3 John 1
1 The elder, to Gaius, the beloved, whom I love in the truth.
| اَلشَّيْخُ، إِلَى غَايُسَ ٱلْحَبِيبِ ٱلَّذِي أَنَا أُحِبُّهُ بِٱلْحَقِّ. | ١ |
2 Beloved, I pray, that with respect to all things, you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.
| أَيُّهَا ٱلْحَبِيبُ، فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ أَرُومُ أَنْ تَكُونَ نَاجِحًا وَصَحِيحًا، كَمَا أَنَّ نَفْسَكَ نَاجِحَةٌ. | ٢ |
3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came, and bore witness to your truth, even as you walk in truth.
| لِأَنِّي فَرِحْتُ جِدًّا إِذْ حَضَرَ إِخْوَةٌ وَشَهِدُوا بِٱلْحَقِّ ٱلَّذِي فِيكَ، كَمَا أَنَّكَ تَسْلُكُ بِٱلْحَقِّ. | ٣ |
4 I have no greater joy than that which I have when I hear my children are walking in truth.
| لَيْسَ لِي فَرَحٌ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ هَذَا: أَنْ أَسْمَعَ عَنْ أَوْلَادِي أَنَّهُمْ يَسْلُكُونَ بِٱلْحَقِّ. | ٤ |
5 Beloved, you do faithfully what you perform for the brethren, and for the strangers.
| أَيُّهَا ٱلْحَبِيبُ، أَنْتَ تَفْعَلُ بِٱلْأَمَانَةِ كُلَّ مَا تَصْنَعُهُ إِلَى ٱلْإِخْوَةِ وَإِلَى ٱلْغُرَبَاءِ، | ٥ |
6 These have borne testimony to your love, in the presence of the congregation; whom, if you help forward on their journey, in a manner worthy of God, you will do well.
| ٱلَّذِينَ شَهِدُوا بِمَحَبَّتِكَ أَمَامَ ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ. ٱلَّذِينَ تَفْعَلُ حَسَنًا إِذَا شَيَّعْتَهُمْ كَمَا يَحِقُّ لِلهِ، | ٦ |
7 Because for his name's sake, they went forth, receiving nothing from the Gentiles.
| لِأَنَّهُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱسْمِهِ خَرَجُوا، وَهُمْ لَا يَأْخُذُونَ شَيْئًا مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ. | ٧ |
8 We, therefore, ought to entertain such, that we may be joint laborers in the truth.
| فَنَحْنُ يَنْبَغِي لَنَا أَنْ نَقْبَلَ أَمْثَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ، لِكَيْ نَكُونَ عَامِلِينَ مَعَهُمْ بِٱلْحَقِّ. | ٨ |
9 I wrote to the congregation: but Diotrephes, who affects a pre-eminence among them, does not receive us.
| كَتَبْتُ إِلَى ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ، وَلَكِنَّ دِيُوتْرِيفِسَ - ٱلَّذِي يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَكُونَ ٱلْأَوَّلَ بَيْنَهُمْ - لَا يَقْبَلُنَا. | ٩ |
10 For this cause, when I come, I will bring his deeds to remembrance, which he practices--prating against us with malicious words; and, not content with this, he does not himself receive the brethren, and forbids them who would, and casts them out of the congregation.
| مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ، إِذَا جِئْتُ فَسَأُذَكِّرُهُ بِأَعْمَالِهِ ٱلَّتِي يَعْمَلُهَا، هَاذِرًا عَلَيْنَا بِأَقْوَالٍ خَبِيثَةٍ. وَإِذْ هُوَ غَيْرُ مُكْتَفٍ بِهَذِهِ، لَا يَقْبَلُ ٱلْإِخْوَةَ، وَيَمْنَعُ أَيْضًا ٱلَّذِينَ يُرِيدُونَ، وَيَطْرُدُهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ. | ١٠ |
11 Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. He who does good, is of God; but he who does evil, has not seen God.
| أَيُّهَا ٱلْحَبِيبُ، لَا تَتَمَثَّلْ بِٱلشَّرِّ بَلْ بِٱلْخَيْرِ، لِأَنَّ مَنْ يَصْنَعُ ٱلْخَيْرَ هُوَ مِنَ ٱللهِ، وَمَنْ يَصْنَعُ ٱلشَّرَّ، فَلَمْ يُبْصِرِ ٱللهَ. | ١١ |
12 Testimony is borne to Demetrius, by all, and by the truth itself; and we also bear testimony; and you know that our testimony is true.
| دِيمِتْرِيُوسُ مَشْهُودٌ لَهُ مِنَ ٱلْجَمِيعِ وَمِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ نَفْسِهِ، وَنَحْنُ أَيْضًا نَشْهَدُ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ شَهَادَتَنَا هِيَ صَادِقَةٌ. | ١٢ |
13 I have many things to write; but I do not incline to write them to you with pen and ink:
| وَكَانَ لِي كَثِيرٌ لِأَكْتُبَهُ، لَكِنَّنِي لَسْتُ أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكَ بِحِبْرٍ وَقَلَمٍ. | ١٣ |
14 for I hope immediately to see you, and so we shall speak face to face. Salute the friends by name.
| وَلَكِنَّنِي أَرْجُو أَنْ أَرَاكَ عَنْ قَرِيبٍ فَنَتَكَلَّمَ فَمًا لِفَمٍ. سَلَامٌ لَكَ. يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ ٱلْأَحِبَّاءُ. سَلِّمْ عَلَى ٱلْأَحِبَّاءِ بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ. | ١٤ |
