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,
Lokwalo lo lo tswang kwa go: Paulo, mo rongwa wa ga Jesu Keresete, yo o rometsweng ke Modimo go ya go bolelela banna le basadi gongwe le gongwe kaga botshelo jo bo sa khutleng jo o ba bo solofeditseng ka tumelo mo go Jesu Keresete.
2 To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
Lo ya kwa go: Timotheo, morwaake yo o rategang. A Modimo Rara le Keresete Jesu Morena wa rona o go nosetse bopelonomi jwa one, kutlwelo-botlhoko le kagiso.
3 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of you in my prayers night and day;
Ke leboga Modimo jang ka wena, Timotheo. Ke go rapelela malatsi otlhe, le ka nako tsotlhe mo masigong a maleele ke kopa Modimo wa me go go segofatsa mo go menaganyeng. Ke Modimo wa borre, le wa me, mme maikaelelo a me fela mo botshelong ke go o itumedisa.
4 Greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy;
Ke tlhwaafaletse thata go go bona gape. Kana ke ka itumela thatajang, gonne ke gakologelwa selelo sa gago fa re kgaogana.
5 When I call to remembrance the sincere faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in you also.
Ke itse gore o ikanya Morena go le kae, fela jaaka mmago Yunise le mmago-mogolo Loise ba mo ikanya; ebile ke tlhomamisa gore o santse o mo ikanya thata fela jaaka gale.
6 Wherefore I put you in remembrance that you stir up the gift of God, which is in you by the putting on of my hands.
Ka ntlha ya moo, ke batla go go gakolola gore o tlhotlheletse nonofo le bopelokgale jo bo mo teng ga gago, jo bo tsenyeng mo go wena ka nako e ke neng ke go baya diatla ka yone ke go segofatsa.
7 For God has not given us the spirit (pneuma) of fear; but of power, and of love, (agape) and of a sound mind.
Gonne Mowa O O Boitshepo, neo ya Modimo, ga o rate gore wena o tshabe batho, mme e leng go nna botlhale le nonofo, le go ba rata le go itumelela go nna le bone.
8 Be not you therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be you partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;
Fa o ka tlhotlheletsa nonofo e e mo teng ga gago ga o kitla o boifa go bolelela ba bangwe ka Morena, wa rona, Kgotsa go ba itsise gore ke tsala ya gago le fa ke le mo kgolegelong fano ka ntlha ya ga Keresete. O tlaa ipaakanyetsa go boga le nna ka ntlha ya Morena, gonne o tlaa go nonotsha mo dipogisong.
9 Who has saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, (aiōnios g166)
Ke ene yo o re bolokileng le yo o re tlhophetseng tiro ya gagwe e e boitshepo, e seng ka ntlha ya gore e re tshwanetse mme e le ka ntlha ya gore e ne e le leano la One la bogologolo pele ga lefatshe le simologa, go supa lorato lwa One mo go rona le bopelotlhomogi ka Jesu Keresete. (aiōnios g166)
10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:
Mme jaanong o dirile mo gotlhe gore go bonale mo go rona sentle ka go tla ga Mmoloki wa rona Jesu Keresete, yo o robileng nonofo ya loso a bo a re bontsha tsela ya botshelo jo bo safeleng ka go mo ikanya.
11 Unto which I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
Mme Modimo o ntlhophile go nna morongwa wa one, go rerela Badichaba le go ba ruta.
12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.
Ke ka moo ke bogang fano mo kgolegelong ebile ga go ntlhabise ditlhong, gonne ke itse yo ke mo ikanyang, ebile ke tlhomamisa gore o nonofile go tlhokomela tsotlhe tse ke di mo neileng go fitlhelela letsatsi la go bowa ga gagwe.
13 Hold fast the form of sound words, (logos) which you have heard of me, in faith and love (agape) which is in Christ Jesus.
Tshegetsa thata sekao sa boammaaruri jo ke go bo rutileng, segolo thata jang tumelo le lorato lo Keresete Jesu a lo go neileng.
14 That good thing which was committed unto you keep by the Holy Spirit (pneuma) which dwells in us.
Tlhokomela thata, nonofo e o e amogetseng mo Modimong e le mpho e e tswang mo Moweng o o Boitshepo o o nnang mo teng ga gago.
15 This you know, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
Jaaka o itse, Bakeresete botlhe ba ba tsileng mono ba tswa kwa Asia ba mphatlalaletse; le e leng Fugalo le Hegemogenese tota ba tsamaile.
16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
A Morena a segofatse Onisiforo le botlhe ba ntlo ya gagwe, ka gore o ne a nketela a bo a nkgothatsa gantsi. Go nketela ga gagwe go ne ga ntsoseletsa jaaka mowa wa phefo e e monate, ebile go nna ga me mo kgolegelong ga go ise go mo tlhabise ditlhong.
17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
Le gone erile a tla mo Roma o mpatlile gongwe le gongwe, a leka go bona kwa ke teng, mme la bofelo a mpona.
18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, you know very well.
A Modimo o mo nee lesego le le faphegileng motlhang Keresete a bowang. Ebile o itse botoka go na le jaaka ke ka go bolelela ka fa o nthusitseng ka teng kwa Efeso.
