1You therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that [is] in Christ Jesus. 1Σὺ οὖν τέκνον μου ἐνδυναμοῦ ἐν τῇ χάριτι τῇ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ
2And the things that you have heard me [say] among many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be qualified to teach others as well. 2καὶ ἃ 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 Christ Jesus. 3Συνκακοπάθησον ὡς καλὸς στρατιώτης Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ
4A soldier refrains from entangling himself in [civilian] affairs, in order to please the [one who] enlisted him. 4οὐδεὶς στρατευόμενος ἐμπλέκεται ταῖς τοῦ βίου πραγματείαις ἵνα τῷ στρατολογήσαντι ἀρέσῃ
5Likewise, a contender does not receive the crown unless he competes according to the rules. 5ἐὰν δὲ καὶ ἀθλῇ τις οὐ στεφανοῦται ἐὰν μὴ νομίμως ἀθλήσῃ
6The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive his share of the crops. 6τὸν κοπιῶντα γεωργὸν δεῖ πρῶτον τῶν καρπῶν μεταλαμβάνειν
7Consider what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all things. 7νόει ὃ λέγω δώσει γάρ σοι ὁ Κύριος σύνεσιν ἐν πᾶσιν
8Remember Jesus Christ, raised from [the] dead, descended from David, as proclaimed by my gospel, 8Μνημόνευε Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν ἐγηγερμένον ἐκ νεκρῶν ἐκ σπέρματος Δαυίδ κατὰ τὸ εὐαγγέλιόν μου
9for which I suffer to the extent of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God cannot be chained! 9ἐν ᾧ κακοπαθῶ μέχρι δεσμῶν ὡς κακοῦργος ἀλλὰ ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐ δέδεται
10For this reason I endure all things for the sake of the elect, so that they too may obtain [the] salvation that [is] in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. 10διὰ τοῦτο πάντα ὑπομένω διὰ τοὺς ἐκλεκτούς ἵνα καὶ αὐτοὶ σωτηρίας τύχωσιν τῆς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ μετὰ δόξης αἰωνίου
11[This is a] trustworthy saying: If we died [with Him], we will also live [with Him]; 11Πιστὸς ὁ λόγος Εἰ γὰρ συναπεθάνομεν καὶ συζήσομεν
12if we endure, we will also reign [with Him]; if we deny [Him], He will also deny us; 12εἰ ὑπομένομεν καὶ συμβασιλεύσομεν* εἰ ἀρνησόμεθα κἀκεῖνος ἀρνήσεται ἡμᾶς
13if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself. 13εἰ ἀπιστοῦμεν ἐκεῖνος πιστὸς μένει ἀρνήσασθαι γὰρ ἑαυτὸν οὐ δύναται
14Remind [ the believers ] of these things, charging [them] before God to avoid quarreling over words; [this is] in no way profitable, [and leads] [its] listeners to ruin. 14Ταῦτα ὑπομίμνῃσκε διαμαρτυρόμενος ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ μὴ λογομαχεῖν ἐπ’ οὐδὲν χρήσιμον ἐπὶ καταστροφῇ τῶν ἀκουόντων
15Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, [an] unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth. 15Σπούδασον σεαυτὸν δόκιμον παραστῆσαι τῷ Θεῷ ἐργάτην ἀνεπαίσχυντον ὀρθοτομοῦντα τὸν λόγον τῆς ἀληθείας
16But avoid irreverent [and] empty chatter, [which] will [only] lead to more ungodliness, 16Τὰς δὲ βεβήλους κενοφωνίας περιΐστασο ἐπὶ πλεῖον γὰρ προκόψουσιν ἀσεβείας
17and the talk of [such men] will spread like gangrene. Among [them] are Hymenaeus and Philetus, 17καὶ ὁ λόγος αὐτῶν ὡς γάγγραινα νομὴν ἕξει ὧν ἐστιν Ὑμέναιος καὶ Φιλητός
18who have deviated from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already occurred, and they undermine the faith of some. 18οἵτινες περὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν ἠστόχησαν λέγοντες [τὴν] ἀνάστασιν ἤδη γεγονέναι καὶ ἀνατρέπουσιν τήν τινων πίστιν
19Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “[The] Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord must turn away from iniquity.” 19Ὁ μέντοι στερεὸς θεμέλιος τοῦ Θεοῦ ἕστηκεν ἔχων τὴν σφραγῖδα ταύτην Ἔγνω Κύριος τοὺς ὄντας αὐτοῦ καί Ἀποστήτω ἀπὸ ἀδικίας πᾶς ὁ ὀνομάζων τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου
20A large house contains not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. Some indeed [are] for honorable [use], but others [are] for common [use]. 20Ἐν μεγάλῃ δὲ οἰκίᾳ οὐκ ἔστιν μόνον σκεύη χρυσᾶ καὶ ἀργυρᾶ ἀλλὰ καὶ ξύλινα καὶ ὀστράκινα καὶ ἃ μὲν εἰς τιμὴν ἃ δὲ εἰς ἀτιμίαν
21So if anyone cleanses himself of what is unfit, he will be a vessel for honor: sanctified, useful to the Master, [and] prepared for every good work. 21ἐὰν οὖν τις ἐκκαθάρῃ ἑαυτὸν ἀπὸ τούτων ἔσται σκεῦος εἰς τιμήν ἡγιασμένον εὔχρηστον τῷ δεσπότῃ εἰς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἡτοιμασμένον
22Flee from youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, [and] peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 22Τὰς δὲ νεωτερικὰς ἐπιθυμίας φεῦγε δίωκε δὲ δικαιοσύνην πίστιν ἀγάπην εἰρήνην μετὰ τῶν ἐπικαλουμένων τὸν Κύριον ἐκ καθαρᾶς καρδίας
23But reject foolish and ignorant speculation, for you know that it breeds quarreling. 23Τὰς δὲ μωρὰς καὶ ἀπαιδεύτους ζητήσεις παραιτοῦ εἰδὼς ὅτι γεννῶσιν μάχας
24And a servant of [the] Lord must not be quarrelsome, but he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, [and] forbearing. 24δοῦλον δὲ Κυρίου οὐ δεῖ μάχεσθαι ἀλλὰ ἤπιον εἶναι πρὸς πάντας διδακτικόν ἀνεξίκακον
25[He must] gently reprove those who oppose [him], in the hope that God may grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of [the] truth. 25ἐν πραΰτητι παιδεύοντα τοὺς ἀντιδιατιθεμένους μή‿ ποτε δώῃ αὐτοῖς ὁ Θεὸς μετάνοιαν εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας
26Then they will come to their senses [and escape] the snare of the devil, [who] has taken them captive to his will. 26καὶ ἀνανήψωσιν ἐκ τῆς τοῦ διαβόλου παγίδος ἐζωγρημένοι ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ ἐκείνου θέλημα
