1 συ ουν τεκνον μου ενδυναμου εν τη χαριτι τη εν χριστω ιησου
1 PUES tú, hijo mío, esfuérzate en la gracia que es en Cristo Jesús.
1 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 και α ηκουσασ παρ εμου δια πολλων μαρτυρων ταυτα παραθου πιστοισ ανθρωποισ οιτινεσ ικανοι εσονται και ετερουσ διδαξαι
2 Y lo que has oído de mí entre muchos testigos, esto encarga á los hombres fieles que serán idóneos para enseñar también á otros.
2 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.
3 συ ουν κακοπαθησον ωσ καλοσ στρατιωτησ ιησου χριστου
3 Tú pues, sufre trabajos como fiel soldado de Jesucristo.
3 You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
4 ουδεισ στρατευομενοσ εμπλεκεται ταισ του βιου πραγματειαισ ινα τω στρατολογησαντι αρεση
4 Ninguno que milita se embaraza en los negocios de la vida; á fin de agradar á aquel que lo tomó por soldado.
4 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
5 εαν δε και αθλη τισ ου στεφανουται εαν μη νομιμωσ αθληση
5 Y aun también el que lidia, no es coronado si no lidiare legítimamente.
5 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
6 τον κοπιωντα γεωργον δει πρωτον 4412 ADV-S των καρπων μεταλαμβανειν
6 El labrador, para recibir los frutos, es menester que trabaje primero.
6 The farmer who labors must be the first to get a share of the crops.
7 νοει α λεγω δωη γαρ σοι ο κυριοσ συνεσιν εν πασιν
7 Considera lo que digo; y el Señor te dé entendimiento en todo.
7 Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.
8 μνημονευε ιησουν χριστον εγηγερμενον εκ νεκρων εκ σπερματοσ δαυιδ κατα το ευαγγελιον μου
8 Acuérdate que Jesucristo, [el cual fué] de la simiente de David, resucitó de los muertos conforme á mi evangelio;
8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,
9 εν ω κακοπαθω μεχρι δεσμων ωσ κακουργοσ αλλ ο λογοσ του θεου ου δεδεται
9 En el que sufro trabajo, hasta las prisiones á modo de malhechor; mas la palabra de Dios no está presa.
9 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God’s word isn’t chained.
10 δια τουτο παντα υπομενω δια τουσ εκλεκτουσ ινα και αυτοι σωτηριασ τυχωσιν τησ εν χριστω ιησου μετα δοξησ αιωνιου
10 Por tanto, todo lo sufro por amor de los escogidos, para que ellos también consigan la salud que es en Cristo Jesús con gloria eterna.
10 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.
11 πιστοσ ο λογοσ ει γαρ συναπεθανομεν και συζησομεν
11 Es palabra fiel: Que si somos muertos con él, también viviremos con él:
11 This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.
12 ει υπομενομεν και συμβασιλευσομεν ει αρνουμεθα κακεινοσ αρνησεται ημασ
12 Si sufrimos, también reinaremos con él: si negáremos, él también nos negará:
12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, he also will deny us.
13 ει απιστουμεν εκεινοσ πιστοσ μενει αρνησασθαι εαυτον ου δυναται
13 Si fuéremos infieles, él permanece fiel: no se puede negar á sí mismo.
13 If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”
14 ταυτα υπομιμνησκε διαμαρτυρομενοσ ενωπιον του κυριου μη λογομαχειν εισ ουδεν χρησιμον επι καταστροφη των ακουοντων
14 Recuérdales esto, protestando delante del Señor que no contiendan en palabras, [lo cual] para nada aprovecha, [antes] trastorna á los oyentes.
14 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.
15 σπουδασον σεαυτον δοκιμον παραστησαι τω θεω εργατην ανεπαισχυντον ορθοτομουντα τον λογον τησ αληθειασ
15 Procura con diligencia presentarte á Dios aprobado, [como] obrero que no tiene de qué avergonzarse, que traza bien la palabra de verdad.
15 Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
16 τασ δε βεβηλουσ κενοφωνιασ περιιστασο επι πλειον γαρ προκοψουσιν ασεβειασ
16 Mas evita profanas [y] vanas parlerías; porque muy adelante irán en la impiedad.
16 But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,
17 και ο λογοσ αυτων ωσ γαγγραινα νομην εξει ων εστιν υμεναιοσ και φιλητοσ
17 Y la palabra de ellos carcomerá como gangrena: de los cuales es Himeneo y Fileto;
