< 2 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, in accord with the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,
παυλοσ αποστολοσ ιησου χριστου δια θεληματοσ θεου κατ επαγγελιαν ζωησ τησ εν χριστω ιησου
2 to Timothy, most beloved son. Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and from Christ Jesus our Lord.
τιμοθεω αγαπητω τεκνω χαρισ ελεοσ ειρηνη απο θεου πατροσ και χριστου ιησου του κυριου ημων
3 I give thanks to God, whom I serve, as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. For without ceasing I hold the remembrance of you in my prayers, night and day,
χαριν εχω τω θεω ω λατρευω απο προγονων εν καθαρα συνειδησει ωσ αδιαλειπτον εχω την περι σου μνειαν εν ταισ δεησεσιν μου νυκτοσ και ημερασ
4 desiring to see you, recalling your tears so as to be filled with joy,
επιποθων σε ιδειν μεμνημενοσ σου των δακρυων ινα χαρασ πληρωθω
5 calling to mind the same faith, which is in you unfeigned, which also first dwelt in your grandmother, Lois, and in your mother, Eunice, and also, I am certain, in you.
υπομνησιν λαμβανων τησ εν σοι ανυποκριτου πιστεωσ ητισ ενωκησεν πρωτον εν τη μαμμη σου λωιδι και τη μητρι σου ευνικη πεπεισμαι δε οτι και εν σοι
6 Because of this, I admonish you to revive the grace of God, which is in you by the imposition of my hands.
δι ην αιτιαν αναμιμνησκω σε αναζωπυρειν το χαρισμα του θεου ο εστιν εν σοι δια τησ επιθεσεωσ των χειρων μου
7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of virtue, and of love, and of self-restraint.
ου γαρ εδωκεν ημιν ο θεοσ πνευμα δειλιασ αλλα δυναμεωσ και αγαπησ και σωφρονισμου
8 And so, do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me, his prisoner. Instead, collaborate with the Gospel in accord with the virtue of God,
μη ουν επαισχυνθησ το μαρτυριον του κυριου ημων μηδε εμε τον δεσμιον αυτου αλλα συγκακοπαθησον τω ευαγγελιω κατα δυναμιν θεου
9 who has freed us and has called us to his holy vocation, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the ages of time. (aiōnios g166)
του σωσαντοσ ημασ και καλεσαντοσ κλησει αγια ου κατα τα εργα ημων αλλα κατ ιδιαν προθεσιν και χαριν την δοθεισαν ημιν εν χριστω ιησου προ χρονων αιωνιων (aiōnios g166)
10 And this has now been made manifest by the illumination of our Savior Jesus Christ, who certainly has destroyed death, and who has also illuminated life and incorruption through the Gospel.
φανερωθεισαν δε νυν δια τησ επιφανειασ του σωτηροσ ημων ιησου χριστου καταργησαντοσ μεν τον θανατον φωτισαντοσ δε ζωην και αφθαρσιαν δια του ευαγγελιου
11 Of this Gospel, I have been appointed a preacher, and an Apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
εισ ο ετεθην εγω κηρυξ και αποστολοσ και διδασκαλοσ εθνων
12 For this reason, I also suffer these things. But I am not confounded. For I know in whom I have believed, and I am certain that he has the power to preserve what was entrusted to me, unto that day.
δι ην αιτιαν και ταυτα πασχω αλλ ουκ επαισχυνομαι οιδα γαρ ω πεπιστευκα και πεπεισμαι οτι δυνατοσ εστιν την παραθηκην μου φυλαξαι εισ εκεινην την ημεραν
13 Hold to the kind of sound words that you have heard from me in the faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
υποτυπωσιν εχε υγιαινοντων λογων ων παρ εμου ηκουσασ εν πιστει και αγαπη τη εν χριστω ιησου
14 Guard the good entrusted to you through the Holy Spirit, who lives within us.
την καλην παραθηκην φυλαξον δια πνευματοσ αγιου του ενοικουντοσ εν ημιν
15 Know this: that all those who are in Asia have turned away from me, among whom are Phigellus and Hermogenes.
οιδασ τουτο οτι απεστραφησαν με παντεσ οι εν τη ασια ων εστιν φυγελοσ και ερμογενησ
16 May the Lord have mercy on the house of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed me, and he has not been ashamed of my chains.
δωη ελεοσ ο κυριοσ τω ονησιφορου οικω οτι πολλακισ με ανεψυξεν και την αλυσιν μου ουκ επαισχυνθη
17 Instead, when he had arrived in Rome, he anxiously sought me and found me.
αλλα γενομενοσ εν ρωμη σπουδαιοτερον εζητησεν με και ευρεν
18 May the Lord grant to him to obtain mercy from the Lord in that day. And you know well in how many ways he has ministered to me at Ephesus.
δωη αυτω ο κυριοσ ευρειν ελεοσ παρα κυριου εν εκεινη τη ημερα και οσα εν εφεσω διηκονησεν βελτιον συ γινωσκεισ
