2 Timothy 3
1 But know this: In the last days there will be difficult times.
Asi uzive chinhu ichi: Kuchava nenguva dzokutambudzika pamazuva okupedzisira.
2 For people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, and unholy.
Vanhu vachava vanozvida, vanoda mari, vanozvirumbidza, vanozvikudza, vanotuka, vasingateereri vabereki, vasingatendi, vasina utsvene,
3 They will be without natural affection, unable to reconcile, slanderers, without self-control, violent, not lovers of good.
vasina rudo, vasingaregereri, vanochera vamwe, vasingazvidzori, vane utsinye, vasingadi zvinhu zvakanaka,
4 They will be betrayers, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.
vanomukira, vanoita manyawi, vanonyengera, vanoda kuzvifadza nezvenyika kupfuura Mwari;
5 They will have a shape of godliness, but they will deny its power. Turn away from these people.
vane mufananidzo bedzi wokunamata Mwari asi vachiramba simba racho. Siyana navanhu ivavo.
6 For some of them are men who enter into households and captivate foolish women. These are women who are heaped up with sins and are led away by various desires.
Nokuti ndivo vaya vanoverevedza vachipinda mudzimba vachitapa vakadzi vasingazvibati vakaremedzwa nezvivi zvizhinji,
7 These women are always learning, but they are never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
vanogara vachidzidza asi vasingatongosviki pakuziva chokwadi.
8 In the same way that Jannes and Jambres stood against Moses, these false teachers also stand against the truth. They are men corrupt in mind, and with regard to the faith they are proven to be false.
Sezvakaita Janesi naJambiresi vakadzivisa Mozisi, varume avawo vanodzivisa zvokwadi, vanhu vane ndangariro dzakaora, kana pari pazvinhu zvokutenda, vakarasika.
9 But they will not advance very far. For their foolishness will be obvious to all, just like that of those men.
Asi havangasviki kure, nokuti upenzi hwavo huchaonekwa navanhu vose.
10 But as for you, you have followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience,
Asi kunyange zvakadaro, iwe unoziva kudzidzisa kwangu kwose, mararamiro angu, chinangwa changu, kutenda kwangu, mwoyo murefu wangu, norudo, nokutsungirira,
11 persecutions, sufferings, and what happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra. I endured persecutions. Out of them all, the Lord rescued me.
matambudziko, nhamo, nezvinhu zvose zvakaitika kwandiri muAndioki, Ikoniamu nomuRistra, nokutambudzwa kwose kwandakasangana nako. Asi Ishe akandinunura kubva pazviri zvose.
12 All those who want to live in a godly manner in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
Zvirokwazvo munhu wose anoda kurarama upenyu hwoumwari muna Kristu Jesu achatambudzwa,
13 Evil people and impostors will go from bad to worse, leading others and themselves astray.
asi vanhu vakaipa navanonyengera vachanyanyisa kuipa, vachinyengera nokunyengerwa.
14 But as for you, remain in the things that you have learned and have firmly believed. You know from whom you have learned.
Asi iwe, rambira pazvinhu zvawakadzidza uye ukatenda mazviri, nokuti unoziva kuti wakazvidzidza kubva kuna ani,
15 You know that from childhood you have known the sacred writings. These are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
uye kuti kubva pauduku wakaziva Magwaro matsvene, anogona kukupa uchenjeri hunosvitsa kukuponeswa kubudikidza nokutenda muna Kristu Jesu.
16 All scripture has been inspired by God. It is profitable for doctrine, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness.
Rugwaro rwose rwakafemerwa naMwari uye runobatsira pakudzidzisa, kurayira, kutsiura nokurayiridza mukururama,
17 This is so that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
kuti munhu waMwari akwaniswe kwazvo, agadzirirwa mabasa ose akanaka.
