2 Timothy 2
1 Thou therefore, my child, be strong in the grace which [is] in Christ Jesus.
Hinu veve wamwana vangu, uvya na makakala muubwina wa Chapanga yetipata mukuwungana na Kilisitu Yesu.
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.
Tola mawuliwu gala gewayuwini nikokosa palongolo ya vandu vamahele vevagawene, ugagotola kwa vandu vevisadikika, vevihotola kuvawula vangi mewa.
3 Take thy share in suffering as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Kangamala mukuviniswa pamonga na tete ngati manjolinjoli mchakaka wa Kilisitu Yesu.
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.
Manjolinjoli peivya mungondo iyepa kukita lihengu lelivala wumi wa kila ligono muni kumganisa mkulu wa manjolinjoli.
5 And if also any one contend [in the games], he is not crowned unless he contend lawfully.
Mjumbaji yoyoha nakuhotola kupewa njombi changali kujumba kulanda malagizu ga mikinu.
6 The husbandman must labour before partaking of the fruits.
Mlimaji mwaihenga lihengu lelinonopa iganikiwa kupewa pahala pa kutumbula pa mabenu.
7 Think of what I say, for the Lord will give thee understanding in all things.
Holalela genago genijova, muni Bambu yati akuhotolesa umanya kila chindu.
8 Remember Jesus Christ raised from among [the] dead, of [the] seed of David, according to my glad tidings,
Mkumbuka Yesu Kilisitu mwayukiswi kuhuma mulifwa, mwavili mu lukolo lwa Daudi, ngati chegijova Mayandiku ga Bwina genakokwisi,
9 in which I suffer even unto bonds as an evil-doer: but the word of God is not bound.
ndi ndava ya kukokosa Lilovi la Bwina nene nikungiwa minyololo ngati mundu muhakau. Nambu lilovi la Chapanga likungiwa lepi minyololo.
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)
Hinu ndi nisindimala mukila chindu ndava ya vandu vevahaguliwi na Chapanga, muni na vene vapata ugombozi kwa njila ya Yesu Kilisitu, na vevileta ukulu wa magono goha gangali mwishu. (aiōnios g166)
11 The word [is] faithful; for if we have died together with [him], we shall also live together;
Ujovo uwu ndi wachakaka, “Yikavyai tafwili pamonga na mwene, ndi yati tivya mumi na mwene
12 if we endure, we shall also reign together; if we deny, he also will deny us;
Tisindimala, Yati kulongosa na mwene, Tikambela, na mwene yati akutibela.
13 if we are unfaithful, he abides faithful, for he cannot deny himself.
Ngati nakuvya vasadikika, mwene isigalila kuvya msadikika, muni nakuhotola kung'anamuka kwa gala geajovili.”
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.
Ndi, vakumbusa vandu vako mambu aga na kuvahakalila palongolo ya Chapanga valeka ndindani ndava ya malovi. Ndindani yeniyo nakuganikiwa ndi uvahalabisa veviyuwana.
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.
Kangamala kujilangisa kuvya uyidikiliwi na Chapanga ngati muhenga lihengu mwangali soni mulihengu laki na mweiwula chakaka ujumbi wa chakaka wa Chapanga.
16 But profane, vain babblings shun, for they will advance to greater impiety,
Jivika patali na malovi gangaganikiwa gachihomela, muni genago gakuvavika vandu vavyai patali na Chapanga.
17 and their word will spread as a gangrene; of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
Mawuliwu ngati ago ndi ngati lilonda lelikula na lelilya higa. Pagati ya vandu veviwula genago ndi Humenayo na Fileto.
18 [men] who as to the truth have gone astray, saying that the resurrection has taken place already; and overthrow the faith of some.
Venava vayagili kutali na uchakaka, na kuyisopa sadika ya vandu vangi muwogoyi kwa vijova vandu vevafwili vamali kuyuka.
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.
Nambu mkingisa weutimiliki wewavikiwi na Chapanga usindimala, na panani yaki payandikwi malovi “Bambu avamanyili vandu vevavili vaki” Na “Kila mwaijova mwene ndi wa Bambu ndi aleka uhakau.”
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.
Munyumba yivaha gavili mankeve ga kila namuna gangi ga zahabu na mashonga, gangi ga ludaka vingi vya mikongo, na vingi vya lihengu la utopesa na hingi ndava ya lihengu la kila ligono.
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.
Hinu ngati mundu akujinyambisa kwa kujivika patali na mambu gahakau, yati ivya chindu cha lihengu lene, muni ahaguliwi ndava ya kumhengela Bambu waki na ajitendekili kwa lihengu loloha la bwina.
22 But youthful lusts flee, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those that call upon the Lord out of a pure heart.
Jivika patali na mnogo wa usongolo, landa gegavi gabwina palongolo ya Bambu na sadika na uganu na uteke, pamonga na vandu voha vevakumuyupa Bambu kwa mtima wabwina.
23 But foolish and senseless questionings avoid, knowing that they beget contentions.
Yepa ndindani ya uhomela na chiyimu, umanyili kuvya ago gileta ngondo.
24 And a bondman of [the] Lord ought not to contend, but be gentle towards all; apt to teach; forbearing;
Mtumisi wa Bambu akotoka kutovana. Iganikiwa kuvya mngolongondi kwa vandu voha, muwula wabwina na mweisindimala,
25 in meekness setting right those who oppose, if God perhaps may sometime give them repentance to acknowledgment of [the] truth,
ndi mpoli peakuvahakalila vevakumbela, pangi Chapanga akuvapela fwasi ya kuleka kwavi kumbudila Chapanga, na kuumanya uchakaka.
26 and that they may awake up out of the snare of the devil, [who are] taken by him, for his will.
Penapo luhala lwavi yati lukuvawuyila kavili, vakalema mulikoka la Setani mwavayonjwili na kuvakita vayidakila gala geigana mwene.
