Ioane II 1
1 NA ka Lunakahiko i ka wahine aloha a me kana mau keiki i alohaia e au ma ka oiaio; aole e au wale no, aka, e ka poe a pau i ike i ka oiaio;
The elder, to Electa Cyria, and her children, whom I love sincerely; and not I only, but also all who have known the truth;
for the truth's sake, which is in us, and shall be with us forever: (aiōn g165)
3 E alohaia mai oukou, a e lokomaikaiia mai, a e maluhia hoi e ke Akua ka Makua, a me ka Haku o Iesu Kristo ke Keiki a ka Makua, ma ka oiaio a me ke aloha.
Favor, mercy, and peace, be with you, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, with truth and love.
4 Ua hauoli nui aku au i ko'u ike ana i kekahi o kau poe keiki e hele ana ma ka oiaio, e like me ke kauoha i loaa ia kakou, mai ka Makua mai.
I rejoiced greatly, when I found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
5 Ano la ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e ka wahine, aole me ka palapala ana aku ia oe i ke kanawai hou, aka, o ka mea i loaa mai ia makou mai kinohi mai, i aloha kakou i kekahi i kekahi.
And now I beseech you, Cyria, not as writing to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
6 Eia no ke aloha, i hele kakou ma kana mau kauoha. Eia no ke kauoha, e like me ko oukou lohe ana, mai kinohi mai, i hele oukou malaila.
And this is the love that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you have heard from the beginning, that you may walk in it;
7 No ka mea, ua komo mai i ke ao nei ka poe wahahee he nui wale, aole lakou i hooiaio i ko Iesu Kristo hiki ana mai ma ke kino; oia no ka wahahee a me ke Anikristo.
for many deceivers are entered into the world, who do not confess Jesus Christ did come in the flesh. This is the deceiver, and the antichrist.
8 E malama pono ia oukou iho, i lilo ole ka makou mea i hana'i, aka, i loaa hoi ia makou ka uku a pau.
Look to yourselves, that we may not lose the things which we have wrought, but may receive a full reward.
9 O ka mea i hana hewa, aole hoi i noho ma ka olelo a ka Mesia, aole no ke Akua ia: o ka mea e noho ana ma ka olelo a ka Mesia, nona no ka Makua a me Keiki.
Whoever transgresses, and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ, has not God: he who abides in the doctrine of Christ, has both the Father and the Son.
10 Ina e hele mai kekahi io oukou la, aole i halihali mai i ua olelo la, mai hookipa oukou ia ia iloko o ka hale, aole hoi o i aku ia ia, Aloha.
If any one come to you, and bring not this doctrine; receive him not into your house, nor wish him success:
11 No ka mea, o ka mea e i ae ia ia, Aloha; he hoalawehana ia ma kana hana ino ana.
for he who wishes him success, partakes in his evil deeds.
12 Nui no ka'u mea e palapala aku ai ia oukou, aole au i makemake ma ka pepa a me ka inika; no ka mea, he manaolana ko'u e hele aku io oukou la, e kamailio pu, he waha no he waha, i nui ai ko kakou olioli ana.
Having many things to write to you, I did not incline to communicate them by paper and ink; because I hope to come to you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be complete.
13 Ke uwe aku nei ia oe na keiki a kou hoahanau wahine aloha. Amene.
The children of your beloved sister, salute you.
