< 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, —
hē abhirucitē kuriyē, tvāṁ tava putrāṁśca prati prācīnō'haṁ patraṁ likhāmi|
2 for the sake of the truth which abideth in us, and will be with us for ever. (aiōn g165)
satyamatād yuṣmāsu mama prēmāsti kēvalaṁ mama nahi kintu satyamatajñānāṁ sarvvēṣāmēva| yataḥ satyamatam asmāsu tiṣṭhatyanantakālaṁ yāvaccāsmāsu sthāsyati| (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.
piturīśvarāt tatpituḥ putrāt prabhō ryīśukhrīṣṭācca prāpyō 'nugrahaḥ kr̥pā śāntiśca satyatāprēmabhyāṁ sārddhaṁ yuṣmān adhitiṣṭhatu|
4 I rejoiced greatly, that I found some of thy children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
vayaṁ pitr̥tō yām ājñāṁ prāptavantastadanusārēṇa tava kēcid ātmajāḥ satyamatam ācarantyētasya pramāṇaṁ prāpyāhaṁ bhr̥śam ānanditavān|
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.
sāmpratañca hē kuriyē, navīnāṁ kāñcid ājñāṁ na likhannaham āditō labdhām ājñāṁ likhan tvām idaṁ vinayē yad asmābhiḥ parasparaṁ prēma karttavyaṁ|
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.
aparaṁ prēmaitēna prakāśatē yad vayaṁ tasyājñā ācarēma| āditō yuṣmābhi ryā śrutā sēyam ājñā sā ca yuṣmābhirācaritavyā|
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.
yatō bahavaḥ pravañcakā jagat praviśya yīśukhrīṣṭō narāvatārō bhūtvāgata ētat nāṅgīkurvvanti sa ēva pravañcakaḥ khrīṣṭāriścāsti|
8 Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which ye wrought, but receive a full reward.
asmākaṁ śramō yat paṇḍaśramō na bhavēt kintu sampūrṇaṁ vētanamasmābhi rlabhyēta tadarthaṁ svānadhi sāvadhānā bhavataḥ|
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.
yaḥ kaścid vipathagāmī bhūtvā khrīṣṭasya śikṣāyāṁ na tiṣṭhati sa īśvaraṁ na dhārayati khrīṣṭasya śijñāyāṁ yastiṣṭhati sa pitaraṁ putrañca dhārayati|
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.
yaḥ kaścid yuṣmatsannidhimāgacchan śikṣāmēnāṁ nānayati sa yuṣmābhiḥ svavēśmani na gr̥hyatāṁ tava maṅgalaṁ bhūyāditi vāgapi tasmai na kathyatāṁ|
11 For he that biddeth him good speed taketh part in his evil deeds.
yatastava maṅgalaṁ bhūyāditi vācaṁ yaḥ kaścit tasmai kathayati sa tasya duṣkarmmaṇām aṁśī bhavati|
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.
yuṣmān prati mayā bahūni lēkhitavyāni kintu patramasībhyāṁ tat karttuṁ nēcchāmi, yatō 'smākam ānandō yathā sampūrṇō bhaviṣyati tathā yuṣmatsamīpamupasthāyāhaṁ sammukhībhūya yuṣmābhiḥ sambhāṣiṣya iti pratyāśā mamāstē|
13 The children of thy elect sister salute thee.
tavābhirucitāyā bhaginyā bālakāstvāṁ namaskāraṁ jñāpayanti| āmēn|
