¹I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

¹Eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra sy Kristy Jesosy, Izay hitsara ny velona sy ny maty, ary noho ny amin'ny fisehoany sy ny fanjakany, no ananarako anao mafy:

²Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

²mitoria ny teny, mazotoa, na amin'ny fotoana, na tsy amin'ny fotoana, mandrese lahatra, mamporisiha, mananara mafy amin'ny fahari-po sy ny fampianarana rehetra.

³For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

³Fa ho avy ny andro izay tsy hahazakan'ny olona ny fampianarana tsy misy kilema; fa hangidihidy sofina izy, dia hamory mpampianatra ho azy araka ny filany; [ Gr. salama]

⁴And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

⁴ary hampiala ny sofiny amin'ny teny marina tokoa izy ka hivily ho amin'ny anganongano.

⁵But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

⁵Fa ianao kosa mahonona tena amin'ny zavatra rehetra, miareta fahoriana, ataovy ny asan'ny evanjelista, tanteraho ny fanompoanao.

⁶For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

⁶Fa izaho dia efa hatolotra sahady, ary efa mba akaiky ny andro fialàko. [ Gr. haidina ho fanatitra aidina]

⁷I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:

⁷Efa niady ny ady tsara aho; nahatanteraka ny fihazakazahana aho; nitahiry ny finoana aho;

⁸Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

⁸hatrizao dia tehirizina ho ahy ny satro-boninahitry ny fahamarinana, izay homen ny Tompo, Mpitsara marina, ho ahy amin izay andro izay; ary tsy ho ahy ihany, fa ho an'izay rehetra tia ny fisehoany koa.

⁹Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:

⁹[Fanaovam-beloma sy hafatra] Mazotoa hankatỳ amiko faingana ianao;

¹⁰For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.

¹⁰fa Demasy efa nandao ahy, satria tia izao fiainana izao izy ka lasa nankany Tesalonika; Kreska nankany Galatia, Titosy nankany Dalmatia.

¹¹Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.

¹¹Lioka ihany no ato amiko. Alao Marka, ka ento miaraka aminao, fa mahasoa ahy amin'ny fanompoana izy.

¹²And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus.

¹²Tykiko dia nirahiko ho any Efesosy.

¹³The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments.

¹³Ilay kapôty navelako tany Troasy tao amin'i Karpo, dia ento, raha mankaty ianao, ary ny boky, indrindra fa ireo boky hoditra.

¹⁴Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:

¹⁴Aleksandro, mpanefy varahina, efa nanisy ratsy ahy be loatra; ny Tompo hamaly azy araka ny asany;

¹⁵Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.

¹⁵tandremonao ihany izy iny, fa nanohitra fatratra ny teninay.

¹⁶At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge.

¹⁶Tamin'ny nandaharako voalohany hanala tsiny ny tenako dia tsy nisy nomba ahy, fa nandao ahy avokoa izy rehetra (aza mba isaina ho helony anie izany).

¹⁷Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

¹⁷Kanefa ny Tompo nitsangana teo anilako ka nampahery ahy, mba hotanterahina tokoa amin'ny ataoko ny fitorian-teny, ary mba ho ren'ny jentilisa rehetra izany; ary izaho novonjena tao am-bavan'ny liona.

¹⁸And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

¹⁸Ary ny Tompo hanafaka ahy amin'ny asa ratsy rehetra ka hamonjy ahy ho any amin'ny fanjakany any an-danitra; ho Azy anie ny voninahitra mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena.

¹⁹Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.

¹⁹Manaova veloma amin'i Prisila sy Akoila mbamin'ny ankohonan'i Onesiforosy;

²⁰Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.

²⁰Erasto nitoetra tany Korinto; fa Trofimo nilaozako tany Mileto, satria narary izy.

²¹Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.

²¹Mazotoa hankatỳ alohan'ny ririnina. Manao veloma anao Eobolo sy Poda sy Lino sy Klaodia mbamin'ny rahalahy rehetra.Ho amin'ny fanahinao anie ny Tompo. Ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana.

²²The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

²²Ho amin'ny fanahinao anie ny Tompo. Ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana.
