Timotheo II 2
1 Oo, Timotheo, morwaaka, tia mo nonofong e Keresete Jesu o go e neileng.
Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.
2 Gonne o tshwanetse go ruta ba bangwe dilo tse wena le ba bangwe lo nkutlwileng ke bua ka tsone. Ruta batho ba ba ikanyegang boammaaruri jo bogolo jo le bone ba tlaa bo rutang ba bangwe.
And those (doctrines) which thou hast heard from me by many witnesses, them commit to faithful men, who are also able to teach others.
3 Tsaya seabe sa gago sa go boga jaaka lesole le le siameng la ga Jesu Keresete, fela jaaka ke dira,
And endure evils as a good soldier of Jeshu Meshiha.
4 mme jaaka lesole la ga Keresete o se ka wa itlhakatlhakanya le dilo tsa selefatshe, gonne ga o kake wa itumedisa ene yo o go kwadileng mo mophatong wa batlhabani ba gagwe.
No man serveth as a soldier, and entangleth himself with the affairs of the world, that he might please him who hath chosen him.
5 Latela melao ya Morena go dira tiro ya gagwe, felajaaka mosiani a ka latela melao kgotsa a bonwa molato mme a tlhoke go gapa sekgele.
And if one contendeth, he is not crowned, unless according to his law he contend.
6 Dira thata, jaaka molemi yo o duelwang sentle ka go roba thobo e kgolo.
It becometh the husbandman who laboureth that he should first eat of his fruits.
7 Akanya ka ditshwantsho tse tharo tse, mme a Morena a go thuse go tlhaloganya gore di amana jang le botshelo jwa gago.
Understand what I say to thee. Our Lord give thee wisdom in all things.
8 O se ka wa lebala ntlha ya botlhokwa ya gore Jesu Keresete e ne e le Motho, wa lotso lwa ga Kgosi Dafide; le gore e ne e le Modimo, jaaka go supilwe ke boammaaruri jwa gore o tsogile gape mo baswing.
Remember Jeshu Meshiha, that he arose from among the dead, he who is of the seed of David, according to my gospel;
9 Ke ka ntlha ya gore ke rerile boammaaruri jo bogolo jo, ke gone ka moo ke leng fano mo matshwenyegong ebile ke tsentswe mo kgolegelong jaaka serukhutlhi. Mme Lefoko la Modimo lone ga le a golegwa, le fa nna ke golegilwe.
for which I endure evils unto bonds, as an evil-doer: but the word of Aloha is not bound.
10 Ke rata thata go boga, fa moo go ka tlisa poloko le kgalalelo ya bosakhutleng ka Keresete Jesu mo go ba Modimo o ba tlhophileng. (aiōnios g166)
Therefore I endure every thing on account of the elect, that they also may find salvation in Jeshu Meshiha, with the glory that is eternal. (aiōnios g166)
11 Ke gomoditswe ke boammaaruri jo, gore fa ke boga re bo re swela Keresete go raya gore re tlaa simolola go nna le ene kwa legodimong.
Faithful is the word: For if we be dead with him, With him also we shall live;
12 Mme fa re a kanya gore go mo direla ka nako eno go bokete, gakologelwang gore letsatsi lengwe re tlaa nna Nae re bo re busa Nae. Mme fa re lesa ka ntlha ya go boga, re fularela Keresete, mme le ene o tshwanetse go re fularela.
And if we endure, We shall also reign with him; But, if we deny him, He also will deny us!
13 Mme le fa re le bokoa thata mo re se kakeng ra salelwa ke tumelo epe, o nna a le boikanyego mo go rona ebile otlaa re thusa, gonne ga a kake a re itatola rona ba re leng bontlha bongwe jwa gagwe, mme o tlaa diragatsa ditsholofetso tsa gagwe mo go rona ka malatsi otlhe.
And if we believe him not, He in his faithfulness abideth; For deny himself he cannot.
14 Gakolola batho ba gago dintlha tse dikgolo tse, mme ba lae mo leineng la Morena gore ba se ka ba ganetsanya mo dilong tse di sa tlhokegeng. Dikganetsanyo tse di ntseng jalo di a timetsa ebile ga di na mosola, ebile di a bolaya.
Of these (truths) remind them, and testify before our Lord, that they contend not with unprofitable words, to the overturning of those who hear them.
