٢ يوحنَّا 1

١ 1 اَلشَّيْخُ، إِلَى كِيرِيَّةَ ٱلْمُخْتَارَةِ، وَإِلَى أَوْلَادِهَا ٱلَّذِينَ أَنَا أُحِبُّهُمْ بِٱلْحَقِّ، وَلَسْتُ أَنَا فَقَطْ، بَلْ أَيْضًا جَمِيعُ ٱلَّذِينَ قَدْ عَرَفُوا ٱلْحَقَّ.

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;

٢ 2 مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْحَقِّ ٱلَّذِي يَثْبُتُ فِينَا وَسَيَكُونُ مَعَنَا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ: (aiōn g165)

on account of the truth which abides in us, and shall be with us forever. (aiōn g165)

٣ 3 تَكُونُ مَعَكُمْ نِعْمَةٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ وَسَلَامٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ ٱلْآبِ وَمِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱبْنِ ٱلْآبِ بِٱلْحَقِّ وَٱلْمَحَبَّةِ.

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.

٤ 4 فَرِحْتُ جِدًّا لِأَنِّي وَجَدْتُ مِنْ أَوْلَادِكِ بَعْضًا سَالِكِينَ فِي ٱلْحَقِّ، كَمَا أَخَذْنَا وَصِيَّةً مِنَ ٱلْآبِ.

I rejoice exceedingly because I have found some of thy children walking about in truth, as we received commandment from the Father.

٥ 5 وَٱلْآنَ أَطْلُبُ مِنْكِ يَا كِيرِيَّةُ، لَا كَأَنِّي أَكْتُبُ إِلَيْكِ وَصِيَّةً جَدِيدَةً، بَلِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ عِنْدَنَا مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ: أَنْ يُحِبَّ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا.

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.

٦ 6 وَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْمَحَبَّةُ: أَنْ نَسْلُكَ بِحَسَبِ وَصَايَاهُ. هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْوَصِيَّةُ: كَمَا سَمِعْتُمْ مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ أَنْ تَسْلُكُوا فِيهَا.

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.

٧ 7 لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ دَخَلَ إِلَى ٱلْعَالَمِ مُضِلُّونَ كَثِيرُونَ، لَا يَعْتَرِفُونَ بِيَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ آتِيًا فِي ٱلْجَسَدِ. هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْمُضِلُّ، وَٱلضِّدُّ لِلْمَسِيحِ.

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.

٨ 8 ٱنْظُرُوا إِلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ لِئَلَّا نُضَيِّعَ مَا عَمِلْنَاهُ، بَلْ نَنَالَ أَجْرًا تَامًّا.

Take heed to yourselves, that you may not destroy those things which you have wrought, but may receive a full reward.

٩ 9 كُلُّ مَنْ تَعَدَّى وَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي تَعْلِيمِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فَلَيْسَ لَهُ ٱللهُ. وَمَنْ يَثْبُتْ فِي تَعْلِيمِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ فَهَذَا لَهُ ٱلْآبُ وَٱلِٱبْنُ جَمِيعًا.

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.

١٠ 10 إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَأْتِيكُمْ، وَلَا يَجِيءُ بِهَذَا ٱلتَّعْلِيمِ، فَلَا تَقْبَلُوهُ فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ، وَلَا تَقُولُوا لَهُ سَلَامٌ.

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:

١١ 11 لِأَنَّ مَنْ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ يَشْتَرِكُ فِي أَعْمَالِهِ ٱلشِّرِّيرَةِ.

for the one bidding him God speed partakes of his evil deeds.

١٢ 12 إِذْ كَانَ لِي كَثِيرٌ لِأَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكُمْ، لَمْ أُرِدْ أَنْ يَكُونَ بِوَرَقٍ وَحِبْرٍ، لِأَنِّي أَرْجُو أَنْ آتِيَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَتَكَلَّمَ فَمًا لِفَمٍ، لِكَيْ يَكُونَ فَرَحُنَا كَامِلًا.

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.

١٣ 13 يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكِ أَوْلَادُ أُخْتِكِ ٱلْمُخْتَارَةِ. آمِينَ.

The children of thy elect sister salute thee.
