2 Yohana 1
1 Afume hwa gogolo abhalehwa she yasaluulwe na bhana bhakwe, bhembage ne mulyoli, senemwene, lelo na bhaala bhabhaimenye elyoli,
From the elder, to the lady chosen by God and her children. I truly love you all, and I am not the only one but all who know the truth love you as well.
We love you for the sake of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever. (aiōn g165)
3 Eneema, ne usajile, nuluseshelo zyaibhanate afume hwa Ngulubhe uise witu nafume hwa Yesu Kristu umwana wa Ngulubhe hu lyoli no lugano.
Grace, mercy, and peace will be ours – the gift of God, the Father, and of Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son – in truth and love.
4 Esungwa tee nelole abhana benyu bamo bhazifuata enongwa ezye lyoli, neshi shataiposhie endajizyo ene afume hwa Baba.
It was a great joy to me to find the lives of some of your children guided by the truth, in obedience to the command that we received from the Father.
5 Neshi ehubhuula awe, wushe sehuje ehusimbila endajizyo empya, ila ajetigananaje tete. Olu lwolugano, lwatihwanziwa abhale nalwo, afuatane nendajizyo zyakwe.
And now I implore you, dear lady, let us love one another This is not a new command I am writing to you. It is the command we have had from the beginning. – Let us love one another.
6 Olu lwalula olulajizyo lwa mwahomvwezye ahwande hale huje muhwaziwa abhalenalwo.
And this is love – to live in obedience to the Father’s commands. This is the command as you learned from the beginning, to live a life of love.
7 Afwatane aje abhilenga bhinji bhali shaahamunsi, nantele sebhahumwetehau Yesu aje ahenzile nu bele pansi. Onu yakhopela ilenga, nuyahukhana uYesu.
I say this because many deceivers have gone out into the world – men who do not acknowledge that Jesus Christ came in flesh and blood. Any such person is a deceiver and antichrist.
8 Muhwiyenye mwemwe huje msahagatezye gaala gataga bhombeye embombo, nkamwahejelele ushahara gwenyu hwa mwene.
Take care so that you do not what we have worked for but instead receive your full reward.
9 Yayonti ula yahwendelela hwitagalila na siga adiila mumanyizyo zya Yesu, uyo siga ali nu Ngulubhi. Ulayadiila mumanyizyo zya Ngulubhe uyo ali nu Baba nu Mwana.
Anyone who goes beyond and fails to live inside of the teaching of Christ does not have God. The person who lives inside that teaching – they have both the Father and the Son.
10 Omuntu yayonti yahwenza hulimwe saaleta emanyizyo zyazifuma hwa Ngulubhi, omuntu uyo musahamwambilile munyumba zyenyu nantele musahalamushe.
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive them into your house or even welcome them;
11 Omuntu yahulamuha omuntu neshuyo abhaahwavwanwa embibhi nu muntu uyo.
because the person who welcomes them is sharing with them in his evil work.
12 Endinago minji agabhasimbile, na senahanzaga asimbe mwikalata nuwino. Lelo ehwanza aje ehenze nene nayanje namwe, ili uluseshelo lwetu lubhe shinza.
Though I have many other things to tell you, I would rather not use paper and ink. Instead I hope to come and see you, and to speak with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.
13 Abhana bha yilumbu wenyu usalulwe bhabhalamuha.
The children of your sister, who is chosen by God, send you their greetings.
