PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Debes saber que habrá momentos difíciles en los últimos días.
1 But know this: that in the last days, grievous times will come.
1 Τοῦτο δὲ γίνωσκε, ὅτι ἐν ἐσχάταις ἡμέραις ἐνστήσονται καιροὶ χαλεποί·
2 Habrá personas amadoras de sí mismas y del dinero. Serán jactanciosas, arrogantes, abusivas, desobedientes a sus padres, ingratas, y con ausencia de Dios en sus vidas.
2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
2 ἔσονται γὰρ οἱ ἄνθρωποι φίλαυτοι, φιλάργυροι, ἀλαζόνες, ὑπερήφανοι, βλάσφημοι, γονεῦσιν ἀπειθεῖς, ἀχάριστοι, ἀνόσιοι,
3 Con crueldad y sin perdón calumniarán y carecerán de dominio propio. Serán personas despiadadas que odian el bien,
3 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,
3 ἄστοργοι, ἄσπονδοι, διάβολοι, ἀκρατεῖς, ἀνήμεροι, ἀφιλάγαθοι,
4 y engañarán a otros, con total desconsideración. Son personas absurdamente vanidosas, que viven con tanto interés por el placer que no se preocuparán por amar a Dios.
4 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
4 προδόται, προπετεῖς, τετυφωμένοι, φιλήδονοι μᾶλλον ἢ φιλόθεοι,
5 Estas personas podrían dar una impresión externa de piedad, pero realmente no creen en su eficacia. ¡Aléjate de tales personas!
5 holding a form of godliness but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.
5 ἔχοντες μόρφωσιν εὐσεβείας, τὴν δὲ δύναμιν αὐτῆς ἠρνημένοι. καὶ τούτους ἀποτρέπου.
6 Esa es la clase de personas que sutilmente entra a los hogares y toman el control de esas mujeres vulnerables que cargan con la culpa del pecado y se distraen con todo tipo de deseos.
6 For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
6 ἐκ τούτων γάρ εἰσιν οἱ ἐνδύνοντες εἰς τὰς οἰκίας καὶ αἰχμαλωτίζοντες γυναικάρια σεσωρευμένα ἁμαρτίαις, ἀγόμενα ἐπιθυμίαις ποικίλαις,
7 Estas mujeres siempre están intentando aprender pero nunca pueden entender la verdad.
7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
7 πάντοτε μανθάνοντα καὶ μηδέποτε εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν ἀληθείας ἐλθεῖν δυνάμενα.
8 Así como Janes y Jambres se opusieron a Moisés, estos maestros también se oponen a la verdad. Son personas con mentes corruptas cuya supuesta fe en Dios es una mentira.
8 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.
8 ὃν τρόπον δὲ Ἰαννῆς καὶ Ἰαμβρῆς ἀντέστησαν Μωϋσεῖ, οὕτω καὶ οὗτοι ἀνθίστανται τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, ἄνθρωποι κατεφθαρμένοι τὸν νοῦν, ἀδόκιμοι περὶ τὴν πίστιν.
9 Pero estas personas no llegan muy lejos. Su ignorancia será evidente para todos, así como la de Janes y Jambres.
9 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.
9 ἀλλ᾽ οὐ προκόψουσιν ἐπὶ πλεῖον· ἡ γὰρ ἄνοια αὐτῶν ἔκδηλος ἔσται πᾶσιν, ὡς καὶ ἡ ἐκείνων ἐγένετο.
10 Pero tú conoces mi enseñanza y mi conducta, así como mi objetivo en la vida. Conoces mi fe en Dios y mi amor. Sabes lo que he tenido que soportar,
10 But you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness,
10 Σὺ δὲ παρηκολούθηκάς μου τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ, τῇ ἀγωγῇ, τῇ προθέσει, τῇ πίστει, τῇ μακροθυμίᾳ, τῇ ἀγάπῃ, τῇ ὑπομονῇ,
11 y cuánto he sufrido y he sido perseguido. Ya sabes lo que me sucedió en Antioquía, en Iconio y Listra, y las persecuciones que tuve y cómo el Señor me rescató de todas esas cosas.
11 persecutions, and sufferings—those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. The Lord delivered me out of them all.
11 τοῖς διωγμοῖς, τοῖς παθήμασιν, οἷά μοι ἐγένοντο ἐν Ἀντιοχείᾳ, ἐν Ἰκονίῳ, ἐν Λύστροις. οἵους διωγμοὺς ὑπήνεγκα! καὶ ἐκ πάντων με ἐρρύσατο ὁ Κύριος.
12 Sin duda, todos los que quieren vivir una vida de devoción a Dios en Cristo Jesús experimentarán persecución,
12 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
12 καὶ πάντες δὲ οἱ θέλοντες εὐσεβῶς ζῆν ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ διωχθήσονται·
13 mientras que las personas malas y los fraudulentos prosperen, siendo malos y después peores, engañando a los demás y engañándose ellos mismos también.
13 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
13 πονηροὶ δὲ ἄνθρωποι καὶ γόητες προκόψουσιν ἐπὶ τὸ χεῖρον, πλανῶντες καὶ πλανώμενοι.
14 Pero tú mantente fiel a las cosas que has aprendido y que sabes que son verdaderas. Porque sabes quién te las enseñó.
14 But you remain in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them.
14 σὺ δὲ μένε ἐν οἷς ἔμαθες καὶ ἐπιστώθης, εἰδὼς παρὰ τίνος ἔμαθες,
15 Desde tu niñez has conocido las Escrituras que pueden darte entendimiento para la salvación por la fe en Cristo Jesús.
15 From infancy, you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
15 καὶ ὅτι ἀπὸ βρέφους τὰ ἱερὰ γράμματα οἶδας, τὰ δυνάμενά σε σοφίσαι εἰς σωτηρίαν διὰ πίστεως τῆς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ.
16 Toda la Escritura inspirada por Dios es útil para enseñar, para confrontar lo que está mal, para enderezar nuestro camino, y para enseñarnos lo recto.
16 Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,
16 πᾶσα γραφὴ θεόπνευστος καὶ ὠφέλιμος πρὸς διδασκαλίαν, πρὸς ἔλεγχον, πρὸς ἐπανόρθωσιν, πρὸς παιδείαν τὴν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ,
17 Así es como Dios provee una preparación completa para aquellos que trabajan para él, para lograr todo lo que es bueno.
17 that each person who belongs to God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
17 ἵνα ἄρτιος ᾖ ὁ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἄνθρωπος, πρὸς πᾶν ἔργον ἀγαθὸν ἐξηρτισμένος.

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).
He had said in the former Epistle, that "the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith" (1 Tim. iv.

For, being driven away from Him who truly is [God], and being turned backwards, he shall be for ever seeking, yet shall never find out God; but shall continually swim in an abyss without limits, unless, being converted by repentance, he return to the place from which he had been cast out, confessing one God, the Father, the Creator, and …
… a reply to every exception which you hear taken to what you read in it; for so you would become like those silly women of whom the apostle says that they are "always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth."

… inharmoniously, and foolishly, not keeping always to the same opinions with regard to the same things, as blind men are led by the blind, they shall deservedly fall into the ditch of ignorance lying in their path, ever seeking and never finding out the truth. It behoves us, therefore, to avoid their doctrines, and to take careful heed lest we …
