Odani vojnik Isusa Krista
2 A ti, sine moj, budi jak zbog milosti koju imamo u Isusu Kristu. 2 Ono što si čuo od mene u prisutnosti mnogih svjedoka povjeri ljudima od povjerenja, koji će biti sposobni i druge poučavati! 3 Pridruži nam se u trpljenju kao dobar vojnik Isusa Krista! 4 Vojnik se ne upliće u poslove svakodnevnoga života jer želi udovoljiti zapovjedniku. 5 Isto tako, sportaš ne dobiva nagradu ako se ne natječe po pravilima. 6 Poljoprivrednik, koji naporno radi, treba prvi uživati plodove žetve. 7 Razmisli o ovome što ti govorim; Gospodin će ti dati razumijevanje svega. 8 Stalno se sjećaj Isusa Krista, Davidovog potomka, koji je uskrsnuo od mrtvih! To je bit Radosne vijesti koju propovijedam. 9 Za nju i trpim nevolje, sve do toga da me vežu lancima poput zločinca. No Božja poruka nije okovana. 10 Zato sve to podnosim, radi Božjih izabranika, da bi i oni postigli spasenje u Isusu Kristu, a zajedno s njim i vječnu slavu.
11 Vjerodostojna je ova izjava:
Ako smo s njim umrli,
s njim ćemo i živjeti.
12 Ako ustrajemo, s njim ćemo vladati.
Ako ga se odreknemo, i on će se nas odreći.
13 Ako smo nevjerni, on ostaje vjeran,
jer sam sebe ne može poreći.
Radnik koji se dokazao
14 Stalno podsjećaj ljude na to! Upozori ih pred Bogom da se ne prepiru i ne hvataju jedni druge za riječ! To ne vodi ničemu, nego samo uništava one koji slušaju. 15 Trudi se da stekneš Božje odobravanje, kao radnik koji se nema čega sramiti jer ispravno poučava poruku istine. 16 Izbjegavaj prazne, svjetovne razgovore, jer oni koji sudjeluju u njima sve se više okreću protiv Boga, 17 a njihova se nauka širi i izjeda poput otvorene rane. Među njima su Himenej i Filet. 18 Oni su skrenuli s puta istine. Govore da se uskrsnuće već dogodilo i tako nekima uništavaju vjeru. 19 Bez obzira na to, temelj što ga je Bog postavio stoji čvrsto i nosi ovaj natpis: »Gospodin poznaje one koji su njegovi.«[a] i »Svatko tko kaže da pripada Gospodinu, mora prestati činiti zlo.«
20 U velikoj kući nisu sve posude zlatne i srebrne, nego ima i drvenih i glinenih. Jedne imaju plemenitu namjenu, a druge neplemenitu. 21 Ako se čovjek očisti od zla, bit će posuda za plemenitu namjenu i postat će posvećen. Bit će koristan Gospodaru i sposoban za svako dobro djelo.
22 Bježi od mladenačkih požuda i teži ispravnom životu, vjeri, ljubavi i miru, zajedno sa svima koji zazivaju Gospodina čistog srca! 23 Izbjegavaj luda i glupa prepiranja, jer znaš da će se razviti u sukobe. 24 A Božji sluga ne smije se svađati, nego mora biti ljubazan prema svima. Mora biti dobar i strpljiv učitelj. 25 Mora u blagosti poučavati svoje protivnike, u nadi da će im Bog dati obraćenje pa će spoznati istinu 26 i doći k pameti. Na taj način mogu pobjeći iz đavlove zamke, koji ih je zarobio da vrše njegovu volju.
2 Timothy 2
King James Version
2 Timothy 2
King James Version
2 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

The Appeal Renewed
2 You then, my son,(A) be strong(B) in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things you have heard me say(C) in the presence of many witnesses(D) entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. 3 Join with me in suffering,(E) like a good soldier(F) of Christ Jesus. 4 No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. 5 Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown(G) except by competing according to the rules. 6 The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops.(H) 7 Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this.
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead,(I) descended from David.(J) This is my gospel,(K) 9 for which I am suffering(L) even to the point of being chained(M) like a criminal. But God’s word(N) is not chained. 10 Therefore I endure everything(O) for the sake of the elect,(P) that they too may obtain the salvation(Q) that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.(R)
11 Here is a trustworthy saying:(S)
If we died with him,
we will also live with him;(T)
12 if we endure,
we will also reign with him.(U)
If we disown him,
he will also disown us;(V)
13 if we are faithless,
he remains faithful,(W)
for he cannot disown himself.
Dealing With False Teachers
14 Keep reminding God’s people of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words;(X) it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.(Y) 16 Avoid godless chatter,(Z) because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. 17 Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus(AA) and Philetus, 18 who have departed from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place,(AB) and they destroy the faith of some.(AC) 19 Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm,(AD) sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,”(AE) and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord(AF) must turn away from wickedness.”
20 In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use.(AG) 21 Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.(AH)
22 Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love(AI) and peace, along with those who call on the Lord(AJ) out of a pure heart.(AK) 23 Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.(AL) 24 And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful.(AM) 25 Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth,(AN) 26 and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil,(AO) who has taken them captive to do his will.

A Good Soldier of Christ Jesus
2 You then, (A)my child, (B)be strengthened by the grace that is in Christ Jesus, 2 and (C)what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses (D)entrust to faithful men,[a] (E)who will be able to teach others also. 3 (F)Share in suffering as (G)a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier (H)gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him. 5 (I)An athlete is not (J)crowned unless he competes according to the rules. 6 It is (K)the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops. 7 Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything.
8 Remember Jesus Christ, (L)risen from the dead, the (M)offspring of David, (N)as preached in my gospel, 9 (O)for which I am suffering, (P)bound with chains as a criminal. But (Q)the word of God is not bound! 10 Therefore (R)I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain (S)the salvation that is in Christ Jesus with (T)eternal glory. 11 The saying is (U)trustworthy, for:
(V)If we have died with him, we will also (W)live with him;
12 (X)if we endure, we will also reign with him;
(Y)if we deny him, he also will deny us;
13 (Z)if we are faithless, (AA)he remains faithful—
for (AB)he cannot deny himself.
A Worker Approved by God
14 Remind them of these things, and (AC)charge them before God[b] (AD)not to quarrel about words, (AE)which does no good, but only ruins the hearers. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved,[c] a worker (AF)who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. 16 But (AG)avoid (AH)irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness, 17 and their talk will spread like gangrene. Among them are (AI)Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18 who have swerved from the truth, (AJ)saying that the resurrection has already happened. They are upsetting the faith of some. 19 But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: (AK)“The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone (AL)who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.”
20 Now in (AM)a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, (AN)some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. 21 Therefore, (AO)if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable,[d] he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, (AP)ready for every good work.
22 So (AQ)flee (AR)youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with (AS)those who call on the Lord (AT)from a pure heart. 23 Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant (AU)controversies; you know that they breed quarrels. 24 And (AV)the Lord's servant[e] must not be quarrelsome but (AW)kind to everyone, (AX)able to teach, patiently enduring evil, 25 correcting his opponents (AY)with gentleness. God (AZ)may perhaps grant them repentance (BA)leading to a knowledge of the truth, 26 and they may come to their senses and escape from (BB)the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.
