3 John 1
1 [You(sg) know me as] the [chief] Elder. [I am writing this letter to you], my dear friend Gaius, whom I truly love.
बुजूर्ग यूहन्ना को, तरफ सी प्रिय संगी गयुस को नाम, जेकोसी मय सच्चो प्रेम रखू हय।
2 Dear friend, I ask [God that things may go] well for you in every way, [specifically], that you will be physically healthy just like you are spiritually healthy [MTY].
हे प्रिय संगी, मोरी या प्रार्थना हय कि जसो तय आत्मिक उन्नति कर रह्यो हय, वसोच तय सब बातों म उन्नति करे अऊर भलो चंगो रहे।
3 I am very happy because some fellow believers have come [here] and told me that you conduct your life in a manner [that is consistent with God’s] true message.
कहालीकि जब विश्वासी भाऊवों न आय क तोरो ऊ सच कि गवाही दी, जो सच पर तय हमेशा चलय हय, त मय बहुतच खुश भयो।
4 I am very happy when I hear that (people whom I helped to believe in Christ/my [spiritual] children) are conducting their lives like you are!
मोख येको सी जादा अऊर कोयी खुशी नहाय कि मय सुनू, कि मोरो बच्चा सच को रस्ता पर चलय हंय।
5 Dear friend, you are [serving Jesus] loyally/faithfully whenever you do things to help fellow believers, [even those whom you] do not know, who are traveling [around doing God’s work].
हे प्रिय संगियों, जो कुछ तुम उन भाऊवों को संग करय हय, जो परदेशी हंय, ओख ईमानदारी को रूप म करय हय।
6 [Some of] them have reported before the congregation [here how] you have showed that you love them. You should continue to help such people in their travels in a way that is pleasing to God.
जो प्रेम तुम न उन पर दर्शायो हय उन्न मण्डली को आगु तोरो प्रेम की गवाही दियो हय। उन्की यात्रा बनायो रखन को लायी कृपया उन्की यो तरह सी मदत करनो जेकोसी परमेश्वर खुश हो।
7 When those fellow believers went out [to tell people about Jesus] [MTY], the people who do not believe in Christ did not give them anything [to help them].
कहालीकि हि मसीह की सेवा की यात्रा पर निकल पड़यो हंय तथा अविश्वासियों सी कुछ मदत नहीं लेवय।
8 So we [who believe in Christ] ought to give food and money to such people to help [them as they teach others God’s] true message.
येकोलायी हम मसीहियों ख असो लोगों की मदत करनो चाहिये, ताकी हम भी सच को काम म ओको सहकर्मी होय सके।
9 I wrote [a letter] to the congregation [telling them to help those fellow believers]. However, Diotrephes does not (acknowledge my authority/[pay any attention to what] I wrote), because he (desires to be in charge/wants to be the leader) of [the congregation].
या चिट्ठी मय न मण्डली ख भी लिख्यो होतो, पर दियुत्रिफेस जो उन्म मुखिया बननो चाहवय हय, ऊ मोरी बातों पर ध्यान नहीं लगावय।
10 So, when I arrive [there], I will [publicly] tell what he does: He tells others evil nonsense about us [in order to] harm [us by what he] says, and he is not content with only doing that. He himself refuses to receive the fellow believers who are traveling around doing God’s work, and he also stops those who want to receive them by expelling them from the congregation.
येकोलायी जब मय आऊं त ओको कामों की जो ऊ कर रह्यो हय, याद दिलाऊं, कि ऊ हमरो बारे म बुरी बाते बकय हय; अऊर हमरो बारे म झूठी बाते बतावय हय पर इतनोच ओको लायी काफी नहाय ऊ मसीही भाऊवों ख स्वीकार नहीं करय, जब हि आवय हय अऊर उन्ख भी रोकय हय जो स्वीकार करनो चाहवय हंय अऊर पूरी कोशिश करय हय कि उन्ख मण्डली सी बाहेर निकाले।
11 Dear friend, do not imitate a bad [example like that]. Instead, [keep imitating] good [examples. Remember that] people who do good deeds ([truly] belong to God/are [spiritual children] of God), [but] those who do [what is] evil do not (know/have fellowship with) God.
हे प्रिय संगी, बुरायी को नहीं पर भलायी को अनुयायी हो। जो भलायी करय हय, ऊ परमेश्वर को तरफ सी हय; पर जो बुरायी करय हय, ओन परमेश्वर ख नहीं देख्यो।
12 All [the believers who know Demetrius] say that he [is a good person]. The fact [that he conducts his life in a way that is consistent/in accordance with God’s] true [message] shows [that he is a good person], and we also say the same thing [about him]. You know that what we say [about him] is true. [So it will be good if you welcome him and help him. He is the one who will be bringing this letter to you].
दिमेत्रियुस को बारे म सब लोगों न अच्छी गवाही दियो; अऊर हम भी गवाही देजे हंय, अऊर तय जानय हय कि हमरी गवाही सच्ची हय।
13 [When I began] to write this letter, I had much more [that I intended] to tell you. But [now] I do not want to say [it] in a letter [MTY].
मोख तोख बहुत कुछ लिखनो त होतो, पर स्याही अऊर कलम सी लिखनो नहीं चाहऊ।
14 Instead, I expect to [come and] see you soon. Then we will talk directly with one another. [I pray that God will enable] you [to experience inner] peace. Our friends [here] (send you their greetings/say that they are thinking affectionately about you) [MTY]. Tell our friends [there] that we (send our greetings to/are thinking fondly about) them.
पर मोख आशा हय कि तोरो सी जल्दी मिलूं, तब हम आमने सामने बातचीत करबो। तोख शान्ति मिलती रहेंन। यहां को तोरो सब संगियों को तोख नमस्कार। उत को संगियों ख भी नमस्कार कह्य देजो।
