< 2 Timothy 2 >

1 You, therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that [is] in Christ Jesus,
ܐܢܬ ܗܟܝܠ ܒܪܝ ܐܬܚܝܠ ܒܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ
2 and the things that you heard from me through many witnesses, be committing these things to steadfast men, who will also be sufficient to teach others;
ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܡܥܬ ܡܢܝ ܒܝܕ ܤܗܕܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܢܝܢ ܐܓܥܠ ܠܐܢܫܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܛܝܐ ܒܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܐܦ ܠܐܚܪܢܐ ܠܡܠܦܘ
3 you, therefore, suffer evil as a good soldier of Jesus Christ;
ܘܤܝܒܪ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܦܠܚܐ ܛܒܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ
4 no one serving as a soldier entangles himself with the affairs of life, that he may please him who enlisted him;
ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܦܠܚ ܘܡܬܦܟܪ ܒܨܒܘܬܐ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܕܢܫܦܪ ܠܗܘ ܡܢ ܕܓܒܝܗܝ
5 and if anyone also may strive, he is not crowned, except he may strive lawfully;
ܘܐܢ ܡܬܟܬܫ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܡܬܟܠܠ ܐܢ ܒܢܡܘܤܗ ܠܐ ܡܬܟܬܫ
6 it is first necessary [for] the laboring farmer to partake of the fruits;
ܠܐܟܪܐ ܕܠܐܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܗ ܕܩܕܡܐ ܡܢ ܦܐܪܘܗܝ ܢܤܬܝܒܪ
7 be considering what things I say, for the LORD gives to you understanding in all things.
ܐܤܬܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܢܬܠ ܠܟ ܡܪܢ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܒܟܠ ܡܕܡ
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised out of the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news,
ܐܬܕܟܪ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܩܡ ܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܙܪܥܐ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܐܝܟ ܐܘܢܓܠܝܘܢ ܕܝܠܝ
9 in which I suffer evil—to bonds, as an evildoer, but the word of God has not been bound;
ܕܒܗ ܤܒܠ ܐܢܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܐܤܘܪܐ ܐܝܟ ܥܒܕ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܠܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܐܤܝܪܐ
10 because of this I endure all things, because of the chosen ones, that they also may obtain salvation that [is] in Christ Jesus, with perpetual glory. (aiōnios g166)
ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܤܝܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܓܒܝܐ ܕܐܦ ܗܢܘܢ ܢܫܟܚܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܕܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܥܡ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ (aiōnios g166)
11 The word [is] steadfast: For if we died together—we will also live together;
ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܡܝܬܢ ܥܡܗ ܐܦ ܥܡܗ ܢܚܐ
12 if we endure together—we will also reign together; if we deny [Him], He will also deny us;
ܘܐܢ ܢܤܝܒܪ ܐܦ ܢܡܠܟ ܥܡܗ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܢܟܦܘܪ ܒܗ ܐܦ ܗܘ ܢܟܦܘܪ ܒܢ
13 if we are not steadfast, He remains steadfast; He is not able to deny Himself.
ܘܐܢ ܠܐ ܢܗܝܡܢ ܒܗ ܗܘ ܒܗܝܡܢܘܬܗ ܡܩܘܐ ܕܢܟܦܘܪ ܓܝܪ ܒܢܦܫܗ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ
14 Remind [them] of these things, testifying fully before the LORD—not to strive about words to nothing profitable, but to the subversion of those hearing;
ܗܠܝܢ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܥܗܕ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܡܤܗܕ ܩܕܡ ܡܪܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܡܬܚܪܝܢ ܒܡܠܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܘܬܪܢ ܠܤܘܚܦܐ ܕܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܡܥܝܢ ܠܗܝܢ
15 be diligent to present yourself approved to God—a workman not ashamed, straightly cutting the word of truth;
ܘܢܬܒܛܠ ܠܟ ܕܬܩܝܡ ܢܦܫܟ ܓܡܝܪܐܝܬ ܩܕܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܦܠܚܐ ܕܠܐ ܒܗܬܬܐ ܕܡܟܪܙ ܬܪܝܨܐܝܬ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ
16 and stand aloof from the profane vain talkings, for they will advance to more impiety,
ܘܡܢ ܡܠܐ ܤܪܝܩܬܐ ܕܠܝܬ ܒܗܝܢ ܚܫܚܘ ܐܫܬܐܠ ܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܢܘܤܦܘܢ ܥܠ ܪܘܫܥܗܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܥܢܝܢ ܒܗܝܢ
17 and their word will have pasture as a gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus,
ܘܡܠܬܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܚܠܕܝܬܐ ܢܘܡܐ ܬܐܚܘܕ ܒܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܕܝܢ ܚܕ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܗܘܡܢܐܘܤ ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܦܝܠܛܘܤ
18 who swerved concerning the truth, saying the resurrection to have already been, and overthrows the faith of some;
ܗܠܝܢ ܕܛܥܘ ܡܢ ܫܪܪܐ ܟܕ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܩܝܡܬܐ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܗ ܘܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܡܗܦܟܝܢ
19 sure, nevertheless, the foundation of God has stood, having this seal: “The LORD has known those who are His,” and, “Let him depart from unrighteousness—everyone who is naming the Name of Christ.”
ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܫܪܝܪܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܩܝܡܐ ܗܝ ܘܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܬܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܘܝܕܥ ܡܪܝܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܝܠܗ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܢܦܪܘܩ ܡܢ ܥܘܠܐ ܟܠ ܕܩܪܐ ܠܫܡܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ
20 And in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth, and some to honor, and some to dishonor:
ܒܒܝܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܪܒܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܐܢܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܐܘ ܕܤܐܡܐ ܐܝܬ ܒܗ ܐܠܐ ܐܦ ܕܩܝܤܐ ܐܦ ܕܦܚܪܐ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܠܐܝܩܪܐ ܘܡܢܗܘܢ ܠܨܥܪܐ
21 if, then, anyone may cleanse himself from these, he will be a vessel to honor, sanctified and profitable to the master—having been prepared to every good work;
ܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܗܟܝܠ ܢܕܟܐ ܢܦܫܗ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܗܘܐ ܡܐܢܐ ܕܟܝܐ ܠܐܝܩܪܐ ܕܥܗܢ ܠܚܘܫܚܐ ܕܡܪܗ ܘܡܛܝܒ ܠܟܠ ܥܒܕ ܛܒ
22 and flee the youthful lusts, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those calling on the LORD out of a pure heart;
ܡܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܪܓܝܓܬܐ ܕܛܠܝܘܬܐ ܥܪܘܩ ܘܗܪܛ ܒܬܪ ܟܐܢܘܬܐ ܘܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܚܘܒܐ ܘܫܠܡܐ ܥܡ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܩܪܝܢ ܠܡܪܢ ܒܠܒܐ ܕܟܝܐ
23 and be avoiding the foolish and uninstructed questions, having known that they beget strife,
ܚܪܝܢܐ ܤܟܠܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܠܐ ܡܪܕܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܫܬܐܠ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܬ ܓܝܪ ܕܬܟܬܘܫܐ ܡܘܠܕܝܢ
24 and a servant of the LORD must not quarrel, but to be gentle to all, apt to teach, patient under evil,
ܥܒܕܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܡܪܢ ܠܐ ܚܝܒ ܠܡܬܟܬܫܘ ܐܠܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܡܟܝܟ ܠܘܬ ܟܠܢܫ ܘܡܠܦܢ ܘܢܓܝܪܐ ܪܘܚܗ
25 instructing those opposing in meekness—if perhaps God may give to them conversion to an acknowledging of the truth,
ܕܢܗܘܐ ܪܕܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܬܚܪܝܢ ܠܩܘܒܠܗ ܒܡܟܝܟܘܬܐ ܕܠܡܐ ܢܬܠ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܬܝܒܘܬܐ ܘܢܕܥܘܢ ܫܪܪܐ
26 and they may awake out of the Devil’s snare, having been caught by him at his will.
ܘܢܥܗܕܘܢ ܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܘܢܦܪܩܘܢ ܡܢ ܦܚܗ ܕܤܛܢܐ ܕܒܗ ܐܬܬܨܝܕܘ ܠܨܒܝܢܗ
