2 TIMOTHEO 3

Mehla e mebe ya bofelo. Go tiela thutong

1 Tseba gore mehleng ya bofelo go tlo tla mabaka a mathata. 2 Batho e tlo ba ba go ithata, ba megabaru, ba lenyatšo le baikgogomoši, le ba maroga, le ba go se kwe batswadi, ba go se leboge, ba go se ile selo. 3 E tlo ba bahlalalerato, babatasekgoro, e tlo ba dihwirihwiri, le ba ba sa tsebego go itshwara, manaba a tše bolo; 4 E tlo ba baeki, baipuši, baikgantšhi, ba go ipshina ba lahlile Modimo. 5 Ge o ba bona, o tlo re ba ne borapedi; anthe maatla a bjona ga ba a dumele. Ba ba bjalo o ba gerule. 6 Go bona bao go na le ba go tsenela ba bangwe dintlong, mme ba thopa basatšana ba ba imetšwego ke dibe, ba ba gogwago ke dikganyogo tša mehutahuta. 7 Ke ba kago rutwa ka mehla mme ba se kgone go fihlela tsebo ya therešo le ka mohla o mongwe. 8 Ke tšona tše Janne le Jambore ba bego ba na natšo ge ba ngangana le Moše, ya ba go ngangana le therešo. Ke batho ba ba senyegilego kgopolo, ba go se amane le tumelo.

9 Fela, ba ka se ke ba iša felo; bošilo bja bona bo tšwela pepeneneng, bjalo ka bja bona bala.
10 Ge e le wena o lotile thuto ya ka wa e latela, wa etša mokgwa wa ka le phegelelo ya ka, le tumelo ya ka, le go se fele pelo ga ka, le lerato, le kgotlelelo. 11 Wa etša nna ka go hlomarelwa le go tlaišwa ka tše di etšago tšela tša go ntiregela Antiokia, le Ikonio le Lisitara. Ke kgotleletše ditlhomarelo tše bjalo, mme Morena o nnamoletše gohle. 12 Ke tše di tlogo diregela bohle ba ba ratago go phela ka borapedi ka Kriste Jesu; le bona ba tlo hlomarelwa. 13 Batho ba babe le baaroši, bobe bja bona bo tlo fela bo gola bo eya, ba fora ba bangwe, le bona ba forwa. 14 Ge e le wena o tiele mo go tše o di rutilwego wa di dumela, o tseba ba o ithutilego go bona. 15 Gobane Mangwalo a Makgethwa o a tseba go tloga bjaneng. Ke ona a kgonago go go hlalefišetša phologo ka tumelo, o dumetše Jesu Kriste. 16 Gobane Mangwalo ka moka ke mahebetšwake Modimo, le gona a hola batho ka go ruta, le ka go kgodiša le go sokolla, le ka go iša tokong, 17 gore motho wa Modimo e be yo bolokatlalo, a kgonišwe go dira mediro e botse ka moka.

2 TIMOTHY 3

What People Will Be Like //in the Last Days

1 You can be certain that in the last days there will be some very hard times. 2 People will love only themselves and money. They will be proud, stuck-up, rude, and disobedient to their parents. They will also be ungrateful, godless, 3 heartless, and hateful. Their words will be cruel, and they will have no self-control or pity. These people will hate everything good. 4 They will be sneaky, reckless, and puffed up with pride. Instead of loving God, they will love pleasure.

5 Even though they will make a show of being religious, their religion won't be real. Don't have anything to do with such people.
6 Some men fool whole families, just to get power over those women who are slaves of sin and are controlled by all sorts of desires. 7 These women always want to learn something new, but they never can discover the truth. 8 t Just as Jannes and Jambrest opposed Moses, these people are enemies of the truth. Their minds are sick, and their faith isn't real.

9 But they won't get very far with their foolishness. Soon everyone will know the truth about them, just as Jannes and Jambres were found out.

Paul's Last Instructions //to Timothy

13 But evil people who pretend to be what they are not will become worse than ever, as they fool others and are fooled themselves.
14 Keep on being faithful to what you were taught and to what you believed. After all, you know who taught you these things. 15 Since childhood, you have known the Holy Scriptures that are able to make you wise enough to have faith in Christ Jesus and be saved. 16 Everything in the Scriptures is God's Word. All of it is useful for teaching and helping people and for correcting them and showing them how to live. 17 The Scriptures train God's servants to do all kinds of good deeds.
