¹This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

¹[Ny amin'ny fihemorana any am-parany,] Fa aoka ho fantatrao izao: fa any am-parany any dia hisy andro mahory.

²For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

²Fa ny olona ho tia tena, ho tia vola, ho mpandoka tena, mpiavonavona, miteny ratsy, tsy manoa ray sy reny, tsy misaotra, tsy manaja izay masina, [ Gr. manao blasfemia; izahao Mat. 9,3]

³Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

³tsy manam-pitiavana, mpanontolo fo, mpanendrikendrika, tsy mahonom-po, lozabe, tsy tia ny tsara,

⁴Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

⁴mpamadika, kirina, mpieboebo, tia ny fahafinaretana mihoatra noho ny fitiavany an'Andriamanitra,

⁵Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

⁵manana ny endriky ny toe-panahy araka an'Andriamanitra, nefa nandà ny heriny; ireny koa dia halaviro.

⁶For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

⁶Fa isan'ireny izay misokosoko miditra any an-tranon'ny sasany ka mahalasa ho babo ny vehivavy adaladala, vesaran'ny fahotana, entin'ny filàna maro,

⁷Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

⁷mianatra mandrakariva, nefa tsy mahatratra ny fahalalana ny marina.

⁸Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

⁸Ary tahaka ny nanoheran'i Jana sy Jambra an'i Mosesy no anoheran'ireo koa ny fahamarinana, dia olona maloto saina sady tsy manam-pinoana marina.

⁹But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.

⁹Kanefa tsy handroso intsony izy; fa ny hadalany dia haseho amin'ny olona rehetra, tahaka ny an'ireo koa.

¹⁰But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,

¹⁰[Famporisihana an'i Timoty handroso tsara araka ny efa nataony ihany] Fa ianao kosa dia efa nanaraka tsara ny fampianarako, ny fitondran-tenako, ny fisainako, ny finoako, ny fandeferako, ny fitiavako, ny faharetako,

¹¹Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.

¹¹ny nanenjehana ahy, ny fahoriana izay nanjo ahy tany Antiokia, tany Ikonioma, tany Lystra, dia ny fanenjehana izay niaretako; ary ny Tompo nahafaka ahy tamin'izany rehetra izany.

¹²Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

¹²Eny, izay rehetra te-ho velona amin'ny toe-panahy araka an'Andriamanitra, izay ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy, dia henjehina.

¹³But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

¹³Fa ny ratsy fanahy sy ny mpanoloky kosa dia handroso hiharatsiratsy kokoa sady mamitaka no fitahina.

¹⁴But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

¹⁴Fa ianao kosa dia mahareta amin'izay zavatra nianaranao sy nampinoana anao, satria fantatrao izay nampianatra anao izany;

¹⁵And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

¹⁵fa hatry ny fony vao zaza ianao dia efa nahalala ny Soratra Masina, izay mampahahendry anao ho amin'ny famonjena amin'ny finoana izay ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy.

¹⁶All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

¹⁶Izay soratra rehetra nomen'ny tsindrimandrin'Andriamanitra dia mahasoa koa ho fampianarana, ho fandresen-dahatra, ho fanitsiana izay diso, ho fitaizana amin'ny fahamarinana,mba ho tanteraka ny olon'Andriamanitra, ho vonona tsara ho amin'ny asa tsara rehetra.

¹⁷That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

¹⁷mba ho tanteraka ny olon'Andriamanitra, ho vonona tsara ho amin'ny asa tsara rehetra.
