2 Timoteori 2
1 Hi bada, ene semé, fortificadi Iesus Christ baithan den gratián:
Do you, then, my Child, find strength in the help which comes from the union with Christ Jesus;
2 Eta anhitz testimonioren artean eneganic ençun dituan gauçác, iracats ietzec gende fideley, cein bercen-ere iracasteco sufficient içanen baitirade.
and what you learnt from me, in the presence of many listeners, entrust to reliable men, who will be able in their turn to teach others.
3 Hic bada trabaillu suffri eçac Iesus Christen gendarmés on anço.
Share hardships with me, as a true soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 Eztuc nehor guerlán empatchatzen vicitzeco eguitecoéz, guerla eguiteco hautatu duenaren gogaraco dençát.
A soldier on active service, to please his superior officer, always avoids entangling himself in the affairs of ordinary life.
5 Halaber baldin nehorc combatic eguiten badu, eztuc coroatzen baldin bidezqui combatitu ezpada.
No athlete is ever awarded the wreath of victory unless he has kept the rules.
6 Laborariac trabaillatu behar dic fructuric recebi deçan baino lehen.
The labourer who does the work should be the first to receive a share of the fruits of the earth.
7 Consideraitzac erraiten ditudan gauçác: Iaunac bada eman dieçála adimendu gauça gucietan.
Reflect upon what I say; the Lord will always help you to understand.
8 Aicén orhoit Iesus Christ resuscitatu içan dela hiletaric, Dauid-en hacitic celaric, ene Euangelioaren araura:
Keep before your mind Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, a descendant of David, as told in the Good News entrusted to me;
9 Ceinetan, gaizquiguile anço, affligitzen bainaiz estecailluetarano: baina Iaunaren hitza eztuc estecatua.
in the service of which I am suffering hardships, even to being put in fetters as a criminal. But the Message of God is not fettered;
10 Halacotz gauça guciac suffritzen citiát elegituacgatic, hec-ere obteni deçatençát Iesus Christ Iaunean den saluamendua, gloria eternalarequin. (aiōnios g166)
and that is why I submit to anything for the sake of God’s People, that they also may obtain the Salvation which comes from union with Christ Jesus, and imperishable glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 Hitz segura duc haur: Ecen baldin harequin hil içan bagara, harequin vicico-ere garela.
How true this saying is — ‘If we have shared his death, we shall also share his life.
12 Baldin suffritzen badugu, regnaturen-ere harequin diagu: baldin vkatzen badugu, harc-ere gu vkaturen guiaitic:
If we continue to endure, we shall also share his throne. If we should ever disown him, he, too, will disown us.
13 Baldin desleyal bagara, hura ordea fidel diagoc, vka bere buruä ecin ceçaquec.
If we lose our trust, he is still to be trusted, for he cannot be false to himself!’
14 Arramberritzac gauça hauc, protestatzen dualaric Iaunaren aitzinean ezteçan nehorc hitzez iharduqui, baita probetchuric batre ekarten eztuen gauça, aitzitic ençuleac erautzen dituena.
Remind people of all this; urge them solemnly, as in the sight of God, to avoid controversy, a useless thing and the ruin of those who listen to it.
15 Diligentadi eure buruären Iaincoari approbatu presentatzera, confusione gabeco obrero, artezqui eguiaren hitza ebaquiten duála.
Do your utmost to show yourself true to God, a workman with no reason to be ashamed, accurate in delivering the Message of the Truth.
16 Oihu vanoac eta profanoac reprimitzac: ceren impietate handiagotara auançaturen baitirade.
Avoid profane prattle. Those who indulge in it only get deeper into irreligious ways,
17 Eta hayén hitza gangrená beçala alhaco duc, ceinetaric baitirade Hymeneo eta Phileto:
and their teaching will spread like a cancer. Hymenaeus and Philetus are instances of this.
18 Cein eguiatic erauci içan baitirade, erraiten dutela ia resurrectionea eguin içan dela, eta erautzen dié edocein batzuén fedea.
They have gone completely astray as regards the Truth; they say that a resurrection has already taken place, and so upset some people’s faith.
19 Alabaina Iaincoaren fundamenta fermu diagoc, cigulu haur duelaric, Eçagutzen ditu Iaunac cein diraden harenac: eta, Retira bedi iniustitiataric Christen icena inuocatzen duen gucia.
Yet God’s firm foundation still stands unmoved, and it bears this inscription — ‘THE LORD KNOWS THOSE WHO ARE HIS’; and this — ‘LET ALL THOSE WHO USE THE NAME OF THE LORD TURN AWAY FROM WICKEDNESS.’
20 Eta etche handi batetan eztuc solament vrrhezco eta cilharrezco vnciric, baina çurezcoric eta lurrezcoric-ere: eta batzu ohoretacotz, eta berceac desohoretacotz.
Now in a large house there are not only things of gold and silver, but also others of wood and earthenware, some for better and some for common use.
21 Bada nehorc baldin bere buruä hautaric chahu badeça, içanen duc vnci ohoretacotz sanctificatua, eta Iaunaren vsegetacotz carazcoa, eta Iaunaren obra on orotara appaindua.
If, then, a man has escaped from the pollution of such errors as I have mentioned, he will be like a thing kept for better use, set apart, serviceable to its owner, ready for any good purpose.
22 Gaztetassunaren guthiciey-ere ihes eguiéc, eta iarreiqui aquió iustitiari, fedeari, charitateari, baqueari bihotz purez Iauna inuocatzen dutenequin.
Flee from the passions of youth, but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, in the company of those who, with a pure heart, invoke the Lord.
23 Eta questione erhoac, eta instructione gabetacoac iraizquic, daquialaric ecen hec gudu engendratzen dutela.
Shun foolish and ignorant discussions, for you know that they only breed quarrels;
24 Bada Iaunaren cerbitzariac eztic reuoltari içan behar, baina eme gucietara, iracasteco carazco, patientqui gaichtoac supportatzen dituelaric:
and a Servant of the Lord should never quarrel. He ought, on the contrary, to be courteous to every one, a skilful teacher, and forbearing.
25 Emetassunequin iracasten dituelaric opinione contrariotaco diradenac: eya noizpait Iaincoac vrriquimendu eman dieçaqueenez eguiaren eçagutzeco,
He should instruct his opponents in a gentle spirit; for, possibly, God may give them a repentance that will lead to a fuller knowledge of Truth,
26 Eta emenda ditecen, haren vorondatearen eguiteco, itzuriric deabruaren laçotic, ceinez hatzamanac baitaude.
and they may yet come to a sober mind, and escape from the snares of the Devil, when captured by the Lord’s Servant to do the will of God.
