Seconda lettera a Timoteo - 2 Timothy 1

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Παυλος, αποστολος Ιησου Χριστου δια θεληματος Θεου κατα την επαγγελιαν της ζωης της εν Χριστω Ιησου,	1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, in accord with the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,
2 προς Τιμοθεον το αγαπητον τεκνον? ειη χαρις, ελεος, ειρηνη απο Θεου Πατρος και Χριστου Ιησου του Κυριου ημων.	2 to Timothy, most beloved son. Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and from Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Ευχαριστω τον Θεον, τον οποιον λατρευω απο προγονων μετα καθαρας συνειδησεως, οτι αδιαλειπτως σε ενθυμουμαι εν ταις δεησεσι μου νυκτα και ημεραν,	3 I give thanks to God, whom I serve, as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. For without ceasing I hold the remembrance of you in my prayers, night and day,
4 επιποθων να σε ιδω, ενθυμουμενος τα δακρυα σου, δια να εμπλησθω χαρας,	4 desiring to see you, recalling your tears so as to be filled with joy,
5 ανακαλων εις την μνημην μου την εν σοι ανυποκριτον πιστιν, ητις πρωτον κατωκησεν εν τη μαμμη σου Λωιδι και εν τη μητρι σου Ευνικη, ειμαι δε πεπεισμενος οτι και εν σοι.	5 calling to mind the same faith, which is in you unfeigned, which also first dwelt in your grandmother, Lois, and in your mother, Eunice, and also, I am certain, in you.
6 Δια την οποιαν αιτιαν σε υπενθυμιζω να αναζωπυρης το χαρισμα του Θεου, το οποιον ειναι εν σοι δια της επιθεσεως των χειρων μου?	6 Because of this, I admonish you to revive the grace of God, which is in you by the imposition of my hands.
7 διοτι δεν εδωκεν εις ημας ο Θεος πνευμα δειλιας, αλλα δυναμεως και αγαπης και σωφρονισμου.	7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of virtue, and of love, and of self-restraint.
8 Μη αισχυνθης λοιπον την μαρτυριαν του Κυριου ημων μηδε εμε τον δεσμιον αυτου, αλλα συγκακοπαθησον μετα του ευαγγελιου με την δυναμιν του Θεου,	8 And so, do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me, his prisoner. Instead, collaborate with the Gospel in accord with the virtue of God,
9 οστις εσωσεν ημας και εκαλεσε με κλησιν αγιαν, ουχι κατα τα εργα ημων, αλλα κατα την εαυτου προθεσιν και χαριν, την δοθεισαν εις ημας εν Χριστω Ιησου προ χρονων αιωνιων,	9 who has freed us and has called us to his holy vocation, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus, before the ages of time.
10 φανερωθεισαν δε τωρα δια της επιφανειας του Σωτηρος ημων Ιησου Χριστου, οστις κατηργησε μεν τον θανατον, εφερε δε εις φως την ζωην και την αφθαρσιαν δια του ευαγγελιου,	10 And this has now been made manifest by the illumination of our Savior Jesus Christ, who certainly has destroyed death, and who has also illuminated life and incorruption through the Gospel.
11 εις το οποιον εταχθην εγω κηρυξ και αποστολος και διδασκαλος των εθνων.	11 Of this Gospel, I have been appointed a preacher, and an Apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 Δια την οποιαν αιτιαν και πασχω ταυτα, πλην δεν επαισχυνομαι? διοτι εξευρω εις τινα επιστευσα, και ειμαι πεπεισμενος οτι ειναι δυνατος να φυλαξη την παρακαταθηκην μου μεχρις εκεινης της ημερας.	12 For this reason, I also suffer these things. But I am not confounded. For I know in whom I have believed, and I am certain that he has the power to preserve what was entrusted to me, unto that day.
13 Κρατει το υποδειγμα των υγιαινοντων λογων, τους οποιους ηκουσας παρ' εμου, μετα πιστεως και αγαπης της εν Χριστω Ιησου.	13 Hold to the kind of sound words that you have heard from me in the faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Την καλην παρακαταθηκην φυλαξον δια του Πνευματος του Αγιου του ενοικουντος εν ημιν.	14 Guard the good entrusted to you through the Holy Spirit, who lives within us.
15 Εξευρεις τουτο, οτι με απεστραφησαν παντες οι εν τη Ασια, εκ των οποιων ειναι ο Φυγελλος και ο Ερμογενης.	15 Know this: that all those who are in Asia have turned away from me, among whom are Phigellus and Hermogenes.
16 Ειθε ο Κυριος να δωση ελεος εις τον οικον του Ονησιφορου, διοτι πολλακις με παρηγορησε και δεν επησχυνθη την αλυσιν μου,	16 May the Lord have mercy on the house of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed me, and he has not been ashamed of my chains.
17 αλλ' οτε ηλθεν εις την Ρωμην, με εζητησε μετα σπουδης πολλης και με ευρεν?	17 Instead, when he had arrived in Rome, he anxiously sought me and found me.
18 ειθε ο Κυριος να δωση εις αυτον να ευρη ελεος παρα Κυριου εν εκεινη τη ημερα? και οσας διακονιας εκαμεν εν Εφεσω, συ εξευρεις καλητερα.	18 May the Lord grant to him to obtain mercy from the Lord in that day. And you know well in how many ways he has ministered to me at Ephesus.
