Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Kaparali Gajusungu ngantjaluni, nina ngato morlalu ngantjai.
1The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.
2Ngantjalu, ngato ngantjai, jundru warupotuni tepi ngumu ngamalkananto, ja jidni tepi ngamananto, worderu mungara jinkani tepi ngumu ngamalkai.
2Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
3Ngani pirna mankina piraia, ngatata wora matja wokarana paraia, ja jinkani morlalulandru tinkari ngankana paraia, worderu jidni morlalulani wirariai.
3For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.
4Mankini morla pirna ngato wata ngamalkai nunkangu, ngarala kupa ngakani morlalulani wirariai.
4I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
5Ngantjalu, jundru talku ngankai pratjanani, mina jundru ngankana paraia ngatatani, tana tidnapalara nganai,
5Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;
6Tanali jinkani ngantjanandru tinkari ngankana paraia mili wolarani, ja jundru ngumu ngankala nganai, jundru tanana ngankingankibanani, worderu Godani talku nganai.
6Which have borne witness of thy charity before the church: whom if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly sort, thou shalt do well:
7Ngangau tana dunkana paraia nunkani talandru, ja tanali panila maniai kana kondru.
7Because that for his name’s sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.
8Jeruja ngaiana wilpa nganai jenipara patala, ngaiana tanani jelangankanietja pantjinanto morlalulaia.
8We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.
9Ngato mili wolarani dakana warai, ja Diotrephes, nau pirna ngundrateriai, nulu ngaianana wata patai.
9I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not.
10Jendrangundruja, ngani wokaranani, ngato nina mangatandra, nunkani ngankanandru, tanana nulu ngankai, wilpa ngankala nganai, ngangau jaura kaldrieli nau ngaianangu jatajatai, ja morla, nulu bakana ngatata wata patai, ja nulu tanana ngandrawalkai, tana jenia jertapateriai ngankala, ja tanana mili wolarandru dangai.
10Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.
11Ngantjalu, wata madlentjani karipateriau, a‐ai, ngumuni. Warle ngumu ngakai, nau Godandru nganai; warle madlentji ngankai, nulu Goda wata najinala.
11Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
12Pratjanali, ja bakana morlalulali muntali, Demetriusungu jaura ngumu tinkari ngankai, ja bakana ngaiana nunkangundru tinkari ngankai, ja jidni milkila, tinkari ngankani ngaianani morlalu nganai.
12Demetrius hath good report of all men , and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our record is true.
13Ngato marapu ngamalkai jinkangu dakala, ja ngato wata ngantjai marujeli ja pitali jenia ngankala.
13I had many things to write, but I will not with ink and pen write unto thee:
14Ngato ngundrai jidna wolja najila, ngadani ngaldra manali manani kaukaubijiribamalila nganai.
14But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and we shall speak face to face. Peace be to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name.
15Murla jinkangunto nganaiatimai! Kamanelieli jinkangu mandurini jaura jinpai. Mandurini jaura jinkiau kamanelini tala pilki ja pilkieli.
