2 Timothy 2
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
Su gwenga mwana gwangu gugangamali muuheri wa Mlungu watupanananwa kwa njira ya kuwera pamuhera na Kristu Yesu.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
Gutoli mafundu galii gagupikaniriti panugabwera kulongolu kwa wakapitawu wavuwa, guwapanani wantu wawajimirika, walii yawavimana ntambu ya kuwafunda wamonga.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Gugangamali muntabiku gambira shonta mjimirika gwa Kristu Yesu.
4 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.
Shonta pakawera mung'ondu kaliyingiziyi ndiri muvitwatira vya mashaka goseri, katendi vitwatira vya ng'ondu su kamfiriziyi mkulu gwa mashonta.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, [yet] is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
Viraa vilii muntu yoseri yakatuga mbiru kaweza ndiri kukanka na kupananwa lifupu lya kukanka handa pakajimira ndiri malagaliru ga madingu.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
Yakalima mweni katenditi lihengu likamala kafiruwa kaweri gwa kwanja kwanka mabenu.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
Guliholi aga gantakula, toziya Mtuwa hakakupanani makakala gakuvimana kila shintu.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
Gumholi Yesu Kristu yakazyukusiyitwi, yakaweriti gwa lukolu lwa Dawudi, ntambu yashilonga Shisoweru Shiwagira yanushibwera,
9 Where in I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, [even] unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
hangu ntabika na ntawalilwa minyololu gambira mtenda makondola. Kumbiti Shisoweru sha Mlungu shitawika ndiri minyololu.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
Hangu nankuhepelera muvitwatira vyoseri toziya ya wantu wawasagulitwi na Mlungu, su womberi viraa wanki ulopoziya wawupananwa kwa njira Kristu Yesu weni kajega ukwisa wa mashaka goseri. (aiōnios g166)
11 [It is] a faithful saying: For if we be dead with [him], we shall also live with [him]:
Utakula awu wanakaka, “Handa tuhowiti pamuhera na yomberi, Hatulikali viraa pamuhera nayomberi.
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with [him]: if we deny [him], he also will deny us:
Patwendeleya kuhepelera, Hatukolimlima pamuhera na yomberi viraa. Handa patumlema yomberi, Na yomberi hakatulemi twenga.
13 If we believe not, [yet] he abideth faithful: he can not deny himself.
Handa patusinda kuwera wajimirika, Yomberi hakasigali mjimirika mashaka goseri, Toziya yomberi hapeni kagalambuli galii gakalonga.”
14 Of these things put [them] in remembrance, charging [them] before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, [but] to the subverting of the hearers.
Su guwaholiziyi wantu waku vitwatira avi na kuwaberiziya kulongolu kwa Mlungu waleki ndewu ya visoweru. Ukakatala awu utanga ndiri, su ujega uhalibisiya mkulu kwa walii yawapikanira.
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Gugangamali kulilanguziya kuwera mjimirika palongolu pa Mlungu gambira mtenda lihengu mweni yakawona ndiri soni toziya ya lihengu lyakuwi mweni yakafunda weri shisoweru sha nakaka.
16 But shun profane [and] vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
Gulikali kutali na visoweru vyavimfiriziya ndiri Mlungu na vya shizyigizyigi, toziya geni gongera kuwatenda wantu waweri kutali na Mlungu.
17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
Mafundu ga ntambu ayi ndo handa lilonda lyalikula kanongola na kuliya nshimba. Pakati pawu yawafunditi aga ndo Himenayu na Filetu.
18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
Womberi wapotoka nentu na unakaka, wayihalibisiya njimiru ya wantu wamonga mushashatiku pawalonga handa uzyukisiya watuhepelera utendeka kala.
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
Kumbiti unakaka wa Mlungu uweriti ungagamala gambira libuwi lya lyanjiru, visoweru avi vilembwa panani pakuwi. “Mtuwa kawamana walii yawaweriti wakuwi,” Na “Kila muntu yakalishema handa yomberi ndo gwa Mtuwa na kaleki ukondola.”
20 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 honour, and some to dishonour.
Mngati munumba nkulu, mwana mabakuli na vyombu vya kila ntambu, vyamonga vya vinyawitwi kwa mabuhi ga mpiya na zaabu vya kutendera mahengu ga gweka, vyamonga vyombu vya mitera na vyombu vya ukaka vyakutendera mahengu ga mashaka goseri.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, [and] prepared unto every good work.
Su handa muntu pakalipunga kwa kulitula kutali na vitwatira vya ukondola woseri, hakaweri handa shitenderu sha kutendera lihengu lya gweka toziya kusyagulwa na kamfiriziya Mtuwa gwakuwi na kawera kala kwa kila lihengu liherepa.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Gukali kutali na lumatamata lya untemba, gufati yagamfiriziya Mlungu na njimiru na mafiliru na ponga pamuhera na wantu woseri yawamluwa Mtuwa kwa moyu gwaguherepa.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
Gulikali kutali na makakatala ga uzigizigi na ungali mahala, guvimana handa aga gajega ndewu.
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all [men], apt to teach, patient,
Su ntumintumi gwa Mtuwa nakalirewa. Kafiruwa kaweri mnanaga kwa wantu woseri, na Mfunda kaherepa na mhepelera.
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
Mweni ndo mnanaga pakawaberiziya wasingani wakuwi, toziya Mlungu mekawapanani lupenyu lya kuleka vidoda vyawu, na kuumana unakaka,
26 And [that] they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
kwa njira ayi kaweza kuvimana kulipota mumgomuziwu gwa mkondola gwakawagomuziyiti na kutenda wagajimiri mafiliru gakuwi.
