2 Timothy 3

1 Tedae he he ming lah. Khohnin hnukkhueng ah te tah a rhai tue pai ni.

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 Hlang he pahuul, naivoei, hlangoek, buhueng aka pom, aka soehsal, manu napa taengah aka lokhak, aka noihhai, aka tanghnong,

For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 kotalh, thunkha thunhling, rhaithae, aka khoeihveet, mangkhak, aka muen,

Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 hlangyoi, marhu marhat, aka koevoei, Pathen lungnah lakah hawlthak aka coeng bet,

Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Hingcimnah lungsak a khueh dae te hingcimnah kah thaomnah aka hnawt la om uh ni. Te vaengah hekah rhoek he nong tak.

Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

6 Amih lakli kah aka om rhoek te im la yuel uh tih hoehhamnah cungkuem loh a payawk uh dongah tholh neh a vueinan huta thae te a sol uh.

For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

7 A cang uh vawptawp dae oltak kah mingnah te pha thai uh pawh.

Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

8 Te dongah Jenne neh Jambres loh Moses a kamkaih rhoi bangla he rhoek long kaw oltak te a kamkaih uh van. A lungbuei poci tih tangnah dongah aka lolhmaih hlang rhoek ni.

Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

9 Tedae taoe koep cungphoek mahpawh. Te rhoi kah a om van bangla amih kah a anglat khaw a cungkuem taengah phaeng phoe bitni.

But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

10 Tedae nang tah kai kah thuituennah, khosak rhamsak, mangtaengnah, tangnah, thinsennah, lungnah, uehnah, patangnah, hnaemtaeknah te na thuep.

But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,

11 Te te kai hamla Antiok ah, Ikonium ah, Lustra ah thoeng. Hnaemtaeknah te ka ueh vaengah ka cungkuem ah Boeipa loh n'hlawt.

Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.

12 Te dongah Khrih Jesuh ah hingcim la hing aka ngaih boeih te tah a hnaemtaek uh ni.

Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

13 Tedae bothae hlang neh laithae rhoek tah hlang a rhaithi uh doeah amamih rhaithi la om tih a thae la cungpoeh uh ni.

But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

14 Nang tah na cang tih na ngaitang dongah te naeh lah. U taengkah na cang khaw ming lah.

But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 A cim cabu he cahni lamloh na ming coeng te ta. Te long te Khrih Jesuh ah tangnah rhangneh khangnah dongla nang n'cuek sak thai.

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16 Cacim boeih he Pathen kah hil la om tih thuituennah ham, toelthamnah ham, tlaihvongnah ham, duengnah dongah hlinsainah ham hoeikhang.

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

17 Te nen ni Pathen kah hlang loh hlangsoep la a om vetih bibi then te boeih a cuum sak eh.

That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
