ tava maṅgalaṁ bhūyāditi vāgapi tasmai na kathyatāṁ|
11 For he who is saying to him, “Greetings,” has fellowship with his evil works.
yatastava maṅgalaṁ bhūyāditi vācaṁ yaḥ kaścit tasmai kathayati sa tasya duṣkarmmaṇām aṁśī bhavati|
12 Having many things to write to you, I did not intend [it] with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full.
yuṣmān prati mayā bahūni lekhitavyāni kintu patramasībhyāṁ tat karttuṁ necchāmi, yato 'smākam ānando yathā sampūrṇo bhaviṣyati tathā yuṣmatsamīpamupasthāyāhaṁ sammukhībhūya yuṣmābhiḥ sambhāṣiṣya iti pratyāśā mamāste|
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
tavābhirucitāyā bhaginyā bālakāstvāṁ namaskāraṁ jñāpayanti| āmen|
