GNT

1 παῦλος ἀπόστολος χριστοῦ ἰησοῦ διὰ θελήματος θεοῦ κατ᾽ ἐπαγγελίαν ζωῆς τῆς ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ

2 τιμοθέῳ ἀγαπητῶ τέκνῳ· χάρις, ἔλεος, εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ χριστοῦ ἰησοῦ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν.

3 χάριν ἔχω τῶ θεῶ, ᾧ λατρεύω ἀπὸ προγόνων ἐν καθαρᾷ συνειδήσει, ὡς ἀδιάλειπτον ἔχω τὴν περὶ σοῦ μνείαν ἐν ταῖς δεήσεσίν μου νυκτὸς καὶ ἡμέρας,

4 ἐπιποθῶν σε ἰδεῖν, μεμνημένος σου τῶν δακρύων, ἵνα χαρᾶς πληρωθῶ,

5 ὑπόμνησιν λαβὼν τῆς ἐν σοὶ ἀνυποκρίτου πίστεως, ἥτις ἐνῴκησεν πρῶτον ἐν τῇ μάμμῃ σου λωΐδι καὶ τῇ μητρί σου εὐνίκῃ, πέπεισμαι δὲ ὅτι καὶ ἐν σοί.

6 δι᾽ ἣν αἰτίαν ἀναμιμνῄσκω σε ἀναζωπυρεῖν τὸ χάρισμα τοῦ θεοῦ, ὅ ἐστιν ἐν σοὶ διὰ τῆς ἐπιθέσεως τῶν χειρῶν μου·

7 οὐ γὰρ ἔδωκεν ἡμῖν ὁ θεὸς πνεῦμα δειλίας, ἀλλὰ δυνάμεως καὶ ἀγάπης καὶ σωφρονισμοῦ.

8 μὴ οὗν ἐπαισχυνθῇς τὸ μαρτύριον τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν μηδὲ ἐμὲ τὸν δέσμιον αὐτοῦ, ἀλλὰ συγκακοπάθησον τῶ εὐαγγελίῳ κατὰ δύναμιν θεοῦ,

9 τοῦ σώσαντος ἡμᾶς καὶ καλέσαντος κλήσει ἁγίᾳ, οὐ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα ἡμῶν ἀλλὰ κατὰ ἰδίαν πρόθεσιν καὶ χάριν, τὴν δοθεῖσαν ἡμῖν ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ πρὸ χρόνων αἰωνίων,

10 φανερωθεῖσαν δὲ νῦν διὰ τῆς ἐπιφανείας τοῦ σωτῆρος ἡμῶν χριστοῦ ἰησοῦ, καταργήσαντος μὲν τὸν θάνατον φωτίσαντος δὲ ζωὴν καὶ ἀφθαρσίαν διὰ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου,

11 εἰς ὃ ἐτέθην ἐγὼ κῆρυξ καὶ ἀπόστολος καὶ διδάσκαλος.

12 δι᾽ ἣν αἰτίαν καὶ ταῦτα πάσχω, ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ ἐπαισχύνομαι, οἶδα γὰρ ᾧ πεπίστευκα, καὶ πέπεισμαι ὅτι δυνατός ἐστιν τὴν παραθήκην μου φυλάξαι εἰς ἐκείνην τὴν ἡμέραν.

13 ὑποτύπωσιν ἔχε ὑγιαινόντων λόγων ὧν παρ᾽ ἐμοῦ ἤκουσας ἐν πίστει καὶ ἀγάπῃ τῇ ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ·

14 τὴν καλὴν παραθήκην φύλαξον διὰ πνεύματος ἁγίου τοῦ ἐνοικοῦντος ἐν ἡμῖν.

15 οἶδας τοῦτο, ὅτι ἀπεστράφησάν με πάντες οἱ ἐν τῇ ἀσίᾳ, ὧν ἐστιν φύγελος καὶ ἑρμογένης.

16 δῴη ἔλεος ὁ κύριος τῶ ὀνησιφόρου οἴκῳ, ὅτι πολλάκις με ἀνέψυξεν καὶ τὴν ἅλυσίν μου οὐκ ἐπαισχύνθη,

17 ἀλλὰ γενόμενος ἐν ῥώμῃ σπουδαίως ἐζήτησέν με καὶ εὖρεν

18 _ δῴη αὐτῶ ὁ κύριος εὑρεῖν ἔλεος παρὰ κυρίου ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ _ καὶ ὅσα ἐν ἐφέσῳ διηκόνησεν, βέλτιον σὺ γινώσκεις.

