2 ne tutuma Timoseewo muganda waffe era omuweereza wa Katonda mu njiri ya Kristo, okubanyweza n'okubasanyusa olw'okukkiriza kwammwe;
3 omuntu yenna aleme okusagaasagana mu kubonaabona kuno; kubanga mwekka mumanyi ng'ekyo kye twateekerwawo.
4 Kubanga mazima, bwe twali gye muli, twababuulira olubereberye nga tugenda okubonaabona; era bwe kyali bwe kityo era nga bwe mumanyi.
5 Nange kyennava ntuma, bwe ssaayinza kugumiikiriza nate, ndyoke mmanye okukkiriza kwammwe; oba nga mpozzi omukemi oyo yabakema okufuba kwaffe ne kuba okw'obwereere.
6 Naye Timoseewo kaakano bwe yajja gye tuli ng'ava gye muli, n'atuleetera ebigambo ebirungi eby'okukkiriza n'okwagala kwammwe, era nga mutujjukira bulungi ennaku zonna, nga mutulumirwa okutulaba, era nga ffe bwe tubalumirwa mmwe;
