2 U Timotheo 1
1 U Paulo umutume wa Yesu kristi sha hwanza Ungolobhe, sawasawa nu Ngolobhe shahaidile uwomi uuli mhati ya Kristi Yesu,
From Paul who, by the will of God, is an apostle of Christ Jesus, charged to proclaim the life that comes from union with Christ Jesus,
2 hwa Timotheo umwana yaganilwe: Uwene nu pumu afume hwa Ngolobhe udaada wa Kristi Yesu U Bwana wentu.
to Timothy, my dear child: may God, the Father, and Christ Jesus, our Lord, bless you, and be merciful to you, and give you peace.
3 Ihusalipya Ungolobhe, yihumwombele shilola shinza nanzi shahawa wombile awadaada wentu, lwihwizuha ane iputa daima pamunsi
I am thankful to God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, when I remember you, as I never fail to do, in my prayers – night and day alike,
4 ishasenya inyonywa alole aje imemeje asongwe. Ihwinzuha amasonzi gaho.
as I think of your tears, longing to see you, that my happiness may be completed,
5 Indi sihuzusya ahusu lweteho waho lioli, owo ulwahwande wahakheye hwa bibi waho u Loisi nu manye wano Uyunisi. Imenye aje ulweteho uwo ukhalamhanti yaho.
now that I have been reminded of the sincere faith that you have shown. That faith was seen first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and is now, I am convinced, in you also.
6 Eshi ane uhuhuzusya azinjizye ishipaji sha Ngolobhe shishileho mhati lyaho hwi idala lyaweshelwe inyowe zyane.
And that is my reason for reminding you to stir into flame that gift of God, which is yours through your ordination at my hands.
7 Uno Ungolobhe sanga ahatupiye impepo lya wonga, ila ngingovu na yilugano ni shinshi.
For the Spirit which God gave us was not a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power, love, and self-control.
8 Awe usahailolele insoni yahunyanje uBwana wentu, nu wahuline ane ni Paulo impinyilwe nao. Huje indeho humalawa yii inzwi sawasawa ni ingovu zya Ngolobhe.
Do not, therefore, be ashamed of the testimony which we have to bear to our Lord, or of me imprisoned for his sake; but join with me in suffering for the good news, as far as God enables you.
9 Yu Ngolobhe yatukomboye na hulukwizye huu winto ugolosu. Saga ahawombile esho afuatane ni mbombo izyentu ila alengane nuweene na umupango ugwanke yonyo. Ahatupiye amambo ego hwa Kristi Yesu ghangasele omasala ahuenze. (aiōnios g166)
It was God who saved us, and from him we received our solemn call – not as a reward for anything that we had done, but in fulfillment of his own loving purpose. For that love was extended to us, through Christ Jesus, before time began, (aiōnios g166)
10 Lakini eshi ukombolwe wa Ngolobhe ulipa zelu uwahwenze umlokozi wenti uKristi Yesu. U Kristi yakomesha ufye na alente uwomi wasanga uduga huu zelu winzwi.
and has now been made apparent through the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus; who has made an end of death, and has brought life and immortality to light by that good news,
11 Aje ane nahasaluliwe awe nombelelo, mtume na umwalimu.
of which I was myself appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher.
12 Ane ilawa nantele, ila sagailola insoni maana imenye umwene yamkombonye. Isimisizye aje umwene alini ngovu huhatunzye hala hahaweshele kwa ajili ya isiku lila.
That is why I am undergoing these sufferings; yet I feel no shame, for I know in whom I have put my faith, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.
13 Uyuzushe ifwano yi nongwa ya ugolosu uuhovyezye afume huline. Peka nu lweteho na ulugano ulelo mhanti ya Kristi Yesu.
Keep before you, as an example of sound teaching, all that you learnt from me as you listened with that faith and love which come from union with Christ Jesus.
14 Gaweshe amambo aminza gapelile Ungolobhe ashilile upepo ufinjile uhale mhanti yetu.
Guard by the help of the Holy Spirit, who is within us, the glorious trust that has been committed to you.
15 Umenye aje wonti wawakhala huu Asia wahaleshile. Hwikundi eli waleho Figelo nu Hemogene.
You know, of course, that all our friends in Roman Asia turned their backs on me, including Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 U Bwana aisajile inyumba ya Onesiforo amasala minchi ahanghelezezye sanga ahandoleye insoni umnyololo gwane.
May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus; for he often cheered me and was not ashamed of my chains.
17 Badala yakwe lwahali hu Roma ahanazile hani na ahanajile.
On the contrary, when he arrived in Rome, he sought eagerly for me until he found me.
18 Ungolobhe amwavyaje apele irehema afume humwakwe isiku lila. Umwene ananavyinze lwanahali hwa Efeso, awe umenye shinza.
The Lord grant that he may find mercy at the hands of the Lord on that day. The many services that he rendered at Ephesus you have the best means of knowing.
