Mme Timotheo gape itse se, gore mo malatsing a bofelo go tlaa nna bokete thata go nna Mokeresete.
2 Ἔσονται γὰρ οἱ ἄνθρωποι φίλαυτοι, φιλάργυροι, ἀλαζόνες, ὑπερήφανοι, βλάσφημοι, γονεῦσιν ἀπειθεῖς, ἀχάριστοι, ἀνόσιοι,
Gonne batho ba tlaa nna baithati le barati ba madi a bone; ba tlaa nna maikgantsho le mabela, ba sotla Modimo, ba sa utlwe batsadi ba bone, ba sa ba tlotle, ebile ba le bosula gotlhelele.
3 ἄστοργοι, ἄσπονδοι, διάβολοι, ἀκρατεῖς, ἀνήμεροι, ἀφιλάγαθοι,
Ba tlaa nna ditlhogo di thata ebile ba sa ineele mo go ba bangwe; ba tlaa nna baaki ba gale le dirukhutlhi ebile ba tlaa natefelwa ke mekgwa yotlhe e e bosula. Ba tlaa nna setlhogo, mme ba tlaa sotla ba ba lekang go dira tshiamo.
4 προδόται, προπετεῖς, τετυφωμένοι, φιλήδονοι μᾶλλον ἢ φιλόθεοι,
Ba tlaa oka ditsala tsa bone; ba tlaa nna batenegi, baikgogomosi, e le barati ba dikgatlhego bogolo go go rata Modimo.
5 ἔχοντες μόρφωσιν εὐσεβείας, τὴν δὲ δύναμιν αὐτῆς ἠρνημένοι· καὶ τούτους ἀποτρέπου.
Ba tlaa ya kerekeng (phuthegong), ee, mme ga ba kitla ba dumela sepe se ba se utlwang. O se ka wa tsena mo bathong ba ba ntseng jalo.
6 Ἐκ τούτων γάρ, εἰσιν οἱ ἐνδύνοντες εἰς τὰς οἰκίας, καὶ αἰχμαλωτίζοντες γυναικάρια, σεσωρευμένα ἁμαρτίαις, ἀγόμενα ἐπιθυμίαις ποικίλαις,
Ke ba ba kukunelang mo malwapeng a batho ba bangwe mme ba tsalane le basadi ba dieleele ba ba imelwang ke dibe, ba ba rute dithuto tsa bone tse dintsha.
7 πάντοτε μανθάνοντα, καὶ μηδέποτε εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας ἐλθεῖν δυνάμενα.
Basadi ba mofuta oo ba saletse ruri morago baruti ba ba makgapha mme ga ba tlhaloganye boammaaruri.
8 Ὃν τρόπον δὲ Ἰάννης καὶ Ἰαμβρῆς ἀντέστησαν Μωϋσεῖ, οὕτως καὶ οὗτοι ἀνθίστανται τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, ἄνθρωποι κατεφθαρμένοι τὸν νοῦν, ἀδόκιμοι περὶ τὴν πίστιν.
Mme baruti ba ba tlhabantsha boammaaruri fela jaaka Janese le Jamberese ba ne ba tlhabantsha Moshe. Ba na le megopolo e e leswe, e e sokameng ebile ba fapogile mo tumelong ya Sekeresete.
9 Ἀλλʼ οὐ προκόψουσιν ἐπὶ πλεῖον, ἡ γὰρ ἄνοια αὐτῶν ἔκδηλος ἔσται πᾶσιν, ὡς καὶ ἡ ἐκείνων ἐγένετο.
Mme ga ba kitla ba ya gope. Letsatsi lengwe tsietso ya bone e tlaa itsiwe sentle ke mongwe le mongwe jaaka boleo jwa ga Janese le Jamperese.
10 Σὺ δὲ παρηκολούθησάς μου τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ, τῇ ἀγωγῇ, τῇ προθέσει, τῇ πίστει, τῇ μακροθυμίᾳ, τῇ ἀγάπῃ, τῇ ὑπομονῇ,
Mme wena o nkitse sentle gore ga ke motho yo o ntseng jalo. O itse se ke se dumelang le ka fa ke tshelang ka teng le se ke se batlang. O itse tumelo ya me mo go Keresete le ka fa ke bogileng ka teng. O itse lorato lwa me mo go wena, bobelotelele jwa me.
11 τοῖς διωγμοῖς, τοῖς παθήμασιν, οἷά μοι ἐγένετο ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ, ἐν Ἰκονίῳ, ἐν Λύστροις, οἵους διωγμοὺς ὑπήνεγκα, καὶ ἐκ πάντων, με ἐρρύσατο ὁ ˚Κύριος.

12 Καὶ πάντες δὲ οἱ θέλοντες ζῆν εὐσεβῶς ἐν ˚Χριστῷ ˚Ἰησοῦ διωχθήσονται.
Ee, pogiso e tlaa tlela botlhe ba ba ikaeletseng go tshela botshelo jwa Modimo go itumedisa Keresete Jesu, e tswa mo go ba ba mo ilang.
13 Πονηροὶ δὲ ἄνθρωποι καὶ γόητες προκόψουσιν ἐπὶ τὸ χεῖρον, πλανῶντες καὶ πλανώμενοι.
Ke boammaaruri, batho ba ba bosula ba tsietso ba tlaa dira go fetisisa, ba tsietsa ba le bantsi, bone ka bo bone ba tsieditswe ke Satane.
14 Σὺ δὲ μένε ἐν οἷς ἔμαθες καὶ ἐπιστώθης, εἰδὼς παρὰ τίνων ἔμαθες,
Mme o tshwanetse go tswelela go dumela dilo tse o di rutilweng. O a itse gore di boammaaruri gonne o itse gore o ka ikanya bangwe ba rona ba ba go rutileng.
15 καὶ ὅτι ἀπὸ βρέφους τὰ ἱερὰ γράμματα οἶδας, τὰ δυνάμενά σε σοφίσαι εἰς σωτηρίαν διὰ πίστεως τῆς ἐν ˚Χριστῷ ˚Ἰησοῦ.
O itse sentle, gore erile o sa le mmotlana, o ne wa rutwa Dikwalo tse di boitshepo; mme ke tsone tse di go tlhalefesitseng go amogela poloka ya Modimo ka go ikanya Jesu Keresete.
16 Πᾶσα Γραφὴ θεόπνευστος καὶ ὠφέλιμος πρὸς διδασκαλίαν, πρὸς ἐλεγμόν, πρὸς ἐπανόρθωσιν, πρὸς παιδείαν τὴν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ,
Baebele yotlhe re e neetswe ka tlhotlheletso ya Modimo gape e botlhokwa go re ruta se e leng boammaaruri le go re lemotsha se se sa siamang mo matshelong a rona; e a re tlhamalatsa ebile e re thusa go dira tshiamo.
17 ἵνα ἄρτιος ᾖ ὁ τοῦ ˚Θεοῦ ἄνθρωπος, πρὸς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἐξηρτισμένος.
Ke tsela ya Modimo ya go re siamisa mo dilong tsotlhe, gore re felele mo go direleng batho botlhe tshiamo ka botlalo.
