2 Timothy 2
1 Thou therefore, my sonne, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Iesus.
Nipele mmwe mwanangu nlimbichikwe mu umbone wa Akunnungu utukupochela nkulumbikana ni Kilisito Yesu.
2 And what things thou hast heard of me, by many witnesses, ye same deliuer to faithfull men, which shalbe able to teache other also.
Ngajigale majiganyo gimpikene kwanguune ginagasasile mmbujo mwa ŵaumboni ŵajinji, ilaila mwape ŵandu ŵakukulupichika uchakombole kwajiganya ŵane.
3 Thou therefore suffer affliction as a good souldier of Iesus Christ.
Mpililile mmalagasyo pamo nowe nti jwangondo jwambone jwa Kilisito Yesu.
4 No man that warreth, entangleth himselfe with the affaires of this life, because he woulde please him that hath chosen him to be a souldier.
Jwangondo jwakumenyana ngondo akuliŵambasya ni indu ya umi wa moŵa gose nambo akupanganya indu yaikunnonyelesya jwankulu jwakwe.
5 And if any man also striue for a Masterie, he is not crowned, except he striue as he ought to doe.
Iyoyo mundu jwakupunda mu luwilo lwa kuutuka ngakupata chindu mpela singwa iŵaga nganakuya malajisyo ga luwilo lo.
6 The husbandman must labour before he receiue the fruites.
Jwakulima jwalimile kwa kuchalila akusachilwa aŵe jwaandanda kupata milimbu.
7 Consider what I say: and the Lord giue thee vnderstanding in all things:
Mganisye ingusala yi, pakuŵa Ambuje champe lunda lwa kuimanyilila yose.
8 Remember that Iesus Christ, made of the seede of Dauid, was raysed againe from the dead according to my Gospel,
Mwakumbuchile Che Yesu Kilisito ŵasyuchile, ŵa lukosyo lu che Daudi mpela ijikuti kusala Ngani Jambone jingulalichila.
9 Wherein I suffer trouble as an euill doer, euen vnto bondes: but the worde of God is not bounde.
Une ngusauka ni kutaŵikwa ni minyolo nti mundu jwachigongomalo kwa ligongo lya kulalichila Ngani Jambone ji. Nambo Liloŵe lya Akunnungu ngalikutaŵikwa ni minyolo.
10 Therefore I suffer all things, for the elects sake, that they might also obtaine the saluation which is in Christ Iesus, with eternall glorie. (aiōnios g166)
Kwa ligongo li ngupililila yose kwa ligongo lya ŵandu ŵaŵasagulikwe ni Akunnungu kuti ŵelewo nombe akulupuswe kwa litala lya Kilisito Yesu ni kwichisya ukulu wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios g166)
11 It is a true saying, For if we be dead together with him, we also shall liue together with him.
Au uŵechete u uli wausyene wati, “Iŵaga twawile pamo nawo, iyoyo tutulame pamo nawo.
12 If we suffer, we shall also reigne together with him: if we denie him, he also will denie vs.
Iŵaga tutupunde kupililila, sooni tutulongosye pamo nawo. Iŵaga tutwakane, nombewo chatukane uweji.
13 If we beleeue not, yet abideth he faithfull: he cannot denie himselfe.
Iŵaga ngatukukulupilichika, ŵele chapunde kukulupilichika, pakuŵa ngakukombola kugagalauka gaŵechete nsyene.”
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, and protest before the Lord, that they striue not about wordes, which is to no profit, but to the peruerting of the hearers.
Yele indu yi mwakumbusye ŵandu ŵenu ni kwajamuka paujo pa Akunnungu kuti aleche kukanilana nkati maloŵe. Kukanilana kwangali malumbo pakuŵa kukwalyungasya ŵandu ŵakugapilikana.
15 Studie to shewe thy selfe approued vnto God, a workeman that needeth not to be ashamed, diuiding the worde of trueth aright.
