| 1 بُولُسُ، رَسُولُ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ بِمَشِيئَةِ اللهِ، لأَجْلِ وَعْدِ الْحَيَاةِ الَّتِي فِي يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ. | 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus, |
|
| 2 إِلَى تِيمُوثَاوُسَ الابْنِ الْحَبِيبِ: نِعْمَةٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ وَسَلاَمٌ مِنَ اللهِ الآبِ وَالْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ رَبِّنَا. | 2 To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. |

الموهبة التي نالها تيموثاوس | |
| 3 إِنِّي أَشْكُرُ اللهَ الَّذِي أَعْبُدُهُ مِنْ أَجْدَادِي بِضَمِيرٍ طَاهِرٍ، كَمَا أَذْكُرُكَ بِلاَ انْقِطَاعٍ فِي طَلِبَاتِي لَيْلاً وَنَهَارًا، | 3 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 مُشْتَاقًا أَنْ أَرَاكَ، ذَاكِرًا دُمُوعَكَ لِكَيْ أَمْتَلِئَ فَرَحًا، | 4 Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy; |
|
| 5 إِذْ أَتَذَكَّرُ الإِيمَانَ الْعَدِيمَ الرِّيَاءِ الَّذِي فِيكَ، الَّذِي سَكَنَ أَوَّلاً فِي جَدَّتِكَ لَوْئِيسَ وَأُمِّكَ أَفْنِيكِي، وَلكِنِّي مُوقِنٌ أَنَّهُ فِيكَ أَيْضًا. | 5 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 فَلِهذَا السَّبَبِ أُذَكِّرُكَ أَنْ تُضْرِمَ أَيْضًا مَوْهِبَةَ اللهِ الَّتِي فِيكَ بِوَضْعِ يَدَيَّ،  | 6 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 لأَنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يُعْطِنَا رُوحَ الْفَشَلِ، بَلْ رُوحَ الْقُوَّةِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ وَالنُّصْحِ. | 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. |
|
| 8 فَلاَ تَخْجَلْ بِشَهَادَةِ رَبِّنَا، وَلاَ بِي أَنَا أَسِيرَهُ، بَلِ اشْتَرِكْ فِي احْتِمَالِ الْمَشَقَّاتِ لأَجْلِ الإِنْجِيلِ بِحَسَبِ قُوَّةِ اللهِ، | 8 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 الَّذِي خَلَّصَنَا وَدَعَانَا دَعْوَةً مُقَدَّسَةً، لاَ بِمُقْتَضَى أَعْمَالِنَا، بَلْ بِمُقْتَضَى الْقَصْدِ وَالنِّعْمَةِ الَّتِي أُعْطِيَتْ لَنَا فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ قَبْلَ الأَزْمِنَةِ الأَزَلِيَّةِ، | 9 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, |
|
| 10 وَإِنَّمَا أُظْهِرَتِ الآنَ بِظُهُورِ مُخَلِّصِنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، الَّذِي أَبْطَلَ الْمَوْتَ وَأَنَارَ الْحَيَاةَ وَالْخُلُودَ بِوَاسِطَةِ الإِنْجِيلِ. | 10 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 الَّذِي جُعِلْتُ أَنَا لَهُ كَارِزًا وَرَسُولاً وَمُعَلِّمًا لِلأُمَمِ. | 11 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. |
|
| 12 لِهذَا السَّبَبِ أَحْتَمِلُ هذِهِ الأُمُورَ أَيْضًا. لكِنَّنِي لَسْتُ أَخْجَلُ، لأَنَّنِي عَالِمٌ بِمَنْ آمَنْتُ، وَمُوقِنٌ أَنَّهُ قَادِرٌ أَنْ يَحْفَظَ وَدِيعَتِي إِلَى ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ. | 12 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 تَمَسَّكْ بِصُورَةِ الْكَلاَمِ الصَّحِيحِ الَّذِي سَمِعْتَهُ مِنِّي، فِي الإِيمَانِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ الَّتِي فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ. | 13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. |
|
| 14 اِحْفَظِ الْوَدِيعَةَ الصَّالِحَةَ بِالرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ السَّاكِنِ فِينَا. | 14 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth in us. |
|
| 15 أَنْتَ تَعْلَمُ هذَا أَنَّ جَمِيعَ الَّذِينَ فِي أَسِيَّا ارْتَدُّوا عَنِّي، الَّذِينَ مِنْهُمْ فِيجَلُّسُ وَهَرْمُوجَانِسُ. | 15 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. |
|
| 16 لِيُعْطِ الرَّبُّ رَحْمَةً لِبَيْتِ أُنِيسِيفُورُسَ، لأَنَّهُ مِرَارًا كَثِيرَةً أَرَاحَنِي وَلَمْ يَخْجَلْ بِسِلْسِلَتِي، | 16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: |
|
| 17 بَلْ لَمَّا كَانَ فِي رُومِيَةَ، طَلَبَنِي بِأَوْفَرِ اجْتِهَادٍ فَوَجَدَنِي. | 17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me. |
|
| 18 لِيُعْطِهِ الرَّبُّ أَنْ يَجِدَ رَحْمَةً مِنَ الرَّبِّ فِي ذلِكَ الْيَوْمِ. وَكُلُّ مَا كَانَ يَخْدِمُ فِي أَفَسُسَ أَنْتَ تَعْرِفُهُ جَيِّدًا. | 18 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. |
