2 tīmathiyaḥ 1
1 khrīṣṭena yīśunā yā jīvanasya pratijñā tāmadhīśvarasyecchayā yīśoḥ khrīṣṭasyaikaḥ preritaḥ paulo'haṁ svakīyaṁ priyaṁ dharmmaputraṁ tīmathiyaṁ prati patraṁ likhāmi|
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, according to a promise of life that [is] in Christ Jesus,
2 tāta īśvaro'smākaṁ prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭaśca tvayi prasādaṁ dayāṁ śāntiñca kriyāstāṁ|
to Timotheus, beloved child: Grace, kindness, peace, from God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord!
3 aham ā pūrvvapuruṣāt yam īśvaraṁ pavitramanasā seve taṁ dhanyaṁ vadanaṁ kathayāmi, aham ahorātraṁ prārthanāsamaye tvāṁ nirantaraṁ smarāmi|
I am thankful to God, whom I serve from progenitors in a pure conscience, that unceasingly I have remembrance concerning thee in my supplications night and day,
4 yaśca viśvāsaḥ prathame loyīnāmikāyāṁ tava mātāmahyām unīkīnāmikāyāṁ mātari cātiṣṭhat tavāntare'pi tiṣṭhatīti manye
desiring greatly to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that with joy I may be filled,
5 tava taṁ niṣkapaṭaṁ viśvāsaṁ manasi kurvvan tavāśrupātaṁ smaran yathānandena praphallo bhaveyaṁ tadarthaṁ tava darśanam ākāṅkṣe|
taking remembrance of the unfeigned faith that is in thee, that dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that also in thee.
6 ato heto rmama hastārpaṇena labdho ya īśvarasya varastvayi vidyate tam ujjvālayituṁ tvāṁ smārayāmi|
For which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God that is in thee through the putting on of my hands,
7 yata īśvaro'smabhyaṁ bhayajanakam ātmānam adattvā śaktipremasatarkatānām ākaram ātmānaṁ dattavān|
for God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind;
8 ataevāsmākaṁ prabhumadhi tasya vandidāsaṁ māmadhi ca pramāṇaṁ dātuṁ na trapasva kintvīśvarīyaśaktyā susaṁvādasya kṛte duḥkhasya sahabhāgī bhava|
therefore thou mayest not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but do thou suffer evil along with the good news according to the power of God,
9 so'smān paritrāṇapātrāṇi kṛtavān pavitreṇāhvānenāhūtavāṁśca; asmatkarmmahetuneti nahi svīyanirūpāṇasya prasādasya ca kṛte tat kṛtavān| sa prasādaḥ sṛṣṭeḥ pūrvvakāle khrīṣṭena yīśunāsmabhyam adāyi, (aiōnios g166)
who did save us, and did call with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, that was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the times of the ages, (aiōnios g166)
10 kintvadhunāsmākaṁ paritrātu ryīśoḥ khrīṣṭasyāgamanena prākāśata| khrīṣṭo mṛtyuṁ parājitavān susaṁvādena ca jīvanam amaratāñca prakāśitavān|
and was made manifest now through the manifestation of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who indeed did abolish death, and did enlighten life and immortality through the good news,
11 tasya ghoṣayitā dūtaścānyajātīyānāṁ śikṣakaścāhaṁ niyukto'smi|
to which I was placed a preacher and an apostle, and a teacher of nations,
12 tasmāt kāraṇāt mamāyaṁ kleśo bhavati tena mama lajjā na jāyate yato'haṁ yasmin viśvasitavān tamavagato'smi mahādinaṁ yāvat mamopanidhe rgopanasya śaktistasya vidyata iti niścitaṁ jānāmi|
for which cause also these things I suffer, but I am not ashamed, for I have known in whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able that which I have committed to him to guard — to that day.
13 hitadāyakānāṁ vākyānām ādarśarūpeṇa mattaḥ śrutāḥ khrīṣṭe yīśau viśvāsapremnoḥ kathā dhāraya|
The pattern hold thou of sound words, which from me thou didst hear, in faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus;
14 aparam asmadantarvāsinā pavitreṇātmanā tāmuttamām upanidhiṁ gopaya|
the good thing committed guard thou through the Holy Spirit that is dwelling in us;
15 āśiyādeśīyāḥ sarvve māṁ tyaktavanta iti tvaṁ jānāsi teṣāṁ madhye phūgillo harmmaginiśca vidyete|
thou hast known this, that they did turn from me — all those in Asia, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes;
16 prabhuranīṣipharasya parivārān prati kṛpāṁ vidadhātu yataḥ sa punaḥ puna rmām āpyāyitavān
may the Lord give kindness to the house of Onesiphorus, because many times he did refresh me, and of my chain was not ashamed,
17 mama śṛṅkhalena na trapitvā romānagare upasthitisamaye yatnena māṁ mṛgayitvā mamoddeśaṁ prāptavān|
but being in Rome, very diligently he sought me, and found;
18 ato vicāradine sa yathā prabhoḥ kṛpābhājanaṁ bhavet tādṛśaṁ varaṁ prabhustasmai deyāt| iphiṣanagare'pi sa kati prakārai rmām upakṛtavān tat tvaṁ samyag vetsi|
may the Lord give to him to find kindness from the Lord in that day; and how many things in Ephesus he did minister thou dost very well know.