15 Dira thata gore Modimo o tle o go reye o re, “O dirile sentle.” Nna modiri yo o siameng, yo o sa tlhokeng go tlhabiwa ke ditlhong fa Modimo o tlhatlhoba tiro ya gago. Itse se Lefoko la One le se buang le se le se rayang.
And be careful to establish thyself perfectly before Aloha, a workman without shame, preaching rightly the word of truth.
16 O tshabe dikgang tsa boeleele tse di gogelang batho mo sebeng sa go galefelana.
From vain words which have no utility in them withdraw; for they add greatly to the wickedness of those who are occupied with them.
17 Dilo di tlaa buiwa tse di tukang di bile di utlwisa ntho e e kekelang Humenaio le Feleto, mo go rateng dikganetsanyo, ke batho ba ba ntseng jalo.
And their words as an eating cancer will lay hold upon many: but one of them is Hymeneos, and another Philetos,
18 Ba tlogetse tsela ya boammaaruri, ba rera maaka a gore tsogo ya baswi e setse e diragetse; ebile ba koafaditse tumelo ya bangwe ba ba ba dumelang.
who have erred from the truth, saying, that the resurrection of the dead hath been, and the faith of some overturning.
19 Mme boammaaruri jwa Modimo bo nitame jaaka lefika je legolo, ebile ga go na sepe se se ka bo tshikhinyang. Ke lefika la motheo le le nang le mafoko a mo go lone: “Morena o itse ba tota e leng ba gagwe,” mme “motho yo o ipitsang Mokeresete ga aa tshwanela go dira dilo tse di sa siamang.”
But the true foundation of Aloha standeth; and it hath this signature: And the Lord knoweth them who are his. And, Let every one who invoketh the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.
20 Mo lwapeng lwa mohumi go na le dijana tse di dirilweng ka gauta le selefera le tse dingwe di dirilwe ka logong le ka letsopa. Dijana tse di tlhwatlhwa kgolo di dirisediwa baeng, mme tse di tlhwatlhwa e potlana di dirisiwa mo tlung ya kapeelo kgotsa go tsenya matlakala.
But in a great house there are not vessels of gold only or of silver, but also of wood, also of clay: of them (some are) to honour, and of them (some) to dishonour.
21 Fa o fularela sebe o tlaa nna jaaka sengwe sa dijana tse di dirilweng ka gauta e e itshekileng, tse e leng tsone tse di siameng mo tlung, gore Keresete a tle a go dirisetse maikaelelo a gagwe a magolo.
If a man then purify himself from these, he will be a pure vessel unto honour, fitted for the use of his Lord, and prepared for every good work.
22 Tshaba sengwe le sengwe se se ka go nayang dikgopolo tse di bosula tse makawana gantsi ba nang le tsone, mme o nne gaufi le sengwe le sengwe se se go dirang gore o batle go dira tshiamo. Nna le tumelo le lorato, mme o nne botsalano le ba ba ratang Morena ebile ba na le dipelo tse di itshekileng.
From all the lusts of youth escape; and pursue after righteousness, and faith, and charity, and peace, with them who call upon the Lord with a pure heart.
23 Gape ka re, o se ka wa tsena mo dikganetsanyong tsa boeleele tse di tsosang kgang mo bathong di bo di ba galefisa.
From foolish controversies which are without instruction withdraw; for thou knowest that they beget strifes.
24 Batho ba Modimo ga ba a tshwanela go omana; ba tshwanetse go nna tshiamo, e le baruti ba ba pelotelele mo go ba ba molato.
But a servant of the Lord oweth not to strive, but to be gentle towards every man, and teaching, and long-suffering,
25 Ikokobetse fa o leka go ruta ba ba akabalang mabapi le boammaaruri. Gonne fa o bua le bone ka bonolo le ka maitseo ka thuso ya Modimo, go ka diragala gore ba tlogele megopolo ya bone e e sa siamang mme ba dumele se e leng boammaaruri.
that he may instruct them who would contend against him with meekness, if by any means Aloha may give them conversion, and they may acknowledge the truth,
26 Mme ba tlaa itharabologelwa mme ba falole mo serung sa botlhanka sa ga Satane sa go leofa, se o se dirisang go ba tshwara ka nako nngwe le nngwe e o e ratang, mme jalo ba ka simolola go dira go rata ga Modimo.
and be mindful of themselves, and remove from the snare of Satana, by whom they have been entrapped at his will.
