2 Timotawus 1
1 Bulus, kunan kaduran Kristi Yesu unuzun yinnu Kutelle, udofinu nalikawalin lai na udin nanya Kristi Yesu,
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,
2 udu kitin Timitawus, gono nsuu: Ubolu Kutelle, Ulanzun Kunekune, nin lissosin limang unuzu kiti Kutelle Ucif nin Yesu Kristi Cikilari bit.
to Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 In godo Kutelle, ulenge na ndinghe sujada ucizunu nacif nacif ning, nin kpilizu ulauwari ndin lizunu ninghinu nanya nlira ning. Kitik nin kirin.
I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day
4 Indi nin suu iyene minu, bara nna kulu nin nayi abo. Nlizino inmizin mine.
longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be filled with joy;
5 Indin lizunu nin yinnu sa uyenu fe un kiden, ulenge na uwa di nanyan kaafe kishono Loyis a unafe Enus. Meng tutung in yinna udi lii nanyafe wang.
having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you, which lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, in you also.
6 Ilemon na itawari une ndin lizinfi ninwo ukuru ususo ula nfillu Kutelle nanyafe unuzu tardun cara ning.
For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
7 Bara na Kutelle nani nari Uruhu fiu ba, ama un likara nin suu a uteru nibinayi nsu nimon icine.
For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
8 Bara nani yenje uwa lanza ncin bellun bellen Cikilari bite, sa unaning, Bulus, kucin. Na koso nanya niu nliru ulaun nin likara Kutelle.
Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,
9 Urika na ana tuccu nari anin yicila nari nin yiculu ulau. Ana sunane, na bari nitwa bit ba, ama bara unme ukyewe nin bolu Kutelle. Awa ninari ile imone nanyan Kristi Yesu akubi dutu ucizunu wang. (aiōnios g166)
who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the times of the ages (aiōnios g166),
10 Ama nene utucu Kutelle nnuzu kanang nanyan dakin nan Tucu Kristi Yesu. Kristiari nati ligan nkul anin danin lai ulenge na udinin ligang ba udu nkanang nanyan liru ulau.
but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the Good News.
11 Bara ile imone, iwati unan wazi, unan katwa, nin nan dursuzu.
For this I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 Bara ka katwawe meng din niu imon ilele. Ama na ndin lanzu ncin ba, bara inyirughe ame ulenge na nyinna ninghe. Meng dinin likara kibinai nwo ame wasa aceo ileli imone na nna yinnin ninghe nnaghe udu loli lire.
For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that day.
13 Ceo kulap nidura nicine na una lanza kiti ning, nin yinnu sa uyenu a usuu ulenge na udi nanyan Kristi Yesu.
Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Imon icine ilenge na Kutelle na ni nacara, kese ining libaun Ruhu ulau, urika na udi nanghirik.
That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
15 Uyiru nin nilenge imon, nwo vat nalenge na issosin Asiya na kpilayi kimal. Nnyan mine a pajelus nin n Hemojines.
This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 Na Kutelle ti nkunekune me kilarin Onismus, bara kolome liri asa anayi nmang na tutung awa lanza ncin tishot ninghe ba.
May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,
17 Kube na awadin Rum, awa pizurui kang, anin seyi.
but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently and found me
18 Na Kutelle tighe ase nkunekune kiti me liri lole. Tutung vat tibauto na awa buni in Afisu, fe yiru gegeme.
(the Lord grant to him to find the Lord’s mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.
