¹But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come.

¹Zhanes tu mishto, ke mai anglal sar te avel O Kristo avela trutno vriama.

²For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

²Ke le manush rodena swako pengo mishtimos, avela lenge drago lenge, ai avela lenge drago le love, bariarenape, ai barimatange avena, ai dena duma nasul pa Del, ai chi mai pachana o mui penge niamongo, ai chi naisina anda kancheste, ai chi respektina le dieli kai si swunto,

³without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good,

³nas le drago iek kavreske, ai bi milako, ai xoxavena sagda, ai kerena chingara, ai chi avela lenge drago o lashimos,

⁴traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;

⁴ai avena defial nasul ai mangen te maren ai dukhaven kodola manushen kai si lashe, ai avena nasul penge vortachensa, ai xoliavona sigo, ai avena bare barimatange, ai avela lenge drago mai but e lumia ke sar O Del.

⁵holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power therefore. From these also turn away.

⁵Zhana ande khangeri numa chi pachanape so ashunena. Ashun, durion katar kasavendar manush.

⁶For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts,

⁶Ai uni anda lende den andel khera, ai thon zor pel zhuvlia le kovlia le bezexalia kai si le andel ginduria dieli bi malade,

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

⁷zhuvlia kai roden sagda te sichon, numa kai shoxar chi aresle te zhanen o chachimos.

⁸And even as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also withstand the truth. Men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith.

⁸Sa sar o Jannes ai o Jambres kai chi lenaspe pala Moses. Sakadia kadala manush chi lenpe pala chachimos: won si manush kai lenge goji nai lashi, ai lengo pachamos chi mol kanchi.

⁹But they shall proceed no further. For their folly shall be evident unto all men, as theirs also came to be.

⁹Numa chi zhana dur: ke sa e lumia dela po gor ke dzile le, sar kerdilia le Janneske ai le Jambreske.

¹⁰But thou didst follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience,

¹⁰Numa tu lian tu pala murho sicharimos, ai sar traiivas, ai so sas murhe ginduria, murho pachamos,ai murhi rhavda, murhi dragostia, ai sar inkeravas le Devlesa, ai zhanes murhe vutuimata, ai murhe chinuria.

¹¹persecutions, sufferings. What things befell me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me.

¹¹Tu zhanes so godi kerdilia pe mansa ando Antioch, ando Iconium, ai ando Listra; ai savendar vutuimata sas ma! Numa O Kristo skepisardia ma anda swako fielo.

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

¹²Ke kon godi mangel te traiil iek traio vorta le Devlesa ando Jesus Kristo avena chinuime.

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

¹³Numa le manush kai si nasul ai xoxamle zhana sagda mai dur ando nasulimos, ai rimona le kolavren, ai vi won rimonape.

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

¹⁴Numa tu inker so sichilian ai so sas tu dino sa che ilesa. Tu zhanes katar savo gazda sichilian.

¹⁵And that from a babe thou hast known the sacred writings which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

¹⁵Ke de sar sanas glata tu zhanes e Swunto Vorba le Devleski, kai sai del tu e goji kai ingerel ka skepimos katar o pachamos ando Jesus Kristo.

¹⁶Every scripture inspired of God [is] also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is in righteousness.

¹⁶Sa e Swunto Vorba le Devleski avel katar O Del ai traiil pala leste ai trobul te sicharel o chachimos, te sikavel so nai vorta, ai te lasharel le dosha, ai e Vorba sikavel leske sar te traiil vorta,

¹⁷That the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.

¹⁷saxke o manush le Devlesko te avel vorta gata, ai te avel les swako fielo te kerel so godi si mishtimos.
