2 Timothy 2
1 You therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
Ka ca, nang teh Khrih Jisuh thung kaawm e lungmanae lahoi kacaklah awm loe.
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.
Kapanuekkhaikung moikapap ao e patetlah kai koe na thai tangcoung e naw hah, yuemkamcu niteh alouke tami bout ka cangkhai thai hane naw koe patuen poe loe.
3 Join me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
Jisuh Khrih e ransa kahawi lah kai hoi reithai khang van loe.
4 A soldier refrains from entangling himself in civilian affairs, in order to please the one who enlisted him.
Ransa thaw ka tawk ni a bawipa e lawk a tarawi e patetlah talai koe lah na lung pen hanh.
5 Likewise, a competitor does not receive the crown unless he competes according to the rules.
Yawng kâtânae dawk ka yawng e ni a phunglam patetlah yawng hoehpawiteh, bawilukhung hmawt mahoeh.
6 The hardworking farmer should be the first to partake of the crops.
Law ka sak nihai hmaloe a patang torei doeh a tawk na phu a ca van.
7 Consider what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all things.
Ka dei e lawknaw pueng Bawipa ni panuenae na poe e hoi kahawicalah pakhingpalang loe.
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David, as proclaimed by my gospel,
Devit catoun duenae koehoi kathaw e Jisuh Khrih kong heh pahnim awh hanh.
9 for which I suffer to the extent of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God cannot be chained!
Kamthang kahawi kecu dawk tamikapo patetlah na hmu awh, na man awh teh na katek awh. Hateiteh Cathut lawk teh katek thai awh hoeh.
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)
Hatdawkvah rawi lah kaawm e naw teh Khrih Jisuh thung kaawm e rungngangnae hah yungyoe bawilennae hoi cungtalah a hmu thai awh nahanelah kai ni ahnimouh hanelah bangpueng ka khang. (aiōnios g166)
11 This is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
Hetteh yuemkamcu e lawk doeh, ama hoi dout awh pawiteh ama hoi rei hring awh han.
12 if we endure, we will also reign with Him; if we deny Him, He will also deny us;
Ama hoi panguep awh pawiteh ama hoi cungtalah rei uk awh han. Na pahnawt pawiteh na pahnawt awh van han.
13 if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself.
Maimouh ni yuem awh hoeh nakunghai Bawipa teh yuemkamcu dawkvah, amahoima kâpahnawt thai hoeh.
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.
Bawipa hmalah cungkeihoehe kâoun rumram e naw hah kâhruetcuetnae poe haw. Kâounnae ni hnokahawi thokhai hoeh, kâraphoenae dueng doeh a thokhai.
15 Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth.
Nang teh Cathut hmalah yuemkamcu e tami lah na o teh lawkkatang hah kahawicalah kapek thai e, a taran kahawi e thaw katawkkung buet touh lah na kâhmoun thai nahan panki loe.
16 But avoid irreverent, empty chatter, which will only lead to more ungodliness,
Cathutlaipa e pathunae lawknaw hah roun loe.
17 and the talk of such men will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus,
Cangkhai payonnae teh a hmâ hoe kalensakkung lah ao. Himenaias hoi Philetus teh cangkhai payon dawk a kambawng roi.
18 who have deviated from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already occurred, and they undermine the faith of some.
Ahnimanaw ni lawkkatang lamthung a phen awh teh, kadout tangcoungnaw yo a thaw awh toe telah a dei awh dawkvah, tami tangawn e yuemnae a payon sak awh.
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.”
Hateiteh, Bawipa ni amae taminaw hah a panue. Bawipa min kampangkhai e taminaw teh hno kahawihoehe roun han tie hoi tacikkin lah kaawm e Cathut e im du teh a cak.
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.
Kalen e im dawk sui, ngun, thing, talai hoi sak e aphunphun ao teh bari e hno hoi barihoehe hno hai ao.
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.
Hatdawkvah, ka dei tangcoung e patetlah kahawihoehe pahnawt vaiteh, barinae, kathoung niteh imkung ni hno hane kawi lah o han a ngai.
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.
Nang teh nawsainaw ni raduek e roun nateh, lannae, yuemnae, roumnae, lungpatawnae naw hah kacaklah poe kuen loe.
23 But reject foolish and ignorant speculation, for you know that it breeds quarreling.
Pathunae lawk kâpaceinae niteh kâyuekâounnae doeh a tâcokhai tie panuek nateh roun loe.
24 And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and forbearing.
Bawipa e a san teh ayâ hoi lawk pungnae tawn mahoeh, alouknaw koe pahrennae ka tawn e hoi, Lung kasawe tami lah ao han.
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.
Ama ka tarannaw koe lawkkanem hoi cangkhai a ngai. Lawkkatang a dâw nahanelah Cathut ni lung kâthungnae a poe hai a poe yawkaw han doeh.
26 Then they will come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, who has taken them captive to his will.
Hahoi, kahraimathout ni a ngainae patetlah a man e taminaw ni a kâpanue vaiteh, hote mannae dawk hoi a hlout hai a hlout awh han doeh.
