2 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, by the will of God, sent forth to proclaim the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus.
Pauro, muapositori waJesu Kristu kubudikidza nechido chaMwari, zvichienderana nechivimbiso cheupenyu huri muna Kristu Jesu,
2 To Timothy, my beloved child; Grace mercy, and peace to you from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
kuna Timotio mwana wangu unodikanwa: Nyasha, tsitsi, nerugare zvinobva kuna Mwari Baba naKristu Jesu Ishe wedu.
3 I give thanks to God whom I worship with a pure conscience as my fathers did, when I remember you unceasingly in my prayers.
Ndinovonga Mwari, wandinoshumira kubva kumadziteteguru muhana yakachena, kuti ndisingamiri ndinokurangarira paminyengetero yangu siku nesikati,
4 Night and day when I recall your tears I am longing to see you, that my happiness may be complete.
ndichishuva kukuona, ndichirangarira misodzi yako, kuti ndizadzwe nemufaro,
5 I have been reminded of that sincere faith which is in your heart; which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and, I am fully persuaded, dwells in you also.
ndichiisa mumurangariro rutendo rusinganyepedzeri rwuri mauri, rwaimbogara muna mbuya vako Roisi namai vako Yunisi, uye ndinovimba kuti rwuri mauriwo.
6 For this reason let me remind you to keep ever blazing that gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
Nemhaka yeizvi ndinokuyeudzira kuti ukutidzire chipo chaMwari, chiri mauri nekuiswa kwemaoko angu.
7 For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power and of love and of self-control.
Nokuti Mwari haana kutipa mweya wekutya asi wesimba, newerudo, newekuzvidzora.
8 Do not then be ashamed to bear witness for our Lord, nor for me, his prisoner. Nay, join with me in suffering for the gospel by the power of God.
Naizvozvo usanyadziswa neuchapupu hwaIshe wedu, kana hwangu musungwa wake; asi utambudzikire evhangeri pamwe neni zvichienderana nesimba raMwari,
9 He has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not dealing with us according to our works, but according to his purpose and grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time. (aiōnios g166)
wakatiponesa, akatidana nekudana kutsvene, kwete zvichienderana nemabasa edu, asi zvichienderana nezano rake pachake, nenyasha dzakapiwa kwatiri muna Kristu Jesu nhambo dzenguva dzisati dzavapo, (aiōnios g166)
10 This has now been made manifest through the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who has put an end to death, and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
asi ikozvino kunoratidzwa nekuonekwa kweMuponesi wedu Jesu Kristu, wakaparadza rufu, akabudisa pachena upenyu nekusafa kubudikidza neevhangeri,
11 Of the gospel I was appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher; and that is the reason I am now undergoing these sufferings.
yandakagadzirwa ini kuva muparidzi, nemuapositori, nemudzidzisi wevahedheni.
12 But I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have fully believed, and I am thoroughly persuaded that he is able to keep what I have given him until the Day.
Nemhaka yeizvi neni ndinotambudzika zvinhu izvi, zvakadaro handinyadziswi, nokuti ndinoziva wandakatenda, uye ndine chokwadi kuti anogona kuchengeta chandakaisa muruoko kusvikira zuva iroro.
13 Hold fast the pattern of sound teaching you have heard from me in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
Batisisa muenzaniso wemashoko mapenyu awakanzwa kwandiri murutendo nerudo rwuri muna Kristu Jesu.
14 Guard the glorious trust which has been committed to you by the aid of the Holy Spirit who makes his home in us.
Icho chinhu chakanaka chakaiswa mumaoko mako chengeta neMweya Mutsvene anogara matiri.
15 You already know that all the Christians in Roman Asia forsook me, among them Phygellus and Hermogenes.
Unozviziva izvi, kuti vese vari paAsia vakandifuratira; pakati pavo pana Figero naHemogene.
16 The Lord show mercy to the house hold of Onesiphorus; for many a time he refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain.
Ishe ngaape tsitsi kuimba yaOnesiforo; nokuti kazhinji wakandivandudza, uye haana kunyadziswa neketani yangu,
17 But when he came to Rome he sought for me until he found me.
asi asvika Roma, wakanditsvakisisa, akandiwana.
18 The Lord grant him to find mercy form the Lord in that Day! And you know better than I how many services he rendered in Ephesus.
Ishe ngaamuitire kuti awane tsitsi kuna Ishe nezuva iro; uye muzvinhu zvingani zvaakandibatira paEfeso, iwe unozivisisa.