Nchalile kwannope kuti nkombole kukundikwa ni Akunnungu nti jwa masengo jwangaikuntesya soni pa masengo gakwe, ni jwakwiganya uchenene ntenga wa usyenesyene wa Akunnungu.
16 Stay prophane, and vaine babblings: for they shall encrease vnto more vngodlinesse.
Nliŵambasye mu iŵecheto ya wamba ni yangalumbana, pakuŵa yele ikwatenda ŵandu akaanonyelesya Akunnungu.
17 And their worde shall fret as a canker: of which sort is Hymeneus and Philetus,
Majiganyo ganti yele gali mpela liŵanga ndonde lyalikutauna chiilu. Mwa ŵele ŵajiganyisye yele apali che Himeneyo ni che Fileto.
18 Which as concerning ye trueth haue erred from the marke, saying that the resurrection is past alreadie, and do destroy the faith of certaine.
Ŵele ŵandu alilesile litala lya usyene ni kuchiŵika chikulupi cha ŵandu ŵane mu lipamba achitiji kusyuka kwa ŵandu wose kumasile kutendekwa.
19 But the foundation of God remaineth sure, and hath this seale, The Lord knoweth who are his: and, Let euery one that calleth on the Name of Christ, depart from iniquitie.
Nambo usyene wa Akunnungu ujimi kwa kulimba nti liganga lya nsingi ni pachanya pakwe galembechekwe, “Ambuje akwamanyilila ŵandu ŵakwe,” ni “Jwalijose jwakuti aŵele jwa Ambuje, aleche sambi.”
20 Notwithstanding in a great house are not onely vessels of gold and of siluer, but also of wood and of earth, and some for honour, and some vnto dishonour.
Mu nyuumba jajikulungwa kwana yoombo yaikolochekwe kwa sahabu ni kwa mbiya, ni yoombo ine ikolochekwe kwa itela ni kwa litaka, nombeyo ikutumikwa kwa masengo katema kose.
21 If any man therefore purge him selfe from these, he shalbe a vessell vnto honour, sanctified, and meete for the Lord, and prepared vnto euery good worke.
Nipele iŵaga mundu chaliswejesye kwa kulitalikanganya ni sambi, chaaŵe jwasagulikwe ni kuŵichikwa pajikajika pe kwa kwatumichila Ambuje ŵao. Nombewo ali chile kwa masengo gambone.
22 Flee also from the lustes of youth, and follow after righteousnes, faith, loue, and peace, with them that call on the Lord with pure heart,
Nliŵambasye ni tama ja uchanda ni nsose kupanganya yakusaka Akunnungu ni nkole chikulupi ni unonyelo ni chitendewele pamo ni ŵandu wose ŵakwapopelela Ambuje kwa ntima wambone.
23 And put away foolish and vnlearned questions, knowing that they ingender strife.
Ngakane makani ga kuloŵela gangalimate pakuŵa nkuimanyilila kuti gelego gakutandisya umenyani.
24 But the seruant of ye Lord must not striue, but must be gentle toward all men, apt to teache, suffering the euill,
Jwakwatumichila Ambuje akakanilana. Akusachilwa aŵeje jwakulitimalika kwa ŵandu wose ni jwakwiganya jwambone ni jwakupililila,
25 Instructing them with meekenesse that are contrary minded, prouing if God at any time will giue them repentance, that they may acknowledge the trueth,
jwakwajamuka kwa kulitimalika aŵala ŵakwakanila pakuŵa panepa Akunnungu akukombola kwapa lipesa lya kuleka sambi syao ni kuumanyilila usyene.
26 And come to amendment out of that snare of the deuil, of whom they are taken prisoners, to doe his will.
Kwa litala lyo lunda lwao chilwaujile, kwayele chakulupuche pa chitanji cha Shetani chiŵatanjisye ni kwatenda ajitichisye kupanganya yakusaka.
