2 Timote 3
1 Mete sa byen nan tèt ou: nan dènye jou yo, tan an pral difisil anpil.
But of this be sure. In the last days grievous times will come.
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 selfish, mercenary, boastful, haughty, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, irreligious,
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, merciless, slanderous, dissolute, and brutal.
4 Y'a mòde an trèt, y'a fè kòlè fasil, lògèy va gonfle lestonmak yo. Y'ap pito plezi pase sèvis Bondye.
They will hate goodness, they will be treacherous, reckless, blinded with pride, lovers of pleasure, rather 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.
For although they keep up the outward form of religion, they deny its power.
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.
Turn away from all such. Some of them creep into private houses and lead captive silly women who, laden with sins,
7 Medam sa yo toujou ap chache konnen. Men, yo pa janm ka rive konnen verite a.
and led captive by ever-changing impulses, are always learning but never able to arrive at 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.
As Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so also do these men withstand the truth; being corrupt in mind and worthless in all that concerns 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 get on; for their folly will be made as openly manifest to all as was that of Jannes and Jambres.
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,
But you, Timothy, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aims, my faith, patience, 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.
as well as the persecutions and sufferings which befell me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. You know all the persecutions I endured, and how the Lord delivered me out of them all!
12 Tout moun ki vle viv nan sèvis Bondye ansanm ak Jezikri gen pou soufri pèsekisyon.
Yes, and all who purpose to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will 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.
But wicked men and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving others, and being themselves deceived.
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.
But do you hold fast what you have learned and have held to be true. You know those from whom you have learned it,
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 how from a child you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith 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 Scripture, seeing that it is God-breathed, is also profitable for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training 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.
so that the man of God may himself be complete, and completely equipped for every good work.
