2 Timoteo 2
1 Pauluo, uve mwanango, upulue ingifu mulusungu lunolulimunikate mwa kilisite Ysu.
You then, my child, must be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 Nagha ghanoukaghapulike kulyenu jumonga mu volesi vinga, ugahatavule ku vaanhu avitiki vano vanoghile kuvavulanisia avange kange.
All that you have been taught by me in the hearing of many witnesses, you must hand on to trusty men who shall themselves, in turn, be competent to instruct others also.
3 Uhangilanilaghe nhimumuko palikimo nune, ndavule unsikali unono ughwa kilisite Yesu.
As a good soldier of Christ Jesus accept your share of suffering.
4 Nakwale unsikali junoivombata unsiki ghughughu Junoikuling`ania nhi mbombo isa vulevule isia vukalo, ulwakatuti umunoghele um`baha ghwa mweene.
Every one who serves as a soldier keeps himself from becoming entangled in the world's business--so that he may satisfy the officer who enlisted him.
5 Kange nave umunhu ighelana heene ikimbiila, naupelua ingela pano nagheline kuvingulia uvutavike.
And if any one takes part in an athletic contest, he gets no prize unless he obeys the rules.
6 Kukukangasia kuuti umulimi unyangufu avisaghe ghwa kwasia kukwupila ikighavo ikya mpeto ghwa mweene.
The harvestman who labours in the field must be the first to get a share of the crop.
7 Usaghaghe vwimila vwa iki kunonijova, ulwakuva u Mutua ikukupela uvwelefu uvwaiisi sooni.
Mark well what I am saying: the Lord will give you discernment in everything.
8 un`kumbukaghe u Yesu kilisite, kuhuma kukisina ikya Daudi,
Never forget that Jesus Christ has risen from among the dead and is a descendant of David, as is declared in the Good News which I preach.
9 juno alyasyusilue kuhuma kuvafue. Ulu kwekuling`ana nhi mhola jango ija livangili, janovwimila vwa uluno nipumika nambe kupinyua nha manyololo ndavule umunubgifu. looli ilisio lya Mguluve manyololo.
For preaching the Good News I suffer, and am even put in chains, as if I were a criminal: yet the word of God is not imprisoned.
10 Pauluo, nikuguda nhisii sooni vwimila vwa vaala vanno u Nguluve avasalwile, ulwakuti vope kange vupile uvupoki vunovulimwa kiliste Yesu palikimo nhu vwitike uvwa kusila nhakusila. (aiōnios g166)
For this reason I endure all things for the sake of God's own people; so that they also may obtain salvation--even the salvation which is in Christ Jesus--and with it eternal glory. (aiōnios g166)
11 Injovele iji jejakutwikisivua: “Nave tufwiilie palikimo nhu mweene, Tukukalagha palikimo nhu mweene kange,
Faithful is the saying: "If we died with Him, we shall also live with Him;
12 Nave tukuguda, tutema palikimo nhumweene kange nave tukun`kana umweene, ghwope kange ikutukanegha usue.
"If we patiently endure pain, we shall also share His Kingship; "If we disown Him, He will also disown us;
13 Nave natuvavitiki/ umwene ijigha kuuva mwitiki, ulwakuva nanoghile kukukana jujuo.”
"And even if our faith fails, He remains true--He cannot prove false to Himself."
14 Jighagha ghukuvakumbusia vwimilo vwa iisi. Vavurungughe pavuvulongolo pa Nguluve valeke kukaning`ana vwimila vwa masio. Ulwakuva nakwejili imbombo mu iisi kuhumilani la nhili kwevule uvunangifu kuvala vano vipulikisia.
Bring all this to men's remembrances, solemnly charging them in the presence of God not to waste time in wrangling about mere words, a course which is altogether unprofitable and tends only to the ruin of the hearers.
