Tu ergo fili mi, confortare in gratia, quae est in Christo Jesu :
You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
我兒啊，你要在基督耶穌的恩典上剛強起來。
2:2
et quae audisti a me per multos testes, haec commenda fidelibus hominibus, qui idonei erant et alios docere.
The 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.
你在許多見證人面前聽見我所教訓的，也要交託那忠心能教導別人的人。

Labora sicut bonus miles Christi Jesu.
You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
你要和我同受苦難，好像基督耶穌的精兵。
2:4
Nemo militans Deo implicat se negotiis saecularibus : ut ei placeat, cui se probavit.
No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
凡在軍中當兵的，不將世務纏身，好叫那招他當兵的人喜悅。

Nam et qui certat in agone, non coronatur nisi legitime certaverit.
Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.

Memor esto Dominum Jesum Christum resurrexisse a mortuis ex semine David, secundum Evangelium meum,
Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,
你要記念耶穌基督乃是大衛的後裔，他從死裏復活，正合乎我所傳的福音。
2:9
in quo laboro usque ad vincula, quasi male operans : sed verbum Dei non est alligatum.
in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God’s word isn’t chained.
我為這福音受苦難，甚至被捆綁，像犯人一樣。然而上帝的道卻不被捆綁。
2:10
Ideo omnia sustineo propter electos, ut et ipsi salutem consequantur, quae est in Christo Jesu, cum gloria caelesti.
Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
所以，我為選民凡事忍耐，叫他們也可以得着那在基督耶穌裏的救恩和永遠的榮耀。
2:11
Fidelis sermo : nam si commortui sumus, et convivemus :
This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
有可信的話說： 我們若與基督同死，也必與他同活；
2:12
si sustinebimus, et conregnabimus : si negaverimus, et ille negabit nos :
If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
我們若能忍耐，也必和他一同作王。 我們若不認他，他也必不認我們；
2:13
si non credimus, ille fidelis permanet, negare seipsum non potest.
If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”
我們縱然失信，他仍是可信的， 因為他不能背乎自己。
2:14
Haec commone, testificans coram Domino. Noli contendere verbis : ad nihil enim utile est, nisi ad subversionem audientium.
Remind 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.
你要使眾人回想這些事，在主面前囑咐他們：不可為言語爭辯；這是沒有益處的，只能敗壞聽見的人。
2:15
Sollicite cura teipsum probabilem exhibere Deo, operarium inconfusibilem, recte tractantem verbum veritatis.
Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
你當竭力在上帝面前得蒙喜悅，作無愧的工人，按着正意分解真理的道。
2:16
Profana autem et vaniloquia devita : multum enim proficiunt ad impietatem :
But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,
但要遠避世俗的虛談，因為這等人必進到更不敬虔的地步。
2:17
et sermo eorum ut cancer serpit : ex quibus est Hymenaeus et Philetus,
and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:
他們的話如同毒瘡，越爛越大；其中有許米乃和腓理徒，
2:18
qui a veritate exciderunt, dicentes resurrectionem esse jam factam, et subverterunt quorumdam fidem.
men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
他們偏離了真道，說復活的事已過，就敗壞好些人的信心。
2:19
Sed firmum fundamentum Dei stat, habens signaculum hoc : cognovit Dominus qui sunt ejus, et discedat ab iniquitate omnis qui nominat nomen Domini.
However, 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.”
然而，上帝堅固的根基立住了；上面有這印記說：「主認識誰是他的人」；又說：「凡稱呼主名的人總要離開不義。」
2:20
In magna autem domo non solum sunt vasa aurea, et argentea, sed et lignea, et fictilia : et quaedam quidem in honorem, quaedam autem in contumeliam.
Now 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.
在大戶人家，不但有金器銀器，也有木器瓦器；有作為貴重的，有作為卑賤的。
2:21
Si quis ergo emundaverit se ab istis, erit vas in honorem sanctificatum, et utile Domino ad omne opus bonum paratum.
If 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.
人若自潔，脫離卑賤的事，就必作貴重的器皿，成為聖潔，合乎主用，預備行各樣的善事。
2:22
Juvenilia autem desideria fuge, sectare vero justitiam, fidem, spem, caritatem, et pacem cum iis qui invocant Dominum de corde puro.
Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
你要逃避少年的私慾，同那清心禱告主的人追求公義、信德、仁愛、和平。
2:23
Stultas autem et sine disciplina quaestiones devita : sciens quia generant lites.
But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
惟有那愚拙無學問的辯論，總要棄絕，因為知道這等事是起爭競的。
2:24
Servum autem Domini non oportet litigare : sed mansuetum esse ad omnes, docibilem, patientem,
The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,
然而主的僕人不可爭競，只要溫溫和和地待眾人，善於教導，存心忍耐，
2:25
cum modestia corripientem eos qui resistunt veritati, nequando Deus det illis poenitentiam ad cognoscendam veritatem,
in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
用溫柔勸戒那抵擋的人；或者上帝給他們悔改的心，可以明白真道，
2:26
et resipiscant a diaboli laqueis, a quo captivi tenentur ad ipsius voluntatem.
and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
叫他們這已經被魔鬼任意擄去的，可以醒悟，脫離他的網羅。
