2 Ndị Tesalonaịka 1

1 Pọl, na Saịlas, na Timoti dere akwụkwọ a, Na-edegara nzukọ dị nʼobodo Tesalonaịka nʼime Chineke Nna anyị, na nʼime Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.

Paul, Silvanus and Timothy, to the congregation of the Thessalonians in God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ:

2 Ka amara na udo nke sitere na Chineke Nna anyị, na Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst dịrị unu.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.

3 Ụmụnna, anyị aghaghị ikele Chineke ekele mgbe niile banyere unu. O kwesiri ka anyị mee otu a, nʼihi okwukwe unu na-abawanye. Ịhụnanya onye ọbụla nʼime unu nwere nʼebe ibe ya nọ na-abawanyekwa.

We are obligated to always give thanks to God about you, brothers, and properly so, because your faith is really growing, and the love of each and every one of you towards each other keeps increasing;

4 Nʼihi nke a, anyị na-eji unu na-anya isi nʼetiti nzukọ Chineke niile. Anyị na-akọrọ ha otu unu si jiri ntachiobi nọgidesie ike nʼime nsogbu niile dakwasịrị unu, na otu unu si nwee okwukwe dị ukwuu, ọ bụladị nʼetiti oke mkpagbu a na-akpagbu unu.

so that we ourselves boast about you among God's congregations, referring to your steadfastness and faith in the midst of all your persecutions, and the tribulations that you are enduring

5 Ihe ndị a niile na-egosi na ikpe Chineke bụ nke ziri ezi, nke e ji eme unu ndị kwesiri alaeze Chineke, nke unu na-ata ahụhụ nʼihi ya.

—the above is evidence that God's judgment is right, to the end that you be considered worthy of the Kingdom of God, on behalf of which you are actually suffering;

6 Chineke bụ onye ezi omume nʼezie. Ọ ga-eji mkpagbu kwụghachi ndị na-akpagbu unu.

since to God it is right to pay back affliction to those who are afflicting you

7 Ọ ga-enyekwa unu bụ ndị a na-akpagbu na anyị onwe anyị ezumike. Ọ ga-eme nke a mgbe a ga-eme ka Onyenwe anyị Jisọs ya na ndị mmụọ ozi si nʼeluigwe pụta ìhè.

and rest (along with us) to you who are being afflicted, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with His powerful angels in blazing fire,

8 Ọ ga-abịa nʼụdị ire ọkụ taa ndị ahụ na-amaghị Chineke ahụhụ na ndị jụrụ ịnabata oziọma nke Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst.

inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ,

9 Ndị a ga-ata ahụhụ mbibi ruo ebighị ebi, ebe ha na-agaghị ahụ ihu Onyenwe anyị na ebube nke ike ya, (aiōnios g166)

who will pay a penalty: everlasting ruin, away from the face of the Lord and from the glory of His might, (aiōnios g166)

10 nʼụbọchị ahụ ọ ga-abịa ịnara ịja mma na otuto, nʼime ndị nsọ ya, ya na ka ọ bụrụ ihe ịtụnanya nʼebe ndị kweerenụ nọ, nʼihi na unu kwenyere ama nke oziọma ahụ anyị gbaara unu.

whenever He comes to be glorified by His saints, yes to be marveled at by all who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed); in that Day.

11 Nʼihi nke a, anyị na-anọgide nʼekpere nʼihi unu, na-arịọ ka Chineke gụọ unu dịka ndị kwesiri ọkpụkpọ ọ kpọrọ unu, na-arịọkwa ka o site nʼike ya mee ka unu mezuo ebumnobi nke ihe dị mma, na ezi ọrụ niile nke okwukwe.

To this end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling and fulfill with power every desire of usefulness and work of faith,

12 Ka e nye aha Onyenwe anyị Jisọs otuto nʼime unu, unu onwe unu nʼime ya kwa, dị ka amara nke Chineke anyị na nke Onyenwe anyị Jisọs Kraịst si dị.

so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
