¹Jadi', Timotius ana' -ku! Pakaroho mpu'u nono-nu hante karohoa to tarata ngkai Kristus Yesus ngkai kabula rala-na Alata'ala.

¹Thou therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

²Nu'epe moto wengi hawe'ea tudui' -ku, pai' wori' wo'o tauna to mposabii' pai' mpo'epe tudui' -ku toe. Jadi', tudui' toe kana nuparata wo'o-raka tauna to ma'ala rasarumaka pai' to nginca mpotudui' tau ntani' -na.

²And the things which thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

³Jadi', Timotius, kana sadia wo'o-ko-kowo mpokolo kaparia hangkaa-ngkania hante aku', hewa tantara Kristus Yesus to lompe'.

³Suffer hardship with [me], as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

⁴Apa' ane tantara to lompe' -hana, bate tari-i mpokolo kaparia, pai' uma-i sese' mpo'urusi urusia-na moto, apa' doko' -i mpakagoe' nono tadulako-na.

⁴No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of [this] life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.

⁵Wae wo'o, tauna to mpobago bago Pue' ma'ala rarapai' -ki tauna to motanta' mokeno. Kana natuku' atura-atura po'orea', apa' ane uma natuku', uma-i mpai' mporata parasee.

⁵And if also a man contend in the games, he is not crowded, except he have contended lawfully.

⁶Pai' tauna to mpobago bago Pue' ma'ala rarapai' -ki topolia'. Ane mobago ntomo-i, masipato' lia ane hi'a to lomo' -na mpokoni' wua' polia' -na.

⁶The husbandmen that laboreth must be the first to partake of the fruits.

⁷Poinono paresa' -ku toi, Pue' moto mponotohi nono-nu bona nupaha omea.

⁷Consider what I say; for the Lord shall give thee understanding in all things.

⁸Kolo-mi kaparia, pai' kiwoi Yesus Kristus, to tuwu' nculii' ngkai kamatea, Magau' Topetolo' muli Magau' Daud. Toe-mi ihi' -na Kareba Lompe' to kukeni-e.

⁸Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel:

⁹Ngkai kampokeni-ku Kareba Lompe' toe-mi, pai' alaa-ku ngkolo kaparia, duu' -na oi-ama rahilu' hi rala tarungku' hewa tauna to dada'a. Aga Lolita Alata'ala uma-hana tehilu'.

⁹wherein I suffer hardship unto bonds, as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound.

¹⁰Toe pai' ku'agi-mi mpengkatarii hawe'ea toi-e. Nau' -a rabalinai', kupalele oa' Lolita Alata'ala, bona tauna to napelihi-mi mpo'epe pai' mpopangala', duu' -na mporata-ra kalompea' pai' katuwua' to ncola duu' kahae-hae-na ngkai posidaia' -ra hante Kristus Yesus.

¹⁰Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

¹¹Kolo-mi kaparia, apa' makono mpu'u lolita to mpo'uli': Ane ntoa' mate-ta-damo dohe-na, bate tuwu' wo'o-ta mpai' dohe-na.

¹¹Faithful is the saying: For if we died with him, we shall also live with him:

¹²Ane mosabara-ta mpokolo kaparia, moparenta wo'o-ta-tawo mpai' dohe-na. Aga ane tasapu-di petuku' -ta hi Hi'a, nasapu wo'o-ta-tawo mpai' kakita' -na topetuku' -na.

¹²if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us:

¹³Nau' molaka' pepangala' -ta hi Hi'a, uma molaka' pepewili' -na hi kita'. Apa' uma-i bisa mo'ungkere' ngkai lolita-na.

¹³if we are faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny himself.

¹⁴Timotius! Popokiwoii-ra hawe'ea to ku'uli' tohe'i. Paresai' -ra hi rala hanga' Pue' Ala bona neo' -ra momehono' mpomehonoi' ada agama. Apa' pomehonoa' to hewa toe uma ria kalaua-na hi rala katuwu' -ta, mpokero lau-wadi pepangala' -ra to mpo'epe.

¹⁴Of these things put them in remembrance, charging [them] in the sight of the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of them that hear.

