II Timothy 2

Koa ianao, anaka, dia aoka hihahery amin'ny fahasoavana izay ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy.

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

Ary izay zavatra efa renao tamiko teo anatrehan'ny vavolombelona maro dia atolory ny olona mahatoky, izay hahay mampianatra ny sasany kosa.

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

Miaraha miaritra ny mafy amiko ianao tahaka ny miaramila tsaran'i Kristy Jesosy.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

Ny miaramila manafika dia tsy mba misy maningo-tena amin'ny raharahan'izao fiainana izao. mba hahafaly izay efa nifidy azy ho miaramila.

No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

Ary raha misy manezaka amin'ny filalaovana, dia tsy satrohana satro-boninahitra izy, raha tsy manezaka araka ny lalàna.

And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

Ny mpiasa tany izay misasatra no tokony ho voalohany handray ny vokatra.

The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

Diniho izay lazaiko, fa homen'ny Tompo fahazavan-tsaina ny amin'ny zavatra rehetra ianao.

Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

Tsarovy Jesosy Kristy Izay natsangana tamin'ny maty, dia Ilay avy tamin'ny taranak'i Davida, araka ny filazantsarako,

Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

izay iaretako fahoriana hatramin'ny fatorana aza, hoatra ny mpanao ratsy; nefa ny tenin'Andriamanitra dia tsy mba voafatotra.

Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

Izany no iaretako ny zavatra rehetra noho ny amin'ny olom-boafidy, mba hahazoan'ireny koa famonjena. dia izay ao amin'i Kristy Jesosy. mbamin'ny voninahitra mandrakizay.

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

Mahatoky izao teny izao: Fa raha miara-maty aminy isika, dia hiara-belona aminy koa;

It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

raha miaritra isika, dia hiara-manjaka aminy; raha mandà Azy isika, Izy kosa handà antsika;

If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

fa na dia tsy matoky Azy aza isika, dia mbola mahatoky ihany Izy, fa tsy mahazo mandà ny tenany.

If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

Izany zavatra izany no ampahatsiarovy ny olona, ka anaro mafy eo anatrehan'ny Tompo izy mba tsy hiady teny, satria tsy mahasoa akory izany, fa mamadika ny mpihaino,

Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

Mazotoa manolotra ny tenanao amin'Andriamanitra ho olona voazaha toetra, dia mpiasa tsy mahazo henatra, mizara tsara ny teny fahamarinana.

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Fa halaviro ny fibedibedena foana; fa mbola handroso amin'ny haratsiam-panahy ihany izy ireny,

But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

ary ny teniny dia handany tahaka ny aretina mihady; isan ireny Hymeneo sy Fileto,

And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

izay nania tamin'ny marina ka milaza fa efa lasa sahady ny fitsanganan'ny maty, dia mamadika ny finoan'ny sasany.

Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

Kanefa ny fanorenana mafy nataon'Andriamanitra dia miorina tsara sady manana izao tombo-kase izao: "Ny Tompo mahalala ny azy", ary koa: "Aoka ny olona rehetra izay manonona ny anaran'ny Tompo hiala amin'ny ratsy."

Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

Fa ao an-trano lehibe, tsy dia fanaka volamena sy volafotsy ihany no ao, fa fanaka hazo sy tany koa, ny sasany homem-boninahitra, ary ny sasany halam-baraka.

But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

Koa raha misy olona manadio ny tenany ho afaka amin'ireny, dia ho fanaka homem-boninahitra izy, efa nohamasinina ka mahasoa ho an'ny Tompo, voavoatra ho amin'ny asa tsara rehetra.

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

Fa mandosira ny filan'ny tanora fanahy; ary miezaha mitady fahamarinana, finoana, fitiavana, fihavanana amin'izay miantso ny Tompo amin'ny fo madio.

Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Fa mandava ny fanontaniana adaladala tsy misy antony, satria fantatrao fa mahatonga ady izany.

But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

Ary tsy mety raha miady ny mpanompon'ny Tompo, fa ho malemy fanahy amin'ny olona rehetra, mahay mampianatra, mahalefitra,

And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

mananatra ny mpanohitra amin'ny fahamoram-panahy; fa angamba Andriamanitra hanome azy fibebahana hahalalany tsara ny marina,

In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

ka hody ny sainy ho afaka amin'ny fandriky ny devoly, izay nanao azy sambo-belona hanao ny sitrapony.

And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
