¹Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope;

¹Anigoo Bawlos ah oo rasuulkii Ciise Masiix ku ah amarka Ilaaha Badbaadiyeheenna ah iyo Ciise Masiix oo rajadeenna ah,

²to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

²waxaan warqaddan u qorayaa Timoteyos oo xagga iimaanka ku ah wiilkayga runta ah. Nimco iyo naxariis iyo nabadu ha kaaga yimaadeen Ilaaha Aabbaha ah iyo Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix.

³As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,

³Sidaan kugu waaniyey markaan Makedoniya tegayay ayaan haatanna kugu waaninayaa inaad Efesos sii joogtid oo aad kuwo ku amartid inayan cilmi kale dadka barin,

⁴neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes, rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith—

⁴ama ayan dhegaysanin sheekooyin iyo abtirsiinyada aan dhammaadka lahayn oo keena su'aalo intay hor marin lahaayeen talada Ilaah oo rumaysadka ku jirta.

⁵but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and sincere faith;

⁵Laakiin amarka dhammaadkiisu waa jacayl ka soo baxa qalbi daahir ah iyo niyo wanaagsan iyo rumaysad aan labaweji lahayn.

⁶from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;

⁶Waxyaalahan qaar baa seegay, oo waxay ku leexdeen hadal aan micne lahayn,

⁷desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.

⁷oo waxay doonayaan inay noqdaan macallimiinta sharciga in kastoo ayan garanayn waxay yidhaahdaan ama waxay ku xaqiiqeeyaan.

⁸But we know that the law is good, if a man uses it lawfully,

⁸Waxaynu og nahay in sharcigu wanaagsan yahay haddii loo isticmaalo si sharciga ku qumman.

⁹as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

⁹Sidaynu u og nahay, sharciga looma samayn nin xaq ah, laakiin waxaa loo sameeyey sharcilaawayaasha, iyo caasiyiinta, iyo cibaadalaawayaasha, iyo dembilayaasha, iyo kuwa aan quduuska ahayn, iyo kuwa nijaasta ah, iyo kuwa aabbahood dila, iyo kuwa hooyadood dila, iyo gacankudhiiglayaasha,

¹⁰for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;

¹⁰iyo kuwa sinaysta, iyo khaniisiinta, iyo kuwa dadka xada, iyo beenlowyada, iyo kuwa beenta ku dhaarta, iyo hadday jiraan wax kaleeto oo ka gees ah cilmiga runta ah,

¹¹according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

¹¹oo ah sida injiilka ammaanta Ilaaha barakada leh oo laygu ammaaneeyey.

¹²And I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

¹²Waxaan ku mahad naqayaa kan xoogga i siiyey oo ah Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix, waayo, wuxuu igu tiriyey mid aamin ah intuu hawshiisa ii doortay,

¹³although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

¹³in kastoo aan hore u ahaan jiray mid dadka caaya oo silciya, oo dhiba, laakiin waa la ii naxariistay, waayo, aqoonla'aan baan ku sameeyey, anigoo aan rumaysanayn.

¹⁴The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

¹⁴Nimcada Rabbigeenna waxay aad iyo aad ula badatay rumaysadka iyo jacaylka ku jira Ciise Masiix.

¹⁵The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

¹⁵Hadalkanu waa run, waana mid istaahila in la wada aqbalo, in Ciise Masiix dunida u yimid inuu badbaadiyo dembilayaasha anoo ah kan ugu daran.

¹⁶However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life.

¹⁶Laakiin sababtaas daraaddeed waa la ii naxariistay in, anigoo ah kan ugu daran, Ciise Masiix iga muujiyo dulqaadashadiisa oo dhan, inaan masaal u noqdo kuwa hadda dabadeed isaga rumaysan doona inay nolol weligeed ah helaan.

¹⁷Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

¹⁷Boqorka daa'imiska ah, oo aan dhiman karin, oo aan la arki karin, oo ah Ilaaha keligiis ah, maamuus iyo ammaanu ha u ahaadeen weligiis iyo weligiis. Aamiin.

¹⁸This instruction I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to you, that by them you may wage the good warfare;

¹⁸Wiilkaygii Timoteyosow, waxaan kugu ammaanaynayaa amarkan oo ah sidii waxyaalihii hore laguugu sheegay, inaad iyaga dagaal wanaagsan ku dagaallantid,

¹⁹holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;

¹⁹adigoo haysta iimaan iyo qalbi wanaagsan. Waxyaalahaas dadka qaarkood way iska tuureen, oo waxay iimaankooda ka dhigeen sida doonni burburtay.Waxaana ka mid ah Humenayos iyo Aleksanderos, oo aan Shayddaan u dhiibay si ay u bartaan inayan wax caayin.

²⁰of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
