2 Timothy 3
1 And this know thou, that in the last days there shall come perilous times,
Kae saa asɛm yi. Nna a edi akyiri no, mmere no mu bɛyɛ den.
2 for men shall be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, evil-speakers, to parents disobedient, unthankful, unkind,
Nnipa bi bɛyɛ pɛsɛmenkominya, aniberefo, ahohiahiafo ne ahantanfo; wɔbɛyɛ abususɛnkafo, asoɔdenfo wɔ wɔn awofo so; wɔbɛyɛ bonniayɛ na wɔrempɛ nyamesom nso,
3 without natural affection, implacable, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, not lovers of those who are good,
wɔbɛyɛ atirimɔdenfo, wɔrenhu mmɔbɔ, wɔbɛyɛ nnipa dinsɛefo basabasa ne abufuwfafo, wɔbɛtan wɔn mfɛfo a wɔyɛ nnipa pa no,
4 traitors, heady, lofty, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God,
wɔbɛyɛ afatwafo, anuɔdenfo, wɔn a wɔhoran; wɔbɛpɛ anigye sen sɛ wɔdɔ Onyankopɔn.
5 having a form of piety, and its power having denied; and from these be turning away,
Wɔbɛyɛ aniani asomfo a wɔbɛpo tumi a ɛwɔ ɔsom no mu no. Twe wo ho fi saa nnipa no ho.
6 for of these there are those coming into the houses and leading captive the silly women, laden with sins, led away with desires manifold,
Wɔn mu bi kɔ afi mu kɔhyɛ mmea a wɔn bɔne ama wodi fɔ na akɔnnɔ ahorow bebree hyɛ wɔn so no so;
7 always learning, and never to a knowledge of truth able to come,
saa mmea no yɛ nnipa a wɔpɛ sɛ wosua nneɛma foforo, nanso wonhu nokware no akyi kwan.
8 and, even as Jannes and Jambres stood against Moses, so also these do stand against the truth, men corrupted in mind, disapproved concerning the faith;
Sɛnea Yan ne Yambre ne Mose dii asi no, saa ara nso na saa nnipa yi ne nokware di asi. Wɔyɛ nnipa a wɔn adwene asɛe na wonsi hwee wɔ gyidi mu.
9 but they shall not advance any further, for their folly shall be manifest to all, as theirs also did become.
Wonnya nkɔso biara efisɛ obiara behu wɔn kwasea.
10 And thou — thou hast followed after my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance,
Na wo de, woadi me nkyerɛkyerɛ, me suban ne me botae so. Woahu gyidi a mewɔ, me boasetɔ, me dɔ,
11 the persecutions, the afflictions, that befell me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of all the Lord did deliver me,
taa a wɔtaa me ne mʼamanehunu nyinaa. Wunim nsɛm a ɛtotoo me wɔ Antiokia, Ikoniom ne Listra, ne ɔtaa dennen a mitumi gyinaa ano no. Nanso Awurade yii me fii ne nyinaa mu.
12 and all also who will to live piously in Christ Jesus shall be persecuted,
Wɔn a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔde onyamesom pa tena ase wɔ Kristo Yesu mu nyinaa no, wɔbɛtaa wɔn,
13 and evil men and impostors shall advance to the worse, leading astray and being led astray.
nanso nnipa bɔne bɛkɔ so asɛe daa na wɔadaadaa afoforo ne wɔn ankasa wɔn ho.
14 And thou — be remaining in the things which thou didst learn and wast entrusted with, having known from whom thou didst learn,
Nanso wo de, kɔ so tena ase nokware mu sɛnea wɔkyerɛɛ wo no, na gye di yiye. Wunim wɔn a wusua fii wɔn nkyɛn,
15 and because from a babe the Holy Writings thou hast known, which are able to make thee wise — to salvation, through faith that [is] in Christ Jesus;
na wokae nso sɛ efi wo mmofraase na woahu Kyerɛwsɛm no a etumi ma wuhu nyansa, na ɛma wunya gyidi wɔ Kristo Yesu mu, na egye wo nkwa.
16 every Writing [is] God-breathed, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction that [is] in righteousness,
Kyerɛwsɛm nyinaa fi Onyankopɔn home mu, na eye ma nkyerɛkyerɛ, atɛnyi, ateɛteɛ ne trenee mu yɛn,
17 that the man of God may be fitted — for every good work having been completed.
sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a Onyankopɔn nipa bɛyɛ nea wɔasiesie no yiye ama nnwuma pa nyinaa.
