2 Timothy 4
1 I do fully testify, then, before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is about to judge living and dead at his manifestation and his reign —
Migyina Onyankopɔn ne Kristo Yesu a obebu ateasefo ne awufo ntɛn, ne ba a ɔbɛba ne nʼahenni no so hyɛ wo sɛ,
2 preach the word; be earnest in season, out of season, convict, rebuke, exhort, in all long-suffering and teaching,
ka asɛm no, na bere biara gyina ne ka mu dennen yi ntɛn. Ka anim, tu fo na kyerɛkyerɛ wɔ boasetɔ mu.
3 for there shall be a season when the sound teaching they will not suffer, but according to their own desires to themselves they shall heap up teachers — itching in the hearing,
Bere bi bɛba a nnipa rentie nkyerɛkyerɛ pa no, na mmom wobedi wɔn ara wɔn asɛde akyi na wɔaboaboa akyerɛkyerɛfo a wɔbɛka nsɛm a wɔrehwehwɛ atie no ano, na wɔaka akyerɛ wɔn.
4 and indeed, from the truth the hearing they shall turn away, and to the fables they shall be turned aside.
Wɔbɛpo nokware no tie, na wɔatie anansesɛm.
5 And thou — watch in all things; suffer evil; do the work of one proclaiming good news; of thy ministration make full assurance,
Nanso mmere nyinaa mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wohwɛ wo ho so yiye. Mia wʼani wɔ amanehunu mu. Yɛ ɔsɛmpakafo adwuma na di wo dwuma nyinaa sɛ Onyankopɔn somfo.
6 for I am already being poured out, and the time of my release hath arrived;
Wogu so rehwie me sɛ afɔre ahwiesa, na bere abɛn sɛ migyaw asetena yi.
7 the good strife I have striven, the course I have finished, the faith I have kept,
Ɔko pa no, mako, mmirika no, mawie tu; gyidi no makora.
8 henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of the righteousness that the Lord — the Righteous Judge — shall give to me in that day, and not only to me, but also to all those loving his manifestation.
Afei nea ɛwɔ ma me ne nkonim akyɛde, trenee ahenkyɛw a Awurade a ɔyɛ Otemmufo treneeni no de bɛma me da no, ɛnyɛ me nko, na mmom, wɔn a wɔatena ase wɔ ɔdɔ mu atwɛn no no nyinaa.
9 Be diligent to come unto me quickly,
Bɔ mmɔden bra me nkyɛn ntɛm.
10 for Demas forsook me, having loved the present age, and went on to Thessalonica, Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia, (aiōn g165)
Dema dɔɔ nnɛ wiase yi ma ɔyɛɛ saa guan gyaa me hɔ kɔɔ Tesalonika. Kreske kɔɔ Galatia, Tito nso kɔɔ Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)
11 Lukas only is with me; Markus having taken, bring with thyself, for he is profitable to me for ministration;
Luka nko ara na ɔne me wɔ ha. Fa Marko ka wo ho na wo ne no mmra, efisɛ obetumi aboa me adwuma no yɛ.
12 and Tychicus I sent to Ephesus;
Mesomaa Tihiko kɔɔ Efeso.
13 the cloak that I left in Troas with Carpus, coming, bring thou and the books — especially the parchments.
Sɛ woreba a, fa mʼatade a migyaw wɔ Karpo nkyɛn wɔ Troa no brɛ me. Ɛyɛ a, fa me nwoma mmobɔwee no nso ka ho, ne titiriw no nea wɔde aboa nwoma yɛe no.
14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil; may the Lord repay to him according to his works,
Aleksandro, kɔbere dwumfo no, haw me papaapa; Awurade betua no nea ɔyɛɛ no so ka.
15 of whom also do thou beware, for greatly hath he stood against our words;
Ɛyɛ a hwɛ wo ho yiye wɔ ne ho, efisɛ na ɔsɔre tia nsɛm a yɛka no mu denneennen.
16 in my first defence no one stood with me, but all forsook me, (may it not be reckoned to them!)
Bere a mereyi me ho ano no, obiara ammoa me. Wɔn nyinaa guan gyaa me. Onyankopɔn mfa nkyɛ wɔn.
17 and the Lord stood by me, and did strengthen me, that through me the preaching might be fully assured, and all the nations might hear, and I was freed out of the mouth of a lion,
Nanso Awurade ne me tena maa me ahoɔden ma mitumi kaa asɛm no kyerɛɛ amanamanmufo ma wotiei. Ogyee me fii gyata anom.
18 and the Lord shall free me from every evil work, and shall save [me] — to his heavenly kingdom; to whom [is] the glory to the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Na Awurade begye me afi bɔne nyinaa mu na ɔde me akɔ ɔsoro Ahenni no mu wɔ asomdwoe mu. Ɔno na anuonyam nka no daa daa. Amen. (aiōn g165)
19 Salute Prisca and Aquilas, and Onesiphorus' household;
Kyia Priska ne Akwila ne Onesiforo fifo nyinaa ma me.
20 Erastus did remain in Corinth, and Trophimus I left in Miletus infirm;
Erasto kaa Korinto na migyaw Trofimo wɔ Mileto, efisɛ na ɔyare.
21 be diligent to come before winter. Salute thee doth Eubulus, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.
Bɔ mmɔden bra ansa na awɔwbere adu. Eubulo ne Pude ne Lino ne Klaudia ne anuanom no nyinaa kyiakyia wo.
22 The Lord Jesus Christ [is] with thy spirit; the grace [is] with you! Amen.
Awurade ne wo honhom ntena. Adom nka mo nyinaa.
