< 2 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus, by the will of God, for proclaiming the promise of the Life which is in 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 dearly-loved child. May grace, mercy and peace be granted to you from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
che ri loqꞌalaj nukꞌojol Timoteo: Are ri Tataxel Dios xuqujeꞌ ri Cristo Jesús ri Ajawxel cheyoꞌw toqꞌobꞌ, toqꞌobꞌisan wach, xuqujeꞌ jaꞌmaril chawe.
3 I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience--as my forefathers did--that night and day I unceasingly remember you in my prayers,
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 being always mindful of your tears, and longing to see you that I may be filled with joy.
Xuqujeꞌ are kanaꞌtaj ri uwaꞌl awach chwe, are xinel loq, kawaj katinwil chi junmul, rech kinnoj che kiꞌkotemal.
5 For I recall the sincere faith which is in your heart--a faith which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and then in your mother Eunice, and, I am fully convinced, now dwells 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 For this reason let me remind you to rekindle God's gift which is yours through the laying on of 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 has given us is not a spirit of cowardice, but one of power and of love and of sound judgement.
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 be ashamed then to bear witness for our Lord and for me His prisoner; but rather share suffering with me in the service of the Good News, strengthened by the power of God.
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 For He saved us and called us with a holy call, not in accordance with our desserts, but in accordance with His own purpose and the free grace which He bestowed on us in Christ Jesus before the commencement of the Ages, (aiōnios g166)
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 g166)
10 but which has now been plainly revealed through the Appearing of our Saviour, Christ Jesus. He has put an end to death and has brought Life and Immortality to light through the 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 have been appointed a preacher, Apostle and teacher, to the Gentiles.
In xinux taqoꞌn, ajtij, xuqujeꞌ tzijol rech we tzij riꞌ.
12 That indeed is the reason why I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know in whom my trust reposes, and I am confident that He has it in His power to keep what I have entrusted to Him safe 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 Provide yourself with an outline of the sound teaching which you have heard from my lips, and be true to the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
Chatereneꞌj ri kꞌutuꞌn ri xawetaꞌmaj wukꞌ, rukꞌ kojobꞌal xuqujeꞌ loqꞌanik pa Cristo Jesús.
14 That precious treasure which is in your charge, guard through the Holy Spirit who has His home in our hearts.
Chachajij ri jeꞌl laj kꞌutuꞌn rukꞌ ri ukwinem ri Tyoxalaj Uxlabꞌixel, ri kꞌo pa qanimaꞌ.
15 Of this you are aware, that all the Christians in Roman Asia have deserted me: and among them Phygelus 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 many a time he cheered me and he was not ashamed of my chain.
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 Nay, when he was here in Rome, he took great pains to inquire where I was living, and at last he found me.
Xuqujeꞌ are xopan pa ri tinimit Roma, xinutzukuj kꞌa xinuriq na.
18 (The Lord grant that he may obtain mercy at His hands on that day!) And you yourself well know all the services which he rendered me in Ephesus.
Are bꞌa ri Ajawxel chutoqꞌobisaj kiwach pa ri qꞌij rech chilaꞌ chikaj. Awetaꞌm ronojel ri patanijik ri xubꞌan wukꞌ pa ri tinimit Éfeso.
