< 2 Timothy 2 >

1 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Messiah Jesus.
Naki wu vre mu ti gbengblen ni Alheri wa ahei ni mi Kristi Yesu.
2 The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same to faithful people, who will be able to teach others also.
Kpie bi wa 'u' woh ni me, ni mi shaidu gbugbu'u 'u' ka kaba zini ndi bi suron didima, biwa ba ya da tsro bari game.
3 You therefore must share in hardship, as a good soldier of Messiah Jesus.
Vu suron di sha yah ni me na ndi u' taku didima u Kristi yesu.
4 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
Indi 'u taku wa ahei ni bubu ku ana vu kpie loh ni kpama wa a ni you suron ni bana, dun ani son da ti kpe wa ani bi ni ndi wa ahan you ni bitaku'a.
5 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
Inde ndi wa asi vu yere ni roh, bana loh nze ni na, sei avu yere dede.
6 The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share of the crops.
A mla di ndi u' ron wa a tiyah du guci ri yah ma.
7 Consider what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in all things.
Rhi mere nitu kpei wa me si hla, naki Bachi ni noyi ganiwa ni mi ko gey.
8 Remember Jesus (the) Messiah, risen from the dead, a descendant of David, according to my gospel,
Rhi mere Yesu Kristi a rji ni grji Dauda, wa bazu rji nimi be'a. Ahi wayi hi ton du tre'a.
9 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God's word is not chained.
Na di misi ti yah har ba loh me ni sarka na ndi u yib, ama bana loh tre Rji na.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones' sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Messiah Jesus with everlasting glory. (aiōnios g166)
Naki me vu suron ni kpie ba wawu'u sabo ni ndi bi wa ba hlaba du baba me kpa ceto wa ahei ni mi Kristi Yesu ni daraja u' tutrun. (aiōnios g166)
11 This saying is faithful: "For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
Ikpei yi hi tre u' jajima, la “inde ki kuque ni 'u', i'kita me ki sun ni' u' la.
12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
Inde ki vu susroun, kiyi mulki ni 'u' la “inde ki tre di kina toh na, iwawu me ni tre di wawu na toh ta game na.
13 If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself."
Inde kita ki na hei ni jaji na, wawu hei ni jaji la wawu na iya tre di wawu na toh tu ma na im.
14 Remind them of these things, charging them in the presence of God, not to wrangle about words, to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.
Ta hla kpie bi yi ni bau' yarhan ni ba ni shishi, Rji ni tu vie u yieu; ana hei ni amfani na naki bi wa ba si woh, ana bi na. iftift ikpie bi didima baba Greek bi sen ba bla, ifqa. yarhan ni ba ni shishi Bachi ifqa if.
15 Do your best to present yourself approved by God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, properly handling the word of truth.
Ti iyakaci kokari me di jin tume ye ni Rji na wa ba kpayeim niwu na ndi 'u du wa ahei ni dalili u klu shan, wa ani tsro ba tre gyegyer.
16 But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness,
Na kpa yeim ni tre bi meme ma wa ani jin kpie wa ana bina nikon Rji.
17 and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
Tre ba ani kagon na lilo tio miji. Ni nimba Hymenaeus ba Filestus.
18 who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
Wa ba yi' ba shishi da don tre jaji. ba tre di tashem ni be'a a riga da kle ye, ba du gbarju bi jaji grji she me.
19 However God's firm foundation stands, having this seal, "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness."
Naki zi chi koh Rji krie gbagban don ahei ni hatimi “Bachi atoh bi wa ba hi bima, ndi wa ani you de Bachi, ka don kon meme'a.
20 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor, and some for dishonor.
Ni ko rigar, kpie ba hei ni mi, ana kpie zinariya ba azurfa ni kagrji na ni u kukro ba meme, bari he ni daraja bari ba ni yah.
21 If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use, prepared for every good work.
Inde di wa agla kpama rju ni mi raishi aminci wa hi kpie u didima ' Ba chu zi kan wa ndi u koh ni ti du ni 'u, naki bata tidu didima niu'
22 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Ka kpie bi wa wu tatiba ni ze me you ga, di hu adalci, bangaskiya ni son ni sun si baba bi you de Bachi ni mi dri u didima.
23 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
Na woh mie u bi ruru baba bi wa bana toh kpe na. U toh di ba grji senyeiu
24 The Lord's servant must not quarrel, but be gentle towards all, able to teach, patient,
Indi wa hi wu Bachi du na vie na. naki sei ka ti didi ni ndi wawu, wa ani ya tsro ni vu suron.
25 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
Ni mi tre didi ani tre bi wa basi vie. naki ko irji ni du ba tuba da toh janji.
26 and they may recover themselves out of the devil's snare, having been taken captive by him to his will.
Da chu tu ba rju nimi troko ibrji don igran Bachi avu ba ni vie ji hi ni mere Irji.
