< 2 John 1 >
1 [You all know me as] the [chief] Elder. [I am writing this letter] to all of you [MET] in your congregation. [God has] chosen [you], and I love you truly! Not only do I myself love you, but all those who know [and accept the] true message [that Jesus taught] also love you!
Tiyoke eenashoke, marat'ets moogenunat b nana'otsnsh, Tí s'uzi b́woteftsere ar dants jamwotswere iti shunfne.
2 All of us [believe God’s] true message. It is in our ([inner beings/hearts]) and we will continue [to believe it] forever! (aiōn )
Aranwere no dagotse fa'onat shino maantsisho dúre dúron noonton beetwoniye. (aiōn )
3 God the Father and Jesus Christ, who is (his Son/the man who is also God), will continue [to act] kindly and mercifully [toward us because they] love [us. They will enable us to have inner] peace, [because we believe] their true message.
Ik'o nihonat b́ naay Iyesus Krstotsoke s'aatona, mihretiyona, jenonwere, aronat shunon noonton wotowe.
4 I am very happy because I learned about some of you [SYN] who are conducting your lives in a manner that is (consistent/in accordance) with [God’s] true message. You are doing that just like our Father [God] commanded us [to do].
N nana'uwotsitse ik ikuwotsi niho noon bí azaztsok'on arikeewon kup'at boere t datstsotse ayidek'at gene'owere.
5 And now, dear congregation [MET], [there is something that] I am requesting you [to do]. I am writing this not to command that you do something new, but [that you continue to do] what God commanded when we first began [MTY] [to believe his true message. What he commanded] is that we love each other.
Moo genee, andoor oona neesha, neesh t guut'irwan tzazi handr ark'aye, and t guut'irwan «No ats atsewo shunewone» etts shintson dek't nowooke teshts tzaziyoniye.
6 And [we really/truly] are loving [God] when we are conducting our lives in accordance with whatever he commands [us to do]. What he commands us to do is to continue [to love one another]. That is exactly what you heard when you first began [MTY] [to believe God’s true message].
Ari shuna eto Ik' tzaziyo fina etee. Tzaziymanwere shintson it shishtsok'on «Shunon beewere, » ettsoniye.
7 Many people who deceive [others have left your congregation and] have now gone out among other people who are [in your area] [MTY]. They are the ones who (do not acknowledge/refuse to say) that Jesus Christ became human. They are the very ones who deceive [people] and oppose [what we teach about] Christ.
Iyesus ash wotat meetson b́ be'etsok'o amanerawwots ash sheeliyru aywots datsanatse tuurne. Mank'o ashaan ant'elcirwonat Krstosi k'efirwoniye.
8 [So] be sure that [you do not let those teachers deceive you]! If you let them deceive you, you will lose [the reward] which we, [together with you], have been working for, and you will not receive the complete reward [of being eternally united to God]!
Itmó it k'awntso s'eenon dek'osh kup'ore, it fintso b́ t'afrawok'o korde'ere.
9 Those who change what Christ taught and do not continue [to believe] what he taught do not have [a relationship with] God. [But] those who continue to believe [what Christ] taught have [a close relationship with] both [God, our] Father, and with (his Son/the one who is also God).
Krstos danits danaats s'ap'de'er beerawo bíatsnowere wokar ametuwonton Ik'o aaliye, Krstos danits danaats s'ap'de beet ashontonmó Nihonat Nayon bíntoniye bofa'oni.
10 So when anyone comes to you who teaches something different from [what Christ] taught, do not welcome him into your homes! Do not [encourage him by] (wishing him well/greeting him as a fellow believer) [in any way]!
Dan han b́deshawo konwor itok b́wetitkawotiyal it meyits kindshk'ayere, dab́ jamonor bín aatk'ayere.
11 [I say that] because if you treat people like that as you would treat a fellow believer, [God will punish you] along with them for the evil that they do.
Bín jam aatit asho bínton gond fino kaytsoni b́wotiti.
12 [Even though] I have much [more that I want] to tell you, I have decided not [to say it] in a letter [MTY]. Instead, I expect to be with you [soon] and talk directly with you. Then we can be completely joyful [together].
Itsh guut'osh t geyirwo ay keewo detsfe, wotowa eree jamo dabdayon wosho geeratse, Maniyere itok borr noonon itn keewiye tgeyiriye, manwere noshunewo s'een b́ wotituwok'o geeyatniye.
13 Your fellow believers here [MET], ones whom [God] has also chosen, (send their greetings to you/say that they are thinking affectionately about you).
N mish marat'etsu nana'uwots neesh jamo woshernee.
