< 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, —
Starejšina gospé izvoljeni in otrokom njenim, katere jaz ljubim v resnici, (in ne jaz sam, nego tudi vsi, ki so spoznali resnico),
2 for the sake of the truth which abideth in us, and will be with us for ever. (aiōn g165)
Po resnici, katera ostaja v nas, in z nami bode vekomaj; (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.
Z vami bode milost, usmiljenje, mir od Boga očeta in od Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa, sina očetovega, v resnici in ljubezni.
4 I rejoiced greatly, that I found some of thy children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
Veselil sem se močno, ker sem našel izmed otrok tvojih, ki hodijo v resnici, kakor smo zapoved dobili od očeta.
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.
In sedaj te prosim, pospá, ne da bi ti pisal novo zapoved, nego katero smo imeli od začetka, da se ljubimo med seboj.
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.
In to je ljubezen, da živimo po zapovedih njegovih. To je zapoved, kakor ste slišali od začetka, da v njej živite;
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.
Ker mnogi sleparji prišli so na svet, kateri ne spoznavajo Jezusa Kristusa, da je prišel v mesu. Ta je slepar in protikrist.
8 Look to yourselves, that ye lose not the things which ye wrought, but receive a full reward.
Pazite, da ne izgubimo, kar smo pridelali, nego dobimo polno plačilo.
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.
Vsak, kdor prestopa in ne ostaja v uku Kristusovem, nima Boga; kdor ostaja v uku Kristusovem, ta ima očeta in sina.
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.
Če kdo pride k vam, in ne prinese tega uka, ne sprejemajte ga v hišo, in ne pozdravljajte ga;
11 For he that biddeth him good speed taketh part in his evil deeds.
Kajti kdor ga pozdravlja, udeležuje se hudobnih del njegovih.
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.
Mnogo sem imel vam pisati, a nisem hotel s papirjem in črnilom; ali upam priti k vam, in iz ust do ust govoriti, da bode veselje vaše popolno.
13 The children of thy elect sister salute thee.
Pozdravljajo te otroci sestre tvoje izvoljene. Amen.
