2 Timote 3
1 Mete sa byen nan tèt ou: nan dènye jou yo, tan an pral difisil anpil.
And know this, that in the last days there will come perilous times,
2 Moun pral fè rayisab, y'ap renmen lajan, y'ap fè grandizè, lògèy ap vire tèt yo, y'ap pale Bondye mal, y'ap dezobeyi papa ak manman yo, y'ap engra, y'ap san okenn respè pou bagay Bondye.
for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, slanderous, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unkind,
3 Kè yo ap di, y'ap san pitye, y'ap pale moun mal, y'ap fè gwo kòlè, y'ap brital. Yo p'ap vle wè sa ki byen menm.
without natural affection, implacable, false accusers, without control, barbaric, not lovers of those who are good,
4 Y'a mòde an trèt, y'a fè kòlè fasil, lògèy va gonfle lestonmak yo. Y'ap pito plezi pase sèvis Bondye.
traitors, reckless, lofty, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God,
5 Y'ap fè tankou y'ap sèvi Bondye. Men, yo pa kwè nan pouvwa Bondye a tout bon vre. Pa mele ak moun konsa menm.
having a form of piety, but having denied its power; and be turning away from these,
6 Gen ladan yo k'ap antre lakay moun pou pran tèt medam ki fèb yo, ki gen konsyans yo chaje anba peche epi k'ap kite tout kalite move lanvi mennen lavi yo.
for of these there are those coming into the houses and leading captive the weak women, loaded with sins, led away with manifold desires,
7 Medam sa yo toujou ap chache konnen. Men, yo pa janm ka rive konnen verite a.
always learning, and never able to come to a knowledge of truth,
8 Menm jan ou te wè Janès ak Janbrès t'ap fè Moyiz opozisyon an, konsa tou moun sa yo ap fè verite a opozisyon. Se yon bann moun ki gen lespri yo deraye. Bondye voye yo jete paske yo pa gen konfyans tout bon nan li.
and even as Jannes and Jambres stood against Moses, so these also stand against the truth, men corrupted in mind, disapproved concerning the faith;
9 Men, yo p'ap rive lwen, paske tout moun pral rekonèt jan yo pèdi tèt yo, menm jan sa te rive pou Janès ak Janbrès.
but they will not advance any further, for their folly will be evident to all, as theirs also became.
10 Men, ou menm, ou te swiv mwen pye pou pye nan tout bagay: nan verite mwen moutre moun yo, nan jan mwen mennen lavi mwen, nan lide m' mete nan tèt mwen, nan konfyans mwen gen nan Bondye, nan pasyans mwen, nan renmen mwen gen nan kè m', nan jan mwen kenbe fèm,
And you have followed after my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance,
11 nan pèsekisyon mwen ak nan soufrans mwen. Ou konnen tou sa ki te rive m' Antiòch, Ikoniòm ak List, ki kalite pèsekisyon mwen te sipòte. Men, Bondye te delivre m' anba yo tout.
the persecutions, the afflictions, that befell me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; what persecutions I endured! And the LORD delivered me out of all.
12 Tout moun ki vle viv nan sèvis Bondye ansanm ak Jezikri gen pou soufri pèsekisyon.
And all who will to live piously in Christ Jesus will also be persecuted,
13 Men, mechan k'ap fè bagay pou twonpe moun yo pral pi lwen toujou nan mechanste yo, yo toujou ap twonpe moun, y'ap kite moun twonpe pwòp tèt yo tou.
and evil men and impostors will advance to the worse, leading astray and being led astray.
14 Kanta ou menm, se pou ou kenbe fèm sa yo te moutre ou la, sa ou te resevwa ak fèm konviksyon, paske ou konnen nan men ki moun ou te aprann yo.
And you—remain in the things which you learned and were entrusted with, having known from whom you learned,
15 Depi ou te tou piti ou konnen sa ki nan Liv Bondye a. Se liv sa a k'ap ba ou bon konprann, bon konprann ki fè moun rive delivre, gremesi konfyans yo gen nan Jezikri.
and because you have known the Holy Writings from infancy, which are able to make you wise—to salvation, through faith that [is] in Christ Jesus.
16 Tou sa ki ekri nan Liv la, se nan Lespri Bondye a yo soti. Y'ap sèvi pou moutre moun verite a, pou konbat moun ki nan lerè, pou korije moun k'ap fè fòt, pou moutre yo ki jan pou yo viv byen devan Bondye.
Every Writing [is] God-breathed, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction that [is] in righteousness,
17 Konsa, yon moun k'ap sèvi Bondye, li tou pare, li gen tou sa li bezwen pou l' fè tou sa ki byen.
that the man of God may be fitted—having been completed for every good work.
