< 2 Xiimotewos 1 >

1 Phaawulos isa akkuma waadaa jireenya karaa Kiristoos Yesuusiin galame sanaatti fedhii Waaqaatiin ergamaa Kiristoos Yesuus taʼe irraa,
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God according to the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus,
2 Gara Xiimotewos, ilma koo jaallatamaatti: Abbaa keenya Waaqaa fi Gooftaa keenya Kiristoos Yesuus irraa ayyaanni, araarrii fi nagaan siif haa taʼu.
to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Ani yommuu utuu gargar hin kutin halkanii guyyaa kadhannaa koo keessatti si yaadadhutti Waaqa akkuma abbootii kootii anis yaada qulqulluun isa waaqeffadhu sana nan galateeffadha.
I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience as my forefathers did, as night and day I constantly remember yoʋ in my prayers.
4 Ani yommuun imimmaan kee yaadadhutti akka gammachuudhaan guutamuuf guddisee si arguu nan hawwa.
Recalling yoʋr tears, I long to see yoʋ so that I may be filled with joy.
5 Ani amantii kee isa dhugaa sana nan yaadadha; amantiin kunis jalqabatti akkoo kee Looʼisii fi haadha kee Ewuunqee keessa ture; amma immoo akka si keessa jiru nan amana.
I am reminded of the sincere faith that is in yoʋ, which dwelt first in yoʋr grandmother Lois and in yoʋr mother Eunice, and now, I am sure, dwells in yoʋ also.
6 Sababii kanaaf ani akka ati kennaa Waaqaa kan yeroo ani harka koo sirra kaaʼetti siif kenname sana akka ibiddaatti akka qabsiiftuuf sin yaadachiisa.
Therefore I remind yoʋ to rekindle the gift of God that is in yoʋ through the laying on of my hands.
7 Waaqni hafuura humnaa, kan jaalalaatii fi kan of dhowwuu nuu kenne malee hafuura sodaa nuuf hin kennineetii.
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, love, and sound judgment.
8 Kanaafuu waaʼee Gooftaa keenyaa dhugaa baʼuutti yookaan ana nama isaaf jedhee hidhametti hin qaanaʼin. Wangeelaaf dhiphachuu keessatti garuu humna Waaqaatiin na wajjin hirmaadhu;
Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord or of me his prisoner. Rather, join with me in suffering for the gospel as you rely on the power of God.
9 Waaqni sababii kaayyoo isaatii fi sababii ayyaana isaatiif nu fayyisee gara jireenya qulqulluutti nu waame malee sababii hojii nu hojjenne kamiif iyyuu miti. Ayyaanni kunis uumama addunyaatiin dura karaa Kiristoos Yesuusiin nuu kenname; (aiōnios g166)
He saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace. This grace was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, (aiōnios g166)
10 amma garuu ayyaanni sun dhufaatii Fayyisaa keenya Kiristoos Yesuus isa karaa wangeelaatiin duʼa balleessee jireenyaa fi badiisa ooluu ifatti baase sanaatiin mulʼifameera.
but has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
11 Anis wangeela kanaaf lallabaa, ergamaa fi barsiisaa taʼee muudameera.
For this gospel I was appointed to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 Anis akka amma jiru kanatti dhiphachuun koo kanumaaf. Ani garuu eenyun akka amane waan beekuuf hin qaanaʼu; akka inni waan ani imaanaa itti kennadhe hamma guyyaa sanaatti eeguu dandaʼus nan amana.
That is why I am suffering these things. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard what has been entrusted to me until that day.
13 Waan narraa dhageesse sana akka fakkeenya barsiisa dhugaatti amantii fi jaalala Kiristoos Yesuusiin qabdu jabeessii qabadhu.
Hold to the pattern of sound teaching that yoʋ have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
14 Waan gaarii imaanaa sitti kenname sana gargaarsa Hafuura Qulqulluu nu keessa jiraatu sanaatiin eegi.
By the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, guard the good deposit that has been entrusted to yoʋ.
15 Namoonni biyya Asiyaa keessa jiraatan hundinuu akka narraa gara galan ni beekta; Fiigeloosii fi Hermoogenees isaan keessa jiru.
Yoʋ know that everyone in Asia has turned away from me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 Oneesifooros yeroo baayʼee waan na boqochiiseef Gooftaan warra mana isaa jiraataniif araara haa buusu; inni hidhamuu kootti illee hin qaanofneetii.
May the Lord give mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains.
17 Akkasumas inni yeroo Roomaa dhufetti hamma na argutti dhimmee na barbaadaa ture.
On the contrary, when he arrived in Rome, he sought me out very diligently and found me.
18 Akka inni guyyaa sanatti Gooftaa irraa araara argatuuf fedhii Gooftaa haa taʼu! Inni Efesoon keessatti karaa baayʼeen akka na tajaajile ati iyyuu sirriitti beekta.
May the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that day! Yoʋ know very well all the ways he helped me in Ephesus.
