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 by the will of God, according to the promise of 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] dearly beloved son: 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 from [my] forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
4 Indi nin suu iyene minu, bara nna kulu nin nayi abo. Nlizino inmizin mine.
Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy 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.
When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.
6 Ilemon na itawari une ndin lizinfi ninwo ukuru ususo ula nfillu Kutelle nanyafe unuzu tardun cara ning.
Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting 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 hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
8 Bara nani yenje uwa lanza ncin bellun bellen Cikilari bite, sa unaning, Bulus, kucin. Na koso nanya niu nliru ulaun nin likara Kutelle.
Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel 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 hath saved us, and called [us] with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, (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 is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:
11 Bara ile imone, iwati unan wazi, unan katwa, nin nan dursuzu.
Where unto I am appointed a preacher, and 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 the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto 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 fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of 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 unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us.
15 Uyiru nin nilenge imon, nwo vat nalenge na issosin Asiya na kpilayi kimal. Nnyan mine a pajelus nin n Hemojines.
This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 Na Kutelle ti nkunekune me kilarin Onismus, bara kolome liri asa anayi nmang na tutung awa lanza ncin tishot ninghe ba.
The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft 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 out very 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 unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.
