2 Timothy 4

1 I command you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom:

U tienu nintuali nni yeni jesu kilisi nintuali nni ke ti ten'a ya ñɔbonli ne bani yaaba baa bua yaaba fuo yeni yaaba n kpe kuli bi kpiagidi kani.

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

ya wangi u tienu maama ki ya se ki paa, uyogu ya pundi yeni laa pundi kuli. yie yaala ki ŋani, ki baagi bi niba yeni itundi yeni li padingili.

3 For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts,

Kelima u yogu cuoni ke bi niba kan kuni i mɔmɔani tundi, bi ba teni bi yula u faagu bankaaba i. Yaaba baa bnagi ba bani bi bà n bua yaala. Li bontienikaana nni, ke bi bua ki ya cengi yaali baa mangidi bani bi bà ya tuba nni.

4 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn away to fables.

Bi ba ñaani bi tuba k daa cengi mɔmɔani maama i, ki ŋa yaali n jɔgni.

5 But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry.

Ama fini u tienu nulo ŋan daa tie yua sɔngi li bonli kuli nni, ki pa fala yognu ki sɔni u tienu maama. Hali lan pundi maama.

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

Mini wan cabi im yuli lan ya ye mani n gednma yognu pundi

7 I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. I have kept the faith.

N kɔni i mɔmɔani kɔnli; ngbeni n cenli; n kubi n dandanli.

8 From now on, the crown of righteousness is stored up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

U tienu maam feliga biili po, ya badi fogiliga ke yonmdaano yua tiegi n ba teni n yaaga ti buudi daali. Li ka tie mini baba ka, ama li baa tie yaaba gbadi o buama maama kuli.

9 Be diligent to come to me soon,

Tieni ania fini a bà ki tuodi ki cua n kani.

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

Kelima Demasi ŋaani duliña buama po i. O gedi Tesaloniki. Kresansi gedi galati Titi mo gedi dalimati. (aiōn g165)

11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service.

Mini ye luk baba n ye. Ta Maarki yin yegi cua, kelima o baa pia buam a tuona po.

12 But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.

N sɔni Ticiki hali Efesi.

13 Bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus when you come—and the books, especially the parchments.

Li liadili yua ke n ŋA Troasi Karpisi deni a cuoni n kani ŋan ya kubi. Yeni a tila, a tilikpela.

14 Alexander the coppersmith did much evil to me. The Lord will repay him according to his deeds.

O maano Alesanda den mi biadima hali ke pendi buama, o yonmdaano ba ŋmian'o o tuona.

15 Beware of him, for he greatly opposed our words.

ŋan cuo a bà yen'o, kelima o tie yibali ti maama po.

16 At my first defense, no one came to help me, but all left me. May it not be held against them.

N cincin fala nni o bà kuli den k sedi taani nni bi kuli den sani ki ŋaa n i. ban daa ta ki jalig'i.

17 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. So I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

Ama n yomdaano gaa n, ki go kpaagi n ke min fidi ki ya wangi o labaŋanmo ki fidi ke bi nilanba n gbadi. Yeni k o den gaani o yangbanlo ñɔbu nni

18 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom. To him be the glory for the ages (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165). Amen.

N yomdaano ba tugi nni ki ya ñandi n ti tuobiadi kuli nni, ki go gaa n i o kpiagidi deni tanpoli naani n ŋani wan ya die ti kpiagidi yognu n tu yognu amina. (aiōn g165)

19 Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus.

ŋan fuondi n po Pisika yeni Akilasi, yeni Onesifode deni yaaba kuli n po.

20 Erastus remained at Corinth, but I left Trophimus at Miletus sick.

Erasti sedi Kolinta, k ŋa Tolifima yua yia Miiliti

21 Be diligent to come before winter. Eubulus salutes you, as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers.

Mɔndi ki cua k u fawaagu daa pundi. Ebulisi, Pudensi, Linis, Klodia yeni i naataani kuli fuondi ŋa.

22 The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

T yomdaano Jesu kilisi fuoŋanma n ya ye yen'a k u Tienu ŋanbidi n ya ye yeni i kuli.
