2 John 1 (TGJ) · Opened

1Abwng Jon lokv— Ayanam dvnvbuyu okv bunugv umvuu vdwa, okv ngoogv jvjvrungbv paknam. Okv ngo akin twkma, vbvritola yvvdw jvjvnga chinv vdwv mvnwng ngv nonua pakdu,The elder, To the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth—and not I alone, but also all who know the truth—

2ogulvgavbolo jvjvngv ngonu gvlo doodunv okv ngonu gvlo dvbvsingtambv doobvre.because of the truth that abides in us and will be with us forever:

3Pwknvyarnv Abu, okv Abu gv kuunyilo Jisu Kristo, ngonua anyuaya, aya okv sarsopoyo nga jinamv doyi laka; okv jvjv okv paknamv bunu ngonu gvbv doolwk yilaka.Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, will be with us in truth and love.

4Abu gv ngonua gamkinam aingbv, nonugv umvuu meegonv jvjvlo ridubv tvvpa nam lvgabv vdwgo ngo himpu siyato.I was overjoyed to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father has commanded us.

5Okv vbvrikunamv, ayasinam dvnvbvyu: kaju ngonu mvnwng ngv ajin anyingnga pakmisila juka. Ngoogv nonua lvkdung dunam si anwnv gamki yagoma; si ngonu gvlo klu lokv gamki la doobwng kunam go.And now I urge you, dear lady—not as a new commandment to you, but one we have had from the beginning—that we love one another.

6Ngoogv pakmi sidubv mindunv si ngonu Pwknvyarnv gv gamki kolo tvvla doorung tvlaka vnamgo. Klu lokv, nonu mvnwng gv tvvnam gamki si, nonu mvnwng ngv pakmi sinam lo dooto laka vnamgo.And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the very commandment you have heard from the beginning, that you must walk in love.

7Nyiamooku so nyi meego mvvnv ngv vnglin doku, oogv nyi vdwv Jisu Kristonyi nyiamooku so nyi nyidung bv aapvnv vla mimanv, oogv nyi mvvnv ngv okv Kristo gv Nyimak bv rinv ngv.For many deceivers have gone out into the world, refusing to confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.

8Vbvrikunamv ngonu ogunv kudungkua ripvnam ngv nyema nam lvgabv, nonu awv hinggu sula dooto laka, vbvribolo nonugv Amen am paareku.Watch yourselves, so that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be fully rewarded.

9Yvvdw Jisu Kristo gv tamsar kolo dooma dunv, vbvritola, ribovngbo yadunv vv Pwknvyarnv gvlo paaya mare. Yvvdw so tamsar kolo doodudw vv Abu nyila okv Kuunyilo anyibabwng nga paare.Anyone who runs ahead without remaining in the teaching of Christ does not have God. Whoever remains in His teaching has both the Father and the Son.

10Vbvrinamv, yvvdw nonu gvlo aadula soogv tamsarnam sum aagv la aama dubolo, um nonugv naam lo aadu bv ninyia kumrwklvtak siyoka; “Nonu gvlo sarsopoyo namv doyilakv vla vbvka miyoka.”If anyone comes to you but does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your home or even greet him.

11Holvgabv yvvdw bunua sarsopoyo nga nonu lvkobv doyilakv vla mindunv, kokwnglo bunugv alvmanv gv rinam lo ajin gobv ridunv.Whoever greets such a person shares in his evil deeds.

12Ngo nonua minsv meego doodunv, vbvrijvka pvta soka okv sai lokv lvkmare; vbvmayabv, ngo awv kaalwkla okv gaam yangv mirwksiya nvpv mvngla mvngtindu, vbvribolo, ngonugv mvngpuv pumichiki yariku.I have many things to write to you, but I would prefer not to do so with paper and ink. Instead, I hope to come and speak with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

13Nonugv ayanam anyibormv vdwgv umvuu vdwv bunugv kumrwksinam go jilwk dunv.The children of your elect sister send you greetings.
