2 Timothy 2
1 Te dongah ka ca nang Khrih Jesuh ah lungvatnah neh thaphoh uh.
Thou therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that 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 thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Jesuh Khrih kah rhalkap then la patang puei.
Suffer hardship with [me], as a good soldier 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.
No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of [this] life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
5 Khat khat long khaw a loehlang dae a longim pawt la a loehlang atah rhuisam a khuem moenih.
And if also a man contend in the games, he is not crowned, except he have contended lawfully.
6 Thakthae lotawn te lamhma la a thaih a dang ham a kuek.
The husbandman that laboureth must be the first to partake of the fruits.
7 Ka thui te yakming lah. A cungkuem dongah yakmingnah te Boeipa loh nang ham m'paek bitni.
Consider what I say; for the Lord shall give thee understanding in all things.
8 Kaimih kah olthangthen vanbangla David tiingan lamkah neh duek lamkah aka thoo Jesuh Khrih te poek.
Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel:
9 Te ham te laihmuh bangla thongtlak hilah ka patang dae Pathen kah Olka tah pinyen hlan.
wherein I suffer hardship unto bonds, as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound.
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)
Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 He ol he a uepom ta. N'duek atah n'hing puei van ni ta.
Faithful is the saying: For if we died with him, we shall also live 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 endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us:
13 Amah a hnawt thai pawt dongah n'hnalval uh cakhaw anih tah uepom la naeh ngawn ta.
if we are faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny 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.
Of these things put them in remembrance, charging [them] in the sight of the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of them that hear.
15 Oltak olka te aka paekhlae, aka birhih pawh bibikung tih namah te Pathen taengah ueppang koi la pai hamla haam lah.
Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth.
16 Tedae a rhonging kah olhong te rhael, hlangrhong khuila muep cungphoek uh ve.
But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness,
17 Amih kah olka te khaw hmapuek manrhaicak bangla cet ni. Te khuiah Hymenaeus neh Philetu om rhoi.
and their word will eat as doth a gangrene: of whom is 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 who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already, and overthrow 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.
Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.
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 of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honour, and some unto dishonour.
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 therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, meet for the master’s use, prepared unto 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 flee youthful lusts, and follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 Tedae aka ang neh angvawk kah olpungnah te hnawt lamtah rhalthohnah ni a. saii uh tila ming lah.
But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strifes.
24 Te dongah Boeipa kah sal loh hnueih ham a kuek moenih. Tedae a cungkuem ham kodo la khala neh ueh ham a kuek.
And the Lord’s servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing,
25 Thimkalh rhoek muelhtuetnah neh toel mai. Amih te Pathen loh oltak mingnah dongla yutnah khaw a paek khaming.
in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth,
26 Te daengah ni amah loh amah kongaih la a tuuk khaw rhaithae kah thaang lamloh a sae uh eh.
and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by the Lord’s servant unto the will of God.
