2 Jaona 1
1 I Zokey, Ho ami’ty rakemba jinoboñe naho o ana’eo, o kokoako an-katòo; le tsy izaho avao, fa ze hene mahafohiñe ty hatò,
I, a ruler in the church, send word to the noble sister who is of God's selection, and to her children, for whom I have true love; and not only I, but all who have knowledge of what is true;
Because of this true knowledge which is in us, and will be with us for ever: (aiōn g165)
3 Hasoa naho fiferenaiñañe vaho hanintsiñe aman-tika boak’ aman’ Añahare Rae naho hirik’ am’ Iesoà Norizañey, anan-dRae, an-katò naho an-koko.
May grace, mercy, and peace be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in all true love.
4 Vata’e nahaehak’ ahy te nahatrea o ana’o ila’eo nañavelo ami’ty hatò, do’e amy nandilian-dRae antikañey.
It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.
5 Mañontane azo iraho, rakemba, tsy t’ie isokirako lily vao, fa i tàman-tika am-baloha’ey, t’ie hifampikoko.
And now, my sister, I make a request to you, not sending you a new law, but the law which we had from the first, that we have love for one another.
6 Zao o fikokoañeo, t’ie mañavelo am-pañambenañe o lili’eo. Inao i liliy, hañaveloa’ areo amy jinanji’ areo tam-baloha’ey.
And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it.
7 Maro ty mpamañahy fa niboele ami’ty voatse toy ze tsy miantoke te niavy an-tsandriñe t’Iesoà Norizañe. Izay i mpamañahiy, i norizam-bìlañey.
Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist.
8 Mitaoa tsy ho motso ty nifanehafan-tika, soa t’ie handrambe tambe heneke.
Keep watch over yourselves, so that you do not make our work of no effect, but may get your full reward.
9 Ndra ia ia milosotse tsy mimoneñe amy fañòha’ i Norizañeiy, le tsy ama’e t’i Andrianañahare; f’ie mifahatse amy fañòhañey, le ama’e t’i Rae naho i Anakey.
Anyone who goes on and does not keep to the teaching of Christ, has not God: he who keeps to the teaching has the Father and the Son.
10 Aa ndra ia ia mitilik’ azo tsy minday i fañòhañe zay, ko anoe’o añ’anjomba, vaho ko añontanea’o,
If anyone comes to you not having this teaching, do not take him into your house or give him words of love:
11 amy te mpitraok’ amo sata-rati’eo ze mañontane aze.
For he who gives him words of love has a part in his evil works.
12 Aa ndra te maro ty ho nisokirako, tsy teako t’ie an-taratasy naho rano-mainte, fe salalaeko ty hitilike vaho hifañaoñe ama’o naho hifañatreke hampahaeneñe o haehan-tikañeo.
Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.
13 Mañontane azo o ana-drahavave’o jinoboñeo.
The children of your noble sister, who is of God's selection, send you their love.