¹⁵Aga iko Timotius, parata tudui' to makono hante kanoa' -noa' -na. Huduwukui mpokamu bago-nu toe, bona ane rata-ko mpai' hi nyanyoa Alata'ala, uma-ko me'ea'. Na'uli' -koko mpai': "Iko-mi topobago-ku to lompe'!"

¹⁵Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth.

¹⁶Neo' nudohei-ra tauna to mpokeni lolita to uma mo'ihi. Apa' tudui' -ra toe uma mpokeni tauna mpakaroli' katuwu' -ra. Tudui' -ra toe mpokeni tauna kamolaa-laaa lau-di ngkai Alata'ala.

¹⁶But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness,

¹⁷Tudui' to hewa toe melelei hewa haki' pai' mpakada'a katuwu' wori' tauna. Himeneus pai' Filetus, hira' roduaa toe-mi to mpokeni tudui' to dada'a hewa toe.

¹⁷and their word will eat as doth a gangrene: or whom is Hymenaeus an Philetus;

¹⁸Meleli' -ra ngkai tudui' to makono, ra'uli' -rana timpaliu-mi pemataa hawe'ea tauna to mate. Tudui' -ra to uma makono toe mpaka'ingu' lau-mi ba hangkuja dua tauna, alaa-na mere' -mi pepangala' -ra.

¹⁸men who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already, and overthrow the faith of some.

¹⁹Aga nau' wae, Lolita Alata'ala bate makono pai' ma'ala raparasaya. Lolita Alata'ala hewa parawatu to uma molengo. Hi rala Lolita Alata'ala te'uki' hewa toi: Na'inca Pue' kahema-ra to napobagia," Hema-hema to mpo'uli' Kayesus-na Pue' -ra, kana mpobahakai gau' -ra to dada'a."

¹⁹Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.

²⁰Hi rala tomi to bohe, wori' nyala rewa hi poruhea. Ria rewa to lompe', hewa rapa' -na to rababehi ngkai bulawa pai' salaka'. Ria wo'o to rababehi ngkai kaju ba tana' pulu' -wadi. To lompe', rahenta ane ria torata to rabila'. To uma lompe' rahi, rahenta eo-eo-na.

²⁰Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.

²¹Jadi', ane tabahakai kehi-ta to dada'a, kita' jadi' hewa rewa to lompe', to rahenta mpobila' torata. Batua-na, kita' jadi' topobago to moroli' pai' to ria kalaua-na hi Pue' -ta, pai' sadia-ta mpobago butu nyala pobago to lompe'.

²¹If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work.

²²Toe pai' kuparesai' -ko Timotius, neo' nutuku' kahinaa nono to biasa hi tauna to mongura. Huduwukui mpotuku' gau' to napokono Pue', perohoi pepangala' -nu hi Pue' pai' ahi' -nu hi doo. Tuwu' hintuwu' hante hawe'ea tauna to mekakae hi Pue' ngkai karoli' nono-ra.

²²after righteousness, faith, love, pace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

²³Ria tauna to ntora mpomehonoi' tudui' to uma ria kalaua-na, tapi' ko'ia monoto nono-ra mpo'inca tudui' to makono. Neo' nudohei-ra hi rala pomehonoa' -ra toe, apa' nu'inca moto, lolita-ra toe mpobabehi posisalaa lau-wadi, alaa-na uma-pi hintuwu' tauna.

²³But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strifes.

²⁴Pai' uma-hawo natao ane kita' to jadi' batua-na Pue' uma hintuwu' hante doo-ta. Kana tapoka'olu po'ingku-ta hi hawe'ea tauna, pante metudui', pai' mosabara.

²⁴And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing,

²⁶Tauna to me'ewa kana tapaka'olu mpotanee' -ra, meka' ba lue' Pue' mpalogai-ra medea ngkai pe'ewa-ra duu' -na monoto-mi nono-ra pai' ra'inca tudui' to makono, alaa-na tebahaka-ra ngkai kuasa Magau' Anudaa' to mpewuku-ra mpotuku' konoa-na.

²⁵in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth,

²⁶and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will.