17 and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:
18 οιτινεσ περι την αληθειαν ηστοχησαν λεγοντεσ την αναστασιν ηδη γεγονεναι και ανατρεπουσιν την τινων πιστιν
18 Que se han descaminado de la verdad, diciendo que la resurrección es ya hecha, y trastornan la fe de algunos.
18 men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some.
19 ο 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
19 Pero el fundamento de Dios está firme, teniendo este sello: Conoce el Señor á los que son suyos; y: Apártese de iniquidad todo aquel que invoca el nombre de Cristo.
19 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.”
20 εν μεγαλη δε οικια ουκ εστιν μονον σκευη χρυσα και αργυρα αλλα και ξυλινα και οστρακινα και α μεν εισ τιμην α δε εισ ατιμιαν
20 Mas en una casa grande, no solamente hay vasos de oro y de plata, sino también de madera y de barro: y asimismo unos para honra, y otros para deshonra.
20 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.
21 εαν ουν τισ εκκαθαρη εαυτον απο τουτων εσται σκευοσ εισ τιμην ηγιασμενον και ευχρηστον τω δεσποτη εισ παν εργον αγαθον ητοιμασμενον
21 Así que, si alguno se limpiare de estas cosas, será vaso para honra, santificado, y útil para los usos del Señor, y aparejado para todo buena obra.
21 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.
22 τασ δε νεωτερικασ επιθυμιασ φευγε διωκε δε δικαιοσυνην πιστιν αγαπην ειρηνην μετα των επικαλουμενων τον κυριον εκ καθαρασ καρδιασ
22 Huye también los deseos juveniles; y sigue la justicia, la fe, la caridad, la paz, con los que invocan al Señor de puro corazón.
22 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 τασ δε μωρασ και απαιδευτουσ ζητησεισ παραιτου ειδωσ οτι γεννωσιν μαχασ
23 Empero las cuestiones necias y sin sabiduría desecha, sabiendo que engendran contiendas.
23 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they generate strife.
24 δουλον δε κυριου ου δει μαχεσθαι αλλ ηπιον ειναι προσ παντασ διδακτικον ανεξικακον
24 Que el siervo del Señor no debe ser litigioso, sino manso para con todos, apto para enseñar, sufrido;
24 The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,
25 εν πραοτητι παιδευοντα τουσ αντιδιατιθεμενουσ μηποτε δω αυτοισ ο θεοσ μετανοιαν εισ επιγνωσιν αληθειασ
25 Que con mansedumbre corrija á los que se oponen: si quizá Dios les dé que se arrepientan para conocer la verdad,
25 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him. Perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,
26 και ανανηψωσιν εκ τησ του διαβολου παγιδοσ εζωγρημενοι υπ αυτου εισ το εκεινου θελημα
26 Y se zafen del lazo del diablo, en que están cautivos á voluntad de él.
26 and they may recover themselves out of the devil’s snare, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The young sailor at sea is inspired with great confidence, if the Master of the ship has been preserved in a shipwreck. For he will not consider that it is from his inexperience that he is exposed to the storm, but from the nature of things; and this has no little effect upon his mind.

But those surgings in me required to find him at full leisure, that I might pour them out to him, but never were they able to find him so; and I heard him, indeed, every Lord's day, "rightly dividing the word of truth" among the people; and I was all the more convinced that all those knots of crafty calumnies, …

… discourses with us, both in the Old Testament, and in the New; in the one saying, "O my people, what have I done unto thee?" in the other, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me." And Paul too bids, "In meekness instruct those that oppose themselves." And Christ again, when His disciples had come to Him, requiring fire to come down …

Paul also saith, Remember Jesus Christ raised from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my Gospel: and in the beginning of the Epistle to the Romans he saith, Which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh.

… but rather of the succour rendered "in the power of his might."
