< 2 Timothy 1 >

1 [I], Paul, [am writing this letter. I am] an apostle whom Christ Jesus chose so that I would do what God wanted. He chose me [to tell people that God] has promised [that they will] live [eternally] as a result of their having a close relationship with Christ Jesus.
Gikan kang Pablo, nga apostol ni Cristo Jesus pinaagi sa kabubut-on sa Dios, sumala sa saad sa kinabuhi nga anaa kang Cristo Jesus,
2 [I am writing to you], Timothy, whom I love [as if you were] my own son. [I pray that] God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord will [continue to act] kindly to you, be merciful to you, and [cause you to have] inner peace,
alang kang Timoteo, nga gihigugmang anak: Grasya, kalooy, ug kalinaw gikan sa Dios Amahan ug kang Cristo Jesus nga atong Ginoo.
3 I thank God [for all that he has done for you]. I serve him, and my ancestors [served him, too. I serve him] in a manner that I know to be right. [I thank him] while repeatedly I [pray for you] at night and during the day.
Nagpasalamat ako sa Dios nga gialagaran nako gikan sa akong mga katigulangan sa putli nga konsensiya, samtang kanunay ako gahinumdom kanimo sa akong mga pag-ampo, gabii ug adlaw
4 [While I am thanking God for you], I very much want to see you because I remember how you cried [MTY] [when we separated. I want to see you] in order that I may be (filled with joy/very happy).
nangandoy nga makakita kanimo, gahinumdom sa imong mga luha, aron mapuno ako sa kalipay;
5 [I thank God because] I remember that you sincerely believe [in Christ Jesus]. First, your grandmother, Lois, and your mother, Eunice, [believed in him and], I am (convinced/very sure) that you also believe in him.
sa dihang nahinumduman nako ang imong pagtuo nga tinuod; nga diha una sa imong lola nga si Lois, ug sa imong inahan nga si Eunice, ug diin kombinsido ako nga anaa sad kanimo.
6 Because [I am sure that you believe in him], I remind you to do fervently/wholeheartedly [MET] what God has (assigned for/appointed) you to do and what he has enabled you to do. [God] ([assigned for/appointed]) you to do it as a result of my putting my hands [on you to show/indicate that he had chosen you to do his work].
Mao kini ang hinungdan nga ako kang pahinumduman nga pagpainiton nimo ang gasa sa Dios nga anaa kanimo pinaagi sa pagpandung nako sa akong mga kamot kanimo.
7 Remember that God has put [his Spirit] within us. [His Spirit does not cause us to be] afraid. Instead, [he causes us to be] powerful [to work for God], and he helps us to love [others] and [to] control what we say and do.
Kay ang Dios wala naghatag kanato ug espiritu sa kahadlok, kondili sa gahum ug gugma ug sa disiplina.
8 So never be ashamed/reluctant to tell others the message about our Lord. And do not [be ashamed] of me, [even though I am] a prisoner [because I preach about] him. Instead, [be willing to] suffer as I do as you proclaim the message about Christ. [Endure what you will suffer] by letting God empower [you to endure it].
Busa ayaw kaulaw sa saksi mahitungod sa atong Ginoo, ni bisan sa akoa, Pablo, nga iyang priniso, apan makig-ambit ka sa mga pag-antos alang sa maayong balita pinaagi sa gahum sa Dios
9 [God] saved us and chose us to conduct our lives in a pure way. It was not our doing good deeds/actions [that caused him to do this for us—something] that we did not deserve. Instead, before (time began/he created the world) he purposed/planned to [be kind to us] as a result of what Christ Jesus [would do for us]. (aiōnios g166)
nga nagluwas kanato ug nagtawag kanato sa balaan nga pagkatawag, dili pinaagi sa atong mga binuhatan, kondili pinaagi sa iyang kaugalingong plano ug grasya nga Iyang gihatag kanato diha kang Cristo Jesus sukad sa wala pa nagsugod ang panahon; (aiōnios g166)
10 Now, as a result of our Savior Christ Jesus having come, it has been revealed {he has shown} [that he acts kindly toward us. Specifically, Christ Jesus] has declared that we [will not remain dead after we] die! He has also revealed that, as a result of [our hearing and accepting] the message [about Christ, we] will live [forever in bodies that will] not decay!
apan karon ang kaluwasan sa Dios gipahayag sa pagpakita sa atong manluluwas nga si Cristo Jesus nga naglaglag sa kamatayon ug nagdala ug kinabuhi nga walay katapusan sa kahayag pinaagi sa maayong balita,
11 I was chosen {Christ chose me} to go as an apostle to many places and proclaim that message to people.
diin gipili ako nga magsasangyaw, apostol, ug magtutudlo.
12 So, even though I suffer [here in this prison], I am not ashamed [of being here] (OR, I am very confident), because I know [Christ Jesus], the one whom I have trusted, and I am convinced/sure that he is able to keep safe the good message that he has entrusted to me (OR, the things that I have entrusted [to him]), and that he will reward me at the time [MTY] [when he comes again].
Tungod niini nga hinungdan nag-antos sad ako niining mga butanga: apan wala ako maulaw; kay nakaila ako kaniya nga akong gituohan, ug ako nakombinsi nga iyang ampingan kadtong akong gipiyal kaniya hangtod moabot ang adlaw.
13 Be sure that you tell others the same correct message that you heard from me. [And as you tell it], keep trusting [in Christ Jesus] and keep loving [others] as Christ Jesus [enables you to do].
Magpadayon ka sa pagsundog sa himsog nga mga pulong nga nadunggan nimo gikan kanako, sa pagtuo ug sa gugma nga anaa kang Cristo Jesus.
14 Do not let anyone persuade you to change the [good message that] God has entrusted/given to you. Allow the Holy Spirit who lives in us to [direct what you say].
Kanang maayong butang nga gitugyan sa Dios kanimo, bantayi pinaaagi sa Balaang Espiritu, nga nagpuyo kanato.
15 You know that [almost] all [the believers] in Asia [province] have (turned away from/abandoned) me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
Nahibaw-an na nimo kini, nga ang tanan nga nagpuyo diha sa Asia nisalikway kanako; lakip niini nga grupo sila Figelo ug Hermogenes.
16 [But I pray that] the Lord will be kind to the family of Onesiphorus for the following reasons: Often he cheered me up and, [even though] I was a prisoner [MTY], he was not ashamed (of me/[to admit he was] my [friend]).
Hinaot unta nga kaloy-an sa Ginoo ang panimalay ni Onesiforo: kay kanunay siya nga nagpalagsik kanako, ug wala maulaw sa akong kadena,
17 On the contrary, when he came here to Rome, he diligently searched for me until he found me.
apan kadtong nianhi siya sa Roma, gakugi gyud siya ug pangita kanako, ug nakit-an niya ako -
18 [I pray that] the Lord will be kind to him on that day [MTY] [when he, the Lord, will judge people]. And how much Onesiphorus served [me] in Ephesus [city], you know very well.
hinaot nga hatagan siya sa Ginoo ug kalooy inig abot sa adlaw - ug sa tanang pagtabang niya kanako sa Efeso, nakahibalo kaayo ka niini.
