2 Timothy 2
1 You therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
Te dongah ka ca nang Khrih Jesuh ah lungvatnah neh thaphoh uh.
2 And the things that you have heard me say among many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be qualified to teach others as well.
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.
3 Join me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
Jesuh Khrih kah rhalkap then la patang puei.
4 A soldier refrains from entangling himself in civilian affairs, in order to please the one who enlisted him.
Aka vathoh loh a khosaknah dongkah khosak rhamok neh a tingtong pawt daengah ni caemthoh te kolo la a om eh.
5 Likewise, a competitor does not receive the crown unless he competes according to the rules.
Khat khat long khaw a loehlang dae a longim pawt la a loehlang atah rhuisam a khuem moenih.
6 The hardworking farmer should be the first to partake of the crops.
Thakthae lotawn te lamhma la a thaih a dang ham a kuek.
7 Consider what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all things.
Ka thui te yakming lah. A cungkuem dongah yakmingnah te Boeipa loh nang ham m'paek bitni.
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David, as proclaimed by my gospel,
Kaimih kah olthangthen vanbangla David tiingan lamkah neh duek lamkah aka thoo Jesuh Khrih te poek.
9 for which I suffer to the extent of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God cannot be chained!
Te ham te laihmuh bangla thongtlak hilah ka patang dae Pathen kah Olka tah pinyen hlan.
10 For this reason I endure all things for the sake of the elect, so that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
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)
11 This is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
He ol he a uepom ta. N'duek atah n'hing puei van ni ta.
12 if we endure, we will also reign with Him; if we deny Him, He will also deny us;
N'ueh uh atah m'manghai uh van ni ta. N'hnawt uh van atah amah loh mamih he n'hnawt van ni.
13 if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself.
Amah a hnawt thai pawt dongah n'hnalval uh cakhaw anih tah uepom la naeh ngawn ta.
14 Remind the believers of these things, charging them before God to avoid quarreling over words, which succeeds only in leading the listeners to ruin.
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.
15 Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth.
Oltak olka te aka paekhlae, aka birhih pawh bibikung tih namah te Pathen taengah ueppang koi la pai hamla haam lah.
16 But avoid irreverent, empty chatter, which will only lead to more ungodliness,
Tedae a rhonging kah olhong te rhael, hlangrhong khuila muep cungphoek uh ve.
17 and the talk of such men will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus,
Amih kah olka te khaw hmapuek manrhaicak bangla cet ni. Te khuiah Hymenaeus neh Philetu om rhoi.
18 who have deviated from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already occurred, and they undermine the faith of some.
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.
19 Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord must turn away from iniquity.”
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.
20 A large house contains not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. Some indeed are for honorable use, but others are for common use.
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.
21 So if anyone cleanses himself of what is unfit, he will be a vessel for honor: sanctified, useful to the Master, and prepared for every good work.
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.
22 Flee from youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, together with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
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.
23 But reject foolish and ignorant speculation, for you know that it breeds quarreling.
Tedae aka ang neh angvawk kah olpungnah te hnawt lamtah rhalthohnah ni a. saii uh tila ming lah.
24 And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and forbearing.
Te dongah Boeipa kah sal loh hnueih ham a kuek moenih. Tedae a cungkuem ham kodo la khala neh ueh ham a kuek.
25 He must gently reprove those who oppose him, in the hope that God may grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth.
Thimkalh rhoek muelhtuetnah neh toel mai. Amih te Pathen loh oltak mingnah dongla yutnah khaw a paek khaming.
26 Then they will come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, who has taken them captive to his will.
Te daengah ni amah loh amah kongaih la a tuuk khaw rhaithae kah thaang lamloh a sae uh eh.
