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 strong in the grace which [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 thou hast heard of me in the presence of many witnesses, these entrust to faithful men, such as shall be competent to instruct others also.

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

³Take thy share in suffering as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

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 one going as a soldier entangles himself with the affairs of life, that he may please him who has enlisted 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 any one contend [in the games], he is not crowned unless he contend 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 husbandman must labour before partaking of the fruits.

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

⁷Think of what I say, for the Lord will 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 raised from among [the] dead, of [the] seed of David, according to my glad tidings,

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'.

⁹in which I suffer even unto bonds as an evil-doer: 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.

¹⁰For this cause I endure all things for the sake of the elect, 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.

¹¹The word [is] faithful; for if we have died together with [him], we shall also live together;

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 together; if we deny, *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 unfaithful, *he* abides 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 in remembrance, testifying earnestly before the Lord not to have disputes of words, profitable for nothing, to the subversion of the hearers.

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'!"

¹⁵Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God, a workman that has not to be ashamed, cutting in a straight line 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 profane, vain babblings shun, for they will advance to greater impiety,

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 spread as a gangrene; of whom is Hymenaeus and 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.

¹⁸[men] who as to the truth have gone astray, saying that the resurrection has taken place 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."

¹⁹Yet the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, [The] Lord knows those that are his; and, Let every one who names the name of [the] Lord withdraw from iniquity.

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.

²⁰But in a great house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also wooden and earthen; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

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 therefore one shall have purified himself from these, [in separating himself from them], he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, serviceable to the Master, prepared for 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.

²²But youthful lusts flee, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those that call upon 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 senseless questionings avoid, knowing that they beget contentions.

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 a bondman of [the] Lord ought not to contend, 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 setting right those who oppose, if God perhaps may sometime give them repentance to acknowledgment of [the] truth,

²⁶and that they may awake up out of the snare of the devil, [who are] taken by him, for *his* will.
