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 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 son, grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father, and from 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 give thanks to God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience, having remembrance of thee continually in my prayers night and day;
4 Ani yommuun imimmaan kee yaadadhutti akka gammachuudhaan guutamuuf guddisee si arguu nan hawwa.
greatly desiring to see thee, (for I remember thy tears, ) 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.
keeping in memory the unfeigned faith, that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice: and I am persuaded that it dwells in thee 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.
for which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God which is in thee through the imposition of my hands.
7 Waaqni hafuura humnaa, kan jaalalaatii fi kan of dhowwuu nuu kenne malee hafuura sodaa nuuf hin kennineetii.
For God hath not given us a spirit of fearfulness, but of vigor, and of love, and of prudence.
8 Kanaafuu waaʼee Gooftaa keenyaa dhugaa baʼuutti yookaan ana nama isaaf jedhee hidhametti hin qaanaʼin. Wangeelaaf dhiphachuu keessatti garuu humna Waaqaatiin na wajjin hirmaadhu;
Be not therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but bear thy part in the afflictions of the gospel, according to 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)
who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose, and grace bestowed upon us through Christ Jesus, before the world was, (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 now made manifest by the appearance of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light by the gospel: for which I was appointed an herald,
11 Anis wangeela kanaaf lallabaa, ergamaa fi barsiisaa taʼee muudameera.
and 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.
for which cause also I suffer these things; but I am not ashamed: for I know in whom I have trusted, and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him against that day.
13 Waan narraa dhageesse sana akka fakkeenya barsiisa dhugaatti amantii fi jaalala Kiristoos Yesuusiin qabdu jabeessii qabadhu.
Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Waan gaarii imaanaa sitti kenname sana gargaarsa Hafuura Qulqulluu nu keessa jiraatu sanaatiin eegi.
The good thing committed to thee keep, through the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in us.
15 Namoonni biyya Asiyaa keessa jiraatan hundinuu akka narraa gara galan ni beekta; Fiigeloosii fi Hermoogenees isaan keessa jiru.
Thou knowest that all those of Asia are turned from me, of whom is Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 Oneesifooros yeroo baayʼee waan na boqochiiseef Gooftaan warra mana isaa jiraataniif araara haa buusu; inni hidhamuu kootti illee hin qaanofneetii.
The Lord shew mercy to the family of Onesiphorus; for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: but when he was at Rome,
17 Akkasumas inni yeroo Roomaa dhufetti hamma na argutti dhimmee na barbaadaa ture.
he sought for me the more 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.
(The Lord grant that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day!) And how much he ministered to me at Ephesus too, thou knowest full well.
