< 2 Timothy 3 >

1 But know this: In the last days there will be difficult times.
Ṣùgbọ́n èyí ni kí o mọ̀ pé, ní ìkẹyìn ọjọ́ ìgbà ewu yóò dé.
2 For people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, and unholy.
Nítorí àwọn ènìyàn yóò jẹ́ olùfẹ́ ti ara wọn, olùfẹ́ owó, afọ́nnu, agbéraga, asọ̀rọ̀ búburú, aṣàìgbọràn sí òbí, aláìlọ́pẹ́, aláìmọ́.
3 They will be without natural affection, unable to reconcile, slanderers, without self-control, violent, not lovers of good.
Aláìnífẹ̀ẹ́, aláìlèdáríjì, abanijẹ́, aláìlè-kó-aràwọn-níjánu, òǹrorò, aláìnífẹ̀ẹ́ ohun rere,
4 They will be betrayers, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God.
oníkúpani, alágídí, ọlọ́kàn gíga, olùfẹ́ fàájì ju olùfẹ́ Ọlọ́run lọ.
5 They will have a shape of godliness, but they will deny its power. Turn away from these people.
Àwọn tí wọn ní àfarawé ìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run, ṣùgbọ́n tí wọn sẹ́ agbára rẹ̀; yẹra kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn wọ̀nyí pẹ̀lú.
6 For some of them are men who enter into households and captivate foolish women. These are women who are heaped up with sins and are led away by various desires.
Nítorí nínú irú èyí ni àwọn ti ń rákò wọ inú ilé, tí wọ́n sì ń di àwọn obìnrin aláìlọ́gbọ́n tí a di ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rù ní ìgbèkùn, tí a sì ń fi onírúurú ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ fà kiri.
7 These women are always learning, but they are never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Wọ́n ń fi ìgbà gbogbo kẹ́kọ̀ọ́, wọ́n kò sì lè dé ojú ìmọ̀ òtítọ́.
8 In the same way that Jannes and Jambres stood against Moses, these false teachers also stand against the truth. They are men corrupt in mind, and with regard to the faith they are proven to be false.
Ǹjẹ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí Janesi àti Jamberi ti kọ ojú ìjà sí Mose náà ni wọ́n kọjú ìjà sí òtítọ́: àwọn ènìyàn tí inú wọn díbàjẹ́, àwọn ẹni ìtanù ní ti ọ̀ràn ìgbàgbọ́.
9 But they will not advance very far. For their foolishness will be obvious to all, just like that of those men.
Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kì yóò lọ síwájú ju bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ, nítorí òmùgọ̀ wọn yóò farahàn fún gbogbo ènìyàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ti àwọn méjì yìí náà, ti yọrí si.
10 But as for you, you have followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience,
Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ti mọ ẹ̀kọ́ mi, ìgbésí ayé mi, ìpinnu, ìgbàgbọ́, ìpamọ́ra, ìfẹ́ sùúrù.
11 persecutions, sufferings, and what happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra. I endured persecutions. Out of them all, the Lord rescued me.
Inúnibíni, ìyà; àwọn ohun tí ó dé bá mi ní Antioku, ní Ikoniomu ní Lysra; àwọn inúnibíni tí mo faradà: Olúwa sì gbà mi kúrò nínú gbogbo wọn.
12 All those who want to live in a godly manner in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
Nítòótọ́, gbogbo àwọn tí ó fẹ́ máa gbé ìgbé ayé ìwà-bí-Ọlọ́run nínú Kristi Jesu yóò faradà inúnibíni.
13 Evil people and impostors will go from bad to worse, leading others and themselves astray.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ènìyàn búburú, àti àwọn ẹlẹ́tàn yóò máa burú síwájú sí i, wọn ó máa tannijẹ, a ó sì máa tàn wọ́n jẹ.
14 But as for you, remain in the things that you have learned and have firmly believed. You know from whom you have learned.
Ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ dúró nínú nǹkan wọ̀nyí tí ìwọ ti kọ́, tí a sì ti jẹ́ kí ojú rẹ dá ṣáṣá sí, kí ìwọ sì mọ̀ ọ̀dọ̀ ẹni tí ìwọ gbé kọ́ wọn.
15 You know that from childhood you have known the sacred writings. These are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
Àti pé láti ìgbà ọmọdé ni ìwọ ti mọ Ìwé Mímọ́, tí ó lè sọ ọ́ di ọlọ́gbọ́n sí ìgbàlà nípasẹ̀ ìgbàgbọ́ nínú Kristi Jesu.
16 All scripture has been inspired by God. It is profitable for doctrine, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness.
Gbogbo ìwé mímọ́ ni ó ní ìmísí Ọlọ́run tí ó sì ní èrè fún ẹ̀kọ́, fún ìbániwí, fún ìtọ́ni, fún ìkọ́ni tí ó wà nínú òdodo.
17 This is so that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
Kí ènìyàn Ọlọ́run lè pé, tí a ti múra sílẹ̀ pátápátá fun iṣẹ́ rere gbogbo.
