2 Juan 1

Pur avendo molte cose da scrivervi, non ho voluto farlo per mezzo di carta e d’inchiostro; ma spero di venire da voi e di parlarvi a voce, affinché la vostra allegrezza sia compiuta.

Aunque tengo muchas cosas que escribiros, no he querido comunicarlas por medio de papel y tinta; mas espero ir á vosotros, y hablar boca á boca, para que nuestro gozo sea cumplido.

Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

Having many things to write to you, I don’t want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
