< 2 Timothy 1 >
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life in Christ Jesus,
Une che Paolo nduna jwa Kilisito Yesu, kwa kusaka Akunnungu uŵasagwile une kuti nyenesye chilanga cha umi watulinawo nkulumbikana ni Kilisito Yesu.
2 To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ngunnembela mmwe che Timoseo mwanangu jwaunonyelo. Ngunsachila umbone ni chanasa ni chitendewele kutyochela kwa Akunnungu Atati ni kwa Ambuje ŵetu Kilisito Yesu.
3 I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience as did my forefathers, as I constantly remember you night and day in my prayers.
Ngwatogolela Akunnungu ungwatumichila kwa ntima waukuunosya kuti jwangali chileŵo mpela iŵatite achambuje ŵetu, ngwatogolela Akunnungu kila pangunkumbuchila mmapopelo gangu muusi ni chilo.
4 Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy.
Ngujikumbuchila misosi jenu, ngulajila kwannope kummona kuti ng'umbaswe lukondwa.
5 I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am convinced is in you as well.
Nguchikumbuchila chikulupi chisyenesyene chachili mwenumwe, chikulupi chakwete anganga ŵenu che Loisi ni iyoyopeyo achikulu ŵenu che Eunike. Isyene nguimanyilila kuti nomwe nkwete.
6 For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
Kwa ligongo lyo ngunkumbusya kuti nkwisile ntuuka wa Akunnungu wauli nkati mwenu umwapochele panansajichile makono gangu.
7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
Pakuŵa Mbumu jwatupele Akunnungu ngaŵa jwakututenda tuŵe ŵakogopa, ngwamba, nambo ali Mbumu jwao jwakutupa machili ni unonyelo ni ntima wa kulisiŵila.
8 So do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, or of me, His prisoner. Instead, join me in suffering for the gospel by the power of God.
Ngasinkola soni nkwasalila ŵandu ŵane umboni wa ngani sya Ambuje ŵetu atamuno nkakola soni kwanguune jwandaŵikwe kwa ligongo lyao. Nambo mme pamo none nkulaga kwa ligongo lya Ngani Jambone malinga ni machili gampegwilwe ni Akunnungu.
9 He has saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works, but by His own purpose and by the grace He granted us in Christ Jesus before time began. (aiōnios )
Ŵelewo ŵatukulupwisye ni kutuŵilanga kuti tuŵe ŵandu ŵakwe, ngaŵa kwa isambo yetu yambone itwaitesile, nambo kwa ligongo lya kusaka kwao asyene ni kwa umbone wao. Ni ŵatupele umbone wao kwa litala lya Kilisito Yesu chitandilile moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios )
10 And now He has revealed this grace through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who has abolished death and illuminated the way to life and immortality through the gospel,
Nambo sambano umbone wa Akunnungu uwunukulikwe kwa kwika kwakwe Nkulupusyo jwetu, Kilisito Yesu. Ŵelewo agapundile machili ga chiwa ni kwa litala lya Ngani Jambone atuwunukulile umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.
11 to which I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher.
Kwayele une nasagulikwe ni Akunnungu kuti me nduna ni jwakwiganya kwa ligongo lya kwalalichila ŵandu Ngani Jambone.
12 For this reason, even though I suffer as I do, I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him for that day.
Kwa ligongo lya yele ngusauka ni indu yi. Nambo ngangujogopa kwa ligongo lya yele pakuŵa ngwamanyilila ŵelewo unakulupilile ni ngumanyilila kusyene kuti akukombola kuchigosa achila chiŵambele mpaka lyuŵa lichauje.
13 Hold on to the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me, with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Mgakamulichisye majiganyo ga usyenesyene gananjiganyisye, mu chikulupi ni unonyelo wauli nkulumbikana ni Kilisito Yesu.
14 Guard the treasure entrusted to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
Mchigose yambone chimpegwile kwa ukamuchisyo wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jwakutama mwetuwe.
15 You know that everyone in the Province of Asia has deserted me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
Mpela inkuti pakuimanyilila kuti ŵandu achajinji wa kuchilambo cha Asia anesile, mwa ŵele apali che Fugelo ni che Helimogene.
16 May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed me and was unashamed of my chains.
Ambuje ŵatendele chanasa ŵandu ŵa pannango u che Onesifolo, pakuŵa ŵausengwasisye ntima wangu katema kakajinji kwa kwika kukumona. Ni nganijatenda soni kwa chitaŵiko changu.
17 Indeed, when he arrived in Rome, he searched diligently until he found me.
Katema paŵaiche ku Loma ŵatandite kusosasosa kwannope mpaka ŵasimene.
18 May the Lord grant Onesiphorus His mercy on that day. You know very well how much he ministered to me in Ephesus.
Ngwachondelela Ambuje ŵatendele chanasa che Onesifolo pa lyuŵa lya kulamulikwa! Nomwe nkuimanyilila yambone iŵandendele une ku Efeso kula.
