2 Jaona 1
1 Izaho loholona mamangy an’ itompokovavy voafidy sy ny zanany, izay tiako amin’ ny fahamarinana (ary tsy izaho ihany, fa izay rehetra mahalala ny marina koa)
The elder to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth—and not only I, but also all who know the truth—
because of the truth that abides in us and will be with us forever: (aiōn g165)
3 ho amintsika ny fahasoavana sy ny famindram-po ary ny fiadanana avy amin’ Andriamanitra Ray sy Jesosy Kristy, Zanaky ny Ray, amin’ ny fahamarinana sy ny fitiavana.
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
4 Faly indrindra aho, satria misy hitako ny zanakao sasany mandeha amin’ ny fahamarinana araka ny nandraisantsika didy tamin’ ny Ray.
I was overjoyed to find some of yoʋr children walking in the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.
5 Ary mangataka aminao aho ankehitriny, tompokovavy, tsy toy ny manoratra didy vaovao aminao, fa ilay nananantsika hatramin’ ny voalohany ihany, dia aoka hifankatia isika.
And now I ask yoʋ, dear lady—not as writing yoʋ a new commandment, but one we have had from the beginning—that we love one another.
6 Ary izao no fitiavana, dia ny handehanantsika araka ny didiny. Izany no didy, tahaka ny efa renareo hatramin’ ny taloha ihany, dia ny handehananareo aminy.
Now this is love, that we walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard it from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
7 Fa maro ny mpamitaka efa lasa any amin’ izao tontolo izao, dia ireny tsy manaiky fa efa tonga tamin’ ny nofo Jesosy Kristy. Izy no mpamitaka sy antikristy.
For many deceivers have come into the world, who do not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist.
8 Mitandrema ianareo, fandrao mahavery izay namonoanay tena, fa mba handraisanareo valim-pitia tanteraka.
Watch yourselves, so that we do not lose what we have worked for, but may receive a full reward.
9 Izay rehetra mitarika nefa tsy mitoetra ao amin’ ny fampianaran’ i Kristy, dia tsy manana an Andriamanitra. Izay mitoetra ao amin’ ny fampianarana, dia izy no manana ny Ray sy ny Zanaka.
Everyone who transgresses and does not abide in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching of Christ has both the Father and the Son.
10 Raha misy olona mankeo aminareo ka tsy mitondra izao fampianarana izao, aza mampiantrano azy na miarahaba azy akory;
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not greet him;
11 fa izay miarahaba azy dia miombona amin’ ny ratsy ataony.
for whoever greets him takes part in his evil works.
12 Manana zavatra maro hosoratana aminareo aho, nefa tsy tiako hatao amin’ ny taratasy sy ny ranomainty izany; fa manantena ho tonga atỳ aminareo aho ka hiteny mifanatrika, mba ho tanteraka ny fifalianareo.
Although I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to come to you and speak face to face, so that our joy may be full.
13 Ny zanaky ny rahavavinao voafidy manao veloma anao.
The children of yoʋr chosen sister greet yoʋ. Amen.
