2 Timothy 3
1 Tedae he he ming lah. Khohnin hnukkhueng ah te tah a rhai tue pai ni.
This, also, know, that in latter days perilous times will come.
2 Hlang he pahuul, naivoei, hlangoek, buhueng aka pom, aka soehsal, manu napa taengah aka lokhak, aka noihhai, aka tanghnong,
For men will be self-lovers, money-lovers, boasters, proud, defamers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
3 kotalh, thunkha thunhling, rhaithae, aka khoeihveet, mangkhak, aka muen,
without natural affection, bargain-breakers, slanderers, incontinent, fierce, haters of good men,
4 hlangyoi, marhu marhat, aka koevoei, Pathen lungnah lakah hawlthak aka coeng bet,
headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure 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 of it. Now, from these, 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.
Of these, indeed, are they who go into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts;
7 A cang uh vawptawp dae oltak kah mingnah te pha thai uh pawh.
always learning, but 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, in the manner that Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men wholly corrupted in mind, reprobate as to 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.
However, they shall not proceed further; for their foolishness shall be very plain to all, as theirs also was.
10 Tedae nang tah kai kah thuituennah, khosak rhamsak, mangtaengnah, tangnah, thinsennah, lungnah, uehnah, patangnah, hnaemtaeknah te na thuep.
But you have fully known my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, meekness, love, 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, sufferings, such as befell me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra: such 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.
And all, indeed, who will live godly in Christ Jesus, shall be persecuted:
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 wicked men and impostors will grow 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.
In the meantime, do you continue in the things which you have learned, and with which you have been intrusted, knowing from whom you have 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, you have known the sacred scriptures, which are able to make you wise to salvation, by the 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, given by divine inspiration, is indeed profitable for doctrine, for conviction, 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--completely fitted for every good work.
