< 2 Timoti 2 >

1 Kai kuma, ɗana, ka yi ƙarfi cikin alherin da yake cikin Kiristi Yesu.
Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 Abubuwan da ka ji na faɗa a gaban shaidu masu yawa kuwa ka danƙa wa amintattun mutane waɗanda su ma za su iya koya wa waɗansu.
And the things that thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Ka jure wa shan wahala tare da mu kamar soja mai kyau na Kiristi Yesu.
Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 Ba wanda yake aikin soja da zai sa kansa a sha’anin mutumin da ba ya aikin soja, domin yakan so yă gamshi wanda ya ɗauke shi soja.
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 Haka ma, in wani ya yi gasa a matsayi shi ɗan wasa ne, ba ya sami rawanin nasara, sai in ya yi gasar bisa ga dokoki.
And if a man also striveth for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he striveth lawfully.
6 Manomi mai aiki sosai ya kamata yă zama na fari wajen samun rabon amfanin gona.
The farmer that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Ka yi tunani a kan abin da nake faɗi, gama Ubangiji zai ba ka ganewa cikin dukan wannan.
Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8 Ka tuna da Yesu Kiristi, wanda aka tā da shi daga matattu, zuriyar Dawuda, wanda shi ne bisharata,
Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 wadda nake shan wahala har ga daurin sarƙa kamar mai laifi. Amma Maganar Allah ba a daure take ba.
In which I suffer trouble, as an evildoer, even to bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Saboda haka nake jure kome saboda zaɓaɓɓu, domin su ma su sami ceton da yake cikin Kiristi Yesu, tare da madawwamiyar ɗaukaka. (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 Ga wata magana tabbatacciya, “In muka mutu tare da shi, za mu rayu tare da shi;
It is a faithful saying: For if we are dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 in muka jimre, za mu yi mulki tare da shi. In muka yi mūsunsa, shi ma zai yi mūsunmu;
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13 in ba mu da aminci, shi dai mai aminci ne, domin shi ba zai iya mūsun kansa ba.”
If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
14 Ka riƙa tuna masu da haka, ka kuma gama su da Allah, kada su yi jayayya a kan maganganu, don ba ta da wani amfani, sai ɓad da masu ji kawai take yi.
Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they contend not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Ka yi iyakacin ƙoƙarinka ka gabatar da kanka a gaban Allah a matsayin wanda aka amince da shi, ma’aikaci wanda ba shi da dalilin jin kunya wanda kuma yake fassara kalmar gaskiya daidai.
Study to show thyself approved to God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 Ka yi nesa da maganganun banza na rashin tsoron Allah, gama waɗanda suka mai da hankali ga yin waɗannan za su ƙara zama marasa tsoron Allah.
But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase to more ungodliness.
17 Koyarwarsu za tă bazu kamar ruɓaɓɓen gyambo. A cikinsu akwai Himenayus da Filetus,
And their word will eat as doth a gangrene: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
18 waɗanda suka bauɗe daga gaskiya. Suna cewa tashin matattu ya riga ya faru, suna kuma ɓata bangaskiyar waɗansu.
Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Duk da haka, ƙaƙƙarfan tushen nan na Allah yana nan daram, an hatimce shi da wannan rubutu, “Ubangiji ya san waɗanda suke nasa,” da kuma, “Duk wanda ya bayyana yarda ga sunan Ubangiji, to, dole yă yi nesa da aikata mugunta.”
Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth firm, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
20 A babban gida akwai kayayyakin da ba na zinariya da na azurfa kaɗai ba, amma har da na katako da na yumɓu ma; waɗansu domin hidima mai daraja waɗansu kuwa domin hidima marar daraja.
But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
21 In mutum ya tsabtacce kansa daga na farkon zai zama kayan aikin hidima mai daraja, mai amfani ga Maigida, kuma shiryayye domin yin kowane aiki mai kyau.
If a man therefore will cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, and fit for the master’s use, and prepared to every good work.
22 Ka yi nesa da mugayen sha’awace-sha’awace na ƙuruciya, ka kuma bi adalci, bangaskiya, ƙauna da kuma salama, tare da waɗanda suke kira ga Ubangiji daga zuciya mai tsabta.
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 Kada wani abu yă haɗa ka da gardandamin banza da wofi, domin ka san yadda suke jawo faɗa.
But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they produce quarrels.
24 Bai kamata bawan Ubangiji yă zama mai neman faɗa ba; a maimako, dole yă nuna alheri ga kowa, mai iya koyarwa, mai haƙuri kuma.
And the servant of the Lord must not quarrel; but be gentle to all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 Waɗanda suke gāba da shi kuwa dole yă yi musu gargaɗi cikin hankali, da fata Allah zai sa su tuba su kai ga sanin gaskiya,
In meekness instructing those that oppose him; if God perhaps will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 su kuma dawo cikin hankulansu su kuɓuta daga tarkon Iblis, wanda ya sa suka zama kamammu don su aikata nufinsa.
And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
