Notes on this text (1)
- New Testament only; original spelling.
1 The Elder vnto the beloven Gayus whom I love in the trueth.
1 EL anciano al muy amado Gaio, al cual yo amo en verdad.
2 Beloved I wisshe in all thinges that thou prosperedest and faredest well even as thy soule prospereth.
2 Amado, yo deseo que tú seas prosperado en todas cosas, y que tengas salud, así como tu alma está en prosperidad.
3 I reioysed greatly when the brethren came and testified of the trueth that is in the how thou walkest in trouthe.
3 Ciertamente me gocé mucho cuando vinieron los hermanos y dieron testimonio de tu verdad, así como tú andas en la verdad.
4 I have no greater ioye then for to heare howe that my sonnes walke in veritie.
4 No tengo yo mayor gozo que éste, el oir que mis hijos andan en la verdad.
5 Beloved thou doest faythfully what soever thou doest to the brethren and to straungers
5 Amado, fielmente haces todo lo que haces para con los hermanos, y con los extranjeros,
6 which bare witnes of thy love before all the congregacion. Which brethren when thou bryngest forwardes on their iorney (as it besemeth god) thou shalt do well:
6 Los cuales han dado testimonio de tu amor en presencia de la iglesia: á los cuales si ayudares como conviene según Dios, harás bien.
7 because that for his names sake they went forth and toke nothinge of the gentyls.
7 Porque ellos partieron por amor de su nombre, no tomando nada de los Gentiles.
8 We therfore ought to receave soche that we also myght be helpers to the trueth.
8 Nosotros, pues, debemos recibir á los tales, para que seamos cooperadores á la verdad.
9 I wrote vnto the congregacion: but Diotrephes which loveth to have the preeminence amonge them receaveth vs not.
9 Yo he escrito á la iglesia: mas Diótrefes, que ama tener el primado entre ellos, no nos recibe.
10 Wherfore yf I come I will declare his dedes which he doeth iestinge on vs with malicious wordes nether is therewith content. Not only he him silfe receaveth not the brethren: but also he forbiddeth them that wolde and thrusteth them out of the congregacion.
10 Por esta causa, si yo viniere, recordaré las obras que hace parlando con palabras maliciosas contra nosotros; y no contento con estas cosas, no recibe á los hermanos, y prohibe á los que los quieren [recibir], y los echa de la iglesia.
11 Beloved folowe not that which is evyll but that which is good. He that doeth well is of God: but he that doeth evyll seith not God.
11 Amado, no sigas lo que es malo, sino lo que es bueno. El que hace bien es de Dios: mas el que hace mal, no ha visto á Dios.
12 Demetrius hath good reporte of all men and of the trueth: ye and we oure selves also beare recorde and ye knowe that oure recorde is true.
12 Todos dan testimonio de Demetrio, y [aun] la misma verdad: y también nosotros damos testimonio; y vosotros habéis conocido que nuestro testimonio es verdadero.
13 I have many thinges to wryte: but I will not with ynke and penne wryte vnto the.
13 Yo tenía muchas cosas que escribirte; empero no quiero escribirte por tinta y pluma:
14 For I trust I shall shortly se the and we shall speake mouth to mouth. Peace be with the. The lovers salute the. Grete the lovers by name.
14 Porque espero verte en breve, y hablaremos boca á boca. Paz [sea] contigo. Los amigos te saludan. Saluda tú á los amigos por nombre.
