< 2 Timothy 4 >
1 I charge [thee] therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
īśvarasya gocare yaśca yīśuḥ khrīṣṭaḥ svīyāgamanakāle svarājatvena jīvatāṁ mṛtānāñca lokānāṁ vicāraṁ kariṣyati tasya gocare 'haṁ tvām idaṁ dṛḍham ājñāpayāmi|
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
tvaṁ vākyaṁ ghoṣaya kāle'kāle cotsuko bhava pūrṇayā sahiṣṇutayā śikṣayā ca lokān prabodhaya bhartsaya vinayasva ca|
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
yata etādṛśaḥ samaya āyāti yasmin lokā yathārtham upadeśam asahyamānāḥ karṇakaṇḍūyanaviśiṣṭā bhūtvā nijābhilāṣāt śikṣakān saṁgrahīṣyanti
4 And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
satyamatācca śrotrāṇi nivarttya vipathagāmino bhūtvopākhyāneṣu pravarttiṣyante;
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
kintu tvaṁ sarvvaviṣaye prabuddho bhava duḥkhabhogaṁ svīkuru susaṁvādapracārakasya karmma sādhaya nijaparicaryyāṁ pūrṇatvena kuru ca|
6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
mama prāṇānām utsargo bhavati mama prasthānakālaścopātiṣṭhat|
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith:
aham uttamayuddhaṁ kṛtavān gantavyamārgasyāntaṁ yāvad dhāvitavān viśvāsañca rakṣitavān|
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
śeṣaṁ puṇyamukuṭaṁ madarthaṁ rakṣitaṁ vidyate tacca tasmin mahādine yathārthavicārakeṇa prabhunā mahyaṁ dāyiṣyate kevalaṁ mahyam iti nahi kintu yāvanto lokāstasyāgamanam ākāṅkṣante tebhyaḥ sarvvebhyo 'pi dāyiṣyate|
9 Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:
tvaṁ tvarayā matsamīpam āgantuṁ yatasva,
10 For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia. (aiōn )
yato dīmā aihikasaṁsāram īhamāno māṁ parityajya thiṣalanīkīṁ gatavān tathā krīṣki rgālātiyāṁ gatavān tītaśca dālmātiyāṁ gatavān| (aiōn )
11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.
kevalo lūko mayā sārddhaṁ vidyate| tvaṁ mārkaṁ saṅginaṁ kṛtvāgaccha yataḥ sa paricaryyayā mamopakārī bhaviṣyati,
12 And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus.
tukhikañcāham iphiṣanagaraṁ preṣitavān|
13 The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring [with thee], and the books, [but] especially the parchments.
yad ācchādanavastraṁ troyānagare kārpasya sannidhau mayā nikṣiptaṁ tvamāgamanasamaye tat pustakāni ca viśeṣataścarmmagranthān ānaya|
14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:
kāṁsyakāraḥ sikandaro mama bahvaniṣṭaṁ kṛtavān prabhustasya karmmaṇāṁ samucitaphalaṁ dadātu|
15 Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.
tvamapi tasmāt sāvadhānāstiṣṭha yataḥ so'smākaṁ vākyānām atīva vipakṣo jātaḥ|
16 At my first answer no man stood with me, but all [men] forsook me: [I pray God] that it may not be laid to their charge.
mama prathamapratyuttarasamaye ko'pi mama sahāyo nābhavat sarvve māṁ paryyatyajan tān prati tasya doṣasya gaṇanā na bhūyāt;
17 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and [that] all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
kintu prabhu rmama sahāyo 'bhavat yathā ca mayā ghoṣaṇā sādhyeta bhinnajātīyāśca sarvve susaṁvādaṁ śṛṇuyustathā mahyaṁ śaktim adadāt tato 'haṁ siṁhasya mukhād uddhṛtaḥ|
18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve [me] unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom [be] glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
aparaṁ sarvvasmād duṣkarmmataḥ prabhu rmām uddhariṣyati nijasvargīyarājyaṁ netuṁ māṁ tārayiṣyati ca| tasya dhanyavādaḥ sadākālaṁ bhūyāt| āmen| (aiōn )
19 Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.
tvaṁ priṣkām ākkilam anīṣipharasya parijanāṁśca namaskuru|
20 Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.
irāstaḥ karinthanagare 'tiṣṭhat traphimaśca pīḍitatvāt milītanagare mayā vyahīyata|
21 Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.
tvaṁ hemantakālāt pūrvvam āgantuṁ yatasva| ubūlaḥ pūdi rlīnaḥ klaudiyā sarvve bhrātaraśca tvāṁ namaskurvvate|
22 The Lord Jesus Christ [be] with thy spirit. Grace [be] with you. Amen.
prabhu ryīśuḥ khrīṣṭastavātmanā saha bhūyāt| yuṣmāsvanugraho bhūyāt| āmen|
