< 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.
Презбитерул кэтре пряюбитул Гаюс, пе каре-л юбеск ын адевэр.
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].
Пряюбитуле, дореск ка тоате лукруриле тале сэ-ць мяргэ бине ши сэнэтатя та сэ споряскэ тот аша кум спореште суфлетул тэу.
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.
А фост о маре букурие пентру мине кынд ау венит фраций ши ау мэртурисит кэ ешть крединчос адевэрулуй ши кэ умбли ын адевэр.
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!
Еу н-ам букурие май маре декыт сэ ауд деспре копиий мей кэ умблэ ын адевэр.
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].
Пряюбитуле, ту лукрезь ку крединчошие ын тот че фачь пентру фраць ши пентру стрэинь тотодатэ.
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.
Ей ау мэртурисит деспре драгостя та ынаинтя Бисеричий. Вей фаче бине сэ ынгрижешть де кэлэтория лор ынтр-ун кип вредник де Думнезеу,
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].
кэч ау плекат пентру драгостя Нумелуй Луй, фэрэ сэ примяскэ чева де ла нямурь.
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.
Есте датория ноастрэ дар сэ примим бине пе астфел де оамень, ка сэ лукрэм ымпреунэ ку адевэрул.
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].
Ам скрис чева Бисеричий, дар Диотреф, кэруя ый плаче сэ айбэ ынтыетатя ынтре ей, ну вря сэ штие де ной.
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.
Де ачея, кынд вой вени, ый вой адуче аминте де фаптеле пе каре ле фаче, кэч не клеветеште ку ворбе реле. Ну се мулцумеште ку атыт, дар нич ел ну примеште пе фраць ши ымпедикэ ши пе чей че воеск сэ-й примяскэ ши-й дэ афарэ дин Бисерикэ.
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.
Пряюбитуле, ну урма рэул, чи бинеле. Чине фаче бинеле есте дин Думнезеу; чине фаче рэул н-а вэзут пе Думнезеу.
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].
Тоць, кяр ши Адевэрул, мэртурисеск бине деспре Димитрие; ши ной мэртурисим деспре ел: ши штий кэ мэртурисиря ноастрэ есте адевэратэ.
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].
Аш авя сэ-ць спун мулте лукрурь, дар ну воеск сэ ци ле скриу ку чернялэ ши кондей.
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.
Нэдэждуеск сэ те вэд ын курынд ши атунч вом ворби гурэ кэтре гурэ. Пачя сэ фие ку тине. Приетений ыць тримит сэнэтате. Спуне сэнэтате приетенилор, фиекэруя пе нуме. Амин.
