< 2 Timothy 3 >
1 This knowe also, that in the last dayes shall come perilous times.
Wò ŋku nenɔ esia dzi be ɣeyiɣi vɔ̃wo ava le ŋkeke mamlɛawo me.
2 For men shalbe louers of their owne selues, couetous, boasters, proud, cursed speakers, disobedient to parents, vnthankefull, vnholy,
Amewo anye ɖokuilɔ̃lawo, galɔ̃lawo, adegbe ƒuƒlu ƒolawo, dadalawo, amedzulawo, ame siwo meɖoa to wo dzilawo o, akpemadalawo, ame makɔmakɔwo,
3 Without naturall affection, truce breakers, false accusers, intemperate, fierce, no louers at all of them which are good,
amemalɔ̃lawo, ame siwo metsɔa nu vɔ̃ kena o, ameŋugblẽlawo, ɖokuidzimaɖulawo, ŋutasẽlawo, ame siwo léa fu nu nyui,
4 Traitours, headie, high minded, louers of pleasures more then louers of God,
amegɔmezɔlawo, dzimagbɔɖitɔwo, ɖokuiŋudzelawo, ame siwo lɔ̃a xexemedzidzɔ wu Mawu,
5 Hauing a shewe of godlinesse, but haue denied the power thereof: turne away therefore from such.
ame siwo si gotagome ƒe mawuvɔvɔ̃ le, evɔ wogbe nu le ŋusẽ si ana be woanɔ agbe le Mawu me la gbɔ. Te ɖokuiwò ɖa xaa tso ame siawo gbɔ.
6 For of this sort are they which creepe into houses, and leade captiue simple women laden with sinnes, and led with diuers lustes,
Woawoe nye ame siwo yia ame bubuwo ƒe aƒewo me le adzame, eye wowɔa xɔlɔ̃ kple nyɔnu abunɛtɔ siwo me nu vɔ̃ xɔ aƒe ɖo la, eye wofiaa woƒe xɔse yeye la wo.
7 Which women are euer learning, and are neuer able to come to the acknowledging of the trueth.
Nyɔnu siawo tɔgbi dzea nufiala yeyewo yome ɣe sia ɣi, ke womesea nyateƒe la gɔme ɣe aɖeke ɣi o.
8 And as Iannes and Iambres withstoode Moses, so doe these also resist the trueth, men of corrupt mindes, reprobate concerning the faith.
Nufiala siawo tsia tsitre ɖe nyateƒe la ŋu abe ale si Yane kple Yambre tsi tsitre ɖe Mose ŋu ene. Susu ƒoɖi totro kpaɖikpaɖiwo le wo me, eye wotsi tsitre ɖe Kristo dzixɔse la ŋu.
9 But they shall preuaile no longer: for their madnesse shalbe euident vnto all men, as theirs also was.
Ke womanɔ edzi alea tegbee o. Gbe ɖeka la, amewo katã ava nya woƒe amebeble abe ale si amewo va nya Yane kple Yambre ƒe nu vɔ̃ ene.
10 But thou hast fully knowen my doctrine, maner of liuing, purpose, faith, long suffering, loue, patience,
Ke ènya to ŋkuléle ɖe ŋunye me be nyemenye ame siawo tɔgbi o. Ènya nu si dzi mexɔ se, ale si menɔa agbee kple nu si dim mele. Ènya nye Kristo dzixɔse kple nye fukpekpewo. Ènya nu tso ale si melɔ̃ wò kple nye dzidodo ŋu.
11 Persecutions, and afflictions which came vnto me at Antiochia, at Iconium, and at Lystri, which persecutions I suffered: but from them all the Lord deliuered me.
Ènya fukpekpe geɖe siwo va dzinye le gbeƒãɖeɖe nyanyui la ta. Ènya nu siwo katã wowɔm esi meyi Antioxia, Ikonio kple Listra hã, ke Aƒetɔ la ɖem tso wo me.
12 Yea, and all that will liue godly in Christ Iesus, shall suffer persecution.
Ɛ̃, ame siwo ɖo be yewoadze Kristo Yesu ŋu to agbenɔnɔ le mawuvɔvɔ̃ me me la akpe fu le ame siwo lé fui la ƒe asi me.
13 But the euill men and deceiuers, shall waxe worse and worse, deceiuing, and being deceiued.
Le nyateƒe me la, ame vɔ̃ɖiwo kple aʋatsonufialawo ƒe vɔɖivɔ̃ɖi anɔ sesẽm ɖe edzi wu, eye woanɔ ame geɖewo blem abe ale si Satana ble woawo ŋutɔ hã ene.
14 But continue thou in the thinges which thou hast learned, and which are committed vnto thee, knowing of who thou hast learned them:
Ke ele na wò be nàlé nu siwo wofia wò la dzixɔse me ɖe asi. Ènya be nu siawo nye nyateƒe, elabena ènya be yeate ŋu axɔ mí ame siwo fia nu siawo wò la dzi ase.
15 And that thou hast knowen the holy Scriptures of a childe, which are able to make thee wise vnto saluation, through the faith which is in Christ Iesus.
Ènya ale si, esi nènye ɖevi sue la, wofia Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔe la wò, nu siawo na nèdze nunya be nàkpɔ Mawu ƒe ɖeɖe to Kristo Yesu dzixɔse me.
16 For the whole Scripture is giuen by inspiration of God, and is profitable to teache, to conuince, to correct, and to instruct in righteousnesse,
Mawu tsɔ eƒe nya la na mí to eƒe Gbɔgbɔ si wɔ dɔ le amewo me la dzi, eya ta Biblia nyo hena nufiafia tso nu siwo nye nyateƒe la ŋu kple ale si wòana míadze si nu siwo nye nu vɔ̃ le míaƒe agbenɔnɔ me. Edaa mí ɖe mɔ dzɔdzɔe dzi, eye wòkpena ɖe mía ŋu be míawɔ nu si nyo, eye wòdze.
17 That the man of God may be absolute, being made perfect vnto all good workes.
Eyae nye Mawu ƒe mɔ si dzraa mí ɖo nyuie le go sia go me hena nyuiwɔwɔ na ame sia ame.
