٢ تيموثاوس 4

١ 1 أَنَا أُنَاشِدُكَ إِذًا أَمَامَ ٱللهِ وَٱلرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، ٱلْعَتِيدِ أَنْ يَدِينَ ٱلْأَحْيَاءَ وَٱلْأَمْوَاتَ، عِنْدَ ظُهُورِهِ وَمَلَكُوتِهِ:

I adjure you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is about to judge the living and the dead - by his appearing and his kingdom, I adjure you -

٢ 2 ٱكْرِزْ بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ. ٱعْكُفْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فِي وَقْتٍ مُنَاسِبٍ وَغَيْرِ مُنَاسِبٍ. وَبِّخِ، ٱنْتَهِرْ، عِظْ بِكُلِّ أَنَاةٍ وَتَعْلِيمٍ.

proclaim the message, be urgent in season and out of season; convince, rebuke, encourage, with never-failing patience and teaching.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ وَقْتٌ لَا يَحْتَمِلُونَ فِيهِ ٱلتَّعْلِيمَ ٱلصَّحِيحَ، بَلْ حَسَبَ شَهَوَاتِهِمُ ٱلْخَاصَّةِ يَجْمَعُونَ لَهُمْ مُعَلِّمِينَ مُسْتَحِكَّةً مَسَامِعُهُمْ،

For a time will come when they will not listen to wholesome teaching, but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will heap up for themselves teachers upon teachers to satisfy their own fancies.

٤ 4 فَيَصْرِفُونَ مَسَامِعَهُمْ عَنِ ٱلْحَقِّ، وَيَنْحَرِفُونَ إِلَى ٱلْخُرَافَاتِ.

They will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to myths.

٥ 5 وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَٱصْحُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. ٱحْتَمِلِ ٱلْمَشَقَّاتِ. ٱعْمَلْ عَمَلَ ٱلْمُبَشِّرِ. تَمِّمْ خِدْمَتَكَ.

But as for you, be always self-controlled, face hardships, do the work of a missionary, discharge all the duties of your ministry.

٦ 6 فَإِنِّي أَنَا ٱلْآنَ أُسْكَبُ سَكِيبًا، وَوَقْتُ ٱنْحِلَالِي قَدْ حَضَرَ.

I for my part am a libation already being poured in sacrifice; and the time of my unmooring is at hand.

٧ 7 قَدْ جَاهَدْتُ ٱلْجِهَادَ ٱلْحَسَنَ، أَكْمَلْتُ ٱلسَّعْيَ، حَفِظْتُ ٱلْإِيمَانَ،

I have fought in the glorious contest; I have run the race; I have kept the faith.

٨ 8 وَأَخِيرًا قَدْ وُضِعَ لِي إِكْلِيلُ ٱلْبِرِّ، ٱلَّذِي يَهَبُهُ لِي فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلدَّيَّانُ ٱلْعَادِلُ، وَلَيْسَ لِي فَقَطْ، بَلْ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ ظُهُورَهُ أَيْضًا.

Henceforth there is laid up for me the garland of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that Day, and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

٩ 9 بَادِرْ أَنْ تَجِيءَ إِلَيَّ سَرِيعًا،

Do your best to come to me speedily,

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّ دِيمَاسَ قَدْ تَرَكَنِي إِذْ أَحَبَّ ٱلْعَالَمَ ٱلْحَاضِرَ وَذَهَبَ إِلَى تَسَالُونِيكِي، وَكِرِيسْكِيسَ إِلَى غَلَاطِيَّةَ، وَتِيطُسَ إِلَى دَلْمَاطِيَّةَ. (aiōn g165)

for Demas has deserted me for love of this present world, and is gone to Thessalonica; Crescens is gone to Galatia; Titus to Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)

١١ 11 لُوقَا وَحْدَهُ مَعِي. خُذْ مَرْقُسَ وَأَحْضِرْهُ مَعَكَ لِأَنَّهُ نَافِعٌ لِي لِلْخِدْمَةِ.

Luke only is with me. Pick up Mark, and bring him with you, for he is useful to me in my ministry.

١٢ 12 أَمَّا تِيخِيكُسُ فَقَدْ أَرْسَلْتُهُ إِلَى أَفَسُسَ.

Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.

١٣ 13 اَلرِّدَاءَ ٱلَّذِي تَرَكْتُهُ فِي تَرُواسَ عِنْدَ كَارْبُسَ، أَحْضِرْهُ مَتَى جِئْتَ، وَٱلْكُتُبَ أَيْضًا وَلَا سِيَّمَا ٱلرُّقُوقَ.

When you come, bring the cloak I left in Troas with Carpus; also my books, but especially my parchments.

١٤ 14 إِسْكَنْدَرُ ٱلنَّحَّاسُ أَظْهَرَ لِي شُرُورًا كَثِيرَةً. لِيُجَازِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ حَسَبَ أَعْمَالِهِ.

Alexander, the coppersmith, manifested bitter hostility toward me. The Lord will requite him according to his works.

١٥ 15 فَٱحْتَفِظْ مِنْهُ أَنْتَ أَيْضًا، لِأَنَّهُ قَاوَمَ أَقْوَالَنَا جِدًّا.

Be also on your guard against him, for he has violently opposed my arguments.

١٦ 16 فِي ٱحْتِجَاجِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ لَمْ يَحْضُرْ أَحَدٌ مَعِي، بَلِ ٱلْجَمِيعُ تَرَكُونِي. لَا يُحْسَبْ عَلَيْهِمْ.

At the time of my first defense no one stood by me; on the contrary they all deserted me - may it not be laid to their charge!

١٧ 17 وَلَكِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ وَقَفَ مَعِي وَقَوَّانِي، لِكَيْ تُتَمَّ بِي ٱلْكِرَازَةُ، وَيَسْمَعَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأُمَمِ، فَأُنْقِذْتُ مِنْ فَمِ ٱلْأَسَدِ.

Nevertheless the Lord Jesus stood by me, and strengthened my heart, that through me full proclamation of the gospel might be made, and the Gentiles might hear it; and I was rescued from the lion’s jaws.

١٨ 18 وَسَيُنْقِذُنِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ كُلِّ عَمَلٍ رَدِيءٍ وَيُخَلِّصُنِي لِمَلَكُوتِهِ ٱلسَّمَاوِيِّ. ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلْمَجْدُ إِلَى دَهْرِ ٱلدُّهُورِ. آمِينَ. (aiōn g165)

And the Lord will rescue me from every evil assault, and will preserve me for his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever! Amen! (aiōn g165)

١٩ 19 سَلِّمْ عَلَى فِرِسْكَا وَأَكِيلَا وَبَيْتِ أُنِيسِيفُورُسَ.

Give my greetings to Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.

٢٠ 20 أَرَاسْتُسُ بَقِيَ فِي كُورِنْثُوسَ. وَأَمَّا تُرُوفِيمُسُ فَتَرَكْتُهُ فِي مِيلِيتُسَ مَرِيضًا.

Erastus remained at Corinth; Trophimus I left behind me ill at Miletus.

٢١ 21 بَادِرْ أَنْ تَجِيءَ قَبْلَ ٱلشِّتَاءِ. يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْكَ أَفْبُولُسُ وَبُودِيسُ وَلِينُسُ وَكَلَافِدِيَّةُ وَٱلْإِخْوَةُ جَمِيعًا.

Do try to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, and so do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brotherhood.

٢٢ 22 اَلرَّبُّ يَسُوعُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ مَعَ رُوحِكَ. اَلنِّعْمَةُ مَعَكُمْ. آمِينَ.

The Lord Jesus be with your spirit. Grace be with you all.
