Yohanes 2 1
1 Nye, hamemegã tsitsitɔ gbɔe agbalẽ sia tso, Na hamenyɔnu lɔlɔ̃a si nye Mawu ƒe ame tiatia tɔxɛ, ame si melɔ̃na vevie la kple viawo katã. Menye nye ɖekae o, ke boŋ ame siwo katã dze si nyateƒe la
The elder to the chosen lady, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all those having known the truth,
because of the truth that is remaining in us, and will be with us throughout the age, (aiōn g165)
3 Amenuveve, nublanuikpɔkpɔ kple ŋutifafa si tso Mawu Fofo la kple Yesu Kristo, Fofo la ƒe Vi la gbɔ la nanɔ anyi kpli mi le nyateƒe kple lɔlɔ̃ me.
there will be with you grace, mercy, [and] peace from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
4 Enye dzidzɔ gã aɖe nam be makpɔ be viwò aɖewo le agbe nɔm le nyateƒea me abe ale si Fofo la de se na míe ene.
I rejoiced exceedingly that I have found of your children walking in truth, even as we received a command from the Father;
5 Eye azɔ la, nyɔnu lɔlɔ̃a, menye se bubu aɖekee mele dedem na mi o, ke boŋ esi ko miese tso gɔmedzedzea me ke, mele biabiam be mialɔ̃ mia nɔewo.
and now I implore you, lady, not as writing to you a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,
6 Lɔlɔ̃ lae nye be míawɔ ɖe eƒe sededewo dzi. Abe ale si miese tso gɔmedzedzea me ene la, eƒe see nye be míanɔ agbe le lɔlɔ̃ me.
and this is love, that we may walk according to His commands; this is the command, even as you heard from the beginning, that you may walk in it,
7 Ameblela geɖewo siwo mexɔe se be Yesu Kristo va abe amegbetɔ ene le ŋutilã me o la kaka ɖe xexea me. Ame siawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe nye ameblela kple Kristo ƒe futɔ.
because many deceivers entered into the world, who are not confessing Jesus Christ coming in flesh; this one is he who is leading astray, and the antichrist.
8 Mikpɔ nyuie be nu si ŋu miedze agbagba le la nagage le mia si o, ke boŋ miaxɔ fetu si de blibo.
See to yourselves that you may not lose the things that we worked for, but may receive a full reward;
9 Ame sia ame si afia nu si to vovo tso Kristo ƒe nufiafia gbɔ la, mele Mawu me o. Ke ame si lé Kristo ƒe nufiafia me ɖe asi la le agbe le Fofo la kple Vi la me.
everyone who is transgressing, and is not remaining in the teaching of the Christ, does not have God; he who is remaining in the teaching of the Christ, this one has both the Father and the Son;
10 Ne ame aɖe va kple nufiafia si mesɔ ɖe Kristo tɔ dzi o la, migado wòezɔ teti hã nɛ o, eye migaxɔe ɖe miaƒe aƒe me kura o.
if anyone comes to you, and does not bear this teaching, do not receive him into the house, and do not say to him, “Greetings!”
11 Ame si xɔ ame sia la sɔ kple eya amea le eƒe ŋutasẽnuwo wɔwɔ me.
For he who is saying to him, “Greetings,” has fellowship with his evil works.
12 Nya geɖe li si madi be maŋlɔ na mi, gake nyemaŋlɔe kple agbalẽŋlɔtsi kple agbalẽ o, ke boŋ mele mɔ kpɔm be mava kpɔ mi ɖa, eye míaɖo dze ŋkume kple ŋkume, ale be míaƒe dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ nade blibo.
Having many things to write to you, I did not intend [it] with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full.
13 Nɔviwò nyɔnu tiatia la ƒe viwo hã do gbe na wò nyuie.
The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
