1For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of God may run, and may be glorified, even as among you;
1ʻE Kāinga, ko hono fakaʻosi, mou hūfia ʻakimautolu, koeʻuhi ke lele atu ʻae folofola ʻae ʻEiki, pea ongoongolelei ia, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu:
2And that we may be delivered from importunate and evil men; for all men have not faith.
2Pea koeʻuhi ke fakahaofi ʻakimautolu mei he kakai taʻeʻatamai mo angakovi: ke ʻoku ʻikai maʻu kotoa pē ʻae tui.
3But God is faithful, who will strengthen and keep you from evil.
3Ka ʻoku moʻoni ʻae ʻEiki, ʻaia te ne fakatuʻumaʻu pea fakamoʻui ʻakimoutolu mei he kovi.
4And we have confidence concerning you in the Lord, that the things which we command, you both do, and will do.
4Pea ʻoku mau falala ki he ʻEiki koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻoku mou fai, pea te mou fai pe, ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku mau fekau kiate kimoutolu.
5And the Lord direct your hearts, in the charity of God, and the patience of Christ.
5Pea ke fakahinohino homou loto ʻe he ʻEiki ki he ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua, pea mo e faʻa kātaki ʻa Kalaisi.
6And we charge you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother walking disorderly, and not according to the tradition which they have received of us.
6Pea ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku mau fekau kiate kimoutolu, ʻi he huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ke mou mavahe ʻakimoutolu mei he kāinga kotoa pē ʻoku ʻeveʻeva taʻetotonu, pea ʻikai tatau mo e fekau naʻa ne maʻu meiate kimoutolu.
7For yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we were not disorderly among you;
7He ʻoku mou ʻilo, ʻoku totonu ke mou faʻifaʻitaki kiate kimautolu: he naʻe ʻikai te mau fai taʻetotonu ʻiate kimoutolu;
8Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nothing, but in labour and in toil we worked night and day, lest we should be chargeable to any of you.
8Pe temau kai taʻetotongi ʻae mā ʻa ha tokotaha; ka naʻa mau fai ʻae ngaue mo feinga ʻi he pō mo e ʻaho, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa mau fakamasivaʻi ha taha ʻokimoutolu:
9Not as if we had not power: but that we might give ourselves a pattern unto you, to imitate us.
9Ka naʻe ʻikai koeʻuhi ʻoku taʻetotonu kiate kimautolu, ka ke mau hoko ko e fakaʻilonga ke mou faʻifaʻitaki kiate kimautolu.
10For also when we were with you, this we declared to you: that, if any man will not work, neither let him eat.
10Ka ʻi he ʻemau ʻiate kimoutolu, naʻa mau fekau eni kiate kimoutolu, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai fie ngaue ha taha, pea ʻoua naʻa ne kai.”
11For we have heard there are some among you who walk disorderly, working not at all, but curiously meddling.
11He ʻoku mau fanongo ki ha niʻihi ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku ʻeveʻeva taʻetotonu, ʻo ʻikai siʻi ngaue, ka ko e kau kaunoa.
12Now we charge them that are such, and beseech them by the Lord Jesus Christ, that, working with silence, they would eat their own bread.
12Pea ko kinautolu ʻoku pehē, ʻoku mau fekaua mo enginaki, ʻi hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ke nau ngaue fakalongo pe, pea kai ʻae maʻanautolu pe.
13But you, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
13Ka ko kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, ʻoua naʻa mou fiu ʻi he fai lelei.
14And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed:
14Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai talangofua ha taha ki he ʻemau fekau ʻi he tohi ni, fakaʻilongaʻi ʻae tangata ko ia, pea ʻoua naʻa fakataha mo ia, koeʻuhi ke mā ai ia.
15Yet do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
15Kae ʻoua naʻa lau ia ko e fili, kae valokiʻi ʻo taau mo ha kāinga.
16Now the Lord of peace himself give you everlasting peace in every place. The Lord be with you all.
16Ko eni, ʻofa ke foaki ʻe he ʻEiki ʻoe melino ʻae melino maʻuaipē kiate kimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē. Ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻae ʻEiki.
17The salutation of Paul with my own hand; which is the sign in every epistle. So I write.
17Ko e tohi ʻofa eni ʻa Paula ʻaki hoku nima ʻoʻoku, ʻaia ko e fakaʻilonga ʻi he ngaahi tohi kotoa pē: ʻoku pehē pe ʻeku tohi.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
18Ko e ʻaloʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi ke ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē. ʻEmeni.
