2 John 1
1 The elder to the elect Cyria, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all that know the truth, —
Vanemalt, Jumala valitud naisele ja tema lastele, keda ma armastan tões, ja mitte ainult mina, vaid kõik, kes tunnevad tõde,
sest tõde püsib meis ja on meiega igavesti: (aiōn g165)
3 Grace, mercy, peace shall be with you from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Arm, halastus ja rahu Jumalalt Isalt ja tema Pojalt Jeesuselt Kristuselt jäägu meiega tões ja armastuses!
4 I rejoiced greatly, that I found some of thy children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
Ma rõõmustasin väga, et leidsin sinu laste seast neid, kes elavad tões, nii nagu Isa on meid käskinud.
5 And now I beseech thee, Cyria, not as writing to thee a new commandment, but that which we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.
Ja nüüd palun ma sind, emand, mitte saates sulle uut käsku, vaid selle, mis on meil algusest peale, et me peame üksteist armastama.
6 And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, as ye have heard from the beginning, that ye should walk in it.
Ja see on armastus, et me elame tema käskude järgi. See ongi käsk, mida te olete kuulnud algusest peale, et te elaksite selle järgi.
7 For many deceivers went out into the world, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ coming in the flesh; this is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Sest maailma on läinud palju eksitajaid, kes ei tunnista Jeesust Kristust lihasse tulnuna. Iga selline inimene on eksitaja ja antikristus.
8 Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which ye wrought, but receive a full reward.
Vaadake ette, et te ei kaotaks seda, mille nimel me oleme töötanud, vaid et te saaksite kätte kogu tasu.
9 Whoever goeth beyond, and abideth not in the teaching of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the teaching, he hath both the Son and the Father.
Ühelgi, kes läheb mööda Kristuse õpetusest ega püsi selles, ei ole Jumalat. Kes püsib tema õpetuses, sellel on nii Isa kui ka Poeg.
10 If any one cometh to you, and bringeth not this teaching, receive him not into your house, and do not bid him good speed.
Kui keegi tuleb teie juurde ega too kaasa seda õpetust, siis ärge võtke teda oma koju ja ärge öelge tere tulemast.
11 For he that biddeth him good speed taketh part in his evil deeds.
Sest kes nii teeb, saab kaasosaliseks tema kurjades tegudes.
12 Having many things to write to you, I would not write with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
Mul oleks palju teile öelda, aga ma ei taha seda teha paberil ja tindiga, vaid loodan tulla ise teie juurde ja rääkida silmast silma, et meie rõõm saaks olla täielik.
13 The children of thy elect sister salute thee.
Oma tervitused saadavad su Jumala poolt valitud õe lapsed!
