2 Timoty 1
1 I Paoly, Firàhe’ Iesoà Norizañey ami’ty satrin’ arofon’ Añahare, amam-pitamàn-kaveloñe am’ Iesoà Norizañey.
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,
2 Ho a i Timoty, anake kokoako: Hasoa naho tretre vaho ty fañanintsin’ Añahare Rae naho i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey.
to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Andriañeko t’Andrianañahare italahoako manahak’ an-droaeko an-kazavan-troke, le mahatiahy azo nainai’e iraho am-pilolofako handro an-kaleñe;
I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, as without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day,
4 le misalala hahatrea azo amy fitiahiako i ranomaso’oy, hahaliforañ’ ahy an-kaehake,
longing to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;
5 ie tiahiko ty fatokisan-tò an-tro’o ao, ze nimoneñe heike tañova’ i Loizae renebei’o naho amy Eonikae rene’o vaho atokisako te ama’o ka.
when I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that it dwelleth in thee also.
6 Izay ty añosihako azo ty hampibelañe i falalàn’ Añaharey ama’o añamy nanampezan-tañakoy.
For which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the laying on of my hands;
7 Toe tsy tinolon’ Añahare troke mimalimalitse tika, fa ty arofon-kaozarañe naho ty fikokoañe, vaho ty filieram-batañe.
for God gave us not the spirit of cowardice, but of power, and of love, and of admonition.
8 Aa le ko salareñe ty talili’ i Talèntikañey, naho izaho mpirohi’e, fe mitraofa amako ami’ty falovilovia’ i talili-soay amy haozaran’ Añaharey,
Be not then ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship with me for the gospel through the power of God,
9 i fa nandrombake antika naho nikanjy antika am-pikanjiañe miavake, tsy ty amo fitoloñan-tikañeo, fa amy satrin’ arofo’ey naho i falalàñe natolotse antika am’ Iesoà Norizañey taolo’ ty fifotora’ o sàoy, (aiōnios g166)
who saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and the grace which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, (aiōnios g166)
10 f’ie naboake henane zao ami’ty fitotsaha’ i Mpandrombak’ antika Iesoà Norizañey, i nandrotsake i havilasiiy vaho ninday haveloñe naho tsi-fihomahañe mb’ an-kazavàñe mb’eo amy talili-soay,
but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and incorruption to light through the gospel,
11 i nanendreañe ahy ho mpitaroñe naho Firàheñe naho mpañokey.
for which I was appointed a herald, and an apostle, and a teacher of the gentiles.
12 I hoe zay ty isotriako o raha zao; fe tsy salatse, fantako i Fiatoakoy, vaho atokisako t’ie mahafihaja i nampañajako azey ampara’ i àndroy.
For which cause I suffer also these things. But I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which he hath committed to me unto that day.
13 Tambozoro ami’ty fatokisa’o naho fikokoa’o am’ Iesoà Norizañey ty vente’ o tsara-kanintsiñe tsinano’o tamakoo.
Hold the pattern of sound words, which thou heardest from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus;
14 Vontitiro o raha soa natolotse azoo ami’ ty fañimbà’ i Arofo Masiñe mimoneñe añovan-tikañey.
the good trust committed to thee keep through the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in us.
15 Apota’o te fonga niamboho ahy i e Asia añe rey miharo amy Figelo vaho i Hermogena.
Thou knowest this, that all those in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 Ehe te ho tretreze’ i Talè o añ’anjomba’ i Onesiforoseo, fa beteke nampanintsiñe ahiko vaho tsy nahameñatse aze o silisilikoo,
The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain; but on the contrary,
17 f’ie te Roma le nitsoek’ ahy ampara’ te nioni’e.
when he arrived at Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
18 Hatolo’ i Talè aze abey ty hahaoniña’e tretrè amy Talè amy andro zay! Ie fohi’o soa o sata maro nitoroña’e ahiko e Efesosy añeo.
The Lord grant to him that he may find mercy from the Lord in that day: and what services he rendered me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.
