< 3 John 1 >

1 The elder, unto Gaius the beloved, whom, I, love in truth.
Manipud iti panglakayen para iti patpatgek a Gayo, nga ay-ayatek ti kinapudno.
2 Beloved! concerning all things, I pray thou mayest be prospering, and be in health, even as, thy soul, is prospering,
Patpatgek, Ikarkararagko a sapay koma ta rumang-ayka kadagiti amin a banbanag ken nasayaat koma ti salun-atmo, kas iti panagrang-ay ti kararuam.
3 For I rejoiced exceedingly, at brethren coming and bearing witness unto thy truth, —even as, thou, in truth, art walking.
Ta kasta unay ti ragsakko idi immay dagiti kakabsat a lallaki ken nagsaksida iti kinapudnom, kas iti pannagnam iti kinapudno.
4 I have no, greater, favour than these things, that I should be hearing that, my own children, in the truth, are walking.
Awanen ti dakdakkel pay a pagrag-oak ngem iti daytoy, ti manggegak a magmagna dagiti annakko iti kinapudno.
5 Beloved! a faithful thing, art thou doing, whatsoever thou shalt accomplish for them that are brethren, and withal strangers, —
Patpatgek, ipakpakitam ti kinamatalekmo tunggal agtrabtrabahoka para kadagiti kakabsatmo ken para kadagiti gangannaet,
6 Who have borne witness to thy love before the assembly: whom thou wilt do, nobly, to set forward worthily of God.
a nagsaksi iti kinamanagayatmo iti imatang ti iglesia. Inaramidmo iti umno iti panangparubwatmo kadakuada iti panagdalyasatda iti wagas a maikari iti Dios,
7 For, in behalf of The Name, have they gone forth, taking, nothing, from them of the nations.
gapu ta para iti Nagan ket rimmuarda, a saanda a dimmawat manipud kadagiti Hentil.
8 We, therefore ought to be sustaining such as these, that we may become, fellowworkers, with the truth.
Rebbengtayo ngarud a pasangbayen ti kas kadagitoy, tapno agbalintayo met koma a pada nga agtrabtrabaho para iti kinapudno.
9 I wrote something unto the assembly; but, he who is fond of taking the first place among them—Diotrephes, doth not make us welcome.
Nagsuratak iti maysa a banag kadagiti taripnong, ngem ni Diotrefes, a kayatna nga isuna ti kangatuan kadakuada, ket saannakami nga awaten.
10 For this cause, if I come, I will bring to remembrance his works which he is doing, —with wicked words, prating against us; and, not content with these, he neither, himself, maketh the brethren welcome, but, them who are minded [to do it], he forbiddeth, and, out of the assembly, doth cast [them].
Isu't gapuna a no umayak, lagipekto dagiti ar-aramid nga ar-aramidenna, ta agisawsawang isuna kadagiti awan serserbina a banbanag a maibusor kadatayo ket dakes dagiti sasawenna. Saan isuna a napnek kadagitoy nga ar-aramid, saanna pay nga awaten dagiti kakabsat. Paritanna dagidiay agtarigagay nga agaramid iti daytoy ken pappapanawenna ida iti taripnong.
11 Beloved! be not thou imitating what is bad, but what is good. He that doeth good, is, of God: he that doeth what is bad, hath not seen God.
Patpatgek, saanyo a tultuladen ti dakes nga aramid ngem aramidenyo ti naimbag. Ti agar-aramid iti naimbag ket iti Dios; ti agar-aramid iti dakes ket saanna a nakita ti Dios.
12 Unto Demetrius, hath witness been borne by all and by the truth itself; howbeit, we also, bear witness, and thou knowest that, our witness, is, true.
Saksaksian dagiti amin ni Demetrio ken saksaksian met isuna ti kinapudno. Saksaksianmi met isuna, ket ammom a pudno ti pammaneknekmi.
13 Many things, had I to write unto thee, —but I am unwilling, with ink and pen, to be writing;
Adu pay dagiti banbanag a kayatko nga isurat kenka, ngem saanko a kayat nga isurat dagitoy babaen iti papel ken tinta.
14 I hope, however, straightway, to see thee, and, mouth to mouth, will we talk. Peace be unto thee. The friends salute thee. Salute the friends by name.
Ngem namnamaek a makitaka iti mabiit, ken agsaritatanto iti rupan-rupa. Talna koma ti umadda kenka. Kablaawannaka dagiti gagayyem ditoy. Saggaysaem met a kablaawan dagiti gagayyem dita.
