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, unto an elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not, I, alone, but all those also who understand the truth, —
For the sake of the truth that abideth in us, and, with us, shall be unto times age-abiding, (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.
Favour, mercy, peace shall be with us, from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ the Son of the Father, in 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 exceedingly, in that I had found, from among thy children, such as were walking in truth, even as, a commandment, we received 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 request thee, lady, not as writing, a new commandment, unto thee, but one which we were holding from the beginning—That we should be loving 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 love, that we should be walking according to his commandments: This, is, the commandment, even as ye heard from the beginning, that, therein, ye should be walking.
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.
Because, many deceivers, have gone out into the world, they who do not confess Jesus Christ coming in 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.
Be taking heed unto yourselves, lest ye lose what things we earned, —but, a full reward, ye may duly receive.
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.
Every one that taketh a lead, and abideth not in the teaching of Christ, hath not, God: he that abideth in the teaching, the same, hath, 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 anyone cometh unto you and, this teaching, doth not bring, be not receiving him home, and, Joy to thee! do not say;
11 No ka mea, o ka mea e i ae ia ia, Aloha; he hoalawehana ia ma kana hana ino ana.
For, he that biddeth him rejoice, hath fellowship with his wicked works.
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.
Though I had many things, unto you, to write, I was not minded [to say them] with paper and ink; but I hope to come unto you, and, mouth to mouth, to talk, —that your joy may be made full.
13 Ke uwe aku nei ia oe na keiki a kou hoahanau wahine aloha. Amene.
The children of thy chosen sister salute thee.
