3
You gotta suffa any kine bad kine stuff, jalike all us guys, cuz you jalike one army guy fo Jesus Christ, an you really like do good job lidat.4 Anybody in da army, dey no do all da regula kine stuff da odda guys do dat not army guys. Da army guys, dey ony do wat dea army leada guy tell um fo do, fo make him stay good inside.
5 Same ting, jalike if one guy like win one race, he no can win if he no do wat da rules say.
6 An one mo ting, da farma guy dat do all da hard work, he da guy dat suppose to get his share first.
7 Tink hard bout wat I telling you. Cuz da Boss, he goin make shua you undastan everyting I say.
8
So tink plenny bout Jesus, da Spesho Guy God Wen Send. He da One dat wen come from King David ohana. God wen make him come back alive, afta he wen mahke. An dass da Good Kine Stuff From God dat I stay telling everybody.9 Wen I tell peopo dis, dey make me suffa. Sometimes dey even tie me up wit chains jalike I one crook. But you know wat? No can tie up da stuff God say wit one chain!
10 Dass why I stay hanging in dea wen dey do any kine to me -- cuz I like help da peopo God wen pick. If I do dat, den dey goin come tight wit Jesus Christ, an God goin take um outa da bad kine stuff dey stay in, an he goin make um come awesome jalike him foeva.
11 You can trus me wen I tell you dis:
“If us guys mahke wit Christ, We goin live to da max wit him.12 An if us guys hang in dea, We goin come kings wit Christ da King.
But if we say, ‘We donno Christ!’ Den he goin say, ‘I donno dem guys!’13 Even if us guys give up wen God stay trus us, God, he everytime goin do wat he say.
He no goin ack like he not God.” Da Worka Guy Dat Do Good Job14
Da church peopo ova dea by you, dey know all dis awready, but you gotta tell um, ova an ova. You gotta tell um serious kine, jalike dey in front God. Tell um, no make argue, cuz dat no help nobody. Ony jam up da peopo dat listen.15 Mo betta you go all out, so wen God tink bout you, he know you fo real, cuz you do good job. He know you one worka guy dat no need feel shame, cuz you teach wass true, an you teach um da right way.
16 Az why, wen odda guys tell wase time kine stuff dat make like God no matta, you betta get outa dea. How dey talk, make you mo far way from God.
17 Da tings dey say make everyting come all pilau. Hymeneus an Filetus, dey talk lidat, an get odda guys dat talk jalike dem.
18 Dem guys wen go away from da true stuff. Dey say, “Da mahke guys, dey wen come back alive awready.” Dey mess up some peopo, an den dose peopo no like trus God no moa.
19
But you know wat? Da stuff God stay doing stay solid, jalike one building dat get solid foundation undaneat an no can move, yeah? An on top dat foundation, get one sign dat say two tings. One side say,“Da Boss, he know all his peopo.” An da odda side say,“Anybody who say, ‘I da Bossʼs guy,’ Dey gotta stop doing everyting dat no stay right.”20
You know, inside one big house, get all kine bowls an plates. Some, dey make um wit gold an silva fo spesho time. Get some odda bowls an plates, dey make um wit wood an clay fo use um fo junk kine stuff.21 So, dass jalike if anybody go clean up da pilau kine stuff inside dea heart, dey goin come jalike da spesho kine bowls an plates -- dey goin be spesho fo God. Da Boss can use um, an dey stay ready fo go do any good kine stuff fo him.
22
Eh Timoty! Watch out! No be like da younga guys, da way dey jam up cuz dey like do any kine stuff. Mo betta, you go all out fo do da right ting everytime, fo trus God, fo get love an aloha, an fo let yoa heart rest inside. All da peopo dat tell God dey his guys, an get clean heart inside, dey like do da right ting everytime -- so you gotta make jalike dem.23 But no get mix up wit all da kine stupid talk from da guys dat donno notting. Dey ony like make argue bout everyting. You gotta figga, if you talk lidat, den you goin stay make argue everytime.
24
But wen one guy work fo da Boss, he not suppose to like make argue, you know. He suppose to be friends wit everybody, an be one good teacha, an no stay huhu at da odda peopo.25 Wen peopo talk agains him, he gotta teach um da true stuff, but do um nice. Den God can make dem change dea mind, an make dem so dey can know da trut.
