2 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus,
Jesu Khrih awh ak awm awitaak naak amyihna, Khawsak kawngaihnaak amyihna Jesu Khrih a ceityih na ak awm, Paul ing,
2 to dear son Timothy: Grace, mercy, peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Ka lungnaak ka capa Timote a venawh: Pa Khawsa ingkaw ningnih a Bawipa Jesu Khrih a ven awhkaw am qeennaak, thintlawhnaak ingkaw ngaihdingnaak awm seh.
3 I give thanks to God, whom I serve with a clear conscience like my forefathers did, as I constantly remember you in my prayers, night and day,
Pakdamkhqi amyihna a bi ka bi peek Khawsa venawh, kawlung caihnaak ing zeel nyng saw than ingkaw dai nangmih aham cykcah poepa nyng.
4 longing to see you (recalling your tears), that I may be filled with joy;
Nang amik phli tuikhqi ce poek nyng, zeelnaak ing ka be thainaak aham, nang a myi ce huh aham ngaih nyng.
5 while I call to mind the unfeigned faith that is in you—it resided first in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, in you also.
Na nukdam Loisi ingkaw na nu Euniki awh ak awm ma cangnaak ce, nang awh awm hy tice sim tlaih nyng, tuh awhtaw cawhkaw cangnaak ce nang awh awm awm hy.
6 For this reason I am reminding you to rekindle the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
Cedawngawh Khawsa kutdo peek, nak khanawh kut ka thoeng law awhkaw mai kqawng ce a caknaak aham na zah aham kqawn law nyng.
7 Because God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but of power and of love and of self-control.
Ikawtih Khawsa ing kqihnaak myihla ce amni pe nawh, thaawmnaak, lungnaak ingkaw yhthainaak myihla ni ani peek hy.
8 So do not be ashamed to identify with our Lord or with me His prisoner, but join in suffering for the Gospel according to the power of God
Cedawngawh ni Bawipa akawng kqawn aham koeh chak, thawng ak tla kai akawng awh awm koeh chak. Cehlai awithang leek awh kyinaak ka huhnaak ve ning yh pyi lawt lah, Khawsa ak thaawmnaak ak caming,
9 —the One who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not because of our works but because of His own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, (aiōnios g166)
anih ing ningnih ce ni thaawng khqi nawh hqing ciimnaak ing hqing aham nik khy hy – ik-oeih pynoet oet ni sai peek awh am nawh amah ang cainaak ingkaw am qeennaak camawh ni. Vawhkaw am qeennaak vetaw a tym ak kqan hlan awhkawng ningnih a venawh Jesu Khrih awh ni pek khqi hawh hy. (aiōnios g166)
10 but has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Jesus Christ, who by means of the Gospel destroyed the death and brought life and immortality to light;
Tuhawhtaw thihnaak ce noeng nawh awithang leek ak caming hqingnaak ingkaw kumqui vangnaak ak khuina anik sawikung ningnih a hulkung, Jesu Khrih ak caming dang hawh hy.
11 to this Gospel I was appointed as a proclaimer, an apostle and a teacher of nations.
Ve awithang leek ve khypyi aham ceityih ingkaw cawngpyi kungna awm aham kai ve ni caksak hy.
12 That is why I am suffering these things, yet I am not ashamed because I know in whom I have believed and am certain that He is able to guard my deposit until that Day.
Cedawngawh khuikha hu nyng. Cehlai kai ing kak cangnaak thlang ce a u nu, tice ka sim dawngawh ap chak nyng, ce a khawnghi aham kai ing ka khoem sak ce ak nep cana khoem law kaw, tice sim nyng.
13 Hold fast the standard of sound teaching that you heard from me, through the faith and love in Christ Jesus.
Kai a ven awhkaw naming zaak ce, Jesu Khrih awh cangnaak lungnaak ingkaw cawngpyinaak ak thym toek hly kawi na ta law uh.
14 Guard the good deposit by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
Nangmih a venawh ik-oeih leek khoem sak na ak awm ce ak leek na qeet na uh – ningnih ak khui awhkaw ak awm Ciim Myihla bawmnaak ak caming ak leek na qeet na uh.
15 This you know, that all those in Asia have been turned away from me, including Phygellus and Hermogenes.
Asia qam awh ak awm thlangkhqi ing ni cehtaak hawh uhy tice sim uhyk ti, Phygelus ingkaw Hermogenes ingawm ni cehta lawt hy nih.
16 May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chain;
Bawipa ing Onesiphora ipkhui kaw ak khanawh am qeennaak dang sak seh, kawtih anih ing ni caih sak pang nawh thiqui khihna ka awmnaak awh awm ap chak hy.
17 rather, when he arrived in Rome he searched diligently for me until he found me
Rom khaw awh a awm awh kai a mani huh hlan dy awh ni sui khing hy.
18 (may the Lord grant to him to find mercy from the Lord in that Day); you also know very well in how many ways he served in Ephesus.
Ce a khawnghi awh Bawipa a ven awhkaw qeennaak a huhnaak aham Bawipa ing qeen seh! Ephesa khaw awh ikawmyih dyna kai ani bawm ani ceem tice nang ingawm sim hyk ti.
