< 2 Thessalonians 1 >
1 To the Thessalonian church in union with God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, From Paul, Silas, and Timothy.
Nĩ ithuĩ Paũlũ, na Sila, na Timotheo, Twandĩkĩra kanitha wa Athesalonike marũa maya ũrĩa ũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Ngai Ithe witũ, o na thĩinĩ wa Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ:
2 May God, the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.
Wega na thayũ irogĩa na inyuĩ ciumĩte kũrĩ Ngai Ithe witũ, o na Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ.
3 Friends, it is our duty always to thank God about you, as is but right, considering the wonderful growth of your faith, and because, without exception, your love for one another is continually increasing.
Nĩtwagĩrĩirwo nĩgũcookagĩria Ngai ngaatho hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ ũndũ wanyu, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, tondũ ũguo nĩguo kwagĩrĩire, tondũ wĩtĩkio wanyu nĩũrakũra mũno makĩria, o naguo wendani ũrĩa o mũndũ arĩ naguo harĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ ũkaingĩha.
4 So much is this the case that we ourselves speak with pride, before the churches of God, of the patience and faith which you have shown, in spite of all the persecutions and troubles that you are enduring.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, nĩtwĩrahaga tũrĩ thĩinĩ wa makanitha ma Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa gũkirĩrĩria kwanyu, na gwĩtĩkia kwanyu mĩnyamaro-inĩ yothe na magerio marĩa mũkiragĩrĩria.
5 These persecutions will vindicate the justice of God’s judgment, and will result in your being reckoned worthy of God’s kingdom, for the sake of which you are now suffering;
Maũndũ macio mothe nĩmonanagia atĩ itua rĩa Ngai rĩa ciira nĩ rĩa kĩhooto, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtuuo aagĩrĩru a gũtoonya ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai, o ũcio mũnyariiragwo nĩ ũndũ waguo.
6 since God deems it just to inflict suffering on those who are now inflicting suffering on you,
Ngai nĩ wa kĩhooto: We nĩakarĩha arĩa mamũthĩĩnagia na thĩĩna,
7 and to give relief to you who are suffering, as well as to us, at the appearing of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels, in flaming fire.
no inyuĩ arĩa mũtũire mũthĩĩnagio amũhe kĩhurũko, o hamwe na ithuĩ. Ũndũ ũcio nĩũkahinga hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mwathani Jesũ akaaguũranĩrio oimĩte igũrũ arĩ thĩinĩ wa mwaki ũgwakana, hamwe na araika ake arĩa marĩ hinya.
8 Then he will inflict punishment on those who refuse to know God, and on those who turn a deaf ear to the good news of Jesus, our Lord.
Nake nĩakaherithia andũ arĩa matooĩ Ngai na matathĩkagĩra Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa Mwathani witũ Jesũ.
9 They will pay the penalty of unutterable ruin – banished from the presence of the Lord and from the glorious manifestation of his might, (aiōnios )
Nao nĩmakaherithio na kwanangwo kũrĩa gũtagathira, na mahingĩrĩrio nja matikoone ũthiũ wa Mwathani, o na ũnene wa hinya wake, (aiōnios )
10 when he comes to be honored in his people, and to be revered in all who have learned to believe in him (for you also believed our testimony) – as he will be on that day.
mũthenya ũrĩa agooka nĩguo atũũgĩrio thĩinĩ wa andũ ake arĩa atheru, o na andũ othe arĩa mamwĩtĩkĩtie magege nĩ ũndũ wake. O na inyuĩ mũgaakorwo mũrĩ amwe ao tondũ nĩmwetĩkirie ũira witũ ũrĩa twamũheire.
11 With this in view, our constant prayer for you is that our God may count you worthy of the call that you have received, and by his power make perfect your delight in all goodness and the efforts that have resulted from your faith.
Ũndũ ũcio nĩguo ũtũmaga tũmũhooyagĩre tũtegũtigithĩria, atĩ Ngai witũ amũtue andũ maaganĩrĩire na gwĩtwo kwanyu, ningĩ nĩ ũndũ wa hinya wake amũhingagĩrie matanya manyu mothe marĩa mega, o na wĩra o wothe ũrĩa uumanĩte na wĩtĩkio wanyu.
12 Then, in the loving kindness of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ, will the name of Jesus, our Lord, be honored in you, and you in him.
Tũhooyaga ũguo nĩgeetha rĩĩtwa rĩa Mwathani witũ Jesũ rĩtũũgagĩrio thĩinĩ wanyu, o na inyuĩ mũtũũgagĩrio thĩinĩ wake, kũringana na wega wa Ngai witũ na wa Mwathani Jesũ Kristũ.
