1Die ouderling aan Gajus, die geliefde, wat ek in waarheid liefhet.Ὁ πρεσβύτερος Γαΐῳ τῷ ἀγαπητῷ, ὃν ἐγὼ ἀγαπῶ ἐν ἀληθείᾳ.The elder, To the beloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth:
2Geliefde, ek bid dat dit in alles met jou goed mag gaan en dat jy gesond mag wees, soos dit met jou siel goed gaan.aOf: bo alles bid ek dat dit met jou goed mag gaanἈγαπητέ, περὶ πάντων εὔχομαί σε εὐοδοῦσθαι καὶ ὑγιαίνειν, καθὼς εὐοδοῦταί σου ἡ ψυχή.Beloved, I pray that in every way you may prosper and enjoy good health, as your soul also prospers.3Want ek was baie bly toe broers gekom het en van jou waarheid getuig het, soos jy in waarheid wandel.ἐχάρην γὰρ λίαν ἐρχομένων ἀδελφῶν καὶ μαρτυρούντων σου τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, καθὼς σὺ ἐν ἀληθείᾳ περιπατεῖς.For I was overjoyed when the brothers came and testified about your devotion to the truth, in which you continue to walk.4Ek het geen groter vreugde as hierdie nie: dat ek my kinders in die waarheid hoor wandel.aSommige manuskripte lees: Sommige manuskripte lees “genade” in plaas van “vreugde”.μειζοτέραν τούτων οὐκ ἔχω ⸀χαράν, ἵνα ἀκούω τὰ ἐμὰ τέκνα ἐν ⸀τῇ ἀληθείᾳ περιπατοῦντα.I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.
5Geliefde, jy doen 'n getroue daad in alles wat jy vir die broers werk, en dit nog wel vir vreemdelinge,Ἀγαπητέ, πιστὸν ποιεῖς ὃ ἐὰν ἐργάσῃ εἰς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ ⸀τοῦτο ξένους,Beloved, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers, and especially since they are strangers to you.6wat voor die gemeente van jou liefde getuig het; jy sal goed doen om hulle op hul reis voort te help op 'n wyse wat God waardig is.οἳ ἐμαρτύρησάν σου τῇ ἀγάπῃ ἐνώπιον ἐκκλησίας, οὓς καλῶς ποιήσεις προπέμψας ἀξίως τοῦ θεοῦ·They have testified to the church about your love. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God.7want ter wille van die Naam het hulle uitgegaan, sonder om iets van die heidene te ontvang.ὑπὲρ γὰρ τοῦ ὀνόματος ἐξῆλθον μηδὲν λαμβάνοντες ἀπὸ τῶν ⸀ἐθνικῶν.For they went out on behalf of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles.8Ons behoort dus sulke mense te ondersteun, sodat ons medewerkers van die waarheid kan word.aOf: medewerkers saam met die waarheidἡμεῖς οὖν ὀφείλομεν ⸀ὑπολαμβάνειν τοὺς τοιούτους, ἵνα συνεργοὶ γινώμεθα τῇ ἀληθείᾳ.Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers for the truth.
9Ek het iets aan die gemeente geskryf, maar Diotrefes, wat daarvan hou om eerste onder hulle te wees, ontvang ons nie.Ἔγραψά ⸀τι τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ· ἀλλʼ ὁ φιλοπρωτεύων αὐτῶν Διοτρέφης οὐκ ἐπιδέχεται ἡμᾶς.I have written to the church about this, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not accept our instruction.10Daarom, as ek kom, sal ek sy werke wat hy doen, ter sprake bring: hy praat met bose woorde kwaad van ons, en nie daarmee tevrede nie, ontvang hy self nie die broers nie, en dié wat dit wil doen, verhinder hy en werp hy uit die gemeente uit.διὰ τοῦτο, ἐὰν ἔλθω, ὑπομνήσω αὐτοῦ τὰ ἔργα ἃ ποιεῖ, λόγοις πονηροῖς φλυαρῶν ἡμᾶς, καὶ μὴ ἀρκούμενος ἐπὶ τούτοις οὔτε αὐτὸς ἐπιδέχεται τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς καὶ τοὺς βουλομένους κωλύει καὶ ἐκ τῆς ἐκκλησίας ἐκβάλλει.So if I come, I will call attention to his malicious slander against us. And unsatisfied with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers and forbids those who want to do so, even putting them out of the church.
11Geliefde, volg nie die kwaad na nie, maar die goeie. Wie goed doen, is uit God; wie kwaad doen, het God nie gesien nie.Ἀγαπητέ, μὴ μιμοῦ τὸ κακὸν ἀλλὰ τὸ ἀγαθόν. ὁ ἀγαθοποιῶν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν· ὁ κακοποιῶν οὐχ ἑώρακεν τὸν θεόν.Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.12Van Demetrius is deur almal getuig, en deur die waarheid self; en ook ons getuig, en jy weet dat ons getuienis waar is.aSommige manuskripte lees: julle weetΔημητρίῳ μεμαρτύρηται ὑπὸ πάντων καὶ ὑπὸ αὐτῆς τῆς ἀληθείας· καὶ ἡμεῖς δὲ μαρτυροῦμεν, καὶ ⸀οἶδας ὅτι ἡ μαρτυρία ἡμῶν ἀληθής ἐστιν.Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself. We also testify for him, and you know that our testimony is true.
13Ek het baie gehad om aan jou te skryf, maar ek wil nie met ink en pen aan jou skryf nie.Πολλὰ εἶχον ⸂γράψαι σοι⸃, ἀλλʼ οὐ θέλω διὰ μέλανος καὶ καλάμου σοι ⸀γράφειν·I have many things to write to you, but I would prefer not to do so with pen and ink.14maar ek hoop om jou binnekort te sien, en ons sal mond tot mond praat.ἐλπίζω δὲ εὐθέως ⸂σε ἰδεῖν⸃, καὶ στόμα πρὸς στόμα λαλήσομεν.Instead, I hope to see you soon and speak with you face to face. Peace to you. The friends here send you greetings. Greet each of our friends there by name.
15Vrede aan jou. Die vriende groet jou. Groet die vriende by name.Εἰρήνη σοι. ἀσπάζονταί σε οἱ φίλοι. ἀσπάζου τοὺς φίλους κατʼ ὄνομα.
