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 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 son: grace, mercy, 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 a pure conscience, that I keep up a constant remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;
4 Indi nin suu iyene minu, bara nna kulu nin nayi abo. Nlizino inmizin mine.
earnestly desiring to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I might 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.
recalling to my memory the unfeigned faith which was in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that it is in thee also.
6 Ilemon na itawari une ndin lizinfi ninwo ukuru ususo ula nfillu Kutelle nanyafe unuzu tardun cara ning.
For which cause I remind thee that thou fan into a flame the divine gift, which is in thee by the imposition 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 a spirit of fear; but of courage, and of love, and of sobriety.
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 suffer affliction with me in the gospel, supported by 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 time had a beginning; (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 brought to light life and immortality by the gospel:
11 Bara ile imone, iwati unan wazi, unan katwa, nin nan dursuzu.
whereunto 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 which cause also I suffer these things; but I am not ashamed: for I know on whom I have placed my confidence, and am persuaded that he is mighty to guard my deposit unto the great day.
13 Ceo kulap nidura nicine na una lanza kiti ning, nin yinnu sa uyenu a usuu ulenge na udi nanyan Kristi Yesu.
Model thy teaching according to the pattern of the sound discourses, which thou hast 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.
The glorious deposit committed to thy trust, guard by the Holy Ghost who dwelleth in us.
15 Uyiru nin nilenge imon, nwo vat nalenge na issosin Asiya na kpilayi kimal. Nnyan mine a pajelus nin n Hemojines.
Knowest thou this, that all those of Asia have deserted me? among 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 grant mercy unto the household of Onesiphorus because he frequently was a refreshment to my soul, and was not ashamed of my chain:
17 Kube na awadin Rum, awa pizurui kang, anin seyi.
but, when he was at Rome, he sought me out 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 that he may find mercy with the Lord in the great day; and how liberally he ministered to me at Ephesus, thou knowest better than any other person.
