2 Timothy 2

1 You, therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that [is] in Christ Jesus,

συ ουν τεκνον μου ενδυναμου εν τη χαριτι τη εν χριστω ιησου

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;

και α ηκουσας παρ εμου δια πολλων μαρτυρων ταυτα παραθου πιστοις ανθρωποις οιτινες ικανοι εσονται και ετερους διδαξαι

3 you, therefore, suffer evil as a good soldier of Jesus Christ;

συγκακοπαθησον ως καλος στρατιωτης χριστου ιησου

4 no one serving as a soldier entangles himself with the affairs of life, that he may please him who enlisted him;

ουδεις στρατευομενος εμπλεκεται ταις του βιου πραγματειαις ινα τω στρατολογησαντι αρεση

5 and if anyone also may strive, he is not crowned, except he may strive lawfully;

εαν δε και αθλη τις ου στεφανουται εαν μη νομιμως αθληση

6 it is first necessary [for] the laboring farmer to partake of the fruits;

τον κοπιωντα γεωργον δει πρωτον των καρπων μεταλαμβανειν

7 be considering what things I say, for the LORD gives to you understanding in all things.

νοει ο λεγω δωσει γαρ σοι ο κυριος συνεσιν εν πασιν

8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised out of the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news,

μνημονευε ιησουν χριστον εγηγερμενον εκ νεκρων εκ σπερματος δαυιδ κατα το ευαγγελιον μου

9 in which I suffer evil—to bonds, as an evildoer, but the word of God has not been bound;

εν ω κακοπαθω μεχρι δεσμων ως κακουργος αλλα ο λογος του θεου ου δεδεται

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)

δια τουτο παντα υπομενω δια τους εκλεκτους ινα και αυτοι σωτηριας τυχωσιν της εν χριστω ιησου μετα δοξης αιωνιου (aiōnios g166)

11 The word [is] steadfast: For if we died together—we will also live together;

πιστος ο λογος ει γαρ συναπεθανομεν και συζησομεν

12 if we endure together—we will also reign together; if we deny [Him], He will also deny us;

ει υπομενομεν και συμβασιλευσομεν ει αρνησομεθα κακεινος αρνησεται ημας

13 if we are not steadfast, He remains steadfast; He is not able to deny Himself.

ει απιστουμεν εκεινος πιστος μενει αρνησασθαι γαρ εαυτον ου δυναται

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;

ταυτα υπομιμνησκε διαμαρτυρομενος ενωπιον του θεου μη λογομαχειν επ ουδεν χρησιμον επι καταστροφη των ακουοντων

15 be diligent to present yourself approved to God—a workman not ashamed, straightly cutting the word of truth;

σπουδασον σεαυτον δοκιμον παραστησαι τω θεω εργατην ανεπαισχυντον ορθοτομουντα τον λογον της αληθειας

16 and stand aloof from the profane vain talkings, for they will advance to more impiety,

τας δε βεβηλους κενοφωνιας περιιστασο επι πλειον γαρ προκοψουσιν ασεβειας

17 and their word will have pasture as a gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus,

και ο λογος αυτων ως γαγγραινα νομην εξει ων εστιν υμεναιος και φιλητος

18 who swerved concerning the truth, saying the resurrection to have already been, and overthrows the faith of some;

οιτινες περι την αληθειαν ηστοχησαν λεγοντες {VAR2: [την] } αναστασιν ηδη γεγονεναι και ανατρεπουσιν την τινων πιστιν

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.”

ο μεντοι στερεος θεμελιος του θεου εστηκεν εχων την σφραγιδα ταυτην εγνω κυριος τους οντας αυτου και αποστητω απο αδικιας πας ο ονομαζων το ονομα κυριου

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:

εν μεγαλη δε οικια ουκ εστιν μονον σκευη χρυσα και αργυρα αλλα και ξυλινα και οστρακινα και α μεν εις τιμην α δε εις ατιμιαν

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;

εαν ουν τις εκκαθαρη εαυτον απο τουτων εσται σκευος εις τιμην ηγιασμενον ευχρηστον τω δεσποτη εις παν εργον αγαθον ητοιμασμενον

22 and flee the youthful lusts, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those calling on the LORD out of a pure heart;

τας δε νεωτερικας επιθυμιας φευγε διωκε δε δικαιοσυνην πιστιν αγαπην ειρηνην μετα των επικαλουμενων τον κυριον εκ καθαρας καρδιας

23 and be avoiding the foolish and uninstructed questions, having known that they beget strife,

τας δε μωρας και απαιδευτους ζητησεις παραιτου ειδως οτι γεννωσιν μαχας

24 and a servant of the LORD must not quarrel, but to be gentle to all, apt to teach, patient under evil,

δουλον δε κυριου ου δει μαχεσθαι αλλα ηπιον ειναι προς παντας διδακτικον ανεξικακον

25 instructing those opposing in meekness—if perhaps God may give to them conversion to an acknowledging of the truth,

εν πραυτητι παιδευοντα τους αντιδιατιθεμενους μηποτε δωη αυτοις ο θεος μετανοιαν εις επιγνωσιν αληθειας

26 and they may awake out of the Devil’s snare, having been caught by him at his will.

και ανανηψωσιν εκ της του διαβολου παγιδος εζωγρημενοι υπ αυτου εις το εκεινου θελημα
