[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.

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.

[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.
6 E'izanku Anumzamofo musezama (gift) kagu'afima kami'neana hugre kru huo, nazama kavufgare nentogeno, kami'nea zanku hugagesa nehue.
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].
7 Na'ankure Anumzamo'a kore huno fraki Avamura ontami'ne. Hianagi hanave'ane, avesi'ene, avufga antermino kentahi avamu tami'ne.
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.

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].
9 Kefo zantifinti taza huno tvareno ruotge kezampinti tagihu'ne. Mago knare eriza eri'nona zanteku anara osu'ne. Hagi Agra agafa'a me'negu huno asunku'zanteti Krais Jisasimpi ko'ma ofenka'ati taza hu'neazamo mevava nehie. (aiōnios )
[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 )
10 Hianagi menia tazahu ne' Krais Jisasimpi eriama nehuno, fri'zana eri netreno, tasimu neramino ofri manivava mani'zana Knare Musenke'afi (gospol) eriama nehie.
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!

I was chosen {Christ chose me} to go as an apostle to many places and proclaim that message to people.

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].

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].
14 Ruotge Avamu'ma tagu'afi mani'nemo kaza nehanigenka, antahi kamino kami'nea kamentintia kegava huo.
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].

You know that [almost] all [the believers] in Asia [province] have (turned away from/abandoned) me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 Nagrama seni nofite kina nompima mani'nogeno, agazegu osuno nazama hu'nerera, Onesiforusi nagara Ra Anumzamo asuntgi anteno aza hanie.
[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]).
17 Hianagi Romu kumate enehanatino'a nagriku avune anteno hakreno ne-eno eme nage forehu'ne.
On the contrary, when he came here to Rome, he diligently searched for me until he found me.
18 Onesiforusina anama hu'nerera, Kraisi'ma esnia zupa Ra Anumzamo asuntaginteno aza hanie. Hanki nama'a zupo agra nazama hiana, Efesasi kumatera kagra ke'nane.
[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.
