¹Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.

¹Ane ompi' -ompi' hampepangalaa' -ta to tuwu' batua, tudui' -ra bona mpobila' pai' mpengkorui maradika-ra hi butu nyala-na, bona neo' mpai' ria tauna to mporuge' hanga' Alata'ala ba mporuge' tudui' -ta.

²And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.

²Ane rapa' -na maradika-ra to Kristen wo'o-i-hawo, neo' ra'uli' hewa toi: "Uma mingki' kutuku' hawa' -na, apa' hingka ompi' -ku moto-i-hawo hi rala Pue'." Agina kaloo-lompea' lau-di pongkamu-ra bago maradika-ra, apa' maradika to rapobago-ki toe, ompi' hampepangalaa' -ra to rapoka'ahi'.

³If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;

³Ria moto-ra hantongo' to mpokeni tudui' to mosisala hante tudui' -ta. Uma rapangalai' tudui' to makono to ngkai Pue' -ta, Pue' Yesus Kristus. Uma rapangalai' lolita to mpotudui' -ta mengkoru hi Pue' Ala.

⁴He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,

⁴Tauna to hewa toe, mengkakapante-pante-ra-wadi, uma ra'incai napa-napa. Konoa-ra, ntora momehono' pai' mpali' pome'anua lolita-wadi. Ngkai tudui' -ra toe, pai' alaa-na wori' tauna mohingi', motuda', metuntui', merai',

⁵Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

⁵pai' momepodaa'. Pekiri tauna toera uma-pi katonoa, uma ra'incai tudui' to makono. Ra'uli' -rana, ma'ala-ra mporata rasi' ngkai po'agama-ra.

⁶But godliness with contentment is great gain.

⁶Makono moto-di, po'agama-ta mpokeni rasi' bohe, asala rodo-mi nono-ta hante napa to ria hi kita'.

⁷For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

⁷Apa' uma ria hanyalaa to takeni tumai hi rala dunia'. Pai' uma wo'o mpai' ria hanyalaa to takeni mpalai.

⁸And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

⁸Jadi', ane ria-damo pongkoni' pai' pohea-ta, hono' -mi-hawo.

⁹But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

⁹Aga tauna to doko' mo'ua', mojoli-ra rasori mpobabehi jeko', wori' kahinaa to mpohilu' -ra. Kahinaa-ra toe uma ria kalaua-na, mpokeni silaka lau-wadi. Ka'omea-na, manusia' to doko' mo'ua', monawu' hi rala jeko', alaa-na silaka-ramo.

¹⁰For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

¹⁰Apa' ngkai kampokahina-ta doi mehupa' wori' nyala kehi to dada'a. Ria mpu'u tauna to sese' mpali' doi, alaa-na meleli' -ramo ngkai pepangala' -ra, pai' wori' kasusaa' mporumpa' -ra.

¹¹But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

¹¹Aga iko Timotius, batua Alata'ala-moko-kona. Pokalaa tuwu' -nu ngkai hawe'ea kehi to hewa toe we'i lou. Huduwukui mpotuku' po'ingku to monoa'. Mengkoru hi Alata'ala. Perohoi pepangala' -nu hi Kristus pai' ahi' -nu hi doo. Tari hi rala kasusaa', mo'alusu' kehi hi doo.

¹²Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

¹²Neo' nubahakai mpotuku' ohea pepangala' -ta, perohoi ngkakamu katuwua' to lompe' duu' kahae-hae-na. Apa' toe-mi patuju-na Alata'ala mpokio' -ko jadi' bagia-na, bona mporata-ko katuwua' to lompe' toe. Nakio' -ko jadi' bagia-na, pai' hi nyanyoa wori' tauna mpolia' nu'uli' -mi kanupangala' -na Pue' Yesus.

¹³I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;

¹³Jadi', toi-mi paresa' -ku hi iko Timotius. Kuparesai' -ko hi nyanyoa Alata'ala to mpowai' katuwua' hi butu nyala-na, pai' hi nyanyoa Kristus Yesus to mpo'uli' posabi' to makono hi nyanyoa Pontius Pilatus.

¹⁴That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

¹⁴Kuparesai' -ko mpotuku' hawe'ea hawa' toe hante uma ria ruke-na ba kasalaia' -na, duu' hi karata-na nculii' Pue' -ta Yesus Kristus mpai'.

¹⁵Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

¹⁵Eo karata-na Pue' -ta, Alata'ala moto to mpakatantu ntuku' konoa-na moto. Hadudua-na Hi'a-wadi to mokuasa, to natao ra'une', Magau' ngkai hawe'ea magau', Pue' ngkai hawe'ea pue'.

¹⁶Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

¹⁶Hadudua-na Hi'a-wadi to uma ria kamatea-na. Mo'oha' -i hi rala hini to uma mowo pehini-na. Uma haduaa to ma'ala mpomohui' -i ba mpohilo-i, apa' uma-i kahiloa. Muntu' Hi'a-wadi to natao rabila' pai' to natao moparenta duu' kahae-hae-na. Amin! Wae mpu'u-hana!

¹⁷Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

¹⁷Ane tauna to mo'ua' hi rala dunia' toi, tudui' -ra bona neo' molangko nono-ra pai' neo' ncarumaka rewa dunia', apa' rewa dunia' uma ria katoroa' -na. Agina ncarumaka-ra Alata'ala to mpowai' -ta hawe'ea rasi' hante uma ria huka' -na bona tapokagoe'.

¹⁸That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

¹⁸Paresai' -ra bona mpobabehi oa' gau' to lompe', mpotulungi doo, jole' mewai', pai' lompe' nono-ra.

¹⁹Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

¹⁹Apa' ane lompe' po'ingku-ra hewa toe, ma'ala-mi ta'uli': mporumpu-ra rewa to lompe' hi rala suruga, to ma'ala rasarumaka hi eo mpeno-na, pai' mporata-ra katuwua' to lompe' mpu'u.

²⁰O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:

²⁰Timotius, Alata'ala mposarumaka-ko mpokeni tudui' to makono. Jadi', jaga lompe' tudui' toe, bona neo' mpai' hema to mpobalii'. Neo' nupo'ema' -ra to mpokeni lolita to uma ria tuju-na pai' to uma mpokeni-ta mengkoru hi Pue' Ala. Neo' nupo'ema' -ra to mpokeni tudui' to mosisala hante tudui' to makono. Ra'uli' -rana, ria inca-ra, ntaa' uma-di makono-e.

²¹Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

²¹Ra'uli' ria inca-ra, hiaa' ngkai petuku' -ra hi inca-ra toe, meleli' lau-ramo ngkai pepangala' -ra hi Yesus. Pue' mpogane' -koi omea. Hudu rei-mi.
