弟茂德后书:Chapter 2

弟茂德后书	2 Timothy
¹所以，我儿！你应因那在基督耶稣内的恩宠坚强起来，	¹You, my son, be strong with the grace you have in Christ Jesus.
²应把你在许多证人前由我所听的，传授给忠信可靠的人，使他们也能够教导别人。	²Entrust to reliable people everything you have learned from me in the presence of many witnesses, that they may instruct others.
³应如同基督耶稣的精兵，与我共受劳苦。	³Labor like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
⁴没有一个当兵的为叫他的元帅喜欢，而让日常的俗务缠身的。	⁴No soldier gets involved in civilian trade; the soldier's aim is to please his commanding officer.
⁵若有人竞赛，除非按规矩竞赛，是得不到花冠的。	⁵No athlete is crowned unless he competes according to the rules.
⁶劳苦的农夫，理当先享受产物。	⁶And again, the farmer who tills the land is the first to enjoy the fruits of the harvest.
⁷你要了解我所说的话；其实主必要赐你了解一切。	⁷Think over what I am telling you; the Lord will give you understanding in everything.
⁸你务要记住：根据我所传的福音，达味的后裔耶稣基督从死者中复活了。	⁸Remember Christ Jesus, risen from the dead, Jesus, son of David, as preached in my Gospel.
⁹为了这福音，我受苦以至带锁链，如同凶犯一样；但是天主的道，决束缚不住。	⁹For this Gospel I labor and even wear chains like an evildoer, but the word of God is not chained.
¹⁰为此，我为蒙选的人忍受一切，为使他们也获得那在基督耶稣内的救恩和永远的光荣。	¹⁰And so I bear everything for the sake of the chosen people, that they, too, may obtain the salvation given to us in Christ Jesus and share eternal glory.
¹¹这话是确实的：如果我们与他同死，也必与他同生；	¹¹This statement is true:
¹²如果我们坚忍到底，也必与他一同为王；如果我们否认他，他也必要否认我们；	¹²If we have died with him, we shall also live with him; If we deny him, he will also deny us;
¹³如果我们不忠信，他仍然是忠信的，因为他不能否认自己。	¹³If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful for he cannot deny himself.
¹⁴你要提醒人这些事：在天主前恳切劝戒他们，不要在言词上争辩，因为争辩除能颠覆听众外，丝毫没有益处。	¹⁴Remind your people of these things and urge them in the presence of God not to fight over words, which does no good, but only ruins those who listen.
¹⁵你要努力在天主前，显示自己是经得起考验的，是无愧的工人，正确地讲授真理之言。	¹⁵Be for God an active and proved minister, a blameless worker correctly handling the word of truth.
¹⁶至于那凡俗的空谈，务要躲避，因为这些空谈，多使人趋于不敬。	¹⁶Do not take part in useless conversations, alien to the faith. This leads to a greater lack of faith.
¹⁷这些人的言论如同毒癌，愈烂愈大；其中就有依默纳约和非肋托，	¹⁷Such teaching spreads like gangrene: I am thinking of Hymeneus and Philetus.
¹⁸他们离开了真理，说复活已是过去的事，颠覆了一些人的信仰。	¹⁸They strayed from the truth, holding that resurrection has already taken place; and with this they upset the faith of some.
¹⁹但是天主坚固的基础，屹立不动，且有这样的刻文说：「主认识那些属于他的人。」又说：「凡呼号主名的人，应远离邪恶。」	¹⁹But the solid foundations laid by God are not shaken; on them it is written: The Lord knows those who are his, and: Let him who confesses the name of the Lord turn away from evil.
²⁰在大户家庭中，不但有金器和银器，而且也有木器和瓦器；有作贵重之用的，也有作卑贱之用的；	²⁰In a large house we find not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. Some are reserved for special uses, others, for ordinary ones.
²¹所以人若自洁，离开卑贱的，必然成为贵重的，圣洁的，有益于主人，便利行各种善工的器皿。	²¹All who clean themselves of what I speak of, will become a noble vessel, useful to the Lord, prepared for any holy purpose.
²²你要躲避青年的贪欲，但要同那些以纯洁之心呼号主的人们，追求正义、信德、爱德与平安。	²²So shun the passions of youth and seek righteousness, faith, love and peace, together with those who call upon the Lord with a pure heart.
²³至于那些愚昧和粗野的辩论，务要躲避，因为你知道辩论只会产生争吵。	²³Avoid stupid and senseless discussions, since such are the cause of misunderstanding.
²⁴主的仆人不应当争吵，但要和气对待众人，善于教导；凡事忍耐，	²⁴God's servant must not be quarrelsome, but kind to all, always teaching and patient with those who do not understand,
²⁵以温和开导反抗的人，或许天主会赐他们悔改而认识真理，	²⁵gently correct opponents; perhaps God may grant them to repent and discover the truth,
²⁶使这些被魔鬼活捉去顺从他心意的人，能觉悟过来，摆脱魔鬼的罗网。	²⁶withdrawing them from the snare of the devil who held them captive to his own will.
