2 Timoteo 4
1 Migyina Onyankopɔn ne Kristo Yesu a obebu ateasefo ne awufo ntɛn, ne ba a ɔbɛba ne nʼahenni no so hyɛ wo sɛ,
I charge thee, before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead, by his coming, and his kingdom:
2 ka asɛm no, na bere biara gyina ne ka mu dennen yi ntɛn. Ka anim, tu fo na kyerɛkyerɛ wɔ boasetɔ mu.
Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine.
3 Bere bi bɛba a nnipa rentie nkyerɛkyerɛ pa no, na mmom wobedi wɔn ara wɔn asɛde akyi na wɔaboaboa akyerɛkyerɛfo a wɔbɛka nsɛm a wɔrehwehwɛ atie no ano, na wɔaka akyerɛ wɔn.
For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears:
4 Wɔbɛpo nokware no tie, na wɔatie anansesɛm.
And will indeed turn away their hearing from the truth, but will be turned unto fables.
5 Nanso mmere nyinaa mu no, ɛsɛ sɛ wohwɛ wo ho so yiye. Mia wʼani wɔ amanehunu mu. Yɛ ɔsɛmpakafo adwuma na di wo dwuma nyinaa sɛ Onyankopɔn somfo.
But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill thy ministry. Be sober.
6 Wogu so rehwie me sɛ afɔre ahwiesa, na bere abɛn sɛ migyaw asetena yi.
For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand.
7 Ɔko pa no, mako, mmirika no, mawie tu; gyidi no makora.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
8 Afei nea ɛwɔ ma me ne nkonim akyɛde, trenee ahenkyɛw a Awurade a ɔyɛ Otemmufo treneeni no de bɛma me da no, ɛnyɛ me nko, na mmom, wɔn a wɔatena ase wɔ ɔdɔ mu atwɛn no no nyinaa.
As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.
9 Bɔ mmɔden bra me nkyɛn ntɛm.
Make haste to come to me quickly.
10 Dema dɔɔ nnɛ wiase yi ma ɔyɛɛ saa guan gyaa me hɔ kɔɔ Tesalonika. Kreske kɔɔ Galatia, Tito nso kɔɔ Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)
For Demas hath left me, loving this world, and is gone to Thessalonica: Crescens into Galatia, Titus into Dalmatia. (aiōn g165)
11 Luka nko ara na ɔne me wɔ ha. Fa Marko ka wo ho na wo ne no mmra, efisɛ obetumi aboa me adwuma no yɛ.
Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.
12 Mesomaa Tihiko kɔɔ Efeso.
But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
13 Sɛ woreba a, fa mʼatade a migyaw wɔ Karpo nkyɛn wɔ Troa no brɛ me. Ɛyɛ a, fa me nwoma mmobɔwee no nso ka ho, ne titiriw no nea wɔde aboa nwoma yɛe no.
The cloak that I left at Troas, with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, especially the parchments.
14 Aleksandro, kɔbere dwumfo no, haw me papaapa; Awurade betua no nea ɔyɛɛ no so ka.
Alexander the coppersmith hath done me much evil: the Lord will reward him according to his works:
15 Ɛyɛ a hwɛ wo ho yiye wɔ ne ho, efisɛ na ɔsɔre tia nsɛm a yɛka no mu denneennen.
Whom do thou also avoid, for he hath greatly withstood our words.
16 Bere a mereyi me ho ano no, obiara ammoa me. Wɔn nyinaa guan gyaa me. Onyankopɔn mfa nkyɛ wɔn.
At my first answer no man stood with me, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to their charge.
17 Nanso Awurade ne me tena maa me ahoɔden ma mitumi kaa asɛm no kyerɛɛ amanamanmufo ma wotiei. Ogyee me fii gyata anom.
But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that by me the preaching may be accomplished, and that all the Gentiles may hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
18 Na Awurade begye me afi bɔne nyinaa mu na ɔde me akɔ ɔsoro Ahenni no mu wɔ asomdwoe mu. Ɔno na anuonyam nka no daa daa. Amen. (aiōn g165)
The Lord hath delivered me from every evil work: and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
19 Kyia Priska ne Akwila ne Onesiforo fifo nyinaa ma me.
Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.
20 Erasto kaa Korinto na migyaw Trofimo wɔ Mileto, efisɛ na ɔyare.
Erastus remained at Corinth. And Trophimus I left sick at Miletus.
21 Bɔ mmɔden bra ansa na awɔwbere adu. Eubulo ne Pude ne Lino ne Klaudia ne anuanom no nyinaa kyiakyia wo.
Make haste to come before winter Eubulus and Pudens, and Linus and Claudia, and all the brethren, salute thee.
22 Awurade ne wo honhom ntena. Adom nka mo nyinaa.
The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.
