2 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, through the will of God, —according to the promise of life in Christ Jesus; —
Nene Pauli, ndi Chapanga aganili nivya na mtumi wa Kilisitu Yesu anitumili muni ndi niukokosa wumi wula weatilagazili mukuwungana na Kilisitu Yesu,
2 Unto Timothy, my beloved child: Favour, mercy, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.
nikuyandikila veve Timoti mwana vangu mwenikuganili. Nikuvaganila ubwina wa Chapanga na lipyana na sadika kuhuma kwa Chapanga Dadi na Kilisitu Yesu Bambu witu.
3 Grateful, am I, unto God, —unto whom I am rendering divine service from my progenitors in a pure conscience, that, incessant, hold I the remembrance, concerning thee, in my supplications; day and night,
Nikumsengusa Chapanga mwanikumhengela kwa mtima weukulangisa kuvya uvi lepi na kubuda ngati chevakitili vagogo vangu, Nisengusa kila penikumbuka mukuyupa kwangu Chapanga kilu na muhi.
4 longing to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, —in order that, with joy, I may be filled:
Nikumbuka maholi gaku na ninogela neju kukulola, muni nimemeswa luheku.
5 A reminder, having received, of the unfeigned faith, that is in thee, —such, as dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice, —I am persuaded, moreover, that [it dwelleth], in thee also.
Niyimanyili sadika yako ya chakaka, sadika yaavili nayu chitengula chaku Loisi, na nyina waku Eunike. Nivi na uchakaka kuna na veve uvili nayu.
6 For which cause, I put thee in remembrance, to be stirring up God’s gift of favour, which is in thee through means of the laying on of my hands;
Ndi mana nikukumbusa uikohakesa njombi ya Chapanga yewapewili panakuvikili mawoko gangu.
7 For God hath not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power, and love, and correction.
Muni mpungu wetipewili na Chapanga lepi ndava ya kutikita tivya na wogoyi, lepi, ndi Mpungu waki weukutipela makakala na uganu na kujilongosa mwene.
8 Be not thou, therefore, put to shame—with regard to the witness of our Lord, nor with regard to me his prisoner; but suffer hardship together with the glad-message according to the power of God, —
Hinu, kotoka kuvya na soni kujova ndava ya Bambu witu, amala kotoka kuniwonela soni nene namfungwa ndava yaki. Nambu uvyai mu mang'ahiso ndava ya Lilovi la Bwina, na ndava ya makakala gewipewa na Chapanga.
9 Who hath saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to the peculiar purpose and favour—which was given to us in Christ Jesus before age-during times, (aiōnios g166)
Mwene atisangwili na kutikemela tivya tavandu vaki mwene, lepi ndava ya matendu gitu, ndi muni ndava ya mota yaki. Tapewili ngati cheigana mwene na kwa ubwina waki wa Yesu Kilisitu kwakona lukumbi, (aiōnios g166)
10 But hath now been made manifest through means of the forthshining of our Saviour Christ Jesus, —Who, indeed, hath abolished death, and hath thrown light upon life and incorruptibility, through means of the glad-message:
nambu hinu ubwina wa Chapanga ugubukuliwi kubwela kwaki msangula witu Kilisitu Yesu. Adivalili makakala ga lifwa, na kwa njila ya Lilovi la Bwina na akamanyisa wumi wangali lifwa.
11 Whereunto, I, have been appointed herald and apostle and teacher;
Chapanga anihagwili nivyai namtumi na muwula wa kuvakokosela vandu Lilovi la Bwina,
12 For which cause, these things also, am I suffering; nevertheless I am not being put to shame, for I know him whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is, able, to guard, that which I have entrusted, [to him] unto, that, day.
na ndava ya mambu genago naviniswi neju. Nambu nakona nikangamala ndava muni nimmanyili yula mwanimsadika, nivi na uchakaka yati akuchiyangalila mbaka ligono lila leiwuya Kilisitu.
13 An outline, have thou, of healthful discourses which from me thou hast heard—with the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus:
Kamula kwa uchakaka mawuliwu gala genakuwulili na kusindimala musadika na uganu witu uwo muwungana na Kilisitu Yesu.
14 The noble thing entrusted [to thee], do thou guard, through means of the Holy Spirit which dwelleth within us.
Kwa makakala ga Mpungu Msopi mweitama mumitima yitu, kamula mambu goha gabwina ganakugotolili.
15 Thou knowest this—that all they who are in Asia have turned away from me, —of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
Umanyili kuvya vandu voha va ku Asia vanilekili, pagati yavi ndi Fugelo na Helimogene.
16 The Lord grant mercy unto the house, of Onesiphorus, in that, ofttimes, hath he refreshed me, and, as regardeth my chain, hath not been put to shame,
Bambu uvahengela lipyana vandu va kaya ya Onesifolo, muni anikangamalisi mtima vamahele panavili mchifungu ndi akolili lepi soni,
17 But, happening to be in Rome, he diligently sought out and found me, —
nambu pahikili ndu ku Loma atumbwili kunilonda mbaka peaniweni.
18 The Lord grant him to find mercy from [the] Lord in, that, day; —and, how many times, in Ephesus, he hath ministered, better art, thou, getting to know.
Bambu amuhengela lipyana la Chapanga ligono ilo la kuhamuliwa! Na veve umanyili bwina gamahele geakitili ku Efeso.
