< 2 Timotawus 3 >

1 Ama yinno ilenge imone: kubi nimalin ayiri nijasi mayitu.
Be aware that there will be troubled times in the last days.
2 Bara anit yitu anan suu natimine, anan suu nikurfun, anan fonigiri, ufiu nati, anan liru Kutelle nanzang, anan salin lanzun liru narika na ina maru nani, na ima yitu nin godo ba, nin dirun lau.
People will love themselves and love money. They will be boastful, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, and without God in their lives.
3 Ima yitu sa unlazung kunekune, anan salin shauzu nin nalapi, anan nanzu tissa, na idinnin minu nati ulau ba, anan nun, na idinin suu nimon icine ba.
Heartless and unforgiving, they'll commit slander and have no self-control. Brutal people who hate what's good,
4 Ima yitu anan lessu nati, anan gbas, anan lanzu nin nati, anan suun lanzun mang ubun nin suu Kutelle.
they will betray others and be totally thoughtless. They are absurdly full of themselves, living so much for pleasure that they don't care about loving God.
5 Ima yitu nin kulap Kutelle, ama ima nari likara nnin. Kpila usun anit alele.
They may give an outward impression of being religious, but they don't actually believe it works. Stay away from these people!
6 Bara among mine anitari na asa ipira nanya kilari iwunno awani alala. Alengene awaniari ale na ikulun nanya nalapi inin din wunu nani nin vat nimon nsuu nibinayi mine.
They're the kind of people that slip into homes and take control of vulnerable women who are burdened down by the guilt of sin and distracted by all kinds of desires.
7 Ale awane kolo liri idin pizurun yinnu, ama na isa yinno udak kitin yinnu kidegene ba.
These women are always trying to learn but they're never able to understand the truth!
8 Libau lirume na Jannis ni Jambiris wa yissin nivira ni Musa. Libau lole tutung ale anan dursuzu kinu kane yissin nivira nin kidegen. Inung anitari nan imal kuzu nibinai, na iyinna ninghinu ba kusarin yinnu sa uyenu.
Just like Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, these teachers also oppose the truth. They are people with corrupted minds whose supposed trust in God is a lie.
9 Ama na iba du piit ba. Bara tilalan mine mayitu kanang kiti kogha, nafo una naleli anite.
But they won't get far. Their stupidity will be obvious to everyone, just like that of Jannes and Jambres.
10 Ama kitife, una dortu udusuzu ning, adu, ukpilizu, uyinnu sa uyenu, uteru nayi ning, usuu, lissosin ncaa,
But you know all about my teaching and behavior, and my aim in life. You know my trust in God and my love. You know what I've had to endure—
11 utizin niu ning, uniu, nin nimon ile na iwa sei in Antiyok, in Ikoniyom, a in Listra. Nna teru kibinayi nin tizun niu. Nanya nani vat, Cikilare wa nutuni ucine.
how I've been persecuted and what I've suffered. You know what happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra—the troubles I had and how the Lord rescued me from all of them.
12 Vat nalenge na idi ninsuu iso lissosin Kutelle ima tizu nani iniu.
Of course it's true that everyone who wants to live a life devoted to God in Christ Jesus will experience persecution,
13 Anitin magunta nin nanan tizu nafo among ina rusuzo anit ba su kang. Ima wultunu among. Inung wang ina wultung naneri.
while wicked people and frauds will do well, going from bad to worse, deceiving others and deceiving themselves too.
14 Ama bari fe, soo nanya nimong ilenge na una massu nin nile na umal yinnu mung. Uyiru kitin lenge na una massu ku.
But you must hold onto the things you've learned and are convinced are true. You know who taught you.
15 Uyiru nwo tun tinono una yinnin iyert ilau. Ilengene wasa itafi jijin bara utucufe nanyan yinnu sa uyenu in Kristi Yesu.
From your childhood you've known the holy Scriptures which can give you understanding for salvation by trusting in Christ Jesus.
16 Vat ulirun tucu Kutelleri na kyele unin. Ucau bara ukye libau lissosin, bara uyinnu nkpiliu, bara kyelu ntanu, nin dursuzu lidu lilau.
All Scripture inspired by God is useful for teaching, for confronting what is wrong, for setting us straight, and for telling us what is right.
17 Udi nene bara unit Kutelle nan yita ning yirru, uceu nimon katwa kacine kibanayi.
This is how God provides a thorough preparation for those who work for him to accomplish all that's good.
