Tesalonikatɔwo 2 2
1 Le míaƒe Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe vava kple ale si míaƒo ƒu ɖe egbɔ ŋuti la, míele biabiam tso mia si, nɔviwo, be
Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to meet him, I entreat you, brothers,
2 migana woatɔtɔ miaƒe susuwo bɔbɔe alo ado dzikatsoameƒo na mi kple nyagblɔɖiwo, nutsotsowo alo kple agbalẽ aɖe si wogblɔ be etso mía gbɔ hele gbɔgblɔm be Aƒetɔ la ƒe vavagbe la va yi xoxo o.
not to be "quickly shaken out of your wits" and not to be agitated either by a spirit or by a message, or by an epistle purporting to be from me, saying, "The Day of the Lord is at hand."
3 Migana woatɔtɔ miaƒe susuwo, eye woable mi o; migaxɔ nu sia nu si wogblɔ la dzi se o, elabena ŋkeke ma mava o, va se ɖe esime aglãdzedze ava eye woaɖe ame sedzimawɔla la ɖe go, ame si woɖo ɖi na tsɔtsrɔ̃.
Let no one deceive you by any means. For it will not come until after the Great Apostasy, and the revealing of the Man of Sin, the son of perdition,
4 Atsi tsitre ɖe mawu bubuwo ŋu, eye ayi aɖagbã nu siwo katã amewo subɔna la kple afi si wosubɔa wo le la gudugudu. Ayi aɖanɔ Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ me abe Mawu ene, eye wòable amewo be yee nye Mawu.
the adversary, who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God, or is an object of worship; so that he takes his seat in the Temple of God, and vaunts himself as God.
5 Mieɖo ŋku edzi be megblɔ nya siawo na mi esi menɔ mia gbɔ oa?
Do you not recall that I often told you this, when I was with you?
6 Eye mienya nu si le mɔ xem na eƒe afi sia vava xoxo, elabena ne eƒe ɣeyiɣi mede o la, mava o.
And now you know what is holding him back, to the end that he may be revealed in his appointed time.
7 Ke nu si ŋutsu aglãdzela sia awɔ ne eva la le edzi yim xoxo le bebeme, gake eya ŋutɔ mava o va se ɖe esime ame si le mɔ xem nɛ la do ɖa le mɔ me nɛ hafi.
For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only there is one who is hindering and will continue to hinder till he be removed;
8 Ekema ŋutsu vɔ̃ɖi sia ava do, eye Aƒetɔ Yesu atsɔ eƒe ya si wògbɔna to eƒe nu me la afiae, eye ne etrɔ va la, atsrɔ̃ ŋutsu sia ɖa le anyigba dzi.
and then the lawless one will be revealed. Him the Lord will consume with the breath of his lips, and destroy with the brightness of his appearing;
9 Ŋutsu nu vɔ̃ wɔla sia ava kple Satana ƒe ŋusẽ eye Satana awɔ eŋu dɔ atsɔ wɔ dzesi kple nukunu gã geɖewo, atsɔ aflu amewoe.
even he whose coming is according to the energy of Satan, in every power and sign and lying wonder,
10 Atsɔ madzɔmadzɔnyenye able ame siwo katã yina ɖe dzomavɔ la me, elabena wogbe nyateƒe la xɔxɔ, alɔ̃e be wòaɖe wo o,
and with all deceit of unrighteousness for those who are perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth for their salvation.
11 eya ta Mawu ɖe mɔ na wo be woaxɔ alakpa siawo katã dzi ase kple woƒe dzi blibo,
For this reason God is sending on them an energy of delusion, that they should put faith in a falsehood;
12 eye woadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu wo katã pɛpɛpɛ be woxɔ alakpa dzi se, wogbe nu le nyateƒe la gbɔ, eye wokpɔ dzidzɔ le woƒe nu vɔ̃wo me.
so that they all should be condemned, who are faithless to the truth, but take pleasure in evil.
13 Ke ele be míada akpe na Mawu ɖaa ɖe mia ta, mi mía nɔvi siwo Aƒetɔ la lɔ̃, elabena Mawu ɖoe tso blema ke be yeana miakpɔ ɖeɖe, aklɔ mia ŋuti to Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la ƒe dɔwɔwɔ kple miaƒe nyateƒe la dzi xɔxɔ se me.
But for you, brothers, whom the Lord loves, I ought to give thanks to God continually, because God has chosen you from the beginning for salvation in consecration of the Spirit and belief of the truth.
14 Mawu gblɔ nyanyui la na mi to mía dzi, eye to mía dzi wòyɔ mi be miakpɔ gome le míaƒe Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe la me.
For this he called you through my gospel, so that you might obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Nɔvi lɔlɔ̃awo, nu siawo katã le susu me na mi, eya ta minɔ te sesĩe, eye mialé nyateƒe la me ɖe asi sesĩe, nyateƒe siwo míefia mi, esi míenɔ mia gbɔ kple esiwo míeŋlɔ ɖo ɖe mi le míaƒe agbalẽwo me na mi.
So, brothers, stand fast, and hold fast the teachings which you have been taught by me, whether by word of mouth or by letter.
16 Míaƒe Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ŋutɔ kple Mawu mía Fofo, ame si lɔ̃ mí, eye to eƒe amenuveve me la, wòna dzideƒo mavɔ kple mɔkpɔkpɔ nyui mí la (aiōnios g166)
And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal encouragement and a good hope in grace, (aiōnios g166)
17 nade dzi ƒo na mi, eye wòado ŋusẽ mi le dɔ nyui ɖe sia ɖe wɔwɔ kple nyanyui la gbɔgblɔ me.
comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good work and word.
