2 TIMOTEORI 3

Azken egunetako jendea nolakoa

1 Jakin behar duzu azken egunetan une latzak izango direla.t 2 Izan ere, gizakiak berekoi, diruzale, harro eta handiputz izango dira; biraolari, gurasoentzat errebelde, esker txarreko eta erlijioaren aurkako;t 3 bihotz-gogor, anker, gaizki-esale, lizun, basati eta onaren etsai; 4 traidore, ausartegi eta itsu, Jainkoaren baino atseginen maitaleago.

5 Itxuraz erlijiozale agertuko dira, baina ukatu egingo dute erlijioaren benetako indarra. Alde egizu horrelakoengandik!t
6-7 Horien artean badira batzuk, etxeetan sarturik, bekatuz beteak eta era askotako grina txarren menpe dauden emakume kaskarinak liluratzen dituztenak; emakume horiek jakin-minez daude beti, baina ez dira inoiz egiaren ezagutzara iristeko gauza.t 8 Janes eta Jambrest aztiak Moisesen aurka jarri ziren bezalaxe, liluratzaile hauek ere, buru usteleko jendea eta sinesmenean porrot egina baita, egiaren aurka jartzen dira.t

9 Baina ez dira urrutira helduko, argi ikusiko baitute denek horien zentzugabekeria, antzinako aztiekin gertatu zen bezala.

Tinko iraun

13 Gizaki gaizto eta gezurtiak, berriz, gero eta okerrago ibiliko dira, besteak eta beren buruak engainatuz.
14 Zuk, ordea, iraun ezazu tinko ikasi eta egiatzat onartu duzun guztian; hartu gogoan norengandik ikasia duzunt 15 eta Liburu Santuak umetandik ezagunak dituzula. Liburu Santuek emango dizute Kristo Jesusenganako sinesmenaren bidez salbamenera daraman jakinduria.t 16 Liburu Santuetan idatzirik dagoen guztia Jainkoak inspiratua da eta irakasteko, arrazoiak emateko, okerrak zuzentzeko eta biziera zuzenean hezteko baliagarriat;t 17 horrela, Jainkoaren gizona guztiz hornitua gertatzen da, edozein eginbehar onetarako prest.t

Ministry in the Last Days

1 But understand this, that in the last days difficultt times will come.2 For peoplet will be lovers of themselves,t lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,3 unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, savage, opposed to what is good,4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God.5 They will maintain the outward appearancets of religion but will have repudiated its power. So avoid people like these.t6 For some of these insinuate themselvest into households and captivate weak woment who are overwhelmed with sins and led along by various passions.7 Such women are always seeking instruction,t yet never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.8 And just as Jannes and Jambress opposed Moses, so these people – who have warped minds and are disqualified in the faitht – also oppose the truth.

9 But they will not go much further,t for their foolishness will be obvious to everyone, just like it was with Jannes and Jambres.t

Continue in What You Have Learned

10 You, however,s have followed my teaching, myt way of life, my purpose, my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,11 as well as the persecutions and sufferingst that happened to me in Antioch,s in Iconium, and in Lystra.ss I endured these persecutions and the Lord delivered me from them all.12 Now in fact all who want to live godly lives in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.13 But evil people and charlatans will go from bad to worse,t deceiving others and being deceived themselves.t14 You, however, must continuet in the things you have learned and are confident about. You knowt who taught yout15 and how from infancy you have known the holy writings, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.16 Every scripturets is inspired by Gods and useful for teaching, for reproof,t for correction, and for training in righteousness,

17 that the person dedicated to Godt may be capablet and equipped for every good work.
