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 her children, whom I love in truth; and not I only, but also all those who know the truth;
for the truth's sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever: (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.
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father, and from 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 rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by 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 ask you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we 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.
This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should 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.
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver 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.
Watch yourselves, that you do not lose the things which we have accomplished, but that you 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.
Whoever goes on and does not remain in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same 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 bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not welcome him,
11 Ame si xɔ ame sia la sɔ kple eya amea le eƒe ŋutasẽnuwo wɔwɔ me.
for he who welcomes him participates in 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 do not want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
13 Nɔviwò nyɔnu tiatia la ƒe viwo hã do gbe na wò nyuie.
The children of your chosen sister greet you.
