2 Timothy 4

1 Pathen neh Khrih Jesuh hmaiah kang uen. A phoenah, a ram neh aka duek aka hing laitloek ham cai.

I charge [thee] in the sight of God, and of Christ Jesus, who shall judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:

2 Ol te hoe pah. Na bihoep tamto akhaw pai thil laeh. Thinsennah thuituennah cungkuem neh toeltham lamtah, sim lamtah, hloep laeh.

preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

3 Aka cuem thuituennah neh a yaknaem uh pawt vaengah ni a tue a pai eh. Tedae a hoehhamnah bangla amamih kah hnavue aka thak saya rhoek te a kuk uh ni.

For the time will come when they will not endure the sound doctrine; but, having itching ears, will heap to themselves teachers after their own lusts;

4 Te phoeiah oltak lamkah a hna te a khong uh vetih cil taengla mael uh ni.

and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside unto fables.

5 Tedae nang tah a cungkuem ah cue uh lamtah olthangthen bibi te patang doeah saii. Na bibi te khaw ming lah.

But be thou sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry.

6 Ka phum uh coeng tih ka voeinah tue khaw ha pai coeng.

For I am already being offered, and the time of my departure is come.

7 Aka then thingthuelnah te ka thingthuel coeng. Hma te ka khah coeng. Tangnah te ka kuem coeng.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith:

8 Tahae lamkah kai ham duengnah rhuisam te a khueh coeng. Te te aka dueng laitloekkung boeipa loh tekah khohnin ah kai n'thuung ni. Te phoeiah kai bueng pawt tih a phoenah aka lungnah rhoek boeih te khaw a paek ni.

henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give to me at that day; and not to me only, but also to all them that have loved his appearing.

9 Kai taengah koe aka pawk la na haam mako.

Give diligence to come shortly unto me:

10 Demas loh kai n'phap tih ta kumhal kah he a lungnah. Te dongah Thessalonika la, Kresens te Galati la, Titu te Dalmatia la vik cet. (aiōn g165)

for Demas forsook me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)

11 Ka taengah Luka bueng ni aka om. Marku te lo lamtah namah neh ha puei uh. Kai ham tah bibi dongah congpang koila om.

Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee; for he is useful to me for ministering.

12 Tedae Tukhiko te Ephisa la ka tueih coeng.

But Tychicus I sent to Ephesus.

13 Na lo vaengah Troas kah Karpuh taengah himbai neh cayol olpuei la maehpho ka khueh te hang khuen.

The cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus, bring when thou comest, and the books, especially the parchments.

14 Rhohum aka bi Alexander loh kai soah thae muep a tueng sak. Boeipa loh anih te amah khoboe bangla a thuung bitni.

Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord will render to him according to his works:

15 Mamih kah olka te bahoeng a kamkaih dongah nang khaw anih te ngaithuen.

of whom do thou also beware; for he greatly withstood our words.

16 Kai kah olthungnah lamhma vaengah kai taengla ha pawk uh pawh. Hlang boeih loh kai n'phap cakhaw amih te ngaiyaknah boel sih.

At my first defence no one took my part, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to their account.

17 Tedae Boeipa loh kai m'pai puei tih kai n'thaphoh. Te daengah ni kai lamkah olhoe te a soep sak vetih namtom loh boeih a yaak eh. Te tlam ni sathueng ka lamloh n'hlawt.

But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me; that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

18 Boeipa loh khoboe thae boeih lamkah kai n'hlawt vetih vaan kah amah ram khuila n'daem sak ni. Amah te kumhal ah kumhal duela thangpomnah om saeh. Amen. (aiōn g165)

The Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will save me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

19 Priska neh Aquila, Onesiphor imkhuikho te toidal ne.

Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus.

20 Erastu te Kawrin ah om tih Trophimu te a tloh dongah Miletu ah ka khueh.

Erastus remained at Corinth: but Trophimus I left at Miletus sick.

21 Sikca hlanah pawk hamla na haam mako. Ubuluh, Puden, Linu, Kalaudia neh manuca rhoek boeih loh nang kutn'tuuk uh.

Give diligence to come before winter. Eubulus saluteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.

22 Boeipa loh na mueihla te om puei saeh. Lungvatnah tah nangmih taengah om saeh.

The Lord be with thy spirit. Grace be with you.
