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].
Lakini umanye huje insiku izyahumpelela hwahayibha ni nyakati ihome.
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].
Pipo abhantu bhahayiyigana bhene bhahayizigana ihela bhayiyitima, abhayilole abhizihaka bhesebha hubhitua apafi bhabho wasiokua na shukulani na waovu.
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.
Bhesebhali nu lugano ulwimandi bhesabhahwanza akhale ahinza na wowonti bhebhachonganisya bhebhali ni vurugu bhesebhaganile aminza.
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.
Bhahayibha bhasaliti bhakaidi abhahuyigane bhubho na agane ianasa kuliko hugane Ungulubhi.
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]),
Hunzi bhahumputa Ungulubhi, lakini bhahuzikhana nguvu zyakwe muyepusye na bhantu ibho.
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.
Pipo baadhi yabho bhalume bhebhahwinjila mufamilia zya bhantu na hubhasonshelezye abhashi ajinga ibhantu ibha bhamemile imbibhi. Bhebhalongozewa humbibhi ni nyonywoizwa kila aina.
7 [Even though] they are always [wanting to] learn new things, they are never able to recognize what is true.
Abhantu ibha bhamanyila insiku zyonti, lakini sebhabhwezizye hufishile uufahamu ulwilyoli.
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].
Ndeshe shila u Yane nu Yambre bhahimiliye shinyume na Musa. Hwi dala ili abhalimu ibha abhilenga bhahwimilila shinyume ni lyoli. Bhantu bhebhananjishiwilwe insibho zyabhobhesabhahwitihwa ahusiane na lwitiho.
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].
Lakini sebhayifiha apatali. Maana upumbavu wabho wayibhabhiha apazeru hubhantu bhonti ndeshe sheyahali hubha abhantu.
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].
Lakini awe ufwatile amafundisho gani umwenendo wani, amakusudi gani, ulwitiho lwani ubhuvumilivu wani ulugano lwani usitahilivu wani,
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.
amateso amaumivu na gegahanije hula hu Antiokia, Ikonio na Listra. Nagavumiliye amayimba. Ugosi ahanokuye hugonti.
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.
Bhonti bhebhahwanza akhale amaisha agahumpute Ungulubhi mwa Kristi Yesu bhabhateswe.
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.
Abhantu abhabhibhi na bhalenga bhabhazidi abhe bhabhomba mbibhi hani. Bhayabhapotosya abhanji abhene bhibho bhapotosizwe.
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]).
Lakini awe nyimilile humambo iga gewagamanye na hugitishe hudandamazu. Pipo uminye aje umanyiye hwananu.
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.
Uminye afume huwana waho wagaminye amazwi aminza iga gangaletela iheshima lyilwitiho hwa Yesu Kristi.
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.
Kila lyelyandihwilwe lipewilwe umwoyi nu Ngulubhi. Lifaa humafundisyo agifaida hwa shaushi na lekezisye amakosa na fundisye ihaki.
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.
Ili huhinje umuntu wa Ngulubhi abhe kamili abhe apewilwe inyenzo zyonti kwaajili ya bhombe imbombo inyinza.
