3 John 1
1 The elder To Gaius the beloved whom I myself love in truth.
Ma sel Mwet Elder — Nu sel Gaius, kawuk saok luk, su nga lungse na pwaye.
2 Beloved, concerning all things I pray you to do well and to be in good health even as does well your soul.
Mwet kawuk saok luk, nga pre tuh in wo ouiyom in ma nukewa, ac tuh kom in ku in mano, oana ke nga etu lah kom ku in ngun.
3 I rejoiced for exceedingly when were coming [the] brothers and those bearing witness from you to the to truth, even as you yourself in truth are walking.
Nga arulana engan ke kutu mwet Christian wiasr elos foloko tuh srumun nu sik ke ouiyen oaru lom nu ke ma pwaye, oana ke kom moulkin ma pwaye pacl nukewa.
4 Greater than these things not I have (joy *NK(O)*) that I may hear of my children in (the *no*) truth walking.
Wangin ma nga engankin yohk liki ke nga ac lohng lah tulik nutik elos moul fal nu ke ma pwaye.
5 Beloved, faithfully you are doing whatever maybe you shall do for the brothers and (for *k*) (that [thing] *N(k)O*) strangers,
Mwet kawuk saok luk, kom arulana oaru ke ma kunom ke kom kasru mwet lulalfongi, elos finne mwet sac.
6 who testified of your love before [the] church, whom well you will do having set forward worthily of God.
Elos tuku tuh srumun nu sin church se inge ke lungse lom nu selos. Nunak munas, kasrelos in tafwela fufahsryesr lalos an ke ouiya ma ac akinsewowoye God.
7 On behalf for of the name they went forth nothing accepting from the (Gentile [people]. *N(k)O*)
Mweyen ke elos mukuiyak in fahsr lalos in kulansupu orekma lun Christ, elos tuh tia eis kutena kasru sin mwet su tia lulalfongi.
8 We ourselves therefore ought (to receive *N(k)O*) such [men] so that fellow workers we may be in the truth.
Ouinge, kut mwet Christian, enenu in kasru mwet inge, tuh kut fah ku in ipeis in orekma lalos nu ke ma pwaye.
9 I have written (something *no*) to the church; but the [one] loving to be first among them Diotrephes not welcomes us.
Nga tuh simusla leta fototo se nu sin church se ingan; tusruktu Diotrephes, su musmusen mwet kol, el tiana lohang nu ke ma nga fahk uh.
10 Because of this, if I shall come, I will bring to remembrance of him the works which he is doing, with words evil prating against us; and not being satisfied with these, neither himself he receives the brothers, and those purposing he forbids and from the church he casts [them] out.
Ke ma inge, nga fin fahsrot, nga fah srumun ma nukewa el oru: ma na koluk el fahk kacsr ac kas kikiap ma el fahk! Ac tia ma inge mukena, a el tia pac lungse eis mwet lulalfongi wiasr ke pacl elos ac sun acn ingan, ac el oayapa sikululos su engan in eisalos, ac el srike elan luselosla liki church!
11 Beloved, not do imitate what [is] evil but what [is] good. The [one] doing good of God is; the [one] (now *k*) doing evil not has seen God.
Mwet kawuk saok luk, nimet kom etai ma koluk, a kom in etai ma wo. Elos nukewa su oru wo elos ma nutin God; ac elos nukewa su oru ma koluk elos soenna liye God.
12 To Demetrius witness has been given by all and by itself the truth; and we ourselves also bear witness, and (you know *N(k)O*) that the testimony of us true is.
Mwet nukewa kaskas wo kacl Demetrius; ouiyen moul lal wi pac fahkak lah pwaye el wo. Ac kut wi pac loh ke orekma wo lal, ac kom etu lah ma kut fahk uh pwaye.
13 Many things I had (to write *N(k)O*) (to you, *no*) but not I desire with ink and pen to you (to write; *N(k)O*)
Pus na ma yuruk in fahk nu sum, tusruktu nga tia lungse simis ke pen ac ink.
14 I hope however soon you to see and mouth to mouth we will speak. Peace to you. Greet you the friends. do greet the friends by name.
Nga finsrak mu ngan sun kom ke pacl na fototo, na kut ac fah ngetani ac sramsram. Misla nu sum. Mwet kawuk lom inge nukewa supweyuk lung nu sum. Sang lung lasr nu sin kais sie sin mwet kawuk lasr ingan.
