1. Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ, our hope,
|
1. Paul G3972 , an apostle G652 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 by G2596 the commandment G2003 of God G2316 our G2257 Savior G4990 , and G2532 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 , which is our G2257 hope G1680 ;
|
|
2. To Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
|
2. Unto Timothy G5095 , my own G1103 son G5043 in G1722 the faith G4102 : Grace G5485 , mercy G1656 , and peace G1515 , from G575 God G2316 our G2257 Father G3962 and G2532 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 our G2257 Lord G2962 .
|
|
3. As I urged you when I went into Macedonia -- remain in Ephesus that you may charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
|
3. As G2531 I besought G3870 thee G4571 to abide still G4357 at G1722 Ephesus G2181 , when I went G4198 into G1519 Macedonia G3109 , that G2443 thou mightest charge G3853 some G5100 that they teach no other doctrine G2085 G3361 ,
|
|
4. nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith.
|
4. Neither G3366 give heed G4337 to fables G3454 and G2532 endless G562 genealogies G1076 , which G3748 minister G3930 questions G2214 , rather G3123 than G2228 godly G2316 edifying G3622 which G3588 is in G1722 faith G4102 : so do.
|
|
5. Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,
|
5. Now G1161 the G3588 end G5056 of the G3588 commandment G3852 is G2076 charity G26 out of G1537 a pure G2513 heart G2588 , and G2532 of a good G18 conscience G4893 , and G2532 of faith G4102 unfeigned G505 :
|
|
6. from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk,
|
6. From which G3739 some G5100 having swerved G795 have turned aside G1624 unto G1519 vain jangling G3150 ;
|
|
7. desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.
|
7. Desiring G2309 to be G1511 teachers of the law G3547 ; understanding G3539 neither G3383 what G3739 they say G3004 , nor G3383 whereof G4012 G5101 they affirm G1226 .
|
|
8. But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully,
|
8. But G1161 we know G1492 that G3754 the G3588 law G3551 is good G2570 , if G1437 a man G5100 use G5530 it G846 lawfully G3545 ;
|
|
9. knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
|
9. Knowing G1492 this G5124 , that G3754 the law G3551 is not G3756 made G2749 for a righteous man G1342 , but G1161 for the lawless G459 and G2532 disobedient G506 , for the ungodly G765 and G2532 for sinners G268 , for unholy G462 and G2532 profane G952 , for murderers of fathers G3964 and G2532 murderers of mothers G3389 , for manslayers G409 ,
|
|
10. for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,
|
10. For whoremongers G4205 , for them that defile themselves with mankind G733 , for menstealers G405 , for liars G5583 , for perjured persons G1965 , and G2532 if there be any G1536 other thing G2087 that is contrary G480 to sound G5198 doctrine G1319 ;
|
|
11. according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust.
|
11. According G2596 to the G3588 glorious G1391 gospel G2098 of the G3588 blessed G3107 God G2316 , which G3739 was committed G4100 to my trust G1473 .
|
|
12. And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry,
|
12. And G2532 I thank G2192 G5485 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 our G2257 Lord G2962 , who hath enabled G1743 me G3165 , for that G3754 he counted G2233 me G3165 faithful G4103 , putting G5087 me into G1519 the ministry G1248 ;
|
|
13. although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
|
13. Who was G5607 before G4386 a blasphemer G989 , and G2532 a persecutor G1376 , and G2532 injurious G5197 : but G235 I obtained mercy G1653 , because G3754 I did G4160 it ignorantly G50 in G1722 unbelief G570 .
|
|
14. And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
|
14. And G1161 the G3588 grace G5485 of our G2257 Lord G2962 was exceeding abundant G5250 with G3326 faith G4102 and G2532 love G26 which G3588 is in G1722 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 .
|
|
15. This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
|
15. This is a faithful G4103 saying G3056 , and G2532 worthy G514 of all G3956 acceptation G594 , that G3754 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 came G2064 into G1519 the G3588 world G2889 to save G4982 sinners G268 ; of whom G3739 I G1473 am G1510 chief G4413 .
|
|
16. However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life.
|
16. Howbeit G235 for this cause G1223 G5124 I obtained mercy G1653 , that G2443 in G1722 me G1698 first G4413 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 might show forth G1731 all G3956 longsuffering G3115 , for G4314 a pattern G5296 to them which should hereafter G3195 believe G4100 on G1909 him G846 to G1519 life G2222 everlasting G166 .
|
|
17. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
|
17. Now G1161 unto the G3588 King G935 eternal G165 , immortal G862 , invisible G517 , the only G3441 wise G4680 God G2316 , be honor G5092 and G2532 glory G1391 forever and ever G1519 G165 G165 . Amen G281 .
|
|
18. This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
|
18. This G5026 charge G3852 I commit G3908 unto thee G4671 , son G5043 Timothy G5095 , according G2596 to the G3588 prophecies G4394 which went before G4254 on G1909 thee G4571 , that G2443 thou by G1722 them G846 mightest war G4754 a good G2570 warfare G4752 ;
|
|
19. having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck,
|
19. Holding G2192 faith G4102 , and G2532 a good G18 conscience G4893 ; which G3739 some G5100 having put away G683 concerning G4012 faith G4102 have made shipwreck G3489 :
|
|
20. of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.
|
20. Of whom G3739 is G2076 Hymenaeus G5211 and G2532 Alexander G223 ; whom G3739 I have delivered G3860 unto Satan G4567 , that G2443 they may learn G3811 not G3361 to blaspheme G987 .
