2 Timothy 2

1 Thou therefore, my child, be strong in the grace which [is] in Christ Jesus.

συ ουν τεκνον μου ενδυναμου εν τη χαριτι τη εν χριστω ιησου

2 And the things thou hast heard of me in the presence of many witnesses, these entrust to faithful men, such as shall be competent to instruct others also.

και α ηκουσας παρ εμου δια πολλων μαρτυρων ταυτα παραθου πιστοις ανθρωποις οιτινες ικανοι εσονται και ετερους διδαξαι

3 Take thy share in suffering as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

συ ουν κακοπαθησον ως καλος στρατιωτης ιησου χριστου

4 No one going as a soldier entangles himself with the affairs of life, that he may please him who has enlisted him as a soldier.

ουδεις στρατευομενος εμπλεκεται ταις του βιου πραγματειαις ινα τω στρατολογησαντι αρεση

5 And if also any one contend [in the games], he is not crowned unless he contend lawfully.

εαν δε και αθλη τις ου στεφανουται εαν μη νομιμως αθληση

6 The husbandman must labour before partaking of the fruits.

τον κοπιωντα γεωργον δει πρωτον των καρπων μεταλαμβανειν

7 Think of what I say, for the Lord will give thee understanding in all things.

νοει α λεγω δωη γαρ σοι ο κυριος συνεσιν εν πασιν

8 Remember Jesus Christ raised from among [the] dead, of [the] seed of David, according to my glad tidings,

μνημονευε ιησουν χριστον εγηγερμενον εκ νεκρων εκ σπερματος δαβιδ κατα το ευαγγελιον μου

9 in which I suffer even unto bonds as an evil-doer: but the word of God is not bound.

εν ω κακοπαθω μεχρι δεσμων ως κακουργος αλλ ο λογος του θεου ου δεδεται

10 For this cause I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which [is] in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)

δια τουτο παντα υπομενω δια τους εκλεκτους ινα και αυτοι σωτηριας τυχωσιν της εν χριστω ιησου μετα δοξης αιωνιου (aiōnios g166)

11 The word [is] faithful; for if we have died together with [him], we shall also live together;

πιστος ο λογος ει γαρ συναπεθανομεν και συζησομεν

12 if we endure, we shall also reign together; if we deny, he also will deny us;

ει υπομενομεν και συμβασιλευσομεν ει αρνουμεθα κακεινος αρνησεται ημας

13 if we are unfaithful, he abides faithful, for he cannot deny himself.

ει απιστουμεν εκεινος πιστος μενει αρνησασθαι εαυτον ου δυναται

14 Of these things put in remembrance, testifying earnestly before the Lord not to have disputes of words, profitable for nothing, to the subversion of the hearers.

ταυτα υπομιμνησκε διαμαρτυρομενος ενωπιον του κυριου μη λογομαχειν εις ουδεν χρησιμον επι καταστροφη των ακουοντων

15 Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God, a workman that has not to be ashamed, cutting in a straight line the word of truth.

σπουδασον σεαυτον δοκιμον παραστησαι τω θεω εργατην ανεπαισχυντον ορθοτομουντα τον λογον της αληθειας

16 But profane, vain babblings shun, for they will advance to greater impiety,

τας δε βεβηλους κενοφωνιας περιιστασο επι πλειον γαρ προκοψουσιν ασεβειας

17 and their word will spread as a gangrene; of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

και ο λογος αυτων ως γαγγραινα νομην εξει ων εστιν υμεναιος και φιλητος

18 [men] who as to the truth have gone astray, saying that the resurrection has taken place already; and overthrow the faith of some.

οιτινες περι την αληθειαν ηστοχησαν λεγοντες την αναστασιν ηδη γεγονεναι και ανατρεπουσιν την τινων πιστιν

19 Yet the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, [The] Lord knows those that are his; and, Let every one who names the name of [the] Lord withdraw from iniquity.

ο μεντοι στερεος θεμελιος του θεου εστηκεν εχων την σφραγιδα ταυτην εγνω κυριος τους οντας αυτου και αποστητω απο αδικιας πας ο ονομαζων το ονομα χριστου

20 But in a great house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also wooden and earthen; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

εν μεγαλη δε οικια ουκ εστιν μονον σκευη χρυσα και αργυρα αλλα και ξυλινα και οστρακινα και α μεν εις τιμην α δε εις ατιμιαν

21 If therefore one shall have purified himself from these, [in separating himself from them], he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, serviceable to the Master, prepared for every good work.

εαν ουν τις εκκαθαρη εαυτον απο τουτων εσται σκευος εις τιμην ηγιασμενον και ευχρηστον τω δεσποτη εις παν εργον αγαθον ητοιμασμενον

22 But youthful lusts flee, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those that call upon the Lord out of a pure heart.

τας δε νεωτερικας επιθυμιας φευγε διωκε δε δικαιοσυνην πιστιν αγαπην ειρηνην μετα των επικαλουμενων τον κυριον εκ καθαρας καρδιας

23 But foolish and senseless questionings avoid, knowing that they beget contentions.

τας δε μωρας και απαιδευτους ζητησεις παραιτου ειδως οτι γεννωσιν μαχας

24 And a bondman of [the] Lord ought not to contend, but be gentle towards all; apt to teach; forbearing;

δουλον δε κυριου ου δει μαχεσθαι αλλ ηπιον ειναι προς παντας διδακτικον ανεξικακον

25 in meekness setting right those who oppose, if God perhaps may sometime give them repentance to acknowledgment of [the] truth,

εν πραοτητι παιδευοντα τους αντιδιατιθεμενους μηποτε δω αυτοις ο θεος μετανοιαν εις επιγνωσιν αληθειας

26 and that they may awake up out of the snare of the devil, [who are] taken by him, for his will.

και ανανηψωσιν εκ της του διαβολου παγιδος εζωγρημενοι υπ αυτου εις το εκεινου θελημα
