2 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life in Christ Jesus,
Pavao, apostol Krista Isusa voljom Božjom, po obećanju života, života u Kristu Isusu,
2 To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Timoteju, ljubljenom sinu: milost, milosrđe i mir od Boga Oca i Krista Isusa, Gospodina našega.
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.
Zahvalan sam Bogu, kojemu onamo od predaka čiste savjesti služim, dok te se neprestano spominjem u svojim molitvama noć i dan.
4 Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy.
Sjetim se tvojih suza i zaželim vidjeti te da se napunim radosti
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.
imajući na pameti neprijetvornu vjeru koja je u tebi - onu vjeru koja je najprije prebivala u tvojoj baki Loidi i tvojoj majci Euniki, a uvjeren sam, i u tebi.
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.
Poradi toga podsjećam te: raspiruj milosni dar Božji koji je u tebi po polaganju mojih ruku.
7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
Jer nije nam Bog dao duha bojažljivosti, nego snage, ljubavi i razbora.
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.
Ne stidi se stoga svjedočanstva za Gospodina našega, ni mene, sužnja njegova. Nego zlopati se zajedno sa mnom za evanđelje, po snazi Boga
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)
koji nas je spasio i pozvao pozivom svetim - ne po našim djelima, nego po svojem naumu i milosti koja nam je dana u Kristu Isusu prije vremena vjekovječnih, (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,
a očitovana je sada pojavkom Spasitelja našega Krista Isusa, koji obeskrijepi smrt i učini da zasja život i neraspadljivost - po evanđelju
11 to which I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher.
za koje sam ja postavljen propovjednikom, apostolom i učiteljem.
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.
Poradi toga i ovo trpim, ali se ne stidim jer znam komu sam povjerovao i uvjeren sam da je on moćan poklad moj sačuvati za onaj Dan.
13 Hold on to the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me, with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Uzorom neka ti budu zdrave riječi koje si od mene čuo u vjeri i ljubavi u Kristu Isusu.
14 Guard the treasure entrusted to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
Lijepi poklad čuvaj po Duhu Svetom koji prebiva u nama.
15 You know that everyone in the Province of Asia has deserted me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
Napustiše me, to znaš, svi u Aziji, među njima i Figel i Hermogen.
16 May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed me and was unashamed of my chains.
Neka Gospodin milosrđem podari Oneziforov dom jer me često osvježivao i nije se stidio mojih okova,
17 Indeed, when he arrived in Rome, he searched diligently until he found me.
nego kad je bio u Rimu, brižljivo me potražio i našao.
18 May the Lord grant Onesiphorus His mercy on that day. You know very well how much he ministered to me in Ephesus.
Dao mu Gospodin naći milosrđe u Gospodina u onaj Dan! A koliko je usluga u Efezu iskazao, to ti najbolje znaš.
