Greeting
The elder to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all who know the truth,
The elder to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in truth, and not only I, but also all who know the truth,
Старець — вибраній панї і дїтям її, котрих я істино люблю (і не я тільки, а також усї, що пізнали правду),
because of the truth that abides in us and will be with us forever:
задля правди, що пробуває в нас, і з нами буде по вік:
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Father’s Son, in truth and love.
Нехай буде з вами благодать, милость, впокій від Бога Отця, і від Господа Ісуса Христа, Сина Отцївського, в правдї і любові.
Walking in Truth and Love
I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as we were commanded by the Father.
I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as we were commanded by the Father.
Вельми я зрадував ся, що знайшов дїтей твоїх, ходячих в правдї, яко ж заповідь прийняли ми від Отця.
And now I ask you, dear lady — not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning — that we love one another.
І тепер прошу тебе, панї, не яко нову заповідь пишу тобі, а котру мали ми від почину, щоб любили один одного.
And this is love, that we walk according to his commandments; this is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, so that you should walk in it.
І се любов, щоб ми ходили по заповідям Його. Се заповідь, яко ж ви чули від почину, щоб у нїй ходили.
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Бо многі зводителї увійшли у сьвіт, котрі не визнають Ісуса Христа, що прийшов у тїлї; а такий зводитель і антихрист.
Глядїть на себе, щоб не згубити нам, що заробили, а щоб нагороду повну прийняли.
Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.
Кожен, хто переступає, а не пробуває в науцї Христовій, не має Бога; хто пробуває в науцї Христовій, сей має і Отця і Сина.
If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting,
Коли хто приходить до вас, і сієї науки не приносить, не приймайте його у хату, і не витайте його;
for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.
хто бо його витає, бере участь в дїлах його лихих.
Final Greetings
Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink. Instead I hope to come to you and talk face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

Маючи много вам писати, не схотїв на папері і чернилом, а надїюсь прийти до вас, і устами з вами говорити, щоб благодать ваша була повна.
