2 Timothy 2
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the Favour that is in Yahushua the Messiah.
Oo, Timotheo, morwaaka, tia mo nonofong e Keresete Jesu o go e neileng.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
Gonne o tshwanetse go ruta ba bangwe dilo tse wena le ba bangwe lo nkutlwileng ke bua ka tsone. Ruta batho ba ba ikanyegang boammaaruri jo bogolo jo le bone ba tlaa bo rutang ba bangwe.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Yahushua the Messiah.
Tsaya seabe sa gago sa go boga jaaka lesole le le siameng la ga Jesu Keresete, fela jaaka ke dira,
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
mme jaaka lesole la ga Keresete o se ka wa itlhakatlhakanya le dilo tsa selefatshe, gonne ga o kake wa itumedisa ene yo o go kwadileng mo mophatong wa batlhabani ba gagwe.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
Latela melao ya Morena go dira tiro ya gagwe, felajaaka mosiani a ka latela melao kgotsa a bonwa molato mme a tlhoke go gapa sekgele.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
Dira thata, jaaka molemi yo o duelwang sentle ka go roba thobo e kgolo.
7 Consider what I say; and YHWH give thee understanding in all things.
Akanya ka ditshwantsho tse tharo tse, mme a Morena a go thuse go tlhaloganya gore di amana jang le botshelo jwa gago.
8 Remember that Yahushua the Messiah of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my evangel:
O se ka wa lebala ntlha ya botlhokwa ya gore Jesu Keresete e ne e le Motho, wa lotso lwa ga Kgosi Dafide; le gore e ne e le Modimo, jaaka go supilwe ke boammaaruri jwa gore o tsogile gape mo baswing.
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of YHWH is not bound.
Ke ka ntlha ya gore ke rerile boammaaruri jo bogolo jo, ke gone ka moo ke leng fano mo matshwenyegong ebile ke tsentswe mo kgolegelong jaaka serukhutlhi. Mme Lefoko la Modimo lone ga le a golegwa, le fa nna ke golegilwe.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Yahushua the Messiah with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
Ke rata thata go boga, fa moo go ka tlisa poloko le kgalalelo ya bosakhutleng ka Keresete Jesu mo go ba Modimo o ba tlhophileng. (aiōnios g166)
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
Ke gomoditswe ke boammaaruri jo, gore fa ke boga re bo re swela Keresete go raya gore re tlaa simolola go nna le ene kwa legodimong.
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
Mme fa re a kanya gore go mo direla ka nako eno go bokete, gakologelwang gore letsatsi lengwe re tlaa nna Nae re bo re busa Nae. Mme fa re lesa ka ntlha ya go boga, re fularela Keresete, mme le ene o tshwanetse go re fularela.
13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
Mme le fa re le bokoa thata mo re se kakeng ra salelwa ke tumelo epe, o nna a le boikanyego mo go rona ebile otlaa re thusa, gonne ga a kake a re itatola rona ba re leng bontlha bongwe jwa gagwe, mme o tlaa diragatsa ditsholofetso tsa gagwe mo go rona ka malatsi otlhe.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before YHWH that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
Gakolola batho ba gago dintlha tse dikgolo tse, mme ba lae mo leineng la Morena gore ba se ka ba ganetsanya mo dilong tse di sa tlhokegeng. Dikganetsanyo tse di ntseng jalo di a timetsa ebile ga di na mosola, ebile di a bolaya.
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto YHWH, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Dira thata gore Modimo o tle o go reye o re, “O dirile sentle.” Nna modiri yo o siameng, yo o sa tlhokeng go tlhabiwa ke ditlhong fa Modimo o tlhatlhoba tiro ya gago. Itse se Lefoko la One le se buang le se le se rayang.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more wickedness.
O tshabe dikgang tsa boeleele tse di gogelang batho mo sebeng sa go galefelana.
17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
Dilo di tlaa buiwa tse di tukang di bile di utlwisa ntho e e kekelang Humenaio le Feleto, mo go rateng dikganetsanyo, ke batho ba ba ntseng jalo.
18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
Ba tlogetse tsela ya boammaaruri, ba rera maaka a gore tsogo ya baswi e setse e diragetse; ebile ba koafaditse tumelo ya bangwe ba ba ba dumelang.
19 Nevertheless the foundation of YHWH standeth sure, having this seal, YHWH knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of the Messiah depart from iniquity.
Mme boammaaruri jwa Modimo bo nitame jaaka lefika je legolo, ebile ga go na sepe se se ka bo tshikhinyang. Ke lefika la motheo le le nang le mafoko a mo go lone: “Morena o itse ba tota e leng ba gagwe,” mme “motho yo o ipitsang Mokeresete ga aa tshwanela go dira dilo tse di sa siamang.”
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
Mo lwapeng lwa mohumi go na le dijana tse di dirilweng ka gauta le selefera le tse dingwe di dirilwe ka logong le ka letsopa. Dijana tse di tlhwatlhwa kgolo di dirisediwa baeng, mme tse di tlhwatlhwa e potlana di dirisiwa mo tlung ya kapeelo kgotsa go tsenya matlakala.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
Fa o fularela sebe o tlaa nna jaaka sengwe sa dijana tse di dirilweng ka gauta e e itshekileng, tse e leng tsone tse di siameng mo tlung, gore Keresete a tle a go dirisetse maikaelelo a gagwe a magolo.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on YHWH out of a pure heart.
Tshaba sengwe le sengwe se se ka go nayang dikgopolo tse di bosula tse makawana gantsi ba nang le tsone, mme o nne gaufi le sengwe le sengwe se se go dirang gore o batle go dira tshiamo. Nna le tumelo le lorato, mme o nne botsalano le ba ba ratang Morena ebile ba na le dipelo tse di itshekileng.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
Gape ka re, o se ka wa tsena mo dikganetsanyong tsa boeleele tse di tsosang kgang mo bathong di bo di ba galefisa.
24 And the servant of YHWH must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
Batho ba Modimo ga ba a tshwanela go omana; ba tshwanetse go nna tshiamo, e le baruti ba ba pelotelele mo go ba ba molato.
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if YHWH peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
Ikokobetse fa o leka go ruta ba ba akabalang mabapi le boammaaruri. Gonne fa o bua le bone ka bonolo le ka maitseo ka thuso ya Modimo, go ka diragala gore ba tlogele megopolo ya bone e e sa siamang mme ba dumele se e leng boammaaruri.
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
Mme ba tlaa itharabologelwa mme ba falole mo serung sa botlhanka sa ga Satane sa go leofa, se o se dirisang go ba tshwara ka nako nngwe le nngwe e o e ratang, mme jalo ba ka simolola go dira go rata ga Modimo.
