2 Timotea 4

1 Nikuha itaela ikolete havunsu bwa Ireeza ni Kreste Jesu, yente na atule vahala ni vafwile, bakeni chaku livonahaza kwakwe mwipuso:

Now then, in the presence of God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is about to judge both living and dead, with a view to His appearing and His Kingdom, I give you this charge:

2 Ukutaze Inzwii. Ulitukiseze mukuwoleka niha kusawoleki. Unyanse, Ukalimele, Ususuweze, nikulonde ni mukuruta.

Proclaim the Word; be ready in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and exhort, with lots of patience and teaching.

3 Linu inako ikezite iyo vantu muvakangwe intuto yeniti. kono. kavali kunganyize maruti vayenderera ni takazo zavo.

Because the time will come when they will not tolerate the sound doctrine; rather, they will accumulate for themselves a great many teachers who will tickle their ears according to their lusts

4 kavasike mantwi abo kuti kanjivazuwi vuniti. Kavazwe mukuzuwa initi, imi muvayembulukele kumatangu.

—yes, they will turn their ears away from the Truth and be turned aside to fables.

5 kono iwe, ulikwate muzintu zonse. Ulikoze muvukavo, upange musevezi wavu buleli. wizuzilize isevezo yanko.

But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

6 Kakuli nive tiliwa kale hanze, Inako yangu yakuyenda chiyasika.

For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come.

7 nivalwi ikondo indotu; nivasiki kuma manizo; niva viki intumelo.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

8 Ikuwani yakuluka ivikilwe ime, Ni Simwine yo iye muatuli, yente naka nihe mwelina izuva, kono isinyi ime neke, kono navo bavasaki kuvonahala kwakwe.

Now the crown of the righteousness is reserved for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that Day; and not only to me, but also to all those who have longed for His appearing.

9 Upange mo wolela kwiza kwangu cho kulitahanera.

Do your best to come to me quickly;

10 Demasi avanisiyi. Kakuli usaka zekanda yahanu imi avayendi kwa Tesalonika. Kresensi avayendi kwa Magatia; imi Tite avayendi kwa Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)

for Demas, loving this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica—Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)

11 Mbwiteli Luka njowina name. muhinde Mareka mwize naye wina intuso kwangu kuwamana mowu musevezi.

Only Luke is with me. Take Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for ministry.

12 Nivatumi Titiko kwa Efese,

Tychicus I sent to Ephesus.

13 Uniletele ijasi linibasiyi kwa Troasi kwa Karpo. wize nalyo, ni mbuka, sihulu izo za hamandalo anoletwe.

Bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, when you come—and the books, especially the parchments.

14 Alexandere mufuli we zintale zekopa avapangi zintu zifosahele kwangu. Ireeza mwa muvozekeze kuyenderela ni mitendo yokwe.

Alexander the coppersmith did me a lot of harm; may the Lord repay him according to his deeds.

15 Nawe uzwe kwali umutokomere, Mukuti ulwisa mazwi etu.

You also guard against him, because he strongly opposed our words.

16 mwinako iniva litavilili, vonse vavanisiyi. mi kanji nizi valirwa kuvali mulandu.

At my first defense no one came to help me, but all deserted me. May it not be held against them.

17 Kono Simwine avazimani name niku nikoza ili kuti, mukati kangu, ilikuti ku kutaza kwangu kuwole kwizuzilizwa. ilikuti vechinsi vawole kuzuwa. niva hazwa mumilomo ivandavu

But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the nations might hear. Also, I was delivered out of a lion's mouth;

18 Simwine mwani lukulule muvuvi vonse mi imi chebaka lyemupuso yewulu. kwali kuve ni kanya kuya uko kusamani. Ameni. (aiōn g165)

and the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and save me into His heavenly Kingdom; to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

19 Ulumelise Pulisila, ni Akwila, nivezuvo ya Onesiforosi.

Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.

20 Erasitusi avashali kwa Makorite. kono nivakasiyiyi Trifimosi kwa Mileta nalwala.

Erastus stayed in Corinth, while I left Trophimus sick in Miletus.

21 Ulike mo wolera kukeza maliha ni aseni kusika. Eubulo uku lumelisa, Ni Pendenisi, Linasi, kalaundia, ni mizwale yonse.

Do your best to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia and all the brothers.

22 Imi Simwine ave ni luhuho lwako, Nichisemo chive nanwe.

The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. The Grace be with you. Amen.
