2 Timothy 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, according to a promise of life that [is] in Christ Jesus,

Nene Pauli, ndi Chapanga aganili nivya na mtumi wa Kilisitu Yesu anitumili muni ndi niukokosa wumi wula weatilagazili mukuwungana na Kilisitu Yesu,

2 to Timotheus, beloved child: Grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord!

nikuyandikila veve Timoti mwana vangu mwenikuganili. Nikuvaganila ubwina wa Chapanga na lipyana na sadika kuhuma kwa Chapanga Dadi na Kilisitu Yesu Bambu witu.

3 I am thankful to God, whom I serve from progenitors in a pure conscience, that I unceasingly have remembrance concerning you in my supplications night and day,

Nikumsengusa Chapanga mwanikumhengela kwa mtima weukulangisa kuvya uvi lepi na kubuda ngati chevakitili vagogo vangu, Nisengusa kila penikumbuka mukuyupa kwangu Chapanga kilu na muhi.

4 desiring to see you greatly, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy,

Nikumbuka maholi gaku na ninogela neju kukulola, muni nimemeswa luheku.

5 taking remembrance of the unhypocritical faith that is in you, that first dwelt in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that also in you.

Niyimanyili sadika yako ya chakaka, sadika yaavili nayu chitengula chaku Loisi, na nyina waku Eunike. Nivi na uchakaka kuna na veve uvili nayu.

6 For which cause I remind you to stir up the gift of God that is in you through the putting on of my hands,

Ndi mana nikukumbusa uikohakesa njombi ya Chapanga yewapewili panakuvikili mawoko gangu.

7 for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind;

Muni mpungu wetipewili na Chapanga lepi ndava ya kutikita tivya na wogoyi, lepi, ndi Mpungu waki weukutipela makakala na uganu na kujilongosa mwene.

8 therefore you may not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but you suffer evil along with the good news according to the power of God,

Hinu, kotoka kuvya na soni kujova ndava ya Bambu witu, amala kotoka kuniwonela soni nene namfungwa ndava yaki. Nambu uvyai mu mang'ahiso ndava ya Lilovi la Bwina, na ndava ya makakala gewipewa na Chapanga.

9 who saved us, and called with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, that was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the times of the ages, (aiōnios g166)

Mwene atisangwili na kutikemela tivya tavandu vaki mwene, lepi ndava ya matendu gitu, ndi muni ndava ya mota yaki. Tapewili ngati cheigana mwene na kwa ubwina waki wa Yesu Kilisitu kwakona lukumbi, (aiōnios g166)

10 and was made visible now through the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who indeed abolished death, and enlightened life and immortality through the good news,

nambu hinu ubwina wa Chapanga ugubukuliwi kubwela kwaki msangula witu Kilisitu Yesu. Adivalili makakala ga lifwa, na kwa njila ya Lilovi la Bwina na akamanyisa wumi wangali lifwa.

11 to which I was placed a preacher and an apostle, and a teacher of nations,

Chapanga anihagwili nivyai namtumi na muwula wa kuvakokosela vandu Lilovi la Bwina,

12 for which cause these things I also suffer, but I am not ashamed, for I have known in whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that He is able to guard that which I have committed to Him—to that day.

na ndava ya mambu genago naviniswi neju. Nambu nakona nikangamala ndava muni nimmanyili yula mwanimsadika, nivi na uchakaka yati akuchiyangalila mbaka ligono lila leiwuya Kilisitu.

13 Hold the pattern of sound words, which you heard from me, in faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus;

Kamula kwa uchakaka mawuliwu gala genakuwulili na kusindimala musadika na uganu witu uwo muwungana na Kilisitu Yesu.

14 guard the good thing committed through the Holy Spirit that is dwelling in us;

Kwa makakala ga Mpungu Msopi mweitama mumitima yitu, kamula mambu goha gabwina ganakugotolili.

15 you have known this, that they turned from me—all those in Asia, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes;

Umanyili kuvya vandu voha va ku Asia vanilekili, pagati yavi ndi Fugelo na Helimogene.

16 may the LORD give kindness to the house of Onesiphorus, because he refreshed me many times, and was not ashamed of my chain,

Bambu uvahengela lipyana vandu va kaya ya Onesifolo, muni anikangamalisi mtima vamahele panavili mchifungu ndi akolili lepi soni,

17 but being in Rome, he sought me very diligently and found [me];

nambu pahikili ndu ku Loma atumbwili kunilonda mbaka peaniweni.

18 may the LORD give to him to find kindness from the LORD in that day; and you very well know how much he ministered in Ephesus.

Bambu amuhengela lipyana la Chapanga ligono ilo la kuhamuliwa! Na veve umanyili bwina gamahele geakitili ku Efeso.