26 Den dey can come smart an get outa da trap dey stay in, cuz da Devil wen catch um an make um do wat he like um fo do.
1 Rememba dis: befo da world goin pau, everybody goin presha out.
2 Peopo ony goin tink dey da mos importan guy. Dey ony goin like get money fo demself. Dey goin like talk big bout demself. Dey goin ack like dey mo betta den da odda peopo. Dey goin talk stink bout odda peopo. Dey no goin do wat dea mudda an fadda tell um. Dey no goin even say “Mahalo” fo notting. Dey goin do any kine agains God.
3 Dey no goin get love an aloha. Dey no goin give chance to nobody. Dey goin like poin finga, no matta dey bulai. Dey no goin stay in charge a demself. Dey goin like see odda peopo suffa. Dey goin hate everyting dass good.
4 Dey goin set up odda peopo. Dey goin do any kine an no tink. Dey goin ack big head. Dey ony goin like wat feel good fo dem, dass why dey no goin like get love an aloha fo God.
5 Dey goin ack like dey real religious peopo, but da way dey live, show dat dea kine religion no mo power. You gotta stay away from dat kine peopo.
6 Some a dem, dey like make good friends wit da peopo inside one ohana. Some wahines, dey bulai dem an take um from dat ohana. Dose wahines no stay strong inside, cuz dey wen do choke bad kine stuff, an dat bodda dem, but dey no can handle. Dey ony like do any kine how dey like.
7 Dey everytime like listen to any kine teacha, but dey no can figga out wass true.
8
You rememba wat wen happen Egypt side, dat time da Egypt guys Jannes an Jambres wen try fo go agains Moses, but dey no can. Get guys nowdays, dey da same -- dey everytime tink dey can go agains da stuff dat stay true. Dea tinking all hamajang, az why dey no trus God, an God, he no take dem.9 But dey no goin bodda plenny peopo -- cuz everybody can see dat dea tinking all hamajang. Jalike how was wit Jannes an Jambres befo time. Da Last Ting Paul Tell Timoty He Gotta Do
10
But you, Timoty, you not like dem guys dat tinking all hamajang. You stay tight wit me from befo time. You know how I stay teach, how I stay live, an wat I trying fo do, how I stay trus God, how I hang in dea, how I get love an aloha, an how I handle da presha.11 An you know dat peopo wen give me hard time. I wen suffa plenny Antioch side, an Iconium side, an Lystra side. I wen handle all kine presha, you know, an da Boss, he wen take me outa all dat.
12
An you know wat? Everybody dat like live da way God like, an stay tight wit Godʼs Spesho Guy Jesus Christ, peopo goin make dem suffa.13 An da bad kine peopo, an da peopo dat bulai, dey goin ack mo an mo worse. Dey goin bulai peopo, but dey ony bulai dea own self, you know.
14
But you, Timoty, you gotta stick wit da stuff you wen learn, dat you gotta make shua odda peopo know um too. Cuz you know da peopo dat wen teach you all dis, an you know how dey stay.15 From small kid time, you know awready da tings da peopo from befo time wen write inside Godʼs Spesho Book, da Bible. You know dat dis stuff, can make you come smart fo know how fo live, fo get outa da bad kine stuff. Az why gotta trus Godʼs Spesho Guy Jesus Christ, an gotta stay tight wit him.
16 Eh, everyting inside da Bible stay dea, cuz God wen put um inside da guys heads dat wen talk fo him befo time. Dass why everyting inside da Bible, can use um fo teach, an fo show wat stay wrong, an fo help peopo pau do da bad kine stuff an come back an stick wit da good kine stuff, an fo teach peopo fo do wass right.
17 So from dat, da one dat stay all out fo God can get everyting dey need fo do all kine good kine stuff.
1 An right now I telling you serious kine fo do all dis stuff, jalike me an you stay standing in front God an his Spesho Guy Jesus Christ. Jesus, he da One dat stay da Judge fo da peopo dat stay alive, an da peopo dat stay mahke too. I trussing you fo do all dis stuff, cuz you know dat Christ goin come back an take ova everyting, cuz he da King.
2 So dis wat you gotta do: tell everybody wat God say. You gotta be ready an go all out, no matta if everyting going good, o bad. Wen anybody do bad kine stuff, tell um how come was bad, an tell um dey betta stop. Give um good kine words. Fo all dis, you gotta stick wit dem guys fo long time, an you gotta teach um good.

You know, da time goin come, wen peopo no goin listen to da peopo who like teach da solid kine stuff. Dey goin do any kine how dey like. Dass why dey goin bring togedda mo an mo teacha guys, but ony fo teach um da kine stuff dey like hear.4 Dey no goin listen to da true stuff, an dey goin go da odda way. But dey goin like listen to any kine make up stories dat not true.
