2 Timotawus 2
1 Fe bara nani gono ning, se likara nanyan bolu Kutelle ulenge na udi nanyan Kristi Yesu.
Thou therefore, my son, be strong 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 that 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.
Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 Na kusoja duku ko nakudi katwa akuyita nanya lanzun mang yii ulele, bara anan na una ubun me nmang.
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of [this] life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 Tutung, andi umon cum nafo anan cum sesun nduk, na asa inaghe uduke ba se adofino tiduka ncume.
And if a man also striveth for masteries, [yet] is he not crowned, except he striveth lawfully.
6 Uso gbas ame unan katwa kune na adin su kang seru uduk nimon kunene nin cizunu.
The husbandman that laboreth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Kpiliza kitene nimon ile na ndin bellu, bara Kutelle manifi uyinnun vat nimon.
Consider what I say; and the Lord 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 that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 Urika na ndin niu udun terii nafo unan molsu nanit. Ama na ina teru uliru Kutelle ba.
In which I suffer trouble, as an evil-doer, [even] to bonds; 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 sake of the elect, that they may also 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.
[It is] a faithful saying: For if we are dead 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 suffer, we shall also reign with [him]: if we 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 believe not, [yet] he abideth faithful: 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] before the Lord that they contend not about words to no profit, [but] to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Fo kidowo udak nin litife ubun Kutelle imon seru nafo unit katwa sa ncin. Mino tigbulang kidegene gegeme.
Study to show thyself approved to God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 Suna uliru bidibidi, na udin du nin diru Kutelle.
But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase to more 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 canker: of whom is Hymeneus and Philetus;
18 Alele anitari na wuro kidegene. Idin ufitu nanan kulen mal katu. Ina kpilya uyinnu sa uyenu namong.
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.”
Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth firm, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
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.
But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to 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 will cleanse himself from these, he will be a vessel to honor, sanctified and meet for the master's use, [and] prepared to 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.
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, 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 unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they gender contentions.
24 Na kucin Kutelle nwasu kabun ba. Ama na yitu sheuwari kitin kogha, awasa adursuzo anin yita seng.
And the servant of the Lord must not contend; but be gentle to all [men], apt to teach, patient,
25 Amasu nin nonku liti udursuzu nalenge na inari uliru me. Nbata Kutelle nani ukpilu nanya yinnun liru kidegen.
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God perhaps will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth:
26 Iwasa iyita nin kpilu tutun inin suna libardang shintan, kimal nkifu mine na awa kifo bari katwa me.
And [that] they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
