2 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, according to the promise of life, which is in Christ Jesus.
Nne a Pauli, kwa pinga kwabho a Nnungu, njemilwe kubha ntume jwa a Yeshu Kilishitu, nkupinga nunguye ga gumi gubhalajile a Nnungu tupegwe, nkulundana na a Yeshu Kilishitu,
2 To Timothy my dearly beloved son, grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from Christ Jesus our Lord.
ngunakunnjandishila mmwe mmanangu a Timoteo bhungumpinga. Ngunakumpinjila mboka, na shiya, na ulele ikoposhela kwa Atati a Nnungu, na a Yeshu Kilishitu Bhakulungwa bhetu.
3 I give thanks to God, whom I serve from my forefathers with a pure conscience, that without ceasing, I have a remembrance of thee in my prayers, night and day.
Ngunakwaatendela eja a Nnungu bhungwatendela liengo kwa ntima gwa mmbone malinga shibhatendangaga ashaambuje bhukala, ngunakwaatendela eja kila pungunkumbushila mmwe mobha gowe, nkujuga kwangu shilo na mui.
4 Desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy,
Pungukumbushila minyoi jenu, ngunalokolila kummona nkupinga kuangalala kwangu kupunde.
5 Calling to mind that faith which is in thee unfeigned, which also dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice, and I am certain that in thee also.
Ngunakumbushila ngulupai jenu ja kweli, ngulupai jatandubhile kwa anakulu bhenu a Loishi na anyinabhenu a Eunike. Kwa nneyo ngunakulupalila kuti, jipali nkali kwenu mmwe.
6 For which cause I admonish thee, that thou stir up the grace of God which is in thee, by the imposition of my hands.
Kwa nneyo ngunakunkumbushiya kuti nkwiye shipaji sha a Nnungu, shimposhele punammishile makono.
7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear: but of power, and of love, and of sobriety.
Pabha a Nnungu bhangatupa Mbumu jwa bhoga, ikabhe Mbumu jwa mashili, na jwa pingana, na jwa kwiitimalika.
8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but labour with the gospel, according to the power of God,
Bhai nnakole oni kong'ondela ga Bhakulungwa bhetu, nkali kungolela oni nne ndabhilwe kwa ligongo lyabho. Ikabheje mme pamo na nne mmboteko kwa ligongo lya Ngani ja Mmbone, malinga shinkupegwa mashili na a Nnungu.
9 Who hath delivered us and called us by his holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the times of the world. (aiōnios g166)
Bhene bhatutapwile nikutushema tubhe tubhandu bhabho bha ukonjelo, nngabha kwa ligongo lya itendi yetu, ikabhe kwa ligongo lya pinga kwabho na nema jabho bhayene. Jene nemaji twashinkupegwa nkulundana na a Yeshu Kilishitu kuumila bhukalago. (aiōnios g166)
10 But is now made manifest by the illumination of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath destroyed death, and hath brought to light life and incorruption by the gospel:
Kwa nneyo, jene nemaji nnaino jishiibhulwa bhakayuyweje bhaatapula bhetu a Yeshu Kilishitu. Bhenebho bhashikugapeya mashili ga shiwo, nipeleshela gumi gwa pitipiti kwa Ngani ja Mmbone.
11 Wherein I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and teacher of the Gentiles.
Kwa ligongo lya jene Ngani ja Mmboneji, nne njiagulwa kubha nkulunguya, na ntume na nkujiganya.
12 For which cause I also suffer these things: but I am not ashamed. For I know whom I have believed, and I am certain that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him, against that day.
Kwa ligongo lya genego, nne ngunapotekwa, nkali nneyo ngakola oni, pabha naamanyi bhene bhungwaakulupalila bhala, numbe nimumanyi kuti shibhashibhishile ulinda shene shibhambele shila, mpaka kuishila lyubha lya mpelo.
13 Hold the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me in faith, and in the love which is in Christ Jesus.
Nkamulile ukoto majiganyo ga kweli guninnjigenye gala, na ngulupai na nkupingana kwa nkulundana na a Yeshu Kilishitu.
14 Keep the good thing committed to thy trust by the Holy Ghost, who dwelleth in us.
Kwa Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo atama nkati jetu, nshibhishile ulinda shene shindu sha mmbone shimpegwilwe shila.
15 Thou knowest this, that all they who are in Asia, are turned away from me: of whom are Phigellus and Hermogenes.
Malinga shimmumanyi kuti bhandu bhowe bha ku Ashia, bhaneshilenje, munkumbi gwabhonji bhaapali a Pigelo na a Elimogene.
16 The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus: because he hath often refreshed me, and hath not been ashamed of my chain:
Bhakulungwa bhaabhonelanje shiya bha ulongo bha a Oneshipolashi, pabha bhatendaga ndaga ntima wala bhakakolaga oni ga tabhwa kwangu.
17 But when he was come to Rome, he carefully sought me, and found me.
Ikabhe bhakaisheje ku Loma, gubhatumbile kunoleya, mpaka gubhamweni.
18 The Lord grant unto him to find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou very well knowest.
Bhakulungwa a Yeshu bhaabhonele shiya sha a Nnungu lyene lyubhalyo! Na mmwe mmumanyi indu yaigwinji ibhandendele ku Epesho kula.
