Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
1συ ουν τεκνον μου ενδυναμου εν τη χαριτι τη εν χριστω ιησου
2The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same things to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
2και α ηκουσασ παρ εμου δια πολλων μαρτυρων ταυτα παραθου πιστοισ ανθρωποισ οιτινεσ ικανοι εσονται και ετερουσ διδαξαι
3You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
3συ ουν κακοπαθησον ωσ καλοσ στρατιωτησ ιησου χριστου
4No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
4ουδεισ στρατευομενοσ εμπλεκεται ταισ του βιου πραγματειαισ ινα τω στρατολογησαντι αρεση
5Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
5εαν δε και αθλη τισ ου στεφανουται εαν μη νομιμωσ αθληση
6The farmer who labors must be the first to get a share of the crops.
6τον κοπιωντα γεωργον δει πρωτον 4412 ADV-S των καρπων μεταλαμβανειν
7Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.
7νοει α λεγω δωη γαρ σοι ο κυριοσ συνεσιν εν πασιν
8Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,
8μνημονευε ιησουν χριστον εγηγερμενον εκ νεκρων εκ σπερματοσ δαυιδ κατα το ευαγγελιον μου
9in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God’s word isn’t chained.
9εν ω κακοπαθω μεχρι δεσμων ωσ κακουργοσ αλλ ο λογοσ του θεου ου δεδεται
10Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
10δια τουτο παντα υπομενω δια τουσ εκλεκτουσ ινα και αυτοι σωτηριασ τυχωσιν τησ εν χριστω ιησου μετα δοξησ αιωνιου
11This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
11πιστοσ ο λογοσ ει γαρ συναπεθανομεν και συζησομεν
12If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
12ει υπομενομεν και συμβασιλευσομεν ει αρνουμεθα κακεινοσ αρνησεται ημασ
13If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”
13ει απιστουμεν εκεινοσ πιστοσ μενει αρνησασθαι εαυτον ου δυναται
14Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of the Lord that they don’t argue about words to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.
14ταυτα υπομιμνησκε διαμαρτυρομενοσ ενωπιον του κυριου μη λογομαχειν εισ ουδεν χρησιμον επι καταστροφη των ακουοντων
15Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
15σπουδασον σεαυτον δοκιμον παραστησαι τω θεω εργατην ανεπαισχυντον ορθοτομουντα τον λογον τησ αληθειασ
16But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,
16τασ δε βεβηλουσ κενοφωνιασ περιιστασο επι πλειον γαρ προκοψουσιν ασεβειασ
17and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:
17και ο λογοσ αυτων ωσ γαγγραινα νομην εξει ων εστιν υμεναιοσ και φιλητοσ
18men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
18οιτινεσ περι την αληθειαν ηστοχησαν λεγοντεσ την αναστασιν ηδη γεγονεναι και ανατρεπουσιν την τινων πιστιν
19However, God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.”
19ο μεντοι στερεοσ θεμελιοσ του θεου εστηκεν εχων την σφραγιδα ταυτην εγνω κυριοσ τουσ οντασ αυτου και αποστητω απο αδικιασ πασ ο ονομαζων το ονομα κυριου
20Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor and some for dishonor.
20εν μεγαλη δε οικια ουκ εστιν μονον σκευη χρυσα και αργυρα αλλα και ξυλινα και οστρακινα και α μεν εισ τιμην α δε εισ ατιμιαν
21If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master’s use, prepared for every good work.
21εαν ουν τισ εκκαθαρη εαυτον απο τουτων εσται σκευοσ εισ τιμην ηγιασμενον και ευχρηστον τω δεσποτη εισ παν εργον αγαθον ητοιμασμενον
22Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
22τασ δε νεωτερικασ επιθυμιασ φευγε διωκε δε δικαιοσυνην πιστιν αγαπην ειρηνην μετα των επικαλουμενων τον κυριον εκ καθαρασ καρδιασ
23But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
23τασ δε μωρασ και απαιδευτουσ ζητησεισ παραιτου ειδωσ οτι γεννωσιν μαχασ
24The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,
24δουλον δε κυριου ου δει μαχεσθαι αλλ ηπιον ειναι προσ παντασ διδακτικον ανεξικακον
25in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
25εν πραοτητι παιδευοντα τουσ αντιδιατιθεμενουσ μηποτε δω αυτοισ ο θεοσ μετανοιαν εισ επιγνωσιν αληθειασ
26and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
26και ανανηψωσιν εκ τησ του διαβολου παγιδοσ εζωγρημενοι υπ αυτου εισ το εκεινου θελημα
