¹Inoha' Tomoroli' mpo'uli' -taka hante kalonto' -lonto' -na napa mpai' to jadi' hi eo-eo to tumai. Nto'u toe mpai', hantongo' tauna mengkala'ura ngkai pepangala' -ra hi tudui' to makono. Mengkoru lau-ra hi noto to mepohala'tara, pai' -ra mpotuku' tudui' to ngkai seta.

¹But the Spirit speaks expressly, that in latter times some shall apostatise from the faith, giving their mind to deceiving spirits and teachings of demons

²Tudui' toe raparata tauna to boa', hanyala lolita-ra hanyala kehi-ra. Mobengi nono-ra, uma-pi ra'incai me'ea' ane rababehi gau' to dada'a.

²speaking lies in hypocrisy, cauterised as to their own conscience,

³Metudui' -ra bona tauna neo' ncamoko pai' neo' mpokoni' to rapalii'. Hiaa' hawe'ea konia' toe, napajadi' Alata'ala bona rakoni'. Kita' to mepangala' hi Kristus pai' to mpo'inca-mi tudui' to makono, ma'ala takoni' pongkoni' toe pai' -ta mpo'uli' tarima kasi hi Alata'ala.

³forbidding to marry, [bidding] to abstain from meats, which God has created for receiving with thanksgiving for them who are faithful and know the truth.

⁴Apa' hawe'ea to napajadi' Alata'ala, lompe' omea, uma ria to rapalii' ane tatarima hante pontarima kasi hi Alata'ala.

⁴For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing [is] to be rejected, being received with thanksgiving;

⁵Ntuku' Lolita Alata'ala, hawe'ea ma'ala takoni', pai' taposampayai wo'o bona nagane' -taka.

⁵for it is sanctified by God's word and freely addressing [him].

⁶Ane nutudui' -ra ompi' -ompi' hampepangalaa' -ta hawe'ea toe, iko jadi' topobago Kristus Yesus to lompe', pai' nuperohoi nono-nu moto hante Lolita Alata'ala to tapangala' pai' hante tudui' to lompe' to mahae-mi nutuku'.

⁶Laying these things before the brethren, thou wilt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which thou hast fully followed up.

⁷Neo' nutadi tempo-nu mpewulihi' jarita-jarita boa' pai' lolita to uma mpokeni-ta mengkoru hi Alata'ala. Huduwukui mporohoi nono-nu mengkoru hi Alata'ala.

⁷But profane and old wives' fables avoid, but exercise thyself unto piety;

⁸Apa' ane tarohoi wotoloka' -ta, hangkedi' -wadi kalaua-na. Tapi' ane tarohoi nono-ta mengkoru hi Alata'ala, wori' kalaua-na, apa' pengkoru-ta hi Alata'ala toe mpokeni rasi' hi katuwu' -ta tempo toi, pai' hi katuwu' -ta hi eo mpeno-na wo'o.

⁸for bodily exercise is profitable for a little, but piety is profitable for everything, having promise of life, of the present one, and of that to come.

⁹Makono mpu'u lolita toe we'i pai' masipato' taparasaya omea.

⁹The word [is] faithful and worthy of all acceptation;

¹⁰Toe-mi pai' mobago ngkoro-ta, apa' ncarumaka-ta hi Alata'ala to tuwu' duu' kahae-hae-na, Magau' Tompohore hawe'ea tauna, peliu-liu-nami tauna to mepangala'.

¹⁰for, for this we labour and suffer reproach, because we hope in a living God, who is preserver of all men, specially of those that believe.

¹¹Hawe'ea to ku'uli' -koko toi, tudui' -raka pai' hawai' -ra bona ratuku'.

¹¹Enjoin and teach these things.

¹²Nau' mongura-pidi-ko, aga neo' -ko ma'ala rapemarua'. Kana jadi' tonco-ko hi ompi' -ompi' hampepangalaa' hi rala pololita-nu, pogau' -nu, ahi' -nu hi doo-doo, pepangala' -nu hi Pue', pai' po'ingku-nu to moroli'.

¹²Let no one despise thy youth, but be a model of the believers, in word, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

¹³Kako'ia-ku rata, neo' nu'oloi' mpobasa Buku Tomoroli' hi ompi' -ompi' hampepangalaa', nu'apui nono-ra pai' nutudui' -ra.

¹³Till I come, give thyself to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.

¹⁴Neo' -ko lempe' mpobago bago-nu tetu, ntuku' pakulea' to nawai' -koko Inoha' Tomoroli'. Nawai' -ko pakulea' tetu nto'u tauna mpoparata Lolita Alata'ala mpoparesai' -ko, pai' pangkeni agama mpodampa pale-ra hi tanuana' -nu mpo'ongko' -ko jadi' pangkeni agama.

¹⁴Be not negligent of the gift [that is] in thee, which has been given to thee through prophecy, with imposition of the hands of the elderhood.

¹⁵Neo' nubahakai mpobago hawe'ea toe, nuparipoko mpu'u, bona monoto hi hawe'ea tauna kabaka' -nu mpokamu pobago Pue'.

¹⁵Occupy thyself with these things; be wholly in them, that thy progress may be manifest to all.

¹⁶Jagai po'ingku-nu, pai' jagai wo'o tudui' -nu. Tida-ko mpobago hawe'ea toe, apa' ngkai toe mpai' mporata-ko kalompea', wae wo'o tauna to mpo'epe tudui' -nu.

¹⁶Give heed to thyself and to the teaching; continue in them; for, doing this, thou shalt save both thyself and those that hear thee.
