¹I command you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his Kingdom:

¹Requeritzen aut bada nic Iaincoaren eta Iesus Christ Iaunaren aitzinean, ceinec bere aduenimenduan eta resumán viciac eta hilac iugeaturen baititu:

²preach the word; be urgent in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all patience and teaching.

²Predica eçac hitza, perseuera eçac orduz eta orduz lekora: ari adi redarguitzen, mehatchatzen, exhortatzen, emetassun eta doctrina gucirequin:

³For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts;

³Ecen içanen duc demborabat ezpaitute doctrina sanoa suffrituren: baina beharri quillicorrac dituztelaric, beréc bere desirén arauezco iracastunac bilduren baitituzté:

⁴and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn aside to fables.

⁴Eta eguiatic beharriac itzuliren baitituzté, eta fabletara emanac içanen baitirade.

⁵But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry.

⁵Baina hic veilla eçac gauça gucietan, suffritzac afflictioneac, eguin eçac euangelistaren obra, eguic hire administrationea approbatua den.

⁶For I am already being offered, and the time of my departure has come.

⁶Ecen ni ia sacrificatu içatera nihoac, eta ene partitzeco demborá hulbil duc.

⁷I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. I have kept the faith.

⁷Combat ona combatitu diát, neure cursua acabatu diát, fedea beguiratu diát.

⁸From now on, there is stored up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

⁸Gaineracoaz, beguiratua diagotac iustitiazco coroá, cein rendaturen baitraut Iaunac egun hartan, iuge iusto harc: eta ez niri solament, baina haren aduenimendua desiratu vkan duqueiten guciey-ere bay.

⁹Be diligent to come to me soon,

⁹Diligentadi enegana ethortera sarri.

¹⁰for Demas left me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.

¹⁰Ecen Demasec abandonnatu niauc, presenteco secula haur onhetsiric, eta Thessalonicerat ioan içan duc: Crescens Galatiarát, Tite Dalmatiarát.

¹¹Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service.

¹¹Luc bera duc enequin. Marc harturic erekarrac eurequin: ecen probetchable diat cerbitzucotz.

¹²But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.

¹²Tychique-ere igorri diat Ephesera.

¹³Bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus when you come, and the books, especially the parchments.

¹³Troasen Carpo baithan vtzi vkan dudan manteliná, ethor adinean ekarrac eurequin, eta liburuäc, baina principalqui pergamioac.

¹⁴Alexander, the coppersmith, did much evil to me. The Lord will repay him according to his works,

¹⁴Alexandre cobre-arotzac anhitz gaitz eguin dirautac: Iaunac bere eguinén arauez renda dieçola.

¹⁵of whom you also must beware; for he greatly opposed our words.

¹⁵Harenganic hi-ere beguiradi: ecen haguitz gure hitzey resistitu vkan dirauec.

¹⁶At my first defense, no one came to help me, but all left me. May it not be held against them.

¹⁶Nehor etziaitadac assistitu, neure lehen defensán, aitzitic guciéc abandonnatu vkan niaué: imputa eztaquiela.

¹⁷But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear; and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

¹⁷Baina Iauna assistitu içan ciaitadac, eta fortificatu vkan niauc, niçaz predicationea compli dadinçát, eta hura ençun deçatençát Gentil guciéc: eta deliuratu içan nauc lehoinaren ahotic.

¹⁸And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom; to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

¹⁸Eta deliuraturen niauc Iaunac obra gaichto gucitaric eta emparaturen bere resuma celestialeco: hari dela gloria secula seculacotz. Amen.

¹⁹Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus.

¹⁹Salutaitzac Prisca eta Aquila, eta Onesiphororen familiá.

²⁰Erastus remained at Corinth, but I left Trophimus at Miletus sick.

²⁰Erasto guelditu içan duc Corinthen: eta Trophimo Mileten vtzi diat eria.

²¹Be diligent to come before winter. Eubulus salutes you, as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers.

²¹Diligentadi negu aitzinean ethortera. Salutatzen auté Eubuloc eta Pudensec eta Linoc eta Claudiac eta anaye guciéc.

²²The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

²²Iesus Christ Iauna dela hire spirituarequin. Haren gratia dela çuequin. Amen.
