2 Xiimotewos 2
1 Kanaafuu yaa ilma ko, ayyaana Kiristoos Yesuusiin jabaadhu.
Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus:
2 Waan fuula dhuga baatota baayʼee duratti narraa dhageesse sana namoota amanamoo kanneen warra kaan barsiisuu dandaʼanitti imaanaa kenni.
And the things which thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, the same commend to faithful men, who shall be fit to teach others also.
3 Atis akkuma loltuu jabaa kan Kiristoos Yesuusiitti nu wajjin dhiphadhu.
Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 Namni loltummaan tajaajilu kam iyyuu ajajaa isaa gammachiisuu yaala malee dhimma jireenyaatiin of hin xaxu.
No man, being a soldier to God, entangleth himself with secular businesses; that he may please him to whom he hath engaged himself.
5 Akkasumas dorgomaan tokko yoo akka malutti dorgome malee gonfoo hin argatu.
For he also that striveth for the mastery, is not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 Qonnaan bulaan jabaatee hojjetus ija qooddachuutti nama jalqabaa taʼuu qaba.
The husbandman, that laboureth, must first partake of the fruits.
7 Waan ani sitti himu kana qalbeeffadhu; Gooftaan waan hunda keessatti hubannaa siif kennaatii.
Understand what I say: for the Lord will give thee in all things understanding.
8 Yesuus Kiristoos isa warra duʼan keessaa kaafame, isa sanyii Daawit irraa dhalate yaadadhu. Kun wangeela koo
Be mindful that the Lord Jesus Christ is risen again from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel.
9 kan ani isaaf jedhee akka nama yakka hojjete tokkootti hamma foncaan hidhamuutti dhiphachaafii jiruu dha. Dubbiin Waaqaa garuu hin hidhamu.
Wherein I labour even unto bands, as an evildoer; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Kanaafuu akka warri filataman fayyina Kiristoos Yesuusiin taʼe sana ulfina bara baraa wajjin argataniif ani isaaniif jedhee waan hundumaa nan obsa. (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with heavenly glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 Dubbichi amanamaan akkana jedha: Nu isa wajjin yoo duune, isa wajjin ni jiraanna;
A faithful saying: for if we be dead with him, we shall live also with him.
12 nu yoo obsine, isa wajjin ni moona. Nu yoo isa ganne, innis nu gana.
If we suffer, we shall also reign with him. If we deny him, he will also deny us.
13 Nu yoo amanamoo taʼuu baanne, inni amanamaa taʼee jiraata; inni of ganuu hin dandaʼuutii.
If we believe not, he continueth faithful, he can not deny himself.
14 Wantoota kanneen isaan yaadachiisi; waaʼee jechootaatiinis akka wal hin lolleef fuula Waaqaa duratti isaan akeekkachiisi; wanni akkasii warra dhagaʼan ni diiga malee waa tokko illee hin fayyaduutii.
Of these things put them in mind, charging them before the Lord. Contend not in words, for it is to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Atis dubbii dhugaa sana sirriitti qabachuudhaan hojjetaa qoratamee fudhatame kan itti hin qaanofne taʼiitii fuula Waaqaa duratti of dhiʼeessuuf tattaaffadhu.
Carefully study to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.
16 Garuu dubbii faayidaa hin qabne irraa fagaadhu; dubbiin akkasii ittuma caalchisee nama Waaqaa taʼuu irraa nama fageessaatii.
But shun profane and vain babblings: for they grow much towards ungodliness.
17 Barsiisni isaaniis akka dhukkuba gaangiriinii babalʼachaa deema. Himenewoosii fi Filexoosis isaan keessatti argamu;
And their speech spreadeth like a canker: of whom are Hymeneus and Philetus:
18 isaanis duʼaa kaʼuun taʼee darbeera jechuudhaan dhugaa irraa fagaataniiru. Amantii namoota tokko tokkoos ni balleessu.
Who have erred from the truth, saying, that the resurrection is past already, and have subverted the faith of some.
19 Garuu hundeen Waaqaa hin sochoofamne kan chaappaa, “Gooftaan warra kan isaa taʼan ni beeka,” akkanumas “Namni maqaa Gooftaa waammatu hundi hammina irraa haa deebiʼu” jedhuun chaappeffame jabaatee dhaabateera.
But the sure foundation of God standeth firm, having this seal: the Lord knoweth who are his; and let every one depart from iniquity who nameth the name of the Lord.
20 Mana guddaa tokko keessa miʼa warqeetii fi meetii qofa utuu hin taʼin, miʼi mukaatii fi suphees jira; kana keessaas tokko tokko ulfinaaf, kaan immoo salphinaaf oola.
But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and earth: and some indeed unto honour, but some unto dishonour.
21 Namni tokko yoo salphina kana irraa of qulqulleesse, inni miʼa ulfinaa kan qulqulleeffame, kan Gooftaa isaa fayyaduu fi kan hojii gaarii kam iyyuu hojjechuuf qopheeffame taʼa.
If any man therefore shall cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified and profitable to the Lord, prepared unto every good work.
22 Atis hawwii hamaa yeroo dargaggummaa irraa baqadhu; warra garaa qulqulluun Gooftaa waammatan wajjin qajeelummaa, amantii, jaalalaa fi nagaa duukaa buʼi.
But flee thou youthful desires, and pursue justice, faith, charity, and peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 Falmii faayidaa hin qabnee fi gowwummaa keessa hin seenin; kun akka lola fidu atuu ni beektaatii.
And avoid foolish and unlearned questions, knowing that they beget strifes.
24 Garbichi Gooftaa kan nama hundumaaf garaa laafu, kan barsiisuu dandaʼuu fi obsa qabeessa taʼuu qaba malee kan namaan wal lolu taʼuu hin qabu.
But the servant of the Lord must not wrangle: but be mild towards all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 Innis akka Waaqni qalbii jijjiirrannaa gara dhugaa beekuutti isaan geessu isaaniif kennu abdachaa warra isaan morman garraamummaan sirreessuu qaba;
With modesty admonishing them that resist the truth: if peradventure God may give them repentance to know the truth,
26 akkasiinis isaan qalbii horatanii kiyyoo diiyaabiloos kan akka isaan fedhii isaa guutaniif isaan boojiʼe sana jalaa baʼu.
And they may recover themselves from the snares of the devil, by whom they are held captive at his will.
