1 Ko au Paula, ko e ʻaposetolo ʻa Sisu Kalaisi, ʻi he fekau ʻae ʻOtua ko hotau Fakamoʻui, mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ko hotau ʻamanaki leleiʻanga;

Paulus Apostolus Iesu Christi secundum imperium Dei Salvatoris nostri, et Christi Iesu spei nostræ:

2 Ko e ʻaloʻofa, mo e ʻofa mataʻataʻatā pe, mo e melino, mei he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai, mo Sisu Kalaisi ko hotau ʻEiki; kia Timote, ko hoku foha moʻoni ʻi he tui.

Timotheo dilecto filio in fide. Gratia, misericordia, et pax a Deo Patre, et Christo Iesu Domino nostro.

3 ‌ʻO hangē ko ʻeku kole kiate koe ke ke nofo pe ʻi ʻEfesō, ʻi heʻeku ʻalu ki Masitōnia, koeʻuhi ke ke fekaua ʻae niʻihi ke ʻoua te nau ako ʻaki ha akonaki kehe,

Sicut rogavi te ut remaneres Ephesi cum irem in Macedoniam, ut denunciares quibusdam ne aliter docerent,

4 Ke ʻoua foki ʻe tokanga ki he ngaahi talatupuʻa mo e hohoko taʻetuku, ʻaia ʻoku langa ai ʻae fakakikihi, kae ʻikai ko e felangaʻaki hake fakaʻotua ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he tui.

neque intenderent fabulis, et genealogiis interminatis: quæ quæstiones præstant magis quam ædificationem Dei, quæ est in fide.

5 Pea ko eni, ko hono ʻuhinga ʻoe fekau, ko e ʻofa mei he loto maʻa, mo e ʻatamai lelei, mo e tui taʻemalualoi:

Finis autem præcepti est charitas de corde puro, et conscientia bona, et fide non ficta.

6 ‌ʻAia kuo afe mei ai ʻae niʻihi, pea kuo nau he ki he ngaahi launoa;

A quibus quidam aberrantes, conversi sunt in vaniloquium,

7 ‌ʻO holi ke hoko ko e kau akonaki ʻi he fono; ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻaia ʻoku nau lau, pe ko ia ʻoku nau lea fakapapau ki ai.

volentes esse legis doctores, non intelligentes neque quæ loquuntur, neque de quibus affirmant.

8 Ka ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻoku lelei ʻae fono, ʻo kapau ʻoku ngaue ʻaonga ʻaki ia ʻe he tangata;

Scimus autem quia bona est lex, si quis ea legitime utatur:

9 ‌ʻO ʻilo eni, naʻe ʻikai ngaohi ʻae fono ki he tangata māʻoniʻoni, ka ki he kau liʻaki fono, mo e talangataʻa, mo e taʻelotu, mo e kau angahala, ki he taʻemaʻa, mo e manuki, ki he kau tāmateʻi ʻoe tamai mo e tāmateʻi ʻoe faʻē, mo e kau tāmateʻi ʻoe tangata,

sciens hoc quia lex iusto non est posita, sed iniustis, et non subditis, impiis, et peccatoribus, sceleratis, et contaminatis, parricidis, et matricidis, homicidis,

10 Ki he kau feʻauaki, kiate kinautolu ʻoku fefakaʻuliʻaki ʻakinautolu mo e kakai, ki he kau kaihaʻa tangata, ki he kau loi, ki he kau fuakava loi, pea mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku tuʻu kehe mo e akonaki totonu;

fornicariis, masculorum concubitoribus, plagiariis, mendacibus, et periuris, et si quid aliud sanæ doctrinæ adversatur,

11 ‌ʻO fakatatau mo e ongoongolelei nāunauʻia ʻoe ʻOtua monūʻia, ʻaia naʻe tuku mai ke u tauhi ia.

quæ est secundum Evangelium gloriæ beati Dei, quod creditum est mihi.

12 Pea ʻoku ou fakafetaʻi kia Kalaisi Sisu ko hotau ʻEiki, ʻaia kuo ne fakamālohiʻi au, ʻi heʻene lau au ko e angatonu, ʻo ne fakahoko au ki he ngaue;

Gratias ago ei, qui me confortavit, Christo Iesu Domino nostro, quia fidelem me existimavit, ponens in ministerio:

13 A au naʻaku lauʻikoviʻi [ia ]ʻi muʻa, mo fakatangaʻi, mo fai kovi: ka naʻaku maʻu ʻae ʻaloʻofa, he naʻaku taʻetui ko e fai ʻi he taʻeʻilo.

qui prius blasphemus fui, et persecutor, et contumeliosus: sed misericordiam Dei consecutus sum, quia ignorans feci in incredulitate.

14 Pea naʻe lahi hake ʻaupito ʻaupito ʻae ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻEiki, ʻi he tui mo e ʻofa ʻaia ʻoku ʻia Kalaisi Sisu.

Superabundavit autem gratia Domini nostri cum fide, et dilectione, quæ est in Christo Iesu.

15 Ko e tala moʻoni eni, pea ʻoku taau mo e kakai kotoa pē ke maʻu ia, naʻe hāʻele ʻa Kalaisi Sisu ki māmani ke fakamoʻui ʻae kakai angahala; pea ko hono fungani au.

Fidelis sermo, et omni acceptione dignus: quod Christus Iesus venit in hunc mundum peccatores salvos facere, quorum primus ego sum:

16 Ka koe meʻa ni naʻaku maʻu ai ʻae ʻaloʻofa, koeʻuhi ke fakahā atu ʻe Sisu Kalaisi ʻiate au, ko e fungani, ʻae kātaki ʻofa kotoa pē, pea ke u hoko ko e fakaʻilonga kiate kinautolu ʻe tui kiate ia ʻamui ki he moʻui taʻengata. (aiōnios g166)

Sed ideo misericordiam consecutus sum: ut in me primo ostenderet Christus Iesus omnem patientiam ad informationem eorum, qui credituri sunt illi, in vitam æternam. (aiōnios g166)

17 Pea ko eni, ke ʻi he Tuʻi ʻi muʻa ʻi muʻa, mo taʻemate, mo taʻehāmai, ki he ʻOtua poto taha pe, ʻae fakaʻapaʻapa mo e ongoongolelei ʻo taʻengata pea taʻengata. ʻEmeni. (aiōn g165)

Regi autem sæculorum immortali, invisibili, soli Deo honor, et gloria in sæcula sæculorum. Amen. (aiōn g165)

18 E foha ko Timote, ʻoku ou tuku atu ʻae fekau ni kiate koe, ʻo fakatatau mo e ngaahi kikite ʻi muʻa naʻe kau kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke ke faʻa fai mei ai ʻae tau lelei:

Hoc præceptum commendo tibi fili Timothee, secundum præcedentes in te prophetias, ut milites in illis bonam militiam,

19 ‌ʻO puke maʻu ʻae tui, mo e ʻatamai lelei; ʻaia kuo siʻaki ʻe he niʻihi, pea ko ʻenau tui kuo tūkia ʻo mate:

habens fidem, et bonam conscientiam, quam quidam repellentes, circa fidem naufragaverunt:

20 ‌ʻAia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa ʻAiminia mo ʻAlekisānita; kuo u tukuange ʻakinaua kia Sētane, ke na ʻilo ke ʻoua te na lauʻikovi.

ex quibus est Hymenæus, et Alexander: quos tradidi Satanæ, ut discant non blasphemare.
