< 2 Timothy 3 >
1 [You need to] realize that during the last days [MTY] [before Christ returns, evil people will make] it difficult [for believers to behave as they should].
Apan kini hibalo-i: sa mga ulahi nga mga adlaw moabot ang mga peligro nga mga panahon.
2 This is because [such evil] people will be habitually loving themselves and loving money. They will habitually boast [about themselves], they will be proud, and will often say bad things [about others. They] will disobey [their] parents. They will not be thankful, nor will they respect [anything that is good].
Kay ang mga tawo higugmaon nila ang ilang mga kaugalingon, mahigugmaon sila sa kwarta, hambogero, mapahitas-on, tigpasipala, masinupakon sa mga ginikanan, dili mapasalamaton, dili balaan,
3 They will not [even] love their own family, nor agree with [anybody] (OR, [they never forgive anyone]). They will tell lies about people. They will not control what they say and do, nor allow anyone to control them. They will not love [anything that is] good.
wala sa kinaiyanhon nga pagbati, walay kaluoy, madinauton, walay pagpugong sa kaugalingon, bayolente, dili mahigugma-on sa maayo,
4 They will (betray others/hand others over to their enemies) and act foolishly. They will be overly/very proud of themselves, and they will love to please themselves instead of loving God.
mga traydor, walay pagmatngon, magarboso, mahigugma-on sa lawasnon nga kalipay imbes mahigugma-on sa Dios.
5 [And, although they will] pretend that they worship God, they will not let [God’s Spirit] work powerfully [in their lives]. Do not associate with such people (OR, Do not let such people join [your congregation]),
Aduna silay porma nga pagkadiosnon, apan gilimod nila ang gahum niini. Talikdi kini nga mga tao.
6 because some such [people, even now], subtly/deceivingly persuade foolish women to let them come into their houses, and then they deceive those women [so that they control what those women think. These women] have been burdened with sins {have sinned very much} and they have been led to do {they do} the many [evil] things that they strongly desire to do.
Kay ang uban niining mga tawhana mosulod sa mga panimalay ug danihon ang mga babaye nga luya sa espirituhanong bahin nga napuno sa mga kasal-anan hinungdan nga nadani sila sa lainlaing tinguha.
7 [Even though] they are always [wanting to] learn new things, they are never able to recognize what is true.
Kini nga mga babaye kanunay nga mosulay nga makakat-on ug bag-ong mga butang, apan dili gyud sila makahibalo sa kamatuoran.
8 Just like Jannes and Jambres [long ago] very much opposed Moses, so also some [people] now oppose the true [message. Those] people think only what is evil. God rejects them [because they do not] believe [what is true].
Sa sama nga pamaagi nga si Jannes ug si Jambres mikontra kang Moises, kini nga mga bakakon nga magtutudlo mitindog sad batok sa kamatuoran. Nadaut ang ilang hunahuna ug ang ilang pagtuo dili mapamatud-an.
9 Nevertheless, they will not continue to succeed, because most [HYP] people will understand clearly that such people are foolish, just like people also realized [clearly that Jannes and Jambres were foolish].
Apan dili gyud sila makauswag pag-ayo, kay ang ilang pagkabuang makita man sa tanan, sama sa pagkabuang adtong duha ka mga lalaki.
10 But as for yourself, you have fully known what I have taught. You have known [and imitated] the way in which I conducted my life, [and] what I have been trying to do. [You have] trusted [God as] I have. You have been patient as I have been. [You have] loved people [as] I have, and [you have] endured [as you suffered like] I have [suffered].
Apan ikaw misunod sa akong mga pagtulon-an, pamatasan, tumong, pagtuo, taas nga pag-antos, gugma, pailob,
11 [You know how I endured many times when people] harmed me. [They] caused me to suffer at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra [cities]. [But although they caused me to suffer], I endured it; and every time [they] did those things to me, the Lord rescued me.
mga paglutos, mga pag-antos, ug kung unsa ang nahitabo kanako sa Antioquia, sa Iconio ug sa Listra. Giantos nako kadtong mga paglutos, ug sa tanan niini, ang Ginoo nagluwas kanako.
12 (Indeed/You know that), for us [(inc)] who want to live (in a [godly manner/] a [manner that pleases God]), we will always be persecuted {there will always be people who will cause us to suffer} because we [have a close relationship with] Christ Jesus.
Ang tanan nga gusto nga magkinabuhi sa diosnon nga pamaagi diha kang Cristo Jesus lutuson gyud.
13 Evil people (OR, And those) who deceive other people will (get worse/teach things that are more and more wrong). [Specifically, they will] deceive other people, and [those who hear them will] deceive others.
Ang mga dautan ug mga impostor mosamot gyud, samtang panguluhan nila ang uban nga masalaag sama nga sila mismo nahisalaag.
14 But you, in contrast, must continue [to believe] what you have learned and (been assured of/firmly believe). [I know that you are confident/sure that it is true because] you know that you have learned it from all [of us who taught you] ([God’s truth/what is right]).
Apan ikaw, magpadayon ka sa imong nakat-onan ug gituohan pag-ayo, kay nakahibalo ikaw kung kang kinsa nimo kini nakat-onan.
15 From [the time when you were] a child you have known the holy writings/Scriptures. [You now know that] they enabled you to become wise so that God saved you because of your believing in Christ Jesus.
Nakahibalo ka nga gikan pa sa imong pagkabata nahibaw-an na nimo ang balaan nga mga kasulatan nga naghimo kanimong maalamon sa kaluwasan pinaagi sa pagtuo diha kang Cristo Jesus.
16 God (inspired/put into men’s minds) everything [that is written] in the Scriptures {they [wrote] in the holy writings}, and those writings are all useful to teach [us what is true], to cause us to know [when we are] wrong and then (to correct us/to show us what we have done that is wrong), and to train/teach us to do what is right.
Ang tanan nga Kasulatan dinasig sa Dios ug kini mapuslanon sa doktrina, sa pagtuo, sa paghusto, ug sa pagbansay sa pagkamatarong
17 What [is written] {they wrote} is useful to help us who [serve] God to be ready/prepared to do all that we should do. By means of it, we are equipped {God gives us what we need} in order to do every [kind of] good deeds.
aron nga ang tawo sa Dios mahimong takos, sangkap sa mga maayo nga buhat.
