2 Timoteo 1
1 Si Pablo, na apostol ni Cristo Jesus sa pamamagitan ng kalooban ng Dios, ayon sa pangako ng buhay na nasa kay Cristo Jesus,
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 Kay Timoteo na aking minamahal na anak: Biyaya, kaawaan, kapayapaan nawang mula sa Dios Ama at kay Cristo Jesus na Panginoon natin.
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 Nagpapasalamat ako sa Dios, na mula sa aking kanunununuan ay aking pinaglilingkuran sa budhing malinis, na walang patid na inaalaala kita sa aking mga daing, gabi't araw;
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 Na kinasasabikan kong makita kita, na inaalaala ang iyong mga pagluha, upang ako'y mapuspos ng kagalakan;
as I think of your tears, longing to see you, that my happiness may be completed,
5 Na inaalaala ko ang pananampalatayang hindi pakunwari na nasa iyo; na namalagi muna kay Loida na iyong lelang, at kay Eunice na iyong ina; at, ako'y naniniwalang lubos, na nasa iyo rin naman.
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 Dahil dito ay ipinaaalaala ko sa iyo na paningasin mo ang kaloob ng Dios, na nasa iyo sa pamamagitan ng pagpapatong ng aking mga kamay.
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 Sapagka't hindi tayo binigyan ng Dios ng espiritu ng katakutan; kundi ng kapangyarihan at ng pagibig at ng kahusayan.
For the Spirit which God gave us was not a spirit of cowardice, but a spirit of power, love, and self-control.
8 Huwag mo ngang ikahiya ang pagpapatotoo sa ating Panginoon, ni ako na bilanggo niya: kundi magtiis ka ng mga kahirapan dahil sa evangelio ayon sa kapangyarihan ng Dios;
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 Na siyang sa atin ay nagligtas, at sa atin ay tumawag ng isang banal na pagtawag, hindi ayon sa ating mga gawa, kundi ayon sa kaniyang sariling akala at biyaya, na ibinigay sa atin kay Cristo Jesus buhat pa ng mga panahong walang hanggan. (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 Nguni't ngayon ay nahayag sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakita ng ating Tagapagligtas na si Cristo Jesus, na siyang nagalis ng kamatayan, at nagdala sa liwanag ng buhay at ng walang pagkasira sa pamamagitan ng evangelio,
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 Na sa bagay na ito ay ako'y itinalaga na tagapangaral, at apostol at guro.
of which I was myself appointed a herald, apostle, and teacher.
12 Dahil dito'y nagtiis din ako ng mga bagay na ito: gayon ma'y hindi ako nahihiya; sapagka't nakikilala ko yaong aking sinampalatayanan, at lubos akong naniniwalang siya'y makapagiingat ng aking ipinagkatiwala sa kaniya hanggang sa araw na yaon.
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 Ingatan mo ang mga ulirang mga salitang magagaling na narinig mo sa akin, sa pananampalataya at pagibig na nasa kay Cristo Jesus.
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 Yaong mabuting bagay na ipinagkatiwala sa iyo ay ingatan mo sa pamamagitan ng Espiritu Santo na nananahan sa atin.
Guard by the help of the Holy Spirit, who is within us, the glorious trust that has been committed to you.
15 Ito'y nalalaman mo, na nagsihiwalay sa akin ang lahat ng nangasa Asia; na sa mga yaon ay si Figello at si Hermogenes.
You know, of course, that all our friends in Roman Asia turned their backs on me, including Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 Pagkalooban nawa ng Panginoon ng habag ang sangbahayan ni Onesiforo: sapagka't madalas niya akong pinaginhawa, at hindi ikinahiya ang aking tanikala;
May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus; for he often cheered me and was not ashamed of my chains.
17 Kundi, nang siya'y nasa Roma, ay hinanap niya ako ng buong sikap, at ako'y nasumpungan niya.
On the contrary, when he arrived in Rome, he sought eagerly for me until he found me.
18 (Pagkalooban nawa siya ng Panginoon na masumpungan niya ang kahabagan ng Panginoon sa araw na yaon); at totoong alam mo kung gaano karaming mga bagay ang ipinaglingkod niya sa Efeso.
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.
