¹Wherefore no longer forbearing, we thought good to be left in Athens alone,

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

²and did send Timotheus — our brother, and a ministrant of God, and our fellow-workman in the good news of the 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 one be moved in these tribulations, for yourselves have known that for this we are set,

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

⁴for even when we were with you, we said to you beforehand, that we are about to suffer tribulation, as also it did come to pass, and ye have known [it];

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

⁵because of this also, I, no longer forbearing, did send to know your faith, lest he who is tempting did tempt you, and in vain might be our labour.

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.

⁶And now Timotheus having come unto us from you, and having declared good news to us of your faith and love, and that ye have a good remembrance of us always, desiring much 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;

⁷because of this we were comforted, brethren, over you, in all our tribulation and necessity, through your faith,

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

⁸because now we live, if ye may stand fast in the Lord;

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

⁹for what thanks are we able to recompense to God for you, for all the joy with which we do joy because of you in the presence of 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 exceedingly beseeching, that we might see your face, and perfect the things lacking in your faith.

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

¹¹And our God and Father Himself, 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 you the Lord cause to increase and to abound in the love to one another, and to all, even as we also to 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 establishing your hearts blameless in sanctification before our God and Father, in the presence 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.