1  Paul,³⁹⁷² an apostle⁶⁵² of Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ by¹²²³ the will²³⁰⁷ of God,²³¹⁶ according²⁵⁹⁶ to the promise¹⁸⁶⁰ of life²²²² which³⁵⁸⁸ is in¹⁷²² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus,²⁴²⁴

2  To Timothy,⁵⁰⁹⁵ my dearly beloved²⁷ son:⁵⁰⁴³ Grace,⁵⁴⁸⁵ mercy,¹⁶⁵⁶ and peace,¹⁵¹⁵ from⁵⁷⁵ God²³¹⁶ the Father³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus²⁴²⁴ our²²⁵⁷ Lord.²⁹⁶²

3  I thank^{2192 5485} God,²³¹⁶ whom³⁷³⁹ I serve³⁰⁰⁰ from⁵⁷⁵ my forefathers⁴²⁶⁹ with¹⁷²² pure²⁵¹³ conscience,⁴⁸⁹³ that⁵⁶¹³ without ceasing⁸⁸ I have²¹⁹² remembrance³⁴¹⁷ of⁴⁰¹² thee⁴⁶⁷⁵ in¹⁷²² my³⁴⁵⁰ prayers¹¹⁶² night³⁵⁷¹ and²⁵³² day;²²⁵⁰

4  Greatly desiring¹⁹⁷¹ to see¹⁴⁹² thee,⁴⁵⁷¹ being mindful³⁴¹⁵ of thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ tears,¹¹⁴⁴ that²⁴⁴³ I may be filled⁴¹³⁷ with joy;⁵⁴⁷⁹

5  When I call²⁹⁸³ to remembrance⁵²⁸⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ unfeigned⁵⁰⁵ faith⁴¹⁰² that³⁵⁸⁸ is in¹⁷²² thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ which³⁷⁴⁸ dwelt¹⁷⁷⁴ first⁴⁴¹² in¹⁷²² thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ grandmother³¹²⁵ Lois,³⁰⁹⁰ and²⁵³² thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ mother³³⁸⁴ Eunice;²¹³¹ and¹¹⁶¹ I am persuaded³⁹⁸² that³⁷⁵⁴ in¹⁷²² thee⁴⁶⁷¹ also.²⁵³²

6  Wherefore^{1223 3739 156} I put thee in remembrance^{363 4671} that thou stir up³²⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ gift⁵⁴⁸⁶ of God,²³¹⁶ which³⁷³⁹ is²⁰⁷⁶ in¹⁷²² thee⁴⁶⁷¹ by¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ putting on¹⁹³⁶ of my³⁴⁵⁰ hands.⁵⁴⁹⁵

7  For¹⁰⁶³ God²³¹⁶ hath not³⁷⁵⁶ given¹³²⁵ us²²⁵⁴ the spirit⁴¹⁵¹ of fear;¹¹⁶⁷ but²³⁵ of power,¹⁴¹¹ and²⁵³² of love,²⁶ and²⁵³² of a sound mind.⁴⁹⁹⁵

8  Be not³³⁶¹ thou therefore³⁷⁶⁷ ashamed¹⁸⁷⁰ of the³⁵⁸⁸ testimony³¹⁴² of our²²⁵⁷ Lord,²⁹⁶² nor³³⁶⁶ of me¹⁶⁹¹ his⁸⁴⁶ prisoner:¹¹⁹⁸ but²³⁵ be thou partaker of the afflictions⁴⁷⁷⁷ of the³⁵⁸⁸ gospel²⁰⁹⁸ according²⁵⁹⁶ to the power¹⁴¹¹ of God;²³¹⁶

9  Who hath saved⁴⁹⁸² us,²²⁴⁸ and²⁵³² called²⁵⁶⁴ us with a holy⁴⁰ calling,²⁸²¹ not³⁷⁵⁶ according²⁵⁹⁶ to our²²⁵⁷ works,²⁰⁴¹ but²³⁵ according²⁵⁹⁶ to his own²³⁹⁸ purpose⁴²⁸⁶ and²⁵³² grace,⁵⁴⁸⁵ which was given¹³²⁵ us²²⁵⁴ in¹⁷²² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus²⁴²⁴ before⁴²⁵³ the world began,^{5550 166}

10  But¹¹⁶¹ is now³⁵⁶⁸ made manifest⁵³¹⁹ by¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ appearing²⁰¹⁵ of our²²⁵⁷ Savior⁴⁹⁹⁰ Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ,⁵⁵⁴⁷ who hath abolished^{2673 3303} death,²²⁸⁸ and¹¹⁶¹ hath brought life and immortality to light^{5461 2222 2532 861} through¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ gospel:²⁰⁹⁸

11  Whereunto^{1519 3739} I¹⁴⁷³ am appointed⁵⁰⁸⁷ a preacher,²⁷⁸³ and²⁵³² an apostle,⁶⁵² and²⁵³² a teacher¹³²⁰ of the Gentiles.¹⁴⁸⁴

12  For¹²²³ the which³⁷³⁹ cause¹⁵⁶ I also²⁵³² suffer³⁹⁵⁸ these things:⁵⁰²³ nevertheless²³⁵ I am not³⁷⁵⁶ ashamed:¹⁸⁷⁰ for¹⁰⁶³ I know¹⁴⁹² whom³⁷³⁹ I have believed,⁴¹⁰⁰ and²⁵³² am persuaded³⁹⁸² that³⁷⁵⁴ he is²⁰⁷⁶ able¹⁴¹⁵ to keep⁵⁴⁴² that which I have committed unto him^{3866 3450} against¹⁵¹⁹ that¹⁵⁶⁵ day.²²⁵⁰

