1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and of Christ Jesus our hope:
Paoly, Apostolin’ i Kristy Jesosy araka ny didin’ Andriamanitra, Mpamonjy antsika, sy Kristy Jesosy fanantenantsika,
2 To Timothy, his beloved son in faith. Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father, and from Christ Jesus our Lord.
mamangy an’ i Timoty, tena zanako amin’ ny finoana: fahasoavana, famindram-po, fiadanana avy amin’ Andriamanitra Ray sy Kristy Jesosy Tompontsika.
3 As I desired thee to remain at Ephesus when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some not to teach otherwise,
Toy ny nangatahako anao hitoetra any Efesosy, rehefa hankany Makedonia aho, mba handidianao ny sasany tsy hanao fampianarana hafahafa,
4 Not to give heed to fables and endless genealogies: which furnish questions rather than the edification of God, which is in faith.
na hitandrina ny anganongano sy ny tantaram-pirazanana tsy hita lany izay mahatonga ady hevitra, fa tsy mampandroso ny fitondrana araka an’ Andriamanitra amin’ ny finoana, dia toy izany koa no ataoko ankehitriny.
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity, from a pure heart, and a good conscience, and an unfeigned faith.
Fa ny anton’ ny didy dia fitiavana avy amin’ ny fo madio sy ny fieritreretana tsara ary ny finoana tsy mihatsaravelatsihy,
6 From which things some going astray, are turned aside unto vain babbling:
izay nivilian’ ny sasany, ka nania ho amin’ ny taria foana izy,
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither the things they say, nor whereof they affirm.
dia olona izay te-ho mpampiana-dalàna, kanefa tsy fantany akory izay lazainy na izay itompoany.
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully:
Nefa fantatsika fa tsara ny lalàna, raha entin’ ny olona araka izay antony,
9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for the just man, but for the unjust and disobedient, for the ungodly, and for sinners, for the wicked and defiled, for murderers of fathers, and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
ka fantany fa tsy ny olona marina no nanaovana ny lalàna, fa ny mpandika lalàna sy ny maditra, dia ny tsy matahotra an’ Andriamanitra sy ny mpanota, ny olona tsy manaja izay masìna sy ny olona vetaveta, ny mpamono ray sy ny mpamono reny, ny mpamono olona,
10 For fornicators, for them who defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and whatever other thing is contrary to sound doctrine,
ny mpijangajanga, ny sodomita, ny mpangalatra olona, ny mpandainga, ny mpianian-tsy tò, ary na inona na inona manohitra ny fampianarana tsy misy kilema,
11 Which is according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which hath been committed to my trust.
araka ny filazantsaran’ ny voninahitr’ Andriamanitra finaritra, izay natolotra ho adidiko.
12 I give thanks who hath strengthened me, even to Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he hath counted me faithful, putting me in the ministry;
Misaotra an’ i Kristy Jesosy Tompontsika aho, Izay nampahery ahy, fa nataony mahatoky aho ka notendreny ho amin’ ny fanompoana,
13 Who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and contumelious. But I obtained the mercy of God, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
dia izaho, izay mpiteny ratsy fahiny sady mpanenjika sy mpampahory; kanefa nahazo famindram-po aho, satria tamin’ ny tsi-fahalalana no nanaovako izany noho ny tsi-finoana.
14 Now the grace of our Lord hath abounded exceedingly with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus.
Fa be indrindra ny fahasoavan’ ny Tompontsika tamin’ ny finoana sy ny fitiavana, izay ao amin’ i Kristy Jesosy.
15 A faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into this world to save sinners, of whom I am the chief.
Mahatoky ka tokony hekena amin’ ny fankasitrahana rehetra izao teny izao: tonga tetỳ ambonin’ ny tany Kristy Jesosy hamonjy ny mpanota, ary amin’ ireny izaho no lohany.
16 But for this cause have I obtained mercy: that in me first Christ Jesus might shew forth all patience, for the information of them that shall believe in him unto life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)
Kanefa izao no namindrana fo tamiko, dia ny mba hasehon’ i Jesosy Kristy eo amiko, izay lohany, ny fahari-po rehetra ho fianarana ho an’ izay hino Azy hahazoana fiainana mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the king of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Ary ho an’ ny Mpanjaka tsy manan-taloha, tsy mety maty, tsy hita, dia ho an’ Andriamanitra tokana ihany anie ny laza sy ny voninahitra mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. (aiōn g165)
18 This precept I commend to thee, O son Timothy; according to the prophecies going before on thee, that thou war in them a good warfare,
Izao didy izao no omeko anao, ry Timoty zanako, araka ireo faminaniana natao fahiny ny aminao ireo, mba ho entinao miady ny ady tsara ireo,
19 Having faith and a good conscience, which some rejecting have made shipwreck concerning the faith.
amin’ ny itananao ny finoana sy ny fieritreretana tsara, izay efa narian’ ny sasany, ka toy ny olona vaky sambo izy ny amin’ ny finoana;
20 Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered up to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
naman’ ireny Hymeneo sy Aleksandro, izay natolotro ho an’ i Satana mba hofaizana tsy hiteny ratsy.
