¹Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it good to be left at Athens alone;

¹Sidaas daraaddeed markii aannu is-hayn kari waynay, way nala wanaagsanayd inaannu keliyahaantayo Ateenay ku hadhno;

²And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith:

²oo waxaannu idiin soo dirnay walaalkayo Timoteyos, oo ah midiidinka Ilaah xagga injiilka Masiixa, inuu idin xoogeeyo oo idin dhiirrigeliyo xagga rumaysadkiinna,

³That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.

³inaan dhibaatooyinkani ninna dhaqdhaqaajin, waayo, idinka qudhiinnuba waad ogsoon tihiin in tan lanoo doortay.

⁴For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.

⁴Waayo, markii aannu idinla joognay, horaannu idiinku sii sheegnay inaannu dhibtoonayno; waana sida ay noqotay, idinkuna waad og tihiin.

⁵For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.

⁵Sababtaas daraaddeed markii aan is-hayn kari waayay, waxaan idiinku soo cid diray inaan rumaysadkiinna ogaado, waaba intaasoo kii wax jirrabi jiray idin jirrabay oo hawshayadii wax aan waxtar lahayn noqotaye.

⁶But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:

⁶Laakiinse haatan markii Timoteyos nooga kiin yimid, wuxuu noo keenay warka wanaagsan oo ku saabsan rumaysadkiinna iyo jacaylkiinna, iyo inaad kol kasta si wanaagsan noo xusuusataan idinkoo xiiso u qaba inaad na aragtaan sida aannu annaguba xiiso ugu qabno inaannu idin aragno;

⁷Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our affliction and distress by your faith:

⁷sababtaas daraaddeed, walaalayaalow, dhibkayagii iyo qaxarkayagii oo dhan waxaannu kaga qalbi qabownay xaggiinna, rumaysadkiinna aawadiis;

⁸For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.

⁸maxaa yeelay, haatan annagu waa nool nahay haddaad xagga Rabbiga ku xoogaysataan.

⁹For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God;

⁹Waayo, mahad intee le'eg baannu Ilaah ugu naqi karnaa idinka aawadiin iyo farxaddii oo dhan oo aannu ku faraxnay Ilaahayaga hortiisa idinka aawadiin?

¹⁰Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?

¹⁰Habeen iyo maalinba aad iyo aad baannu Ilaah u baryaynaa inaannu wejigiinna aragno oo aannu dhammaystirno waxa ka dhiman rumaysadkiinna.

¹¹Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you.

¹¹Haddaba Ilaaha ah Aabbeheenna iyo Rabbigeenna Ciise qudhiisu jidkayaga xaggiinna ha ku soo toosiyeen.

¹²And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

¹²Rabbigu ha idiin kordhiyo oo ha idiin badiyo jacaylka midkiinba midka kale u qabo iyo dadka kale oo dhanba, sida aan annaguba idiin jecel nahay,inuu xoogeeyo qalbiyadiinna iyagoo aan ceeb lahayn oo quduusnimo ku jira Ilaaheenna oo ah Aabbeheenna hortiisa, goortii Rabbigeenna Ciise la yimaado quduusiintiisa oo dhan.

¹³To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.

¹³inuu xoogeeyo qalbiyadiinna iyagoo aan ceeb lahayn oo quduusnimo ku jira Ilaaheenna oo ah Aabbeheenna hortiisa, goortii Rabbigeenna Ciise la yimaado quduusiintiisa oo dhan.
