< 2 John 1 >
1 The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not I only, but also all those who know the truth;
Kuzwa kumukulwana kuya kumwanakazi yoketetwe nivana vakwe, uzo unisaka mubuniti- mi isiñi fera ime, Linu nikwavo bonse vezi buniti-
2 for the truth's sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever: (aiōn )
Vakenyi chavuniti bwikalilile kwentu nintato iyenda kusamani. (aiōn )
3 Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Imi chisemu, kuluka, inkozo muive naswe niku nsuna kuzwa kwa Ireeza kuzwa kwe Shetu kuzwila kwa Jesu Kereste, mwana weshetu, muvuniti nirato.
4 I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.
Nisanga chavu kando kuti nivawani vamwi vanavenu bayenda mwiniti, sina mutuvatambwili iyi intayelo izwila kweshetu.
5 And now I ask you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
Imi hanu niku kumila, mwanakazi- isikuti niku ñolela intayelo ihya, kona itubazuwi kuzwa kutazi-mukuti tusakane,
6 This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
Imi ilinji rato, Ilikuti tuyende chetaelo yakwe. Iyi nji ntayelo, sina hamubazuwi kumatangilo kuti muyenda muyili.
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Mukuti vangi vachengi bachi vavayendi mwikanda, linu kavawambi kuti Jesu kereste avezi mwinyma, uzu njimuchengi mukuti kahena nji Jesu.
8 Watch yourselves, that you do not lose the things which we have accomplished, but that you receive a full reward.
Mulilole inwe muvene, ilikuti kanji musinyehelwa icho chitu vasevelezi. kono Ilikuti tuka tambule mupuzo wizwile.
9 Whoever goes on and does not remain in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son.
Yense yoyenda havunsu nasekali mwituto za Jesu kena Ireeza. imi wikala mwitunto, Linu uzu njiwina Ishentu ni mwanakwe,
10 If anyone comes to you, and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not welcome him,
linu iye wiza kwenu nasena yinu itunto, kanji mu mutambuli mwizuvo yenu kanji mu mulumeresa.
11 for he who welcomes him participates in his evil works.
Mukuti iyemwine yo mutambula uwanika muchive cha mitendo yakwe.
12 Having many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
Nikwete zintu zingi zinilukela kuminolela, nina zintu zingi kono kani nsuni kuzi nola hepapili ni inke. Nihakuvabulyo, nilakaza kwiza kwenu zeni wambole nitulilolete, Ilikuti kusanga kwentu.
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you.
Bana vamwachako wachikazana vakurumelesa.
