1 The eldere man to Gayus, most dere brother, whom Y loue in treuthe.
ܩܫܝܫܐ ܠܓܐܝܘܤ ܚܒܝܒ ܠܗܘ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܚܒ ܐܢܐ ܒܫܪܪܐ
2 Most dere brothir, of alle thingis Y make preyer, that thou entre, and fare welefuly, as thi soule doith welefuli.
ܚܒܝܒܢ ܒܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܨܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܥܠܝܟ ܕܬܨܠܚ ܘܬܗܘܐ ܚܠܝܡ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܡܨܠܚܐ ܢܦܫܟ
3 Y ioyede greetli, for britheren camen, and baren witnessing to thi treuthe, `as thou walkist in treuthe.
ܚܕܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܤܓܝ ܕܐܬܝܢ ܐܚܐ ܘܤܗܕܝܢ ܥܠ ܫܪܪܟ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܢܬ ܒܫܪܪܐ ܡܗܠܟ ܐܢܬ
4 Y haue not more grace of these thingis, than that Y here that my sones walke in treuthe.
ܕܪܒܐ ܡܢ ܗܕܐ ܚܕܘܬܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܝ ܕܐܫܡܥ ܕܒܢܝܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܒܫܪܪܐ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ
5 Most dere brother, thou doist feithfuli, what euer thou worchist in britheren, and that in to pilgrymys,
ܚܒܝܒܢ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܐ ܕܤܥܪ ܐܢܬ ܠܘܬ ܐܚܐ ܘܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܐܟܤܢܝܐ
6 which yeldiden witnessing to thi charite, in the siyt of the chirche; which thou leddist forth, and doist wel worthili to God.
ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܤܗܕܘ ܥܠ ܚܘܒܟ ܩܕܡ ܟܠܗ ܥܕܬܐ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܫܦܝܪ ܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܕܡܙܘܕ ܐܢܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܦܐܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ
7 For thei wenten forth for his name, and token no thing of hethene men.
ܚܠܦ ܓܝܪ ܫܡܗ ܢܦܩܘ ܟܕ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܢܤܒܘ ܡܢ ܥܡܡܐ
8 Therfor we owen to resseyue siche, that we be euen worcheris of treuthe.
ܚܢܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܚܝܒܝܢܢ ܠܡܩܒܠܘ ܠܕܐܝܟ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܡܥܕܪܢܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܫܪܪܐ
9 I hadde write perauenture to the chirche, but this Diotrepes, that loueth to bere primacie in hem, resseyueth not vs.
ܒܥܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܐܟܬܘܒ ܠܥܕܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܪܚܡ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܕܝܠܗܘܢ ܕܝܘܛܪܦܝܤ ܠܐ ܡܩܒܠ ܠܢ
10 For this thing, if Y schal come, Y schal moneste hise werkis, whiche he doith, chidinge ayens vs with yuel wordis. And as if these thingis suffisen not to hym, nether he resseyueth britheren, and forbedith hem that resseyuen, and puttith out of the chirche.
ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܐܥܗܕ ܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܥܒܕ ܕܒܡܠܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܤܬܪ ܠܢ ܘܟܕ ܠܐ ܤܦܩ ܠܗ ܗܠܝܢ ܠܐ ܗܘ ܡܩܒܠ ܠܐܚܐ ܘܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܩܒܠܝܢ ܟܠܐ ܘܡܦܩ ܡܢ ܥܕܬܐ
11 Moost dere brothir, nyle thou sue yuel thing, but that that is good thing. He that doith wel, is of God; he that doith yuel, seeth not God.
ܚܒܝܒܢ ܠܐ ܬܬܕܡܐ ܒܒܝܫܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܛܒܬܐ ܗܘ ܕܥܒܕ ܛܒܬܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘ ܕܥܒܕ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܠܐ ܚܙܝܗܝ ܠܐܠܗܐ
12 Witnessing is yoldun to Demetrie of alle men, and of treuthe it silf; but also we beren witnessing, and thou knowist, that oure witnessing is trewe.
ܥܠ ܕܡܝܛܪܝܘܤ ܐܝܬ ܗܘ ܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܡܢ ܟܠܢܫ ܘܡܢܗ ܕܥܕܬܐ ܘܡܢܗ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܤܗܕܝܢܢ ܘܝܕܥ ܐܢܬ ܕܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܕܝܠܢ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܗܝ
13 Y hadde many thingis to wryte to thee, but Y wolde not write to thee bi enke and penne.
ܤܓܝܐܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܠܡܟܬܒ ܠܟ ܐܠܐ ܠܐ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܒܝܕ ܕܝܘܬܐ ܘܩܢܝܐ ܐܟܬܘܒ ܠܟ
14 For Y hope soone to se thee, and we schulen speke mouth to mouth. Pees be to thee. Frendis greten thee wel. Greete thou wel frendis bi name.
ܡܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܒܥܓܠ ܐܚܙܝܟ ܘܦܘܡܐ ܠܘܬ ܦܘܡܐ ܢܡܠܠܥ ܫܠܡܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܥܡܟ ܫܐܠܝܢ ܫܠܡܟ ܪܚܡܐ ܫܐܠ ܫܠܡܐ ܕܪܚܡܐ ܕܟܠܢܫ ܒܫܡܗ
