1As for you, my child, be strong by the grace that is in the Messiah Jesus. 1Σὺ οὖν τέκνον μου ἐνδυναμοῦ ἐν τῇ χάριτι τῇ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ
2What you have heard from me through many witnesses entrust to faithful people who will be able to teach others as well. 2καὶ ἤκουσας παρ’ ἐμοῦ διὰ πολλῶν μαρτύρων ταῦτα παράθου πιστοῖς ἀνθρώποις οἵτινες ἱκανοὶ ἔσονται καὶ ἑτέρους διδάξαι
3Join me in suffering like a good soldier of the Messiah Jesus. 3Συνκακοπάθησον ὡς καλὸς στρατιώτης Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ
4No one serving in the military gets mixed up in civilian matters, for his aim is to please his commanding officer. 4οὐδεὶς στρατευόμενος ἐμπλέκεται ταῖς τοῦ βίου πραγματείαις ἵνα τῷ στρατολογήσαντι ἀρέσῃ
5Moreover, no one who is an athlete wins a prize unless he competes according to the rules. 5ἐὰν δὲ καὶ ἀθλῇ τις οὐ στεφανοῦται ἐὰν μὴ νομίμως ἀθλήσῃ
6Furthermore, it is the hard working farmer who should have the first share of the crops. 6τὸν κοπιῶντα γεωργὸν δεῖ πρῶτον τῶν καρπῶν μεταλαμβάνειν
7Think about what I am saying. The Lord will help you to understand all these things.7νόει λέγω δώσει γάρ σοι Κύριος σύνεσιν ἐν πᾶσιν
8Meditate on Jesus, the Messiah, who was raised from the dead and is a descendant of David. This is the gospel I tell others.8Μνημόνευε Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν ἐγηγερμένον ἐκ νεκρῶν ἐκ σπέρματος Δαυίδ κατὰ τὸ εὐαγγέλιόν μου
9Because of it I am experiencing trouble, even to the point of being chained like a criminal. However, God's word is not chained. 9ἐν κακοπαθῶ μέχρι δεσμῶν ὡς κακοῦργος ἀλλὰ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐ δέδεται
10For that reason, I endure everything for the sake of those who have been chosen so that they, too, may receive the salvation that is in the Messiah Jesus, along with eternal glory. 10διὰ τοῦτο πάντα ὑπομένω διὰ τοὺς ἐκλεκτούς ἵνα καὶ αὐτοὶ σωτηρίας τύχωσιν τῆς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ μετὰ δόξης αἰωνίου
11This saying is trustworthy: In dying with the Messiah, true life we gain. 11Πιστὸς λόγος Εἰ γὰρ συναπεθάνομεν καὶ συζήσομεν
12Enduring, we with him will reign. Who him denies, he will disclaim.12εἰ ὑπομένομεν καὶ συμβασιλεύσομεν* εἰ ἀρνησόμεθα κἀκεῖνος ἀρνήσεται ἡμᾶς
13Our faith may fail, his never wanes— That's who he is, he cannot change! 13εἰ ἀπιστοῦμεν ἐκεῖνος πιστὸς μένει ἀρνήσασθαι γὰρ ἑαυτὸν οὐ δύναται
14Remind others about these things, and warn them before God not to argue over words. Arguing does not do any good but only destroys those who are listening. 14Ταῦτα ὑπομίμνῃσκε διαμαρτυρόμενος ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ μὴ λογομαχεῖν ἐπ’ οὐδὲν χρήσιμον ἐπὶ καταστροφῇ τῶν ἀκουόντων
15Do your best to present yourself to God as an approved worker who has nothing to be ashamed of, handling the word of truth with precision. 15Σπούδασον σεαυτὸν δόκιμον παραστῆσαι τῷ Θεῷ ἐργάτην ἀνεπαίσχυντον ὀρθοτομοῦντα τὸν λόγον τῆς ἀληθείας
16However, avoid pointless discussions. For people will become more and more ungodly, 16Τὰς δὲ βεβήλους κενοφωνίας περιΐστασο ἐπὶ πλεῖον γὰρ προκόψουσιν ἀσεβείας
17and what they say will spread everywhere like gangrene. Hymenaeus and Philetus are like that. 17καὶ λόγος αὐτῶν ὡς γάγγραινα νομὴν ἕξει ὧν ἐστιν Ὑμέναιος καὶ Φιλητός
18They have abandoned the truth by claiming that the resurrection has already taken place, and so they destroy the faith of others.18οἵτινες περὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν ἠστόχησαν λέγοντες [τὴν] ἀνάστασιν ἤδη γεγονέναι καὶ ἀνατρέπουσιν τήν τινων πίστιν
19However, God's solid foundation still stands. It has this inscription on it: "The Lord knows those who belong to him," and "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord must turn away from evil."19 μέντοι στερεὸς θεμέλιος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἕστηκεν ἔχων τὴν σφραγῖδα ταύτην Ἔγνω Κύριος τοὺς ὄντας αὐτοῦ καί Ἀποστήτω ἀπὸ ἀδικίας πᾶς ὀνομάζων τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου
20In a large house there are not only utensils made of gold and silver, but also those made of wood and clay. Some are for special use, while others are for ordinary use. 20Ἐν μεγάλῃ δὲ οἰκίᾳ οὐκ ἔστιν μόνον σκεύη χρυσᾶ καὶ ἀργυρᾶ ἀλλὰ καὶ ξύλινα καὶ ὀστράκινα καὶ μὲν εἰς τιμὴν δὲ εἰς ἀτιμίαν
21Therefore, if anyone stops associating with these people, he will become a special utensil, set apart for the owner's use, prepared for every good action.21ἐὰν οὖν τις ἐκκαθάρῃ ἑαυτὸν ἀπὸ τούτων ἔσται σκεῦος εἰς τιμήν ἡγιασμένον εὔχρηστον τῷ δεσπότῃ εἰς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἡτοιμασμένον
22Flee from youthful passions. Instead, pursue righteousness, faithfulness, love, and peace together with those who call on the Lord with a pure heart. 22Τὰς δὲ νεωτερικὰς ἐπιθυμίας φεῦγε δίωκε δὲ δικαιοσύνην πίστιν ἀγάπην εἰρήνην μετὰ τῶν ἐπικαλουμένων τὸν Κύριον ἐκ καθαρᾶς καρδίας
23Do not have anything to do with foolish and stupid discussions, because you know they breed arguments. 23Τὰς δὲ μωρὰς καὶ ἀπαιδεύτους ζητήσεις παραιτοῦ εἰδὼς ὅτι γεννῶσιν μάχας
24A servant of the Lord must not argue. Instead, he must be kind to everyone, teachable, willing to suffer wrong, 24δοῦλον δὲ Κυρίου οὐ δεῖ μάχεσθαι ἀλλὰ ἤπιον εἶναι πρὸς πάντας διδακτικόν ἀνεξίκακον
25and gentle when refuting opponents. After all, maybe God will allow them to repent and to come to a full knowledge of the truth, 25ἐν πραΰτητι παιδεύοντα τοὺς ἀντιδιατιθεμένους μή‿ ποτε δώῃ αὐτοῖς Θεὸς μετάνοιαν εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας
26so that they might escape from the devil's snare, even though they've been held captive by him to do his will.26καὶ ἀνανήψωσιν ἐκ τῆς τοῦ διαβόλου παγίδος ἐζωγρημένοι ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ ἐκείνου θέλημα
