Pāvila 2. Vēstule Timotejam 4
1 Es piekodināju Dieva un Tā Kunga Jēzus Kristus priekšā, kas nāks tiesāt dzīvus un mirušus, Viņa atspīdēšanu un Viņa valstību minēdams:
I solemnly charge you – in the sight of God and of Christ Jesus, who will one day judge the living and the dead – I charge you by his appearing and by his kingdom:
2 Pasludini to vārdu, dari to laikā, nelaikā, pārliecini, apdraudi, paskubini iekš visas lēnprātības un mācības.
Proclaim the message, be ready in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, encourage, never failing to instruct with forbearance.
3 Jo nāks laiki, ka tie to veselīgo mācību nepanesīs, bet pēc savām pašu iekārošanām sev mācītājus uzkraus, kā tiem ausis niez,
For a time will come when people will not tolerate sound teaching. They will follow their own wishes, and, in their itching for novelty, procure themselves a crowd of teachers.
4 Un novērsīs ausis no patiesības un griezīsies pie pasakām.
They will turn a deaf ear to the truth, and give their attention to legends instead.
5 Bet tu esi nomodā iekš visām lietām, panes ļaunumu, dari evaņģelista darbu, izdari savu amatu pilnīgi.
But you, Timothy, must always be temperate. Face hardships; do the work of a missionary; discharge all the duties of your office.
6 Jo es jau topu upurēts, un manas atraisīšanas laiks ir tuvu klāt.
As for me, my life blood is already being poured out; the time of my departure is close at hand.
7 To labo cīnīšanos esmu cīnījies, to tecēšanu esmu pabeidzis, ticību esmu turējis.
I have run the great race; I have finished the course; I have kept the faith.
8 Joprojām man ir nolikts tas taisnības kronis, ko man Tas Kungs, Tas taisnais Soģis, dos viņā dienā, un nevien man, bet arī visiem, kas Viņa atspīdēšanu ir mīlējuši.
And now the crown of righteousness awaits me, which the Lord, the just judge, will give me on that day – and not only to me, but to all who have loved his appearing.
9 Steidzies ātri nākt pie manis;
Do your utmost to come to me soon,
10 Jo Demas mani atstājis, mīlēdams šo pasauli, un ir nogājis uz Tesaloniku, Krescents uz Galatiju, Titus uz Dalmatiju. (aiōn g165)
for Demas, in his love for the world, has deserted me. He has gone to Thessalonica, Crescens to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)
11 Lūkas vien ir pie manis; ņem Marku un atved to līdz, jo tas man ļoti derīgs pie kalpošanas.
There is no one but Luke with me. Pick up Mark on your way, and bring him with you, for he is useful to me in my work.
12 Tihiku es esmu sūtījis uz Efesu.
I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
13 To mēteli, ko es Troadā pie Karpa esmu atstājis, atnes nākdams līdz un tās grāmatas, visvairāk tās rakstāmās ādas.
Bring with you, when you come, the cloak which I left at Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments.
14 Aleksandrs, tas kalējs, man daudz ļauna ir darījis; Tas Kungs tam atmaksās pēc viņa darbiem.
Alexander, the coppersmith, showed much ill feeling towards me. The Lord will give him what his actions deserve.
15 No tā tu arīdzan sargies, jo tas mūsu vārdiem pārlieku pretī stāvējis.
You must also be on your guard against him, for he is strongly opposed to our teaching.
16 Pie manas pirmās aizbildināšanās neviens pie manis nav bijis, bet visi ir atstājušies no manis, (lai tas tiem netop pielīdzināts).
At my first trial no one stood by me. They all deserted me. May it never be counted against them!
17 Bet Tas Kungs man ir klāt bijis un mani stiprinājis, ka caur mani tā mācība pilnīgi taptu zināma un visi pagāni to dzirdētu; un es esmu izrauts no lauvas rīkles.
But the Lord came to my help and strengthened me, in order that, through me, the proclamation should be made so widely that all the Gentiles should hear it; and I was rescued out of the lion’s mouth.
18 Un Tas Kungs mani izraus no ikviena ļauna darba un izglābs uz Savu Debesu valstību; Tam ir gods mūžīgi mūžam! Āmen. (aiōn g165)
The Lord will rescue me from all evil, and bring me safe into his Heavenly kingdom. All glory to him for ever and ever! Amen. (aiōn g165)
19 Sveicini Prisku un Aķilu un Onesifora namu.
Give my greeting to Prisca and Aquila, and to the household of Onesiphorus.
20 Erasts ir palicis Korintū, un Trofimu es esmu atstājis neveselu Miletū.
Erastus remained at Corinth, and I left Thophimus ill at Miletus.
21 Steidzies nākt priekš ziemas. Tevi sveicina Eubuls un Pudents un Linus un Klaudija un visi brāļi.
Do your utmost to come before winter. Eubulus, Pudens, Linus and Claudia send you their greetings, and so do the rest of the Lord’s followers.
22 Lai Tas Kungs Jēzus Kristus ir ar tavu garu. Žēlastība lai ir ar jums! Āmen.
May the Lord be with your soul. God bless you all.
