Timoteo 2 3
1 Wò ŋku nenɔ esia dzi be ɣeyiɣi vɔ̃wo ava le ŋkeke mamlɛawo me.
And this know thou, that in the last days there shall come perilous times,
2 Amewo anye ɖokuilɔ̃lawo, galɔ̃lawo, adegbe ƒuƒlu ƒolawo, dadalawo, amedzulawo, ame siwo meɖoa to wo dzilawo o, akpemadalawo, ame makɔmakɔwo,
for men shall be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, evil-speakers, to parents disobedient, unthankful, unkind,
3 amemalɔ̃lawo, ame siwo metsɔa nu vɔ̃ kena o, ameŋugblẽlawo, ɖokuidzimaɖulawo, ŋutasẽlawo, ame siwo léa fu nu nyui,
without natural affection, implacable, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, not lovers of those who are good,
4 amegɔmezɔlawo, dzimagbɔɖitɔwo, ɖokuiŋudzelawo, ame siwo lɔ̃a xexemedzidzɔ wu Mawu,
traitors, heady, lofty, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God,
5 ame siwo si gotagome ƒe mawuvɔvɔ̃ le, evɔ wogbe nu le ŋusẽ si ana be woanɔ agbe le Mawu me la gbɔ. Te ɖokuiwò ɖa xaa tso ame siawo gbɔ.
having a form of piety, and its power having denied; and from these be turning away,
6 Woawoe nye ame siwo yia ame bubuwo ƒe aƒewo me le adzame, eye wowɔa xɔlɔ̃ kple nyɔnu abunɛtɔ siwo me nu vɔ̃ xɔ aƒe ɖo la, eye wofiaa woƒe xɔse yeye la wo.
for of these there are those coming into the houses and leading captive the silly women, laden with sins, led away with desires manifold,
7 Nyɔnu siawo tɔgbi dzea nufiala yeyewo yome ɣe sia ɣi, ke womesea nyateƒe la gɔme ɣe aɖeke ɣi o.
always learning, and never to a knowledge of truth able to come,
8 Nufiala siawo tsia tsitre ɖe nyateƒe la ŋu abe ale si Yane kple Yambre tsi tsitre ɖe Mose ŋu ene. Susu ƒoɖi totro kpaɖikpaɖiwo le wo me, eye wotsi tsitre ɖe Kristo dzixɔse la ŋu.
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;
9 Ke womanɔ edzi alea tegbee o. Gbe ɖeka la, amewo katã ava nya woƒe amebeble abe ale si amewo va nya Yane kple Yambre ƒe nu vɔ̃ ene.
but they shall not advance any further, for their folly shall be manifest to all, as theirs also did become.
10 Ke ènya to ŋkuléle ɖe ŋunye me be nyemenye ame siawo tɔgbi o. Ènya nu si dzi mexɔ se, ale si menɔa agbee kple nu si dim mele. Ènya nye Kristo dzixɔse kple nye fukpekpewo. Ènya nu tso ale si melɔ̃ wò kple nye dzidodo ŋu.
And thou — thou hast followed after my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance,
11 Ènya fukpekpe geɖe siwo va dzinye le gbeƒãɖeɖe nyanyui la ta. Ènya nu siwo katã wowɔm esi meyi Antioxia, Ikonio kple Listra hã, ke Aƒetɔ la ɖem tso wo me.
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,
12 Ɛ̃, ame siwo ɖo be yewoadze Kristo Yesu ŋu to agbenɔnɔ le mawuvɔvɔ̃ me me la akpe fu le ame siwo lé fui la ƒe asi me.
and all also who will to live piously in Christ Jesus shall be persecuted,
13 Le nyateƒe me la, ame vɔ̃ɖiwo kple aʋatsonufialawo ƒe vɔɖivɔ̃ɖi anɔ sesẽm ɖe edzi wu, eye woanɔ ame geɖewo blem abe ale si Satana ble woawo ŋutɔ hã ene.
and evil men and impostors shall advance to the worse, leading astray and being led astray.
14 Ke ele na wò be nàlé nu siwo wofia wò la dzixɔse me ɖe asi. Ènya be nu siawo nye nyateƒe, elabena ènya be yeate ŋu axɔ mí ame siwo fia nu siawo wò la dzi ase.
And thou — be remaining in the things which thou didst learn and wast entrusted with, having known from whom thou didst learn,
15 Ènya ale si, esi nènye ɖevi sue la, wofia Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔe la wò, nu siawo na nèdze nunya be nàkpɔ Mawu ƒe ɖeɖe to Kristo Yesu dzixɔse me.
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;
16 Mawu tsɔ eƒe nya la na mí to eƒe Gbɔgbɔ si wɔ dɔ le amewo me la dzi, eya ta Biblia nyo hena nufiafia tso nu siwo nye nyateƒe la ŋu kple ale si wòana míadze si nu siwo nye nu vɔ̃ le míaƒe agbenɔnɔ me. Edaa mí ɖe mɔ dzɔdzɔe dzi, eye wòkpena ɖe mía ŋu be míawɔ nu si nyo, eye wòdze.
every Writing [is] God-breathed, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction that [is] in righteousness,
17 Eyae nye Mawu ƒe mɔ si dzraa mí ɖo nyuie le go sia go me hena nyuiwɔwɔ na ame sia ame.
that the man of God may be fitted — for every good work having been completed.
