< 2 Timothy 1 >
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,
παυλος αποστολος ιησου χριστου δια θεληματος θεου κατ επαγγελιαν ζωης της εν χριστω ιησου
2 to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
τιμοθεω αγαπητω τεκνω χαρις ελεος ειρηνη απο θεου πατρος και χριστου ιησου του κυριου ημων
3 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, as without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day,
χαριν εχω τω θεω ω λατρευω απο προγονων εν καθαρα συνειδησει ως αδιαλειπτον εχω την περι σου μνειαν εν ταις δεησεσιν μου νυκτος και ημερας
4 longing to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;
επιποθων σε ιδειν μεμνημενος σου των δακρυων ινα χαρας πληρωθω
5 when I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that it dwelleth in thee also.
υπομνησιν λαμβανων της εν σοι ανυποκριτου πιστεως ητις ενωκησεν πρωτον εν τη μαμμη σου λωιδι και τη μητρι σου ευνεικη πεπεισμαι δε οτι και εν σοι
6 For which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the laying on of my hands;
δι ην αιτιαν αναμιμνησκω σε αναζωπυρειν το χαρισμα του θεου ο εστιν εν σοι δια της επιθεσεως των χειρων μου
7 for God gave us not the spirit of cowardice, but of power, and of love, and of admonition.
ου γαρ εδωκεν ημιν ο θεος πνευμα δειλιας αλλα δυναμεως και αγαπης και σωφρονισμου
8 Be not then ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship with me for the gospel through the power of God,
μη ουν επαισχυνθης το μαρτυριον του κυριου ημων μηδε εμε τον δεσμιον αυτου αλλα συγκακοπαθησον τω ευαγγελιω κατα δυναμιν θεου
9 who saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and the grace which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, (aiōnios )
του σωσαντος ημας και καλεσαντος κλησει αγια ου κατα τα εργα ημων αλλα κατ ιδιαν προθεσιν και χαριν την δοθεισαν ημιν εν χριστω ιησου προ χρονων αιωνιων (aiōnios )
10 but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and incorruption to light through the gospel,
φανερωθεισαν δε νυν δια της επιφανειας του σωτηρος ημων ιησου χριστου καταργησαντος μεν τον θανατον φωτισαντος δε ζωην και αφθαρσιαν δια του ευαγγελιου
11 for which I was appointed a herald, and an apostle, and a teacher of the gentiles.
εις ο ετεθην εγω κηρυξ και αποστολος και διδασκαλος εθνων
12 For which cause I suffer also these things. But I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which he hath committed to me unto that day.
δι ην αιτιαν και ταυτα πασχω αλλ ουκ επαισχυνομαι οιδα γαρ ω πεπιστευκα και πεπεισμαι οτι δυνατος εστιν την παραθηκην μου φυλαξαι εις εκεινην την ημεραν
13 Hold the pattern of sound words, which thou heardest from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus;
υποτυπωσιν εχε υγιαινοντων λογων ων παρ εμου ηκουσας εν πιστει και αγαπη τη εν χριστω ιησου
14 the good trust committed to thee keep through the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in us.
την καλην παρακαταθηκην φυλαξον δια πνευματος αγιου του ενοικουντος εν ημιν
15 Thou knowest this, that all those in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
οιδας τουτο οτι απεστραφησαν με παντες οι εν τη ασια ων εστιν φυγελλος και ερμογενης
16 The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain; but on the contrary,
δωη ελεος ο κυριος τω ονησιφορου οικω οτι πολλακις με ανεψυξεν και την αλυσιν μου ουκ επησχυνθη
17 when he arrived at Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
αλλα γενομενος εν ρωμη σπουδαιοτερον εζητησεν με και ευρεν
18 The Lord grant to him that he may find mercy from the Lord in that day: and what services he rendered me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.
δωη αυτω ο κυριος ευρειν ελεος παρα κυριου εν εκεινη τη ημερα και οσα εν εφεσω διηκονησεν βελτιον συ γινωσκεις
