< 2 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, according to 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, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
kuna Timotio mwana wangu unodikanwa: Nyasha, tsitsi, nerugare zvinobva kuna Mwari Baba naKristu Jesu Ishe wedu.
3 I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day
Ndinovonga Mwari, wandinoshumira kubva kumadziteteguru muhana yakachena, kuti ndisingamiri ndinokurangarira paminyengetero yangu siku nesikati,
4 longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be filled with joy;
ndichishuva kukuona, ndichirangarira misodzi yako, kuti ndizadzwe nemufaro,
5 having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you; which lived first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice, and, I am persuaded, 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 cause, I remind you that you should stir up the 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 did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and of a sound mind.
Nokuti Mwari haana kutipa mweya wekutya asi wesimba, newerudo, newekuzvidzora.
8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,
Naizvozvo usanyadziswa neuchapupu hwaIshe wedu, kana hwangu musungwa wake; asi utambudzikire evhangeri pamwe neni zvichienderana nesimba raMwari,
9 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, (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 but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the Good News.
asi ikozvino kunoratidzwa nekuonekwa kweMuponesi wedu Jesu Kristu, wakaparadza rufu, akabudisa pachena upenyu nekusafa kubudikidza neevhangeri,
11 For this, I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher.
yandakagadzirwa ini kuva muparidzi, nemuapositori, nemudzidzisi wevahedheni.
12 For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that 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 the pattern of sound words which 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 That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
Icho chinhu chakanaka chakaiswa mumaoko mako chengeta neMweya Mutsvene anogara matiri.
15 This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me; of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
Unozviziva izvi, kuti vese vari paAsia vakandifuratira; pakati pavo pana Figero naHemogene.
16 May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often 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 was in Rome, he sought me diligently, and found me
asi asvika Roma, wakanditsvakisisa, akandiwana.
18 (the Lord grant to him to find the Lord's mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.
Ishe ngaamuitire kuti awane tsitsi kuna Ishe nezuva iro; uye muzvinhu zvingani zvaakandibatira paEfeso, iwe unozivisisa.
