< 2 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life in Christ Jesus,
Shawul ndi u toh ndu Kristi ni kpa yeim Rji ni chu yu'u u dri wa ahei ni Kristi Yesu.
2 To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Timotawus vre u' son. Alheri jinkai sunsi rji ni Rji Timbu Kristi yesu Bachi bu
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.
Mi grie ni Rji wa mi si hu'a rji ni ba ti mu bi sen ni mere didima na misi ri mere me ni mi bre mu ni chu ni rji.
4 Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy.
Naki me ta ri mere me nimah shishi me'a, me ka you suron na mi toh u' du suron mu si.
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.
Ba time rah ni gbengbenlan suron 'u' didima wa ahei ni mi yin me niko Lois ha iyi me Afiniki, me kpayeim da ahei ni wu ngame naki.
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.
Ni tu kima me si hla 'u' du sur lu ni. Rji wa ahe ni wu, ni ton wa ki sa wohmbu ni wu tu'a.
7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
Irji na nota ruhu u ti sisir na; ama ahi u gbengblen ni son ni tsautawa.
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.
Na klu shan njo tre Bachi mbu na, ko ni me shawulu ni brusuna. zo me ki ti yah nitu tre ni gbengblen Rji.
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 g166)
Ahi Rji wawu'i kpata chuwo, da you ta ni Tsatsraka yo. A ti wa i' ana don idu bu na, ama ahi shirima mba alheri ma. A nota kpie bi yi ni Kristi Yesu riko u ton ka ye. (aiōnios g166)
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,
Naki zizan ceto Rji a shile ye Almasihu Kristi Yesu, Ahi Kristi a wawu'i aye kle ni que nda ji dri wa ana kle ni kpah ni tre'a na.
11 to which I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher.
Nakima, i baka chu me ti ndi 'u' hla tre'a ni ndi 'u' ton ndu, ni ndi u' tsro ba lftlft, ikpie bi didima ni 'u' bi sen Greek ba han. ifqa ni al'ummai. ifqa ifqa.
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.
Naki ma i me mi si tiyah ni kpie bi yi, ama ishan na ti me na, don mitoh wa mi kpayiem ni wu di wur shaka hle di ni ya zi kpi'a di mi nu, du, zi ni mu harmi ivri mu'a.
13 Hold on to the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me, with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Zi misali koyeswa dindin wa 'u' woh ni me, ni gbengblen ni son wa ba hei ni mi kristi yesu.
14 Guard the treasure entrusted to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
Ikpie dindi wa Rji ka han ni wu, gben ni irji tsratsra wa ahei ni ta
15 You know that everyone in the Province of Asia has deserted me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
Wu toh wai bi wa ba son ni Asia ba hi kpanmba da ka me don ni mimbo akini fijalas mba harmajanas.
16 May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed me and was unashamed of my chains.
Du Bachi no koh Onisiforus jinkai don chachu'u ani zo me, ana ta klu shan ni sarka wa ba loh me ni'u na.
17 Indeed, when he arrived in Rome, he searched diligently until he found me.
Ni wa ahei ni Roman, awa me sren shishi ri da toh me.
18 May the Lord grant Onesiphorus His mercy on that day. You know very well how much he ministered to me in Ephesus.
Du Bachi no 'u' jinkai nda ka zou ni vi kima. ko ani tan a si zo me ni Afisa, wu me u toh sosai.
