< 2 Timothy 1 >
1 From Paul who, by the will of God, is an apostle of Christ Jesus, charged to proclaim the life that comes from union with Christ Jesus,
Ri Pablo, taqoꞌn rech ri Cristo Jesús rumal ri rayibꞌal ukꞌuꞌx ri Dios, rumal ri kꞌaslemal ri chiꞌtal loq, ri yaꞌtal chaqe pa Cristo Jesús,
2 to Timothy, my dear child: may God, the Father, and Christ Jesus, our Lord, bless you, and be merciful to you, and give you peace.
che ri loqꞌalaj nukꞌojol Timoteo: Are ri Tataxel Dios xuqujeꞌ ri Cristo Jesús ri Ajawxel cheyoꞌw toqꞌobꞌ, toqꞌobꞌisan wach, xuqujeꞌ jaꞌmaril chawe.
3 I am thankful to God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, when I remember you, as I never fail to do, in my prayers – night and day alike,
Are katnaꞌtaj chwe chi paqꞌij chi chaqꞌabꞌ pa ri nuchꞌawem, kintyoxin che ri Dios, ri kinpatanij rukꞌ chꞌajchꞌoj laj chomabꞌal jacha ri xkibꞌan ri watiꞌt numam ojer.
4 as I think of your tears, longing to see you, that my happiness may be completed,
Xuqujeꞌ are kanaꞌtaj ri uwaꞌl awach chwe, are xinel loq, kawaj katinwil chi junmul, rech kinnoj che kiꞌkotemal.
5 now that I have been reminded of the sincere faith that you have shown. That faith was seen first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and is now, I am convinced, in you also.
Xuqujeꞌ kanaꞌtaj chwe ri akojobꞌal ri qas ko kꞌolik, ri xutaqchiꞌj nabꞌe ri awatiꞌt Loida xuqujeꞌ ri anan Eunice, chanim kꞌut tajin katutaqchiꞌj at. Qas wetaꞌm chi jewaꞌ tajin kakꞌulmatajik.
6 And that is my reason for reminding you to stir into flame that gift of God, which is yours through your ordination at my hands.
Rumal waꞌ kawaj chi kakꞌasbꞌaꞌ ri usipanik ri Dios, ri xakꞌamawaꞌj are xinya ri nuqꞌabꞌ pa awiꞌ.
7 For the Spirit which God gave us was not a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power, love, and self-control.
Rumal cher ri Dios man xuya taj jun uxlabꞌal rech xibꞌin ibꞌ chaqe, xane jun rech kwinem, loqꞌanik, xuqujeꞌ uj kujchoman ri kaqabꞌano.
8 Do not, therefore, be ashamed of the testimony which we have to bear to our Lord, or of me imprisoned for his sake; but join with me in suffering for the good news, as far as God enables you.
Xaq jeriꞌ man kakꞌixibꞌej ta uqꞌalajisaxik ri Ajawxel, xuqujeꞌ man kakꞌixibꞌej ta nubꞌixik in, rumal xa rumal rech ri Cristo in tzꞌapital pa cheꞌ. Je xuqujeꞌ ri at, rajawaxik rukꞌ ri ukwinem ri Dios, kakochꞌ ri kꞌaxkꞌolal rumal ri utz laj tzij.
9 It was God who saved us, and from him we received our solemn call – not as a reward for anything that we had done, but in fulfillment of his own loving purpose. For that love was extended to us, through Christ Jesus, before time began, (aiōnios )
Rumal cher ri Dios xujukolo xuqujeꞌ xuya sikꞌinik chaqe pa ri jun tyoxalaj kꞌaslemal, man xa ta rumal ri qachak, xane rumal ri utoqꞌobꞌ xuqujeꞌ ri uchaꞌnik loq. Xuya loq we toqꞌobꞌ chaqe pa Cristo Jesús, are majaꞌ kamajitaj loq ri qꞌotaj. (aiōnios )
10 and has now been made apparent through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus; who has made an end of death, and has brought life and immortality to light by that good news,
Kamik kꞌut xuqꞌalajisaj rukꞌ ri upetibꞌal ri qakolonel Cristo Jesús, ri xutukij ri kamikal xuqujeꞌ xukꞌam la pa ri tunal, ri kꞌaslemal ri man sachel ta uwach, rumal ri utz laj tzij.
11 of which I was myself appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher.
In xinux taqoꞌn, ajtij, xuqujeꞌ tzijol rech we tzij riꞌ.
12 That is why I am undergoing these sufferings; yet I feel no shame, for I know in whom I have put my faith, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.
Rumal waꞌ kinriq kꞌax. Man kinkꞌix ta kꞌut rumal cher wetaꞌm jachin che in kojoninaq wi, xuqujeꞌ kuꞌl na kꞌuꞌx chi kꞌo ukwinem chinuyakik pa ri kꞌisbꞌal qꞌij, ri wayeꞌm.
13 Keep before you, as an example of sound teaching, all that you learnt from me as you listened with that faith and love which come from union with Christ Jesus.
Chatereneꞌj ri kꞌutuꞌn ri xawetaꞌmaj wukꞌ, rukꞌ kojobꞌal xuqujeꞌ loqꞌanik pa Cristo Jesús.
14 Guard by the help of the Holy Spirit, who is within us, the glorious trust that has been committed to you.
Chachajij ri jeꞌl laj kꞌutuꞌn rukꞌ ri ukwinem ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel, ri kꞌo pa qanimaꞌ.
15 You know, of course, that all our friends in Roman Asia turned their backs on me, including Phygellus and Hermogenes.
Awetaꞌm chi konojel ri keꞌl pa taq ri tinimit rech Asia xinkitzaq kanoq, e kachiꞌl ri Figelo xuqujeꞌ ri Hermógenes.
16 May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus; for he often cheered me and was not ashamed of my chains.
Are bꞌa ri Dios toqꞌobꞌisan kiwach ri winaq ri e kꞌo pa rachoch ri Onesíforo, rumal kꞌi mul, xinkitaqchiꞌj, man xekꞌix ta chwe, pune in kꞌo pa cheꞌ.
17 On the contrary, when he arrived in Rome, he sought eagerly for me until he found me.
Xuqujeꞌ are xopan pa ri tinimit Roma, xinutzukuj kꞌa xinuriq na.
18 The Lord grant that he may find mercy at the hands of the Lord on that day. The many services that he rendered at Ephesus you have the best means of knowing.
Are bꞌa ri Ajawxel chutoqꞌobisaj kiwach pa ri qꞌij rech chilaꞌ chikaj. Awetaꞌm ronojel ri patanijik ri xubꞌan wukꞌ pa ri tinimit Éfeso.
