2 Timoty 4
1 Aa le afantoko ama’o añatrefan’ Añahare naho Iesoà Norizañey, i hizaka o veloñeo naho o nivilasio amy fitotsaha’ey naho amy fifehea’eiy,
I solemnly implore you, in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is about to judge the living and the dead, and by His Appearing and His Kingship:
2 ty hitaroñe i tsaray! ho veka’e he an-tsà’e ke tsy an-tsà’e ty hampiantoke, hañatahata, naho hañosike am-pañohañe pea fahaliñisañe.
proclaim God's message, be zealous in season and out of season; convince, rebuke, encourage, with the utmost patience as a teacher.
3 Toe ho tondroke ty sa’ tsy hiantofañe ty mpañohañe vantañe, fa an-draven-tsofiñe mangilingily ty hanontona’ iareo mpañoke tsahatse o drao’ iareoo,
For a time is coming when they will not tolerate wholesome instruction, but, wanting to have their ears tickled, they will find a multitude of teachers to satisfy their own fancies;
4 naho hongañe’ ty ravembia’ iareo ty hatò, hitolike mb’an-dantom-bolañe.
and will turn away from listening to the truth and will turn aside to fables.
5 F’ihe! migahiña amy ze he’e, feaho ty sarotse, toloño an-tsatam-pitaroñe, henefo i fitoroña’oy.
But as for you, you must exercise habitual self-control, and not live a self-indulgent life, but do the duty of an evangelist and fully discharge the obligations of your office.
6 Toe ailin-koe enga-rano iraho henaneo, naho an-titotse ty fiengako.
I for my part am like a drink-offering which is already being poured out; and the time for my departure is now close at hand.
7 Fa nihotakotaheko i aly soay, nihenefeko i tsikiaviaviy, nivontitireko i fatokisañey.
I have gone through the glorious contest; I have run the race; I have guarded the faith.
8 Mihaja ho ahy henane zao ty sabakan-kavantañañe hatolo’ i Talè Mpizaka Mahitiy ahy amy andro zay, le tsy amako avao, fa amy ze hene hifale amy fitotsaha’ey.
From this time onward there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me, but also to all who love the thought of His Appearing.
9 Milozoha homb’amako mb’ atoa aniany;
Make an effort to come to me speedily.
10 fa naforintse’ i Demasy, ie loho mpitea ty voatse toy ro nienga mb’e Tesalonika añe; naho nimb’e Galate añe t’i Kreska vaho nimb’e Dalmatia mb’eo t’i Titosy. (aiōn g165)
For Demas has deserted me--loving, as he does, the present age--and has gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)
11 I Lioke avao ro amako atoy. Hitrifo t’i Marka vaho ampitraofo ama’o mb’etoa, amy t’ie mahasoa ahy amy fitoroñañey.
Luke is the only friend I now have with me. Call for Mark on your way and bring him with you, for he is a great help to me in my ministry.
12 Fa nahitriko mb’ Efesosy añe t’i Tikiko.
Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
13 Ihe mb’etoa, endeso i saroñe nengako añ’anjomba’ i Karpo e Troasy añey, naho o bokeo, àntsake o an-kolitseo.
When you come, bring with you the cloak which I left behind at Troas at the house of Carpus, and the books, but especially the parchments.
14 Loho nijoy ahy t’i Aleksandro mpanefe saba, fa hivalea’ i Talè mañeva o sata’eo.
Alexander the metal-worker showed bitter hostility towards me: the Lord will requite him according to his doings.
15 Itaò, fa niliere’e mafe o enta’aio.
You also should beware of him; for he has violently opposed our preaching.
16 Tsy eo ty nanozañe ahy amy fikòm-bolako valoha’ey, fonga nifary ahy. Ee t’ie tsy hasesek’ am’ iereo.
At my first defence I had no one at my side, but all deserted me. May it not be laid to their charge.
17 Fe nijohañe amako eo t’i Talè nampaozatse ahy, hañenefako i fitaroñañey, hahajanjiña’ ze kila fifeheañe. Toe rinombake am-bava’ i lionay raho.
The Lord, however, stood by me and filled me with inward strength, that through me the Message might be fully proclaimed and that all the Gentiles might hear it; and I was rescued from the lion's jaws.
18 I Talè ro hamotsots’ ahy amy ze hene sata-raty, handrombake ahy ho am-pifehean-dikera’ey. Aze ty engeñe an-tsa mb’an-tsa. Amena! (aiōn g165)
The Lord will deliver me from every cruel attack and will keep me safe in preparation for His heavenly Kingdom. To Him be the glory until the Ages of the Ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
19 Añontaneo t’i Prisilae naho i Akoila, vaho o añ’anjomba’ i Onesiforosio.
Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.
20 Nitambatse e Korinto añe t’i Erasto, fa nengako siloke e Mileto añe t’i Trofimo.
Erastus stayed in Corinth; Trophimus I left behind me at Miletus, ill.
21 Imaneo fiavy aolo’ ty asotry. Mañontane azo t’i Eobolo naho i Poda, naho i Lino naho i Klaodia vaho o longo iabio.
Make an effort to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, and so do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brethren.
22 I Talè ro hañimba ty tro’o. Ho ama’ areo abey ty hasoa. Amena.
The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you all.
