2 Timothy 2
1 You then, my child, must be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
Henu, bhebhe mwanabhangu, upelibhwayi nghofu mu neema jha jhijhele mugati mwa Yesu Kristu.
2 All that you have been taught by me in the hearing of many witnesses, you must hand on to trusty men who shall themselves, in turn, be competent to instruct others also.
Ni mambo gha ughap'eliki kwa nene miongoni mwa mashahidi bhamehele, ughakabisiajhi kwa bhanu bhaaminifu ambabho bhibhwesya kubhafundisya bhamana kabhele.
3 As a good soldier of Christ Jesus accept your share of suffering.
malombosi pamonga ni nene, kama askari mwema ghwa Kristu Yesu.
4 Every one who serves as a soldier keeps himself from becoming entangled in the world's business--so that he may satisfy the officer who enlisted him.
Ajhelepi askari jhaitumikila wakati bhobhuobhu ikwishughulisya ni mbombo sya kawaida sya maisha agha, ili kwamba ampendesiajhi ofisa ghwa muene mbaha.
5 And if any one takes part in an athletic contest, he gets no prize unless he obeys the rules.
Kabhele kama munu isindana kwa n'jumba lubhelu, ibetalepikupelibhwa litaji kama ibetakusindana kwa kukesya kanuni.
6 The harvestman who labours in the field must be the first to get a share of the crop.
Ndo muhimu kujha n'kulima jha ajhe ni bidii ajhiaghe ghwa kuanza kukabha mgao bhwa mazao gha muene.
7 Mark well what I am saying: the Lord will give you discernment in everything.
Ukinong'oniajhi kya nikujobhili, kwandabha Bwana ibetakupela bhuelebhwa mu mambo ghoha.
8 Never forget that Jesus Christ has risen from among the dead and is a descendant of David, as is declared in the Good News which I preach.
Mun'kombhokayi Yesu Kristu kuhoma uzao bhwa Daudi, ambajhe afumulibhu kuhoma kwa bhafu. Ejhe ndo kul'engana ni bhujumbe bhuangu bhwa injili,
9 For preaching the Good News I suffer, and am even put in chains, as if I were a criminal: yet the word of God is not imprisoned.
ambabho kwa ndabha jha obhu nitesibhwa hata kukhongibhwa minyororo kama mharifu. Lakini lilobhi lya K'yara likongibhwa lepi kwa minyororo.
10 For this reason I endure all things for the sake of God's own people; so that they also may obtain salvation--even the salvation which is in Christ Jesus--and with it eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
Henu, nisindamale mambo ghoha agha kwandabha jha bhala ambabho K'yara abhasalili tayari, ili kwamba nabhene bhaukabhayi bhwokovu bhwabhujhele kwa Kristu Yesu pamonga ni bhutukufu bhwa milele. (aiōnios g166)
11 Faithful is the saying: "If we died with Him, we shall also live with Him;
Bhujobhi obho ndo bhwa kuaminika: “Ikajhiajhi tufuili pamonga ni muene, tubetakutama pamonga ni muene kabhele,
12 "If we patiently endure pain, we shall also share His Kingship; "If we disown Him, He will also disown us;
kama tusindamele, twibetakutabhwala pamonga ni muene kabhele, kama twibetakumbela muene, ni muene kabhele ibetakutubela tete.
13 "And even if our faith fails, He remains true--He cannot prove false to Himself."
kama twibetalepi kujha bhaaminifu, muene ibetakujha muaminifu, ndabha ibhwesya lepi kwibela muene.”
14 Bring all this to men's remembrances, solemnly charging them in the presence of God not to waste time in wrangling about mere words, a course which is altogether unprofitable and tends only to the ruin of the hearers.
Jhendelelajhi kubhakhombosya panani pa matendo agha. Bhaonyayi palongolo pa K'yara bhalekayi kubishana kuhusu malobhi. Kwandabha ghajhelepi manufaa kulijambo e'le. Kutokana ni e'le bhujhele bhuharibifu mbaha nesu kwa bhala bhabhipelekesya.
