2 Timoti 1
1 Pọl, onyeozi Kraịst Jisọs, dị ka uche Chineke si dị, na dị ka nkwa ndụ nʼime Kraịst Jisọs si dị,
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,
2 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.
to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 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.
I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day
4 Ka m na-echeta anya mmiri gị, ọ na-agụsị m agụụ ike ehihie na abalị ịhụ gị, ka ọṅụ m zuo oke.
longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be filled with joy;
5 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.
having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you, which lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, in you also.
6 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.
For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
7 Nʼihi na Chineke enyeghị anyị mmụọ ịtụ ụjọ, kama o nyere anyị mmụọ na-emejupụta anyị nʼike, na ịhụnanya, na uche zuruoke.
For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
8 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.
Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,
9 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)
who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal, (aiōnios g166)
10 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.
but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the Good News.
11 Nʼihi oziọma a, ahọpụtara m ka m bụrụ onye na-ekwusa oziọma a, na onyeozi, na onye nkuzi.
For this I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 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.
For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that day.
13 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.
Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Chezie onyinye ọma ahụ e sitere nʼaka Mmụọ Nsọ bi nʼime gị nye gị idebe.
That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
15 Dị ka i maara, ndị niile si nʼEshịa bịa nʼebe a agbakụtala m azụ. Ọ bụladị Faigelọs na Hamogịnịs ahapụla m laa.
This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 Ka Onyenwe anyị mere ezinaụlọ Onisiferọs ebere, nʼihi ume ọ gbara m ọtụtụ mgbe. Ihere emeghị ya na-abụ m onye mkpọrọ.
May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,
17 Mgbe ọ bịaruru Rom, ọ chọgharịrị m nʼebe niile, ma nʼikpeazụ, ọ chọtara m.
but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently and found me
18 Ka Onyenwe anyị kwe ka ọ nata ebere nʼaka Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ahụ. Ị mara nke ọma ụdị aka o nyere m nʼEfesọs.
(the Lord grant to him to find the Lord’s mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.
