2 Timotheo 1
1 Uve vi Paulo vinsugwa va Yesu Klisite khulugano ulwa Nguluve, ni khukhuvulo nita ndagano inche womi mugati mwa Klisite Yesu,
PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,
2 ukhuva u Timoti umwana ugane: Ikhisa nu lunonchehenso nu lukhungu ukhuhuma khwa Nguluve u Dada nu Klisite Yesu utwa vito.
to Timothy, my beloved son: grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Nikhundimya u Nguluve, uvumwene nikhumbombela khu vunogwe uvunonu ndavuwa vavombile ava dada vito, vunikhumbukha isikhu nchoni mundwisayo lwango. Pakhilo na
I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with a pure conscience, that I keep up a constant remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
4 pamusi ninogwa ni khuvone nu khuhovokha. Nikhunjikhumbukha inyihonchi nchakho.
earnestly desiring to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I might be filled with joy;
5 Nale nukhu ng'umbusya ulunonchehe nchonso ulwa vuyilweli ukhuhuma pavutengulilo nukhutama na vapapa vako Loisi nu vanyokho vakho u Yunisi. Nilinuvulweli ukhuta ulwidikho lutama mugati indyumwe.
recalling to my memory the unfeigned faith which was in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that it is in thee also.
6 Iyi yuyimbikhile ukhuta ugadilage ikhikhungilwa kya Nguluve ikhimwukhile mugati mu ndyuve khunjila iya khubadikhiwa amavokho gango.
For which cause I remind thee that thou fan into a flame the divine gift, which is in thee by the imposition of my hands.
7 Ulwa khuva uNguluve satupe umepo umbalanche nu vudwanchie ukhuta na makha nu lugano nu lugendo.
For God hath not given us a spirit of fear; but of courage, and of love, and of sobriety.
8 Ulekhe ukhuvuvonela isoni imivele igyia Ntwa vito, nukhuta uve ulivango ne Paulo ni nkhugwa vamwene. Puave nu vukhuvilwa vulevule nu vuvaha wa Nguluve.
Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but suffer affliction with me in the gospel, supported by the power of God;
9 Vi Nguluve uviatupokhile nu khutwilanga khulwilango uluvalanche. Savombe evo ukhukhwanana ne mbombo nchetu nu khukhwananincha ni khisa ni mivele gya mwene yuywa. Atupile imbombo ncha mwene mwa Klisite uYesu pavutengulilo ukhutengula nu nsikhi. (aiōnios g166)
who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before time had a beginning; (aiōnios g166)
10 Ulwa khuva uvuvalanche wa Nguluve vumalile ukhudenduliwa ukhwincha kwa pokhi vitu u Klisite Yesu. Vi Klisite uviimisye imifimba nu khugega uwomi uvusawisila khulumuly lwa livangili.
but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and brought to light life and immortality by the gospel:
11 Ulwa khuva na halilwe nu ndumbililyi nu utwa nu manyisi.
whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 Ulwa khuva nagatanchiwe sanivona khinu ukhumanya umwene uvinamalile ukhwidika. Nilinuwa yilweli nelolelage isikhu nchoni khumwene.
For which cause also I suffer these things; but I am not ashamed: for I know on whom I have placed my confidence, and am persuaded that he is mighty to guard my deposit unto the great day.
13 Ukhumbuke ikhikhwani ikhya limenyu ilyavugolofu iliwapulikhe ukhuhuma khulyune, paninye we kisa nu lugano lulwa lulyi mugati mwa Klisite Yesu.
Model thy teaching according to the pattern of the sound discourses, which thou hast heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Gavikhe amasago amanonu agakhupile u Nguluve ukhugendela mwa mepo umbalanche uvitama mugati ndyufwe.
The glorious deposit committed to thy trust, guard by the Holy Ghost who dwelleth in us.
15 Ulumanyile ukhuta voni avitama khu Asia vandekhile. Khukhipuga ikhi valemuvale ava figelo nu Hemogene.
Knowest thou this, that all those of Asia have deserted me? among whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 Utwa ayisaye ikhaya ya Onesiforo ulwa khuva unsikhi gwuoni alikhuhovosya nu khusita ukhuvona isoni ne misongerehane gwyango.
The Lord grant mercy unto the household of Onesiphorus because he frequently was a refreshment to my soul, and was not ashamed of my chain:
17 Ukhuva uluale khu Roma khu makha akhambona.
but, when he was at Rome, he sought me out diligently, and found me.
18 Unguluve ansayage nu khumwimika nu luhungu ukhuhuma ilinsova lila. Nduvu anangile vunale khu Efeso, uve ulumanyile vunonu.
The Lord grant that he may find mercy with the Lord in the great day; and how liberally he ministered to me at Ephesus, thou knowest better than any other person.
