2 Yohannis 1
1 Jaarsicha irraa, Gara giiftii filatamtuu fi ijoollee ishee, warra ani dhugaadhaan jaalladhu, warra ana qofa utuu hin taʼin warri dhugaa beekan hundi akkasuma jaallataniitti;
The elder to the elect Cyria, and to her children, whom in truth I love with divine love; and not I, but also those having known the truth;
2 kunis sababii dhugaa nu keessa jiraatuu fi isa bara baraan nu wajjin jiraatu sanaatiif: (aiōn g165)
on account of the truth which abides in us, and shall be with us forever. (aiōn g165)
3 Ayyaanni, araarrii fi nagaan Waaqa Abbaa biraa, Yesuus Kiristoos Ilma Abbaa biraas, dhugaa fi jaalalaan nu wajjin ni taʼa.
Grace, mercy, peace, shall be with us from God our Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and in divine love.
4 Ani waan ijoollee kee keessaa tokko tokko akka isaan akkuma Abbaan nu ajajetti dhugaan jiraatan argeef baayʼee gammadeera.
I rejoice exceedingly because I have found some of thy children walking about in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.
5 Ammas yaa giiftii jaallatamtuu, ani ajaja durumaa jalqabee nuuf kenname sana malee ajaja haaraa siif barreessuutti hin jiru. Akka wal jaallannuufis sin kadhadha.
And now I entreat thee, O Cyria, not as writing to thee a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another with divine love.
6 Jaalallis kana: kunis ajaja isaa eegnee jiraachuu dha. Akkuma isin durumaa jalqabdanii dhageessan sana ajajni isaa akka isin jaalalaan jiraattanii dha.
And this is the divine love, that we may walk about according to his commandments; this is the commandment, That, as you heard from the beginning, that you may walk about in it.
7 Gowwoomsitoonni akka Yesuus Kiristoos fooniin dhufe hin amanne hedduun addunyaa seenaniiru. Namni akkanaa kam iyyuu gowwoomsituu fi farra Kiristoos.
Because many deceivers have gone out into the world, who do not confess that Jesus Christ is coming in the flesh; the same is the deceiver and the antichrist.
8 Isin akka gatii guutuu argattan malee akka waan hojjettan sana hin dhabneef of eeggadhaa.
Take heed to yourselves, that you may not destroy those things which you have wrought, but may receive a full reward.
9 Namni barsiisa Kiristoosiin hin jiraanne kan barsiisa sana keessaa baʼu kam iyyuu Waaqa hin qabu; namni barsiisa Kiristoosiin jiraatu hundinuu immoo Abbaas Ilmas qaba.
Every one going forth, and not abiding in the teaching of Christ, has not God; the one abiding in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son.
10 Isin yoo namni kam iyyuu gara keessan dhufee garuu barsiisa kana hin fidin, mana keessanitti ol isa hin galchinaa yookaan isa hin simatinaa.
If any one comes to you, and does not bring this doctrine; do not receive him into your house, and do not bid him God speed:
11 Namni isa simatu kam iyyuu hojii isaa hamaa sana keessatti qooda qabaataatii.
for the one bidding him God speed partakes of his evil deeds.
12 Ani waanan isiniif barreessu baayʼee qaba; taʼus waraqaa fi qalamiitti fayyadamuu hin barbaadu. Qooda kanaa akka gammachuun keenya guutuu taʼuuf ani gara keessan dhufee ifaan ifatti haasofnu abdiin qaba.
Having many things to write to you, I would not write them with paper and ink: but I hope to come to you, and mouth to mouth to speak to you, in order that our joy may be full.
13 Ijoolleen obboleettii kee kan filatamte sanaas nagaa siif dhaamu.
The children of thy elect sister salute thee.
