2 Timothy 2
1 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
he mama putra, khrīṣṭayīśuto yo'nugrahastasya balena tvaṁ balavān bhava|
2 The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same things to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
aparaṁ bahubhiḥ sākṣibhiḥ pramāṇīkṛtāṁ yāṁ śikṣāṁ śrutavānasi tāṁ viśvāsyeṣu parasmai śikṣādāne nipuṇeṣu ca lokeṣu samarpaya|
3 You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
tvaṁ yīśukhrīṣṭasyottamo yoddheva kleśaṁ sahasva|
4 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
yo yuddhaṁ karoti sa sāṁsārike vyāpāre magno na bhavati kintu svaniyojayitre rocituṁ ceṣṭate|
5 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
aparaṁ yo mallai ryudhyati sa yadi niyamānusāreṇa na yuddhyati tarhi kirīṭaṁ na lapsyate|
6 The farmer who labors must be the first to get a share of the crops.
aparaṁ yaḥ kṛṣīvalaḥ karmma karoti tena prathamena phalabhāginā bhavitavyaṁ|
7 Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.
mayā yaducyate tat tvayā budhyatāṁ yataḥ prabhustubhyaṁ sarvvatra buddhiṁ dāsyati|
8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,
mama susaṁvādasya vacanānusārād dāyūdvaṁśīyaṁ mṛtagaṇamadhyād utthāpitañca yīśuṁ khrīṣṭaṁ smara|
9 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God’s word isn’t chained.
tatsusaṁvādakāraṇād ahaṁ duṣkarmmeva bandhanadaśāparyyantaṁ kleśaṁ bhuñje kintvīśvarasya vākyam abaddhaṁ tiṣṭhati|
10 Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
khrīṣṭena yīśunā yad anantagauravasahitaṁ paritrāṇaṁ jāyate tadabhirucitai rlokairapi yat labhyeta tadarthamahaṁ teṣāṁ nimittaṁ sarvvāṇyetāni sahe| (aiōnios g166)
11 This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
aparam eṣā bhāratī satyā yadi vayaṁ tena sārddhaṁ mriyāmahe tarhi tena sārddhaṁ jīvivyāmaḥ, yadi ca kleśaṁ sahāmahe tarhi tena sārddhaṁ rājatvamapi kariṣyāmahe|
12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
yadi vayaṁ tam anaṅgīkurmmastarhi so 'smānapyanaṅgīkariṣyati|
13 If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”
yadi vayaṁ na viśvāsāmastarhi sa viśvāsyastiṣṭhati yataḥ svam apahnotuṁ na śaknoti|
14 Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of the Lord that they don’t argue about words to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.
tvametāni smārayan te yathā niṣphalaṁ śrotṛṇāṁ bhraṁśajanakaṁ vāgyuddhaṁ na kuryyastathā prabhoḥ samakṣaṁ dṛḍhaṁ vinīyādiśa|
15 Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
aparaṁ tvam īśvarasya sākṣāt svaṁ parīkṣitam anindanīyakarmmakāriṇañca satyamatasya vākyānāṁ sadvibhajane nipuṇañca darśayituṁ yatasva|
16 But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,
kintvapavitrā anarthakakathā dūrīkuru yatastadālambina uttarottaram adharmme varddhiṣyante,
17 and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:
teṣāñca vākyaṁ galitakṣatavat kṣayavarddhako bhaviṣyati teṣāṁ madhye humināyaḥ philītaścetināmānau dvau janau satyamatād bhraṣṭau jātau,
18 men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
mṛtānāṁ punarutthiti rvyatīteti vadantau keṣāñcid viśvāsam utpāṭayataśca|
19 However, God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.”
tathāpīśvarasya bhittimūlam acalaṁ tiṣṭhati tasmiṁśceyaṁ lipi rmudrāṅkitā vidyate| yathā, jānāti parameśastu svakīyān sarvvamānavān| apagacched adharmmācca yaḥ kaścit khrīṣṭanāmakṛt||
20 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor and some for dishonor.
kintu bṛhanniketane kevala suvarṇamayāni raupyamayāṇi ca bhājanāni vidyanta iti tarhi kāṣṭhamayāni mṛṇmayānyapi vidyante teṣāñca kiyanti sammānāya kiyantapamānāya ca bhavanti|
21 If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master’s use, prepared for every good work.
ato yadi kaścid etādṛśebhyaḥ svaṁ pariṣkaroti tarhi sa pāvitaṁ prabhoḥ kāryyayogyaṁ sarvvasatkāryyāyopayuktaṁ sammānārthakañca bhājanaṁ bhaviṣyati|
22 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
yauvanāvasthāyā abhilāṣāstvayā parityajyantāṁ dharmmo viśvāsaḥ prema ye ca śucimanobhiḥ prabhum uddiśya prārthanāṁ kurvvate taiḥ sārddham aikyabhāvaścaiteṣu tvayā yatno vidhīyatāṁ|
23 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
aparaṁ tvam anarthakān ajñānāṁśca praśnān vāgyuddhotpādakān jñātvā dūrīkuru|
24 The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,
yataḥ prabho rdāsena yuddham akarttavyaṁ kintu sarvvān prati śāntena śikṣādānecchukena sahiṣṇunā ca bhavitavyaṁ, vipakṣāśca tena namratvena cetitavyāḥ|
25 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
tathā kṛte yadīśvaraḥ satyamatasya jñānārthaṁ tebhyo manaḥparivarttanarūpaṁ varaṁ dadyāt,
26 and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
tarhi te yena śayatānena nijābhilāṣasādhanāya dhṛtāstasya jālāt cetanāṁ prāpyoddhāraṁ labdhuṁ śakṣyanti|