15 Earnestly seek to commend yourself to God as a servant who, because of his straightforward dealing with the word of truth, has no reason to feel any shame.
Bhombajhi bidii kulasya kujha bhakujhedekili kwa K'yara kama mbomba mbombo jhaadulili sababu jha kulaumibhwa. Mulitumilajhi lilobhi lya bhukweli kwa usahihi.
16 But from irreligious and frivolous talk hold aloof, for those who indulge in it will proceed from bad to worse in impiety,
Mukijhepusiajhi ni majadilianu gha kidunia, ambagho ghilongosya kwa zaidi ni zaidi jha uasi.
17 and their teaching will spread like a running sore. Hymenaeus and Philetus are men of that stamp.
Majadiliano gha bhene ghibetakusambala kama donda ndugu. Miongoni mwa bhene ndo Himenayo ni Fileto.
18 In the matter of the truth they have gone astray, saying that the Resurrection is already past, and so they are overthrowing the faith of some.
Abha ndo bhanu bhabhaudulili bhukweli. Bhijobha kujha bhufufuo tayari bhumali kuhoma. Bhip'endula imani jha baadhi jha bhanu.
19 Yet God's solid foundation stands unmoved, bearing this inscription, "The Lord knows those who really belong to Him." And this also, "Let every one who names the Name of the Lord renounce all wickedness."
Hata naha, misingi imara jha K'yara jhijhema, bhabhajhe ni bhuandishi obho, “Bwana abhamanyili bhabhajhele bha muene, ni khila jha alitajeghe lihina lya Bwana ndo lazima akitengaghe ni bhudhalimu.”
20 Now in a great house there are not only articles of gold and silver, but also others of wood and of earthenware; and some are for specially honourable, and others for common use.
Munyumba jha kitajiri, sio kujha fijhele fenu fya dhahabu ni shaba tu. Kabhele fijhele fenu fya mab'eh'e ni bhudopi. Baadhi jha efe ndo kwa ndabha jha matumizi gha heshima ni baadhi jhiake ndo kwa matumizi ghaghabelikujha gha litengu.
21 If therefore a man keeps himself clear of these latter, he himself will be for specially honourable use, consecrated, fit for the Master's service, and fully equipped for every good work.
Ikajhelayi munu ibetakwitakasya muene kuhoma mu matumizi ghaghabeli kujha gha heshima, muene ndo khenu kya kilondeka kutengulibhwa. Atengibhu maalumu, jhaajheni manufaa kwa Bwana, na aandalibhu kwa khila lihengu linofu.
22 Keep a strong curb, however, on your youthful cravings; and strive for integrity, good faith, love, peace, in company with all who pray to the Lord with pure hearts.
Musikhembelayi tamaa sya bhusongolo. Ukakesiajhi haki, imani, luganu, ni amani pamonga ni bhala bhabhakan'kuta Bwana kwa muoyo bhunofu.
23 But avoid foolish discussions with ignorant men, knowing--as you do--that these lead to quarrels;
Lakini ubelayi bhupumbafu ni maswala gha kipuuzi. Kwani umanyili jha kujha wihogola ngondo.
24 and a bondservant of the Lord must not quarrel, but must be inoffensive towards all men, a skilful teacher, and patient under wrongs.
M'tumishi ghwa Bwana ilondeka lepi kukomana, badala jhiake ilondeka kujha mololo kwa bhanu bhoha, jhaibhwesya kumanyisya, ni jhaisindamala.
25 He must speak in a gentle tone when correcting the errors of opponents, in the hope that God will at last give them repentance, for them to come to a full knowledge of the truth
Na lazima abhaelimisiajhi kwa bhololo bhala bhabhakamp'enga yamkini K'yara abhwesiajhi kubhap'ela toba kwa kujhimanya kweli.
26 and recover sober-mindedness and freedom from the Devil's snare, though they are now entrapped by him to do his will.
Bhabhwesiajhi kukabha ufahamu kabhele ni kujhepuka n'teghu ghwa syetani, baada jha kujha bhatekibhu ni muene kwa ndabha jha mapenzi gha muene.
