1But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.
6They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. 8Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.
A Final Charge to Timothy
10You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, 11persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. 12In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the servant of God3:17 Or that you, a man of God, may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Ennaku ez’Oluvannyuma
13:1 1Ti 4:1Naye tegeera kino nga mu nnaku ez’oluvannyuma walibaawo ebiseera ebizibu. 23:2 a 1Ti 3:3 b Bar 1:30 c Bar 1:30Kubanga abantu baliba nga beefaako bokka, nga balulunkanira ensimbi, nga beepanka, nga beekuluntaza, nga boogera ebibi, era nga tebawulira bazadde baabwe, nga tebeebaza, nga tebatya Katonda, 3nga tebaagalana era nga tebatabagana, nga bawaayiriza, nga tebeegendereza, nga bakambwe, nga tebaagala birungi, 43:4 1Ti 3:6nga ba nkwe, nga baagala eby’amasanyu okusinga bwe baagala Katonda; 5nga balina ekifaananyi eky’okutya Katonda so nga tebakkiriza maanyi gaakyo. Abantu ab’engeri eyo obeewalanga.
63:6 Yud 4Mu abo mulimu abasensera mu mayumba ne bawamba abakazi abanafu mu mwoyo abazitoowereddwa ebibi, era abawalulwa okwegomba okubi okwa buli ngeri, 7abayiga bulijjo, kyokka ne batatuuka ku kutegeerera ddala amazima, 83:8 a Kuv 7:11 b Bik 13:8 c 1Ti 6:5nga Yane ne Yambere abaawakanya Musa, ne bano bwe batyo bawakanya amazima. Be bantu abaayonooneka ebirowoozo, abatakyalina kukkiriza kutuufu. 93:9 Kuv 7:12Kyokka tebaliiko gye balaga, kubanga obusirusiru bwabwe bujja kumanyibwa abantu bonna, ng’obwa abasajja abo bwe bwamanyibwa.
103:10 1Ti 4:6Naye ggwe wagoberera nnyo okuyigiriza kwange, n’empisa zange, ne kye nduubirira, n’okukkiriza kwange n’okubonaabona kwange n’okwagala kwange, n’okugumiikiriza kwange, 113:11 a Bik 13:14, 50 b 2Ko 11:23-27 c Zab 34:19n’okuyigganyizibwa n’okubonyaabonyezebwa ebyantukako mu Antiyokiya, ne mu Ikoniya ne mu Lisitula, okuyigganyizibwa kwe nayigganyizibwa, kyokka Mukama n’amponya mu byonna. 123:12 Bik 14:22Era bonna abaagala okuba mu bulamu obutya Katonda mu Kristo Yesu, banaayigganyizibwanga. 133:13 2Ti 2:16Naye abakozi b’ebibi n’abalimba abeefuula okuba ekyo kye batali balyeyongera okuba ababi, ne babuzaabuza abalala, era nabo ne babula. 143:14 2Ti 1:13Kyokka ggwe nywereranga mu ebyo bye wayiga era n’obikkiririza ddala, ng’omanyi abaabikuyigiriza bwe bali. 153:15 2Ti 1:5Kubanga okuva mu buto bwo wamanya Ebyawandiikibwa Ebitukuvu ebiyinza okukufuula ow’amagezi, n’olokolebwa olw’okukkiriza Kristo Yesu. 163:16 2Pe 1:20, 21Ebyawandiikibwa Ebitukuvu byonna, Katonda ye yabiruŋŋamya nga biwandiikibwa, era bigasa mu kuyigiriza, mu kunenya, mu kuluŋŋamya ne mu kubuuliranga omuntu abe omutuukirivu, 173:17 1Ti 6:11omuntu wa Katonda alyoke abe ng’atuukiridde, ng’alina byonna ebyetaagibwa okukola buli mulimu omulungi.
