Etheridge - II Timothy - 1

1:1  PAULOS, an apostle of Jeshu Meshiha by the will of Aloha, and on account of the promise of life which is in Jeshu Meshiha,

1:2  to Timotheos my beloved son: grace and mercies and peace from Aloha our Father, and from our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

1:3  I thank Aloha, whom I serve from my fathers with a pure conscience, that constantly I remember thee in my prayers of the night and of the day;

1:4  and have longed to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy:

1:5  in remembrance of thee (and) of thy true faith which dwelt first in the mother of thy mother Lois, and in thy mother Eunika, and which, I am persuaded, (is) in thee also.

1:6  On account of this I put thee in mind to keep awake the gift of Aloha, which is in thee by the laying on of my hands.

1:7  For Aloha hath not given to us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of discipline.

1:8  Wherefore be not thou ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but sustain evil with the gospel, through the power of Aloha,

1:9  who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling; not according to our works, but according to his will, and that grace of his which was given to us in Jeshu Meshiha before the time of the worlds,

1:10  and is now revealed by the revelation of our Saviour Jeshu Meshiha, who hath abolished death, and hath demonstrated life and incorruption, through the gospel,

1:11  of which I am appointed an herald and an apostle and a teacher of the nations:

1:12  on account of which I suffer these, and am not ashamed. I know in whom I have believed, and am persuaded that there is power in his hands my deposite to keep for me unto that day.

1:13  Let the outline of sound words be with thee, which thou hast heard from me, with the faith and love which are in Jeshu Meshiha:

1:14  that good deposite keep through the Spirit of Holiness who dwelleth in us.

1:15  Know this, that all those of Asia are turned from me, of whom are Phygellos and Harmogenes.

1:16  Our Lord give mercies to the house of Onesiphoros, who many times hath refreshed me, and of the chains of my bonds hath not been ashamed.

1:17  But when also he came to Ruma, with diligence he sought me, and found me.

1:18  Our Lord grant that he may find mercies with our Lord in that day: and how he ministered to me in Ephesos thou especially knowest.