13  Hold fast²¹⁹² the form⁵²⁹⁶ of sound⁵¹⁹⁸ words,³⁰⁵⁶ which³⁷³⁹ thou hast heard¹⁹¹ of³⁸⁴⁴ me,¹⁷⁰⁰ in¹⁷²² faith⁴¹⁰² and²⁵³² love²⁶ which³⁵⁸⁸ is in¹⁷²² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus.²⁴²⁴

14  That good thing²⁵⁷⁰ which was committed unto thee³⁸⁷² keep⁵⁴⁴² by¹²²³ the Holy⁴⁰ Ghost⁴¹⁵¹ which dwelleth¹⁷⁷⁴ in¹⁷²² us.²²⁵⁴

15  This⁵¹²⁴ thou knowest,¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ all³⁹⁵⁶ they which³⁵⁸⁸ are in¹⁷²² Asia⁷⁷³ be turned away from⁶⁵⁴ me;³¹⁶⁵ of whom³⁷³⁹ are²⁰⁷⁶ Phygellus⁵⁴³⁶ and²⁵³² Hermogenes.²⁰⁶¹

16  The³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² give¹³²⁵ mercy¹⁶⁵⁶ unto the³⁵⁸⁸ house³⁶²⁴ of Onesiphorus;³⁶⁸³ for³⁷⁵⁴ he oft⁴¹⁷⁸ refreshed⁴⁰⁴ me,³¹⁶⁵ and²⁵³² was not³⁷⁵⁶ ashamed¹⁸⁷⁰ of my³⁴⁵⁰ chain:²⁵⁴

17  But,²³⁵ when he was¹⁰⁹⁶ in¹⁷²² Rome,⁴⁵¹⁶ he sought me out^{2212 3165} very diligently,⁴⁷⁰⁶ and²⁵³² found²¹⁴⁷ me.

18  The³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² grant¹³²⁵ unto him⁸⁴⁶ that he may find²¹⁴⁷ mercy¹⁶⁵⁶ of³⁸⁴⁴ the Lord²⁹⁶² in¹⁷²² that¹⁵⁶⁵ day:²²⁵⁰ and²⁵³² in how many things³⁷⁴⁵ he ministered unto¹²⁴⁷ me at¹⁷²² Ephesus,²¹⁸¹ thou⁴⁷⁷¹ knowest¹⁰⁹⁷ very well.⁹⁵⁷

1 Paulus Apostolus Jesu Christi per voluntatem Dei, secundum promissionem vitæ, quæ est in Christo Jesu,

2 Timotheo carissimo filio: gratia, misericordia, pax a Deo Patre, et Christo Jesu Domino nostro.

3 Gratias ago Deo, cui servio a progenitoribus in conscientia pura, quod sine intermissione habeam tui memoriam in orationibus meis, nocte ac die

4 desiderans te videre, memor lacrimarum tuarum, ut gaudio implear,

5 recordationem accipiens ejus fidei, quæ est in te non ficta, quæ et habitavit primum in avia tua Loide, et matre tua Eunice, certus sum autem quod et in te.

6 Propter quam causam admoneo te ut resuscites gratiam Dei, quæ est in te per impositionem manuum mearum.

7 Non enim dedit nobis Deus spiritum timoris: sed virtutis, et dilectionis, et sobrietatis.

8 Noli itaque erubescere testimonium Domini nostri, neque me vinctum ejus: sed collabora Evangelio secundum virtutem Dei:

9 qui nos liberavit, et vocavit vocatione sua sancta, non secundum opera nostra, sed secundum propositum suum, et gratiam, quæ data est nobis in Christo Jesu ante tempora sæcularia.

10 Manifestata est autem nunc per illuminationem Salvatoris nostri Jesu Christi, qui destruxit quidem mortem, illuminavit autem vitam, et incorruptionem per Evangelium:

11 in quo positus sum ego prædicator, et Apostolus, et magister gentium.

12 Ob quam causam etiam hæc patior, sed non confundor. Scio enim cui credidi, et certus sum quia potens est depositum meum servare in illum diem.

13 Formam habe sanorum verborum, quæ a me audisti in fide, et in dilectione in Christo Jesu.

14 Bonum depositum custodi per Spiritum Sanctum, qui habitat in nobis.

15 Scis hoc, quod aversi sunt a me omnes, qui in Asia sunt, ex quibus est Phigellus, et Hermogenes.

16 Det misericordiam Dominus Onesiphori domui: quia sæpe me refrigeravit, et catenam meam non erubuit:

17 sed cum Romam venisset, sollicite me quæsivit, et invenit.

18 Det illi Dominus invenire misericordiam a Domino in illa die. Et quanta Ephesi ministravit mihi, tu melius nosti.
