2 Tesalonikafoɔ 2

1 Ɛfa yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo mmaeɛ a ɔrebɛba ne boa a wɔbɛboaboa yɛn ano akɔka ne ho no, mesrɛ mo, anuanom,

But as to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto Him,

2 mommma mo adwene mu nnyɛ mo nnaa sɛ ɛda a Awurade reba no aduru. Ebia, na obi rehyɛ saa nkɔm no anaa obi foforɔ nso gyina so reka asɛm. Anaasɛ nso wɔka sɛ yɛn nwoma a yɛtwerɛeɛ no bi mu na saa asɛm no wɔ.

we beseech you, brethren, that ye be not soon moved from your steadiness of mind, or troubled, neither by Spirit, nor by word, nor by letter, as from us, that the day of Christ is at hand.

3 Mommma obiara nnaadaa mo saa ɛkwan yi so. Saa Ɛda no remma da gye sɛ atuateɛ a ɛtwa toɔ no aba ama wɔada ɔbɔnefoɔ no a ɔbɛkɔ daa ɔsɛeɛ mu no adi.

Let not any one deceive you by any means; for it shall not come till there come an apostasy first, and the man of sin be revealed,

4 Biribiara a nnipa som na wɔbu no kronkron no, ɔbɛtia mu. Ɔbɛkorɔn ne ho wɔ ne nyinaa so na wakɔtena Onyankopɔn asɔredan mu na waka sɛ ɔno ne Onyankopɔn.

the son of perdition, who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or the object of worship; so that he sits as God in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

5 Monkae sɛ ɛberɛ a me ne mo wɔ hɔ no, na metaa ka yeinom nyinaa kyerɛ mo.

Do ye not remember, that when I was with you, I told you these things?

6 Nanso, biribi na atwe no asɛn, na sɛ ɛberɛ no duru a, ɔbɛba.

And ye know what now hindereth him from being revealed in his own time.

7 Ɔbɔnefoɔ no di ne dwuma dada na deɛ ɛbɛba no remma da gye sɛ wɔayi deɛ ɔkura ne mu no afiri hɔ.

For the mystery of iniquity is already working, only there is one that hindreth till he be taken out of the way.

8 Ɛno ansa na ɔbɔnefoɔ no bɛba, na Awurade Yesu nam nʼanom home so bɛtu no agu, na ɔde ne ba a ɔbɛba no mu animuonyam asɛe no.

And then the wicked one shall be detected, whom the Lord will destroy by the breath of his mouth, and abolish by the brightness of his coming:

9 Ɔbɔnefoɔ no nam ɔbonsam tumi so na ɛbɛba na wabɛyɛ anwanwadeɛ ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ,

who comes, through the efficacy of Satan, with all kind of lying power, and signs,

10 na ɔnam bɔne so adaadaa wɔn a wɔbɛyera no. Wɔbɛyera, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔannye nokorɛ no anto mu, annɔ nokorɛ no amma wɔannya nkwa.

and wonders, and with all iniquitous fraud, among those that shall perish; because they received not the love of the truth, by which they might be saved.

11 Yei enti, Onyankopɔn resoma nnaadaa tumi ma akɔhyɛ wɔn mu ama wɔagye nsɛm a ɛnyɛ nokorɛ adi.

And for this cause God will send upon them the efficacy of error, so that they shall themselves believe the lie:

12 Awieeɛ no ara ne sɛ, wɔn a wɔnnye nokorɛ no nni na wɔn ani gye bɔne ho no, wɔbɛbu wɔn atɛn.

that they may all be condemned, who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in iniquity.

13 Anuanom, ɛsɛ sɛ ɛberɛ biara yɛda Onyankopɔn ase ma mo a Awurade dɔ mo no. Ɛfiri sɛ, ɛnam Honhom no tumi so na Onyankopɔn yii mo sɛ nnipa a modi ɛkan a wɔbɛgye mo nkwa na wɔayɛ mo Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ kronkron wɔ mo gyidie a mowɔ wɔ nokorɛ mu no mu.

But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord; because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation, through sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth:

14 Onyankopɔn nam Asɛmpa no so frɛɛ mo sɛdeɛ mo ne Awurade Yesu Kristo bɛtena nʼanimuonyam no mu.

to which He hath called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15 Enti, anuanom, monnyina pintinn na monka mo ho mmata nokorɛ a yɛkyerɛɛ mo wɔ asɛnka ne yɛn nwoma no mu no.

Therefore, brethren, be steady, and hold fast the traditions, which ye have been taught, whether by word or by our letter.

16 Yɛn Awurade Yesu Kristo no ankasa ne yɛn Agya Onyankopɔn a ɔdɔ yɛn na ɔnam nʼadom mu ahyɛ yɛn daa nkuran ne anidasoɔ pa no, (aiōnios g166)

And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and our God and Father, who hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation, and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts, (aiōnios g166)

17 nkyekyere mo werɛ, na ɔnhyɛ mo den asɛm ne adwuma pa nyinaa mu.

and establish you in every good word and work.
