2 Timothy 2
1 So you, my son, be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
Fe bara nani gono ning, se likara nanyan bolu Kutelle ulenge na udi nanyan Kristi Yesu.
2 Also, the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same to faithful men who will be competent to teach others also.
Nin nimon ilenge na uwa lanza kiti ning nanya niyizi iba gbardang, na inin nanya nacara nanit acine alenge na ima yinnu udursuze wang.
3 You therefore are to endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Pira inniu nin mi nafo kusojan Kristi Yesu kucine.
4 No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in the affairs of civilian life; he wants to please the one who enlisted him.
Na kusoja duku ko nakudi katwa akuyita nanya lanzun mang yii ulele, bara anan na una ubun me nmang.
5 Further, if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules
Tutung, andi umon cum nafo anan cum sesun nduk, na asa inaghe uduke ba se adofino tiduka ncume.
6 —the hardworking farmer should be the first to receive of the fruits.
Uso gbas ame unan katwa kune na adin su kang seru uduk nimon kunene nin cizunu.
7 Ponder what I am saying; may the Lord indeed give you understanding in it all.
Kpiliza kitene nimon ile na ndin bellu, bara Kutelle manifi uyinnun vat nimon.
8 Keep thinking of Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, of David's seed; this is my gospel,
Lizinon Yesu Kristi ku, Ucizunun fimus in Dauda, urika na iwa fyghe nanyan kul. Ulele di cot nin liru ulau nighari,
9 for which I am suffering to the point of being in chains like a criminal, but the Word of God is not chained.
Urika na ndin niu udun terii nafo unan molsu nanit. Ama na ina teru uliru Kutelle ba.
10 This is why I endure it all: for the sake of the chosen ones, that they also may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
Bara nani ndin teru nayi nanya nimon vat bara alenge na ina fere, inung wang nan se utucu ulenge na udin Kristi Yesu, nin gongon sa ligan. (aiōnios g166)
11 This is a trustworthy word: If, indeed, we died together, we will also live together;
Ulengee ubelle un yinnuari: “Andi ti kuu ninghe, tima kuru titi ulai ninghe.
12 if we endure, we will also reign together; if we deny, He will also deny us;
Andi ti tere nibinayi, tima kuru tisu tigo ninghe. Andi tinarighe, ame wang manari nari.
13 if we are faithless, He remains faithful —He is incapable of denying Himself.
Asa ti di nin diru kidegen ame wang baso sa kidegen, bara na awasa anari litime ba.”
14 Keep reiterating these things, exhorting them before the Lord not to argue about words to no useful purpose—it just ruins the hearers.
Leu ubun lizunu nani nin nimong ilele. Wunno nani atuf nbun Kutelle na iwa su kabun kitene tigbula ba. Bara ilenge imone na imon duku icine ba. Bara ilenge imone ukul duku nalenge na idin lanzu.
15 Make every effort to render yourself approved by God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, handling the Word of the Truth correctly.
Fo kidowo udak nin litife ubun Kutelle imon seru nafo unit katwa sa ncin. Mino tigbulang kidegene gegeme.
16 But shun godless, empty chatter, because those who do it will become increasingly godless,
Suna uliru bidibidi, na udin du nin diru Kutelle.
17 and their word will spread like gangrene—among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus,
Uliru mine din malu kiti nafo ukul tijii kidowo. Nanya mine Himenes nin Piletus duku.
18 who have wandered away from the Truth, saying that the resurrection has already occurred; and they overturn the faith of some.
Alele anitari na wuro kidegene. Idin ufitu nanan kulen mal katu. Ina kpilya uyinnu sa uyenu namong.
19 Nevertheless, the solid foundation of God stands firm, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and let everyone who claims the name of the Lord keep away from unrighteousness.
Vat nin nani, likara litino Kutelle yissin. Lidi nin nile imone: “Cikilare yiru alenge na idi anme” ni “Vat nlenge na idin yiccughe nin lissa Kutelle ama sunu katwa kanangzang gbas.”
20 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some, to be sure, are for honor, but some are for dishonor.
Kilari nikurfu, na niti cinsu tizinariya nin azurfari duku cas ba. Kitin cisu nakatu duku nin tiwin. Nanya nalele in katwa kalau duku, a in katwa kanangzang ku.
21 So if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.
Asa umong wese litime unuzu katwa kanangzang, ame kitin cisu nimon icinari. Ina kalaghe iceu ugan, ama yitu imon katwan Cikilari, inin kyeleghe bara kokame katwa kacine.
22 Flee the lusts of youth; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Cong inuzu nanya kunaniyizi nfitu. Dorton katwa kacine nin cum, uyinnu sa uyenu, usuu, a lissosin limang nin nalenge na idin yiccu Cikilare ku nanya nibinayi nilau.
23 Refuse foolish and ignorant arguments, knowing that they breed quarrels.
Ama narin utirinu tilalan nin dirun nonku liti. Uyiru nwo asa uda nin mayardang.
24 Now a slave of the Lord should not quarrel but be gentle towards all, skillful at teaching, forbearing,
Na kucin Kutelle nwasu kabun ba. Ama na yitu sheuwari kitin kogha, awasa adursuzo anin yita seng.
25 correcting courteously those who oppose him, in hopes that God may grant them repentance leading to a real knowledge of Truth,
Amasu nin nonku liti udursuzu nalenge na inari uliru me. Nbata Kutelle nani ukpilu nanya yinnun liru kidegen.
26 and that they may retrieve their senses out of the devil's snare (having been taken captive by him to do his will).
Iwasa iyita nin kpilu tutun inin suna libardang shintan, kimal nkifu mine na awa kifo bari katwa me.
