< 2 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, according to a promise of life that [is] in Christ Jesus,
Pọl, onyeozi Kraịst Jisọs, dị ka uche Chineke si dị, na dị ka nkwa ndụ nʼime Kraịst Jisọs si dị,
2 to Timotheus, beloved child: Grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord!
Nye gị Timoti, ezi nwa m. Ka amara, na ebere na udo nke sitere na Chineke bụ Nna, na Kraịst Jisọs Onyenwe anyị dịrị gị.
3 I am thankful to God, whom I serve from progenitors in a pure conscience, that unceasingly I have remembrance concerning thee in my supplications night and day,
Ana m ekele Chineke, bụ onye m na-ejere ozi ekele, dị ka nna nna m ha mere site nʼakọnuche dị ọcha, ọtụtụ mgbe ka m na-echeta gị nʼekpere m ehihie na abalị.
4 desiring greatly to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that with joy I may be filled,
Ka m na-echeta anya mmiri gị, ọ na-agụsị m agụụ ike ehihie na abalị ịhụ gị, ka ọṅụ m zuo oke.
5 taking remembrance of the unfeigned faith that is in thee, that dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that also in thee.
Emere m ka m cheta okwukwe ihu abụọ nʼadịghị nke i nwere, bụ okwukwe nke burii ụzọ dịrị nʼime nne nne gị Lọịsi, bịa dịkwa nʼime nne gị Yunaịsi. Emere ka m kwenye na otu okwukwe ahụ dịkwa nʼime gị.
6 For which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God that is in thee through the putting on of my hands,
Nʼihi nke a, achọrọ m ichetara gị ka i mee ka onyinye Chineke ahụ i nwere na-enwu dị ka ọkụ, bụ nke i natara mgbe m bikwasịrị gị aka m abụọ nʼisi.
7 for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind;
Nʼihi na Chineke enyeghị anyị mmụọ ịtụ ụjọ, kama o nyere anyị mmụọ na-emejupụta anyị nʼike, na ịhụnanya, na uche zuruoke.
8 therefore thou mayest not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but do thou suffer evil along with the good news according to the power of God,
Ihere emela gị ikwupụta ama banyere Onyenwe anyị maọbụ banyere m bụ onye mkpọrọ ya. Kama, site nʼike Chineke, soro m hụọ ahụhụ nʼihi oziọma ahụ.
9 who did save us, and did call with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, that was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the times of the ages, (aiōnios g166)
Ọ zọpụtara anyị, kpọbata anyị na ndụ dị nsọ. Ọ bụghị nʼihi na anyị kwesiri ka a kpọọ anyị, kama, ọ bụ nʼihi nzube ya na amara ya. E nyere anyị amara nʼime Kraịst Jisọs tupu a tọọ ntọala ụwa a. (aiōnios g166)
10 and was made manifest now through the manifestation of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who indeed did abolish death, and did enlighten life and immortality through the good news,
Ugbu a, o meela ka ihe niile o zubere pụta ìhè site nʼọbịbịa Onye nzọpụta anyị Jisọs Kraịst, onye lara ike ọnwụ nʼiyi, zi anyị ụzọ anyị ga-esi nwee ndụ ebighị ebi site nʼoziọma ahụ.
11 to which I was placed a preacher and an apostle, and a teacher of nations,
Nʼihi oziọma a, ahọpụtara m ka m bụrụ onye na-ekwusa oziọma a, na onyeozi, na onye nkuzi.
12 for which cause also these things I suffer, but I am not ashamed, for I have known in whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able that which I have committed to him to guard — to that day.
Ọ bụkwa nʼihi nke a ka m ji na-ahụ ahụhụ ndị a nʼebe a, ma nʼeziokwu, ihere adịghị eme m, nʼihi na amaara m onye m na-atụkwasị obi, amakwaara m nke ọma, na o nwere ike ichebe ihe niile m nyere ya nʼaka idebe tutu ruo ụbọchị ahụ.
13 The pattern hold thou of sound words, which from me thou didst hear, in faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus;
Jidesie eziokwu ahụ aka ike, ụdị eziokwu ahụ mụ onwe m ziri gị, eziokwu ahụ gbasara okwukwe ahụ, na ịhụnanya ahụ dị nʼime Kraịst Jisọs.
14 the good thing committed guard thou through the Holy Spirit that is dwelling in us;
Chezie onyinye ọma ahụ e sitere nʼaka Mmụọ Nsọ bi nʼime gị nye gị idebe.
15 thou hast known this, that they did turn from me — all those in Asia, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes;
Dị ka i maara, ndị niile si nʼEshịa bịa nʼebe a agbakụtala m azụ. Ọ bụladị Faigelọs na Hamogịnịs ahapụla m laa.
16 may the Lord give kindness to the house of Onesiphorus, because many times he did refresh me, and of my chain was not ashamed,
Ka Onyenwe anyị mere ezinaụlọ Onisiferọs ebere, nʼihi ume ọ gbara m ọtụtụ mgbe. Ihere emeghị ya na-abụ m onye mkpọrọ.
17 but being in Rome, very diligently he sought me, and found;
Mgbe ọ bịaruru Rom, ọ chọgharịrị m nʼebe niile, ma nʼikpeazụ, ọ chọtara m.
18 may the Lord give to him to find kindness from the Lord in that day; and how many things in Ephesus he did minister thou dost very well know.
Ka Onyenwe anyị kwe ka ọ nata ebere nʼaka Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ahụ. Ị mara nke ọma ụdị aka o nyere m nʼEfesọs.
