2 Timotawus 4
1 Ndin ni nliru ulele nin likara nbun Kutelle nin Kristi Yesu, ule na aba gucu anan lai nin nanan kul, bara udak me nin kipin tigome:
I ADJURE thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Su uwazi nliru, so nin shiri, sa kubi di sa na kubi duku ba kpada, gbara, taa kubun, vat nin kanyiri nsuwe nin teru kibinai nanya ndursuzu.
preach the word, be urgent, in season, out of season; reprove, enjoin, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
3 Bara kubi din cinu, na anit ma teru nibinai nin ndursuzu ucine ba nani iba na pitiru atimine anan dursuzu kiti alenge na iba shogulu nu nanya nlanzu mine.
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own inclinations will set up a herd of teachers for themselves, having the itch of hearing;
4 Iba kpiliu ulanzu mine kiti nlanzu kidegen, iba na kpillu kusari nlanzu nabin ghari.
and will turn away their ears from the truth, and listen unto fables.
5 Amma fe nonko kibinai nanya nimon vat. Tere kibinai nanya nniu; su katwa nnan bellun nliru Kutelle; kullo katwa fe.
But watch thou in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fully discharge thy ministry.
6 Bara meng ina mallu ugutu niyi. Kubi in nyiu nighe nmal dak.
For I am now ready to be sacrificed, and the time of my dissolution approaches.
7 Nnasu likum licine. Nna min uyinnu sa uyenu nighe.
I have struggled hard in the honourable contest, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith:
8 Ina malu uciuyi litapa katwa kacine, longo na Cikilari, unan wucu ucine, ama niyi liyiri lole. Ana meng usanin ba, umunu alenge na ima yitu nin su in saku ndak me.
henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: yet not to me only, but also to all who have loved his appearing.
9 Yita nin kanyeri udak kiti nighe mas.
Hasten to come to me shortly:
10 Bara Dimas na sunni, dinin su nlenge uyie amini na nya udu utasalanika. Kariskis na do ugalatiya, Titus uni nado udalmatiya. (aiōn g165)
for Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is gone unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia; Titus to Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)
11 Luka ri cas di nimi. Yira Markus ku udak ligowe ninghe, bara adinin ampani kiti nighe nanya katwa we.
Luke alone is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee; for he is very useful to me in the ministry.
12 Nna tuu Tikikus ku in Afisas.
But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
13 Ugudum nighe nann nna sun Ntaruwas nacara karbus, mino unin asa uba dak, umunu affa ninyerte, Massaman affe vat.
The cloke which I left behind me at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest bring, and the books, especially the parchments.
14 Iskandari unan kitel nikoro iboo nasu likara linanzang gbardang liti nighe Cikilari ba kurtun ghe nafo na ame nasuzu.
Alexander the brazier did me many ill offices: the Lord repay him according to his works:
15 Fe wang yenje Ucinfe ninghe, bara adi nivira nin liru bite.
against whom be thou also on thy guard, for he hath greatly resisted our words.
16 Nin kusu liti nighe un cizinue, na umong wa yisin nin mie ba. Nani, vat nanite wa su ni. Na Kutelle nwa batiza ileli imone nati mine ba.
At my first apology no man stood by me, but all forsook me: (may it not be imputed to them!)
17 Amma Cikilare wa yisin likot nighe atayi likara, bara, nnuzu kiti nighe, bara ubellu nlirue nan se ukullu vat, nwurumi nan se ulanzu. Nwase utucu nnuu nzakki.
but the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that by me the preaching might be fully discharged, and that all the Gentiles might hear; and I was snatched out of the lion’s mouth.
18 Cikilari ma tucui nanyan ko lome likara linanzang, ama nin ciu yi bara kipin tigo me kitene kani. Kiti mere ngongong so ku udu sa ligang. Uso nani. (aiōn g165)
And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and preserve me for his celestial kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
19 Lissoi Briskila ku nin Akila, nin na nan kilarin anisifirus.
Salute Priscilla and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus.
20 Erasitus wa lawa Nkorontus, Amma nwasun Tirifehimus ku Nmilatuss nin nkonu.
Erastus hath abode at Corinth: but Trophimus I left behind me at Miletum sick.
21 Yita nin lissufi, pudens wang nin linus, claudia nin linuana vat din lissufi.
Hasten to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.
22 Na cikilari so nin Nruhu fe. Na ubolu Kutelle so nin fi.
The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. The second epistle to Timothy, appointed the first bishop of the Ephesian church, was written from Rome, when the second time Paul stood before the Caesar Nero.
