< 2 Timothy 3 >

1 But know this: that in the last days, grievous times will come.
Kae saa asɛm yi. Nna a edi akyiri no, mmere no mu bɛyɛ den.
2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
Nnipa bi bɛyɛ pɛsɛmenkominya, aniberefo, ahohiahiafo ne ahantanfo; wɔbɛyɛ abususɛnkafo, asoɔdenfo wɔ wɔn awofo so; wɔbɛyɛ bonniayɛ na wɔrempɛ nyamesom nso,
3 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,
wɔbɛyɛ atirimɔdenfo, wɔrenhu mmɔbɔ, wɔbɛyɛ nnipa dinsɛefo basabasa ne abufuwfafo, wɔbɛtan wɔn mfɛfo a wɔyɛ nnipa pa no,
4 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
wɔbɛyɛ afatwafo, anuɔdenfo, wɔn a wɔhoran; wɔbɛpɛ anigye sen sɛ wɔdɔ Onyankopɔn.
5 holding a form of godliness but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.
Wɔbɛyɛ aniani asomfo a wɔbɛpo tumi a ɛwɔ ɔsom no mu no. Twe wo ho fi saa nnipa no ho.
6 For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
Wɔn mu bi kɔ afi mu kɔhyɛ mmea a wɔn bɔne ama wodi fɔ na akɔnnɔ ahorow bebree hyɛ wɔn so no so;
7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
saa mmea no yɛ nnipa a wɔpɛ sɛ wosua nneɛma foforo, nanso wonhu nokware no akyi kwan.
8 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.
Sɛnea Yan ne Yambre ne Mose dii asi no, saa ara nso na saa nnipa yi ne nokware di asi. Wɔyɛ nnipa a wɔn adwene asɛe na wonsi hwee wɔ gyidi mu.
9 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.
Wonnya nkɔso biara efisɛ obiara behu wɔn kwasea.
10 But you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness,
Na wo de, woadi me nkyerɛkyerɛ, me suban ne me botae so. Woahu gyidi a mewɔ, me boasetɔ, me dɔ,
11 persecutions, and sufferings—those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. The Lord delivered me out of them all.
taa a wɔtaa me ne mʼamanehunu nyinaa. Wunim nsɛm a ɛtotoo me wɔ Antiokia, Ikoniom ne Listra, ne ɔtaa dennen a mitumi gyinaa ano no. Nanso Awurade yii me fii ne nyinaa mu.
12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Messiah Yeshua will suffer persecution.
Wɔn a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔde onyamesom pa tena ase wɔ Kristo Yesu mu nyinaa no, wɔbɛtaa wɔn,
13 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
nanso nnipa bɔne bɛkɔ so asɛe daa na wɔadaadaa afoforo ne wɔn ankasa wɔn ho.
14 But you remain in the things which you have learnt and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learnt them.
Nanso wo de, kɔ so tena ase nokware mu sɛnea wɔkyerɛɛ wo no, na gye di yiye. Wunim wɔn a wusua fii wɔn nkyɛn,
15 From infancy, you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Messiah Yeshua.
na wokae nso sɛ efi wo mmofraase na woahu Kyerɛwsɛm no a etumi ma wuhu nyansa, na ɛma wunya gyidi wɔ Kristo Yesu mu, na egye wo nkwa.
16 Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,
Kyerɛwsɛm nyinaa fi Onyankopɔn home mu, na eye ma nkyerɛkyerɛ, atɛnyi, ateɛteɛ ne trenee mu yɛn,
17 that each person who belongs to God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Onyankopɔn nipa bɛyɛ nea wɔasiesie no yiye ama nnwuma pa nyinaa.
