2 Timothy 2
1 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Messiah Yeshua.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo, wee mũrũ wakwa-rĩ, gĩa na hinya thĩinĩ wa wega wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ.
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.
Namo maũndũ marĩa waiguire ngĩaria mbere ya aira aingĩ-rĩ, mehokere andũ ehokeku arĩa ũũĩ atĩ no mahote kũruta andũ angĩ.
3 You therefore must share in hardship, as a good soldier of Messiah Yeshua.
Ũmĩrĩria gũthĩĩnĩka hamwe na ithuĩ ta ũrĩ mũthigari mwega wa Kristũ Jesũ.
4 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrutaga wĩra wa mũthigari ũngĩĩohania na maũndũ matarĩ ma ũũthigari: we endaga o gũkenia mũnene wake ũrĩa ũmwathaga.
5 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
Ũguo no taguo, mũndũ ũrĩa ũhanyũkaga mathako-inĩ ma mahenya ndangĩheo thũmbĩ ya ũhootani atathaakĩte kũringana na ũrĩa gwathanĩtwo.
6 The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share of the crops.
Ningĩ-rĩ, mũrĩmi ũrĩa wĩnogagia akĩrĩma mũgũnda nĩ we wagĩrĩirwo gũtuĩka wa mbere kwamũkĩra maciaro maguo.
7 Consider what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in all things.
Cũranagia maũndũ marĩa ndĩroiga, nĩgũkorwo Mwathani nĩarĩkũũhĩgagia maũndũ-inĩ macio mothe.
8 Remember Yeshua the Messiah, risen from the dead, a descendant of David, according to my Good News,
Atĩrĩrĩ, ririkanaga Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa wariũkirio akiuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ, na aarĩ wa rũciaro rwa Daudi, kũringana na Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, ũrĩa niĩ hunjagia.
9 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God's word is not chained.
Ũhoro ũcio nĩguo niĩ nyariiragĩrwo o nginya ngohwo na mĩnyororo ta ndĩ mũgeri ngero. No kiugo kĩa Ngai ti kĩohe.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones' sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Messiah Yeshua with everlasting glory. (aiōnios g166)
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, niĩ nĩnyũmagĩrĩria maũndũ mothe nĩ ũndũ wa arĩa aamũre, nĩgeetha o nao megĩĩre na ũhonokio ũrĩa ũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ, na magĩe na riiri wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
11 This saying is faithful: "For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
Ũhoro ũyũ nĩ wa kwĩhokeka, atĩrĩ: Angĩkorwo nĩtwakuire hamwe nake-rĩ, o na gũtũũra nĩtũgaatũũra muoyo hamwe nake;
12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
na tũngĩkirĩrĩria-rĩ, o na gũthamaka nĩtũgaathamaka hamwe nake. No tũngĩmũkaana-rĩ, o nake nĩagatũkaana;
13 If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself."
na tũngĩaga kwĩhokeka, we egũtũũra arĩ o mwĩhokeku, nĩgũkorwo we ndangĩhota gwĩkaana.
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.
Ririkanagia andũ maũndũ macio. Makaanagie ũrĩ mbere ya Ngai nĩguo matige gũkararanĩria ndeto itarĩ kĩene; ndeto icio itirĩ kĩguni, no gũthũkia ithũkagia arĩa maciiguaga.
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.
Geria mũno wĩonanagie harĩ Ngai wĩ mwĩtĩkĩrĩku, na wĩ mũruti-wĩra ũtarĩ ũndũ ũngĩmũconora, na ũrutanage ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma ũrũngĩrĩirie.
16 But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness,
Ehagĩrĩra mĩario ĩtarĩ ya gwĩtigĩra Ngai, tondũ arĩa mekenagia na ndeto icio makĩragĩrĩria kwaga gwĩtigĩra Ngai.
17 and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
Ũrutani wao ũtheaga ta kĩronda kĩa ndĩĩra. Amwe ao nĩ Humenayo, na Fileto,
18 who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
arĩa maturuurĩte na magatiga ũhoro wa ma. Moigaga atĩ ũhoro wa kũriũka nĩũrĩkĩtie kũhĩtũka, na nĩ mathũkĩtie wĩtĩkio wa andũ amwe.
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."
No rĩrĩ, mũthingi ũrĩa mũrũmu wa Ngai nĩwĩhaandĩte wega naguo wĩkĩrĩtwo rũũri na ciugo ici: “Mwathani nĩoĩ andũ arĩa marĩ ake,” na ningĩ atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa wothe uumbũraga rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani no nginya agarũrũke atigane na waganu.”
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.
Thĩinĩ wa nyũmba yothe nene-rĩ, to indo cia thahabu na betha ikoragwo kuo ciiki, no nĩ kũrĩ indo cia mĩtĩ na cia rĩũmba; imwe nĩ cia wĩra ũrĩa mũtĩĩe, na imwe nĩ cia wĩra ũrĩa ũtangĩtĩĩka.
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.
Mũndũ angĩĩtheria kuuma kũrĩ maũndũ macio matangĩtĩĩka, no atuĩke ta kĩndũ gĩa kũruta wĩra wa gĩtĩĩo, kĩndũ gĩtherie, kĩrĩa kĩagĩrĩire Mwathi wa nyũmba ĩyo na kĩhaarĩirio gĩa kũrutaga wĩra o wothe mwega.
22 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Na rĩrĩ, ũragĩra merirĩria mooru ma wĩthĩ, na ũthingatage ũthingu, na wĩtĩkio, na wendani, na thayũ, mũrĩ hamwe na arĩa makayagĩra Mwathani marĩ na ngoro theru.
23 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
Reganaga na ngarari cia ũrimũ na cia ũkĩĩgu, tondũ nĩũĩ irehage ngũĩ.
24 The Lord's servant must not quarrel, but be gentle towards all, able to teach, patient,
Nayo ndungata ya Ngai ndĩagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũtuĩka ya ngũĩ; handũ ha ũguo, yagĩrĩirwo nĩgũtuĩka ya gũtuga mũndũ o wothe, na ĩrĩ mũndũ wĩ na ũhoti wa kũrutana, na ĩrĩ mũndũ mũkirĩrĩria.
25 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
Ningĩ arutage arĩa mamũkararagia ahooreire, arĩ na mwĩhoko atĩ Ngai no atũme merire, nĩguo mamenye ũhoro wa ma,
26 and they may recover themselves out of the devil's snare, having been taken captive by him to his will.
na atĩ matuĩke a gwĩcookera, na meteithũkie mũtego-inĩ wa mũcukani ũrĩa ũmanyiitĩte mĩgwate nĩguo mekage ũrĩa ekwenda.
