< 2 Timotheo 3 >

1 No rĩrĩ, menya atĩ matukũ ma kũrigĩrĩria nĩgũkagĩa na mahinda ma ũgwati.
But know this, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 Andũ magaatuĩka eyendi, na endi mbeeca, na egani, na egaathi, na arumani, na andũ mataiguaga aciari ao, na matarĩ ngaatho, na matarĩ atheru.
For men will be lovers of themselves, moneylovers, arrogant, proud, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
3 Ningĩ makorwo matarĩ na wendani, na matarekanagĩra, na a gũcambania, na matangĩhota kwĩgirĩrĩria merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, na matarĩ tha, na matendaga maũndũ mega,
without natural affections, covenant breakers, devilish, intemperate, furious, opposed to good,
4 na andũ mendaga gũkunyanĩra andũ arĩa angĩ, na arũgĩrĩri, na eĩkĩrĩri, na endi gwĩkenia gũkĩra ũrĩa mendete Ngai.
traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;
5 Andũ acio metuaga ta meyamũrĩire Ngai no nĩmakaanaga hinya wake. Wĩthemage andũ ta acio.
having a form of godliness, but denying the power of the same: and from these turn away.
6 Acio nĩo arĩa matoonyagĩrĩra nyũmba ciene na makaguucagĩrĩria andũ-a-nja arĩa ahũthũ ngoro, arĩa maiyũrĩtwo nĩ mehia, na arĩa matwaragĩrĩrio nĩ merirĩria mooru ma mĩthemba yothe.
For of these are those creeping into houses, and leading captive little, silly women laden with sins, being led by divers lusts,
7 Andũ-a-nja acio nĩmerutaga ũndũ mwerũ hĩndĩ ciothe, no matirĩ hĩndĩ mamenyaga ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma.
always learning, and never able to come into the perfect knowledge of the truth.
8 O ta ũrĩa Janne na Jambare maakararirie Musa-rĩ, no taguo andũ acio mehotoraga makararie ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma. Meciiria mao nĩ mooru, nao ha ũhoro ũkoniĩ wĩtĩkio nĩakũregwo biũ.
In the manner in which Jannes and Jambres also resisted Moses, so these indeed resist the truth; men who are corrupt as to their mind, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 No rĩrĩ, matingĩthiĩ haraaya, tondũ ũrimũ wao nĩũkamenyeka nĩ andũ othe, o ta ũrĩa ũhoro wa andũ acio wamenyekire.
But they shall proceed no further: for their insanity will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.
10 No wee-rĩ, nĩũĩ ũhoro wothe wa ũrutani wakwa, na mũtũũrĩre wakwa, na matanya makwa, na wĩtĩkio wakwa, na ũkirĩrĩria wakwa, na wendani wakwa, na kũũmĩrĩria gwakwa,
Burt you have followed my teaching, leadership, purpose, faith, long suffering, divine love, patience,
11 na kũnyariirwo gwakwa, na mathĩĩna makwa, o na mĩthemba ya maũndũ marĩa maangorire kũu Antiokia, na Ikonia, o na Lusitera, mĩnyamaro ĩrĩa niĩ ndomĩrĩirie. No Mwathani nĩahonokirie kuuma kũrĩ mathĩĩna macio mothe.
persecutions, sufferings; such as came to me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; such persecutions as I endured: and the Lord delivered me out of them all.
12 Ti-itherũ, mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũkwenda gũtũũra mũtũũrĩre wa gũkenia Ngai arĩ thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ nĩarĩnyariiragwo,
But truly all wishing to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
13 No andũ arĩa aaganu na arĩa aheenania nĩmarĩkĩragĩrĩria kwagana, makaheenanagia na makaheenagio.
But wicked men and seducers will wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
14 No wee-rĩ, tũũra wĩkaga maũndũ marĩa wĩrutĩte na ũkametĩkia wega atĩ nĩ ma ma, tondũ nĩũĩ arĩa maakũrutire,
But abide thou in those things which thou hast learned and in which thou hast been instructed, knowing from whom thou hast learned;
15 na ũrĩa wamenyire Maandĩko marĩa matheru kuuma rĩrĩa warĩ kaana, marĩa mangĩhota gũkũũhĩgia nĩguo ũkaahonokio nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia thĩinĩ wa Kristũ Jesũ.
and that from an infant thou hast known the holy scriptures which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 Ũhoro wothe ũrĩa wandĩkĩtwo Maandĩko-inĩ wekĩrirwo thĩinĩ wa mũwandĩki nĩ Ngai, na nĩwagĩrĩire harĩ ũhoro wa kũrutana, na wa gũkaanania, na wa kũrũnga mahĩtia, o na wa kũrutana mĩikarĩre ya ũthingu,
All scripture is God-breathed and profitable unto teaching, unto conviction, unto correction, unto instruction which is in righteousness:
17 nĩgeetha mũndũ wa Ngai akoragwo arĩ mũkinyanĩru, na athagathagĩtwo biũ kũruta wĩra o wothe mwega.
in order that the man of God may be perfect, having been thoroughly perfected unto every good work.
