< 2 John 1 >

1 The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those who know the truth,
ܩܫܝܫܐ ܠܓܒܝܬܐ ܩܘܪܝܐ ܘܠܒܢܝܗ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܢܐ ܡܚܒ ܐܢܐ ܒܫܪܪܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܢܐ ܒܠܚܘܕܝ ܐܠܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܕܥܘܗܝ ܠܫܪܪܐ
2 for the truth’s sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever: (aiōn g165)
ܡܛܠ ܫܪܪܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܡܩܘܐ ܒܢ ܘܥܡܢ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܠܥܠܡ (aiōn g165)
3 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.
ܬܗܘܐ ܥܡܢ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܘܪܚܡܐ ܘܫܠܡܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܐ ܘܡܢ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܒܐ ܒܫܪܪܐ ܘܒܚܘܒܐ
4 I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.
ܚܕܝܬ ܤܓܝ ܕܐܫܟܚܬ ܡܢ ܒܢܝܟܝ ܕܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܒܫܪܪܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܢܤܒܢܢ ܡܢ ܐܒܐ
5 Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
ܘܗܫܐ ܡܦܝܤ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܝ ܩܘܪܝܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܚܕܬܐ ܟܬܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܝ ܐܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܡܢ ܫܘܪܝܐ ܕܢܚܒ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ
6 This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
ܘܗܢܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܚܘܒܐ ܕܢܗܠܟ ܐܝܟ ܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܗܢܐ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܫܘܪܝܐ ܕܒܗ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ
7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don’t confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.
ܡܛܠ ܕܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܛܥܝܢܐ ܢܦܩܘ ܒܗ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܡܘܕܝܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܬܐ ܒܒܤܪ ܗܢܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܛܥܝܢܐ ܘܐܢܛܝܟܪܝܤܛܘܤ
8 Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.
ܐܙܕܗܪܘ ܒܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܘܒܕܘܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܦܠܚܬܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܓܪܐ ܡܫܠܡܢܐ ܬܬܦܪܥܘܢ
9 Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
ܟܠ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܥܒܪ ܘܠܐ ܡܩܘܐ ܒܝܘܠܦܢܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܝܬ ܒܗ ܗܘ ܕܡܩܘܐ ܒܝܘܠܦܢܗ ܗܢܐ ܘܠܐܒܐ ܘܠܒܪܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ
10 If anyone comes to you and doesn’t bring this teaching, don’t receive him into your house, and don’t welcome him,
ܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܗܢܐ ܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܠܐ ܡܝܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܩܒܠܘܢܝܗܝ ܒܒܝܬܐ ܘܚܕܝ ܠܟ ܠܐ ܬܐܡܪܘܢ ܠܗ
11 for he who welcomes him participates in his evil deeds.
ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܚܕܝ ܠܟ ܡܫܘܬܦ ܗܘ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܒܝܫܐ
12 Having many things to write to you, I don’t want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
ܟܕ ܤܓܝܐܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܠܡܟܬܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܒܥܝܬ ܕܒܝܕ ܟܪܛܝܤܐ ܘܕܝܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܦܘܡܐ ܠܘܬ ܦܘܡܐ ܢܡܠܠ ܕܚܕܘܬܐ ܕܝܠܢ ܬܗܘܐ ܡܫܡܠܝܐ
13 The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
ܫܐܠܝܢ ܫܠܡܟܝ ܒܢܝܐ ܕܚܬܟܝ ܓܒܝܬܐ ܐܡܝܢ