15 Uvombaghe nhi ngufu kukuvonosia kuuti ghwitikisivue kwa Nguluve ndavule u m`bomba mbombo juno ulwahuva naulalami kivua. livombelaghe ilisio ilyakyang`ani vunofu.
Earnestly seek to commend yourself to God as a servant who, because of his straightforward dealing with the word of truth, has no reason to feel any shame.
16 Mughalekaghe umapuling`ano agha mu iisi ghano ghilongosia kutala na kukila uvugalusi.
But from irreligious and frivolous talk hold aloof, for those who indulge in it will proceed from bad to worse in impiety,
17 Amapuling`ano ghavane ghikwilana heene lihojmuvami muvanave Himenayo nhu fileto.
and their teaching will spread like a running sore. Hymenaeus and Philetus are men of that stamp.
18 Ava ve vaanhu vano navavwaghile uvwakyang`ani, Vijora kuuti uvusyuke vuling`anisie pihumila. Visyetulania ulwitiko muvamo avaanhi.
In the matter of the truth they have gone astray, saying that the Resurrection is already past, and so they are overthrowing the faith of some.
19 Pouluo, ulwalo ulunono lwa Nguluve lukwima, Avanyavulembi uvu, “Umutua avakagwile avamweene, Ghweni Kuno ilikulikemela ilitavualya mutua anoghile pikubaghula nhu vuvotevo.”
Yet God's solid foundation stands unmoved, bearing this inscription, "The Lord knows those who really belong to Him." And this also, "Let every one who names the Name of the Lord renounce all wickedness."
20 Nyumba ijavumofu, nakwekiti mwefili i fyombe ifya sahabu nhi shaba jene. kange kwefili ifyombe ifya mapiki nhi lihanga fimo mu ifi vwimila vwa mbombo ija vwoghopua kange ifyene fimo fyefyambombo jino najavwoghopua.
Now in a great house there are not only articles of gold and silver, but also others of wood and of earthenware; and some are for specially honourable, and others for common use.
21 Nave umunhu ikuvalasia jujua kuhuma ku mbombo jino najavwoghopua, umwene kye kyombo ikya kwaghopua. Abikilue pajo, unywa mbombo kwa Mtua, kange aling`anisivue ku mbombo jila inofu.
If therefore a man keeps himself clear of these latter, he himself will be for specially honourable use, consecrated, fit for the Master's service, and fully equipped for every good work.
22 Vukimbilaghe uvunoghelua uvwa kisoleka. Uvingililaghe uvwakya ng`ani ulwitiko ulughano nha vaala vanovikun`kurikemela u Mutua ku nhumbula inono.
Keep a strong curb, however, on your youthful cravings; and strive for integrity, good faith, love, peace, in company with all who pray to the Lord with pure hearts.
23 Looli ukanaghe uvuyasu na masio ghalunanging`ano kwani ukagwile kuuti vuhola, uvuhovesi.
But avoid foolish discussions with ignorant men, knowing--as you do--that these lead to quarrels;
24 Um`bombia mbombo ghwa Mutua nanoghule mulwisaghe, Pauluo, anoghile kuuti ave muhuguku avaanhu vooni, juno anoghile pivukanisia, na pikuguda.
and a bondservant of the Lord must not quarrel, but must be inoffensive towards all men, a skilful teacher, and patient under wrongs.
25 Anoghile pikuvavulanisia ku vuhuugu vaala vanovikunka na looli u Nguluve anoghele pikuvapela ululato uluvakuka gula uvwakyang`ani.
He must speak in a gentle tone when correcting the errors of opponents, in the hope that God will at last give them repentance, for them to come to a full knowledge of the truth
26 Vaghile kukwupila uvukagusi kange kubuhila ulutegho ulwa setano, ye akulile kuuva veikolilue nhu mweene vwimila uvwa vughane vwa mweene.
and recover sober-mindedness and freedom from the Devil's snare, though they are now entrapped by him to do his will.
