2 Timotawus 2
1 Fe bara nani gono ning, se likara nanyan bolu Kutelle ulenge na udi nanyan Kristi Yesu.
Thou therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 Nin nimon ilenge na uwa lanza kiti ning nanya niyizi iba gbardang, na inin nanya nacara nanit acine alenge na ima yinnu udursuze wang.
And the things which thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Pira inniu nin mi nafo kusojan Kristi Yesu kucine.
Suffer hardship with [me], as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 Na kusoja duku ko nakudi katwa akuyita nanya lanzun mang yii ulele, bara anan na una ubun me nmang.
No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of [this] life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
5 Tutung, andi umon cum nafo anan cum sesun nduk, na asa inaghe uduke ba se adofino tiduka ncume.
And if also a man contend in the games, he is not crowned, except he have contended lawfully.
6 Uso gbas ame unan katwa kune na adin su kang seru uduk nimon kunene nin cizunu.
The husbandman that laboreth must be the first to partake of the fruits.
7 Kpiliza kitene nimon ile na ndin bellu, bara Kutelle manifi uyinnun vat nimon.
Consider what I say; for the Lord shall give thee understanding in all things.
8 Lizinon Yesu Kristi ku, Ucizunun fimus in Dauda, urika na iwa fyghe nanyan kul. Ulele di cot nin liru ulau nighari,
Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel:
9 Urika na ndin niu udun terii nafo unan molsu nanit. Ama na ina teru uliru Kutelle ba.
wherein I suffer hardship unto bonds, as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Bara nani ndin teru nayi nanya nimon vat bara alenge na ina fere, inung wang nan se utucu ulenge na udin Kristi Yesu, nin gongon sa ligan. (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 Ulengee ubelle un yinnuari: “Andi ti kuu ninghe, tima kuru titi ulai ninghe.
Faithful is the saying: For if we died with him, we shall also live with him:
12 Andi ti tere nibinayi, tima kuru tisu tigo ninghe. Andi tinarighe, ame wang manari nari.
if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us:
13 Asa ti di nin diru kidegen ame wang baso sa kidegen, bara na awasa anari litime ba.”
if we are faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny himself.
14 Leu ubun lizunu nani nin nimong ilele. Wunno nani atuf nbun Kutelle na iwa su kabun kitene tigbula ba. Bara ilenge imone na imon duku icine ba. Bara ilenge imone ukul duku nalenge na idin lanzu.
Of these things put them in remembrance, charging [them] in the sight of the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of them that hear.
15 Fo kidowo udak nin litife ubun Kutelle imon seru nafo unit katwa sa ncin. Mino tigbulang kidegene gegeme.
Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth.
16 Suna uliru bidibidi, na udin du nin diru Kutelle.
But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness,
17 Uliru mine din malu kiti nafo ukul tijii kidowo. Nanya mine Himenes nin Piletus duku.
and their word will eat as doth a gangrene: of whom is Hymenæus and Philetus;
18 Alele anitari na wuro kidegene. Idin ufitu nanan kulen mal katu. Ina kpilya uyinnu sa uyenu namong.
men who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already, and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Vat nin nani, likara litino Kutelle yissin. Lidi nin nile imone: “Cikilare yiru alenge na idi anme” ni “Vat nlenge na idin yiccughe nin lissa Kutelle ama sunu katwa kanangzang gbas.”
Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.
20 Kilari nikurfu, na niti cinsu tizinariya nin azurfari duku cas ba. Kitin cisu nakatu duku nin tiwin. Nanya nalele in katwa kalau duku, a in katwa kanangzang ku.
Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.
21 Asa umong wese litime unuzu katwa kanangzang, ame kitin cisu nimon icinari. Ina kalaghe iceu ugan, ama yitu imon katwan Cikilari, inin kyeleghe bara kokame katwa kacine.
If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master’s use, prepared unto every good work.
22 Cong inuzu nanya kunaniyizi nfitu. Dorton katwa kacine nin cum, uyinnu sa uyenu, usuu, a lissosin limang nin nalenge na idin yiccu Cikilare ku nanya nibinayi nilau.
But flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 Ama narin utirinu tilalan nin dirun nonku liti. Uyiru nwo asa uda nin mayardang.
But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strifes.
24 Na kucin Kutelle nwasu kabun ba. Ama na yitu sheuwari kitin kogha, awasa adursuzo anin yita seng.
And the Lord’s servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing,
25 Amasu nin nonku liti udursuzu nalenge na inari uliru me. Nbata Kutelle nani ukpilu nanya yinnun liru kidegen.
in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth,
26 Iwasa iyita nin kpilu tutun inin suna libardang shintan, kimal nkifu mine na awa kifo bari katwa me.
and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will.
