2 Timothy 2
1 Te dongah ka ca nang Khrih Jesuh ah lungvatnah neh thaphoh uh.
So then, my child, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus.
2 Te khaw kai lamloh laipai a yet neh na yaak coeng. He he uepom hlang taengah pae ne. Amih tah a tloe thuituen ham khaw khangmai la om bitni.
And the things which I have said to you before a number of witnesses, give to those of the faith, so that they may be teachers of others.
3 Jesuh Khrih kah rhalkap then la patang puei.
Be ready to do without the comforts of life, as one of the army of Christ Jesus.
4 Aka vathoh loh a khosaknah dongkah khosak rhamok neh a tingtong pawt daengah ni caemthoh te kolo la a om eh.
A fighting man, when he is with the army, keeps himself free from the business of this life so that he may be pleasing to him who has taken him into his army.
5 Khat khat long khaw a loehlang dae a longim pawt la a loehlang atah rhuisam a khuem moenih.
And if a man takes part in a competition he does not get the crown if he has not kept the rules.
6 Thakthae lotawn te lamhma la a thaih a dang ham a kuek.
It is right for the worker in the fields to be the first to take of the fruit.
7 Ka thui te yakming lah. A cungkuem dongah yakmingnah te Boeipa loh nang ham m'paek bitni.
Give thought to what I say; for the Lord will give you wisdom in all things.
8 Kaimih kah olthangthen vanbangla David tiingan lamkah neh duek lamkah aka thoo Jesuh Khrih te poek.
Keep in mind Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, who came back from the dead, as my good news gives witness:
9 Te ham te laihmuh bangla thongtlak hilah ka patang dae Pathen kah Olka tah pinyen hlan.
In which I put up with the hardest conditions, even prison chains, like one who has done a crime; but the word of God is not in chains.
10 Te dongah a coelh rhoek ham te boeih ka ueh. Te daengah ni khangnah te amih loh dungyan thangpomnah neh Khrih Jesuh ah a dang uh van eh. (aiōnios g166)
But I undergo all things for the saints, so that they may have salvation in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 He ol he a uepom ta. N'duek atah n'hing puei van ni ta.
This is a true saying: If we undergo death with him, then will we be living with him:
12 N'ueh uh atah m'manghai uh van ni ta. N'hnawt uh van atah amah loh mamih he n'hnawt van ni.
If we go on to the end, then we will be ruling with him: if we say we have no knowledge of him, then he will say he has no knowledge of us:
13 Amah a hnawt thai pawt dongah n'hnalval uh cakhaw anih tah uepom la naeh ngawn ta.
If we are without faith, still he keeps faith, for he will never be untrue to himself.
14 He rhoek he thoelh pah. Pathen hmaiah naenam pawt ham kang uen. A hoeikhang ham pawt he aka ya rhoek kah pocinah ham ni te.
Put these things before them, giving them orders in the name of the Lord to keep themselves from fighting about words, which is of no profit, only causing error in their hearers.
15 Oltak olka te aka paekhlae, aka birhih pawh bibikung tih namah te Pathen taengah ueppang koi la pai hamla haam lah.
Let it be your care to get the approval of God, as a workman who has no cause for shame, giving the true word in the right way.
16 Tedae a rhonging kah olhong te rhael, hlangrhong khuila muep cungphoek uh ve.
But take no part in wrong and foolish talk, for those who do so will go farther into evil,
17 Amih kah olka te khaw hmapuek manrhaicak bangla cet ni. Te khuiah Hymenaeus neh Philetu om rhoi.
And their words will be like poisoned wounds in the flesh: such are Hymenaeus and Philetus;
18 Amih rhoi loh oltak te a hlihloeh sak rhoi tih thohkoepnah om coeng a ti rhoi. Te vaengah hlangvang kah tangnah te a palet rhoi.
Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some.
19 Tedae Pathen kah khoengim tah khangmai la pai. Hekah kutnoek aka om dongah amah kah la aka om rhoek te Boeipa loh aming. Te dongah Boeipa ming aka phoei boeih long tah boethae lamloh nong saeh.
But God's strong base is unchanging, having this sign, The Lord has knowledge of those who are his: and, Let everyone by whom the name of the Lord is named be turned away from evil.
20 Tahae kah im puei ah sui neh caben hnopai bueng pawt tih thing neh diklai umam khaw om. Te dongah a ngen tah thangpomnah ham om dae a tloe te tah yahpohnah la om.
Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but others of wood and earth, and some which are honoured and some without honour.
21 Te dongah khat khat loh he lamkah amah a cilpoe atah boeikung kah a congpang koi neh bibi then boeih ham a hmoel tih a ciim thangpomnah hnopai la om ni.
If a man makes himself clean from these, he will be a vessel for honour, made holy, ready for the master's use, ready for every good work.
22 Te dongah cadongcaloe kah hoehhamnah te rhaelrham tak lamtah duengnah, tangnah, lungnah, thinko a caih la Boeipa aka phoei rhoek neh rhoeprhoinah te huul lah.
But keep yourself from those desires of the flesh which are strong when the body is young, and go after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those whose prayers go up to the Lord from a clean heart.
23 Tedae aka ang neh angvawk kah olpungnah te hnawt lamtah rhalthohnah ni a saii uh tila ming lah.
And put away foolish and uncontrolled questionings, seeing that they are a cause of trouble.
24 Te dongah Boeipa kah sal loh hnueih ham a kuek moenih. Tedae a cungkuem ham kodo la khala neh ueh ham a kuek.
For it is not right for the Lord's servant to make trouble, but he is to be gentle to all, ready in teaching, putting up with wrong,
25 Thimkalh rhoek muelhtuetnah neh toel mai. Amih te Pathen loh oltak mingnah dongla yutnah khaw a paek khaming.
Gently guiding those who go against the teaching; if by chance God may give them a change of heart and true knowledge,
26 Te daengah ni amah loh amah kongaih la a tuuk khaw rhaithae kah thaang lamloh a sae uh eh.
And so they may get themselves free from the net of the Evil One, being made the prisoners of the Lord's servant, for the purpose of God.
