1 Timothy 6
1 Let as many seruaunts as are vnder the yoke, count their masters worthie of all honour, that the Name of God, and his doctrine be not euill spoken of.
As many as are under a yoke [as] slaves, [their] own masters of all honor worthy they should esteem, so that not the name of God and the teaching may be denigrated.
2 And they which haue beleeuing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren, but rather doe seruice, because they are faithfull, and beloued, and partakers of the benefite. These things teach and exhort.
Those now believing having masters not they should despise [them] because brothers they are; but rather they should serve [them], because believing [ones] they are and beloved by the good service being helped. These things do teach and do exhort.
3 If any man teach otherwise, and consenteth not to the wholesome wordes of our Lord Iesus Christ, and to the doctrine, which is according to godlinesse,
If anyone teaches another doctrine and not he draws near to sound words of the Lord of us Jesus Christ and the according to godliness teaching,
4 He is puft vp and knoweth nothing, but doteth about questions and strife of words, whereof commeth enuie, strife, railings, euill surmisings,
he has been puffed up nothing knowing but unhealthy about controversies and disputes about words, out of which come envy, strife, slander, suspicions evil,
5 Frowarde disputations of men of corrupt mindes and destitute of ye trueth, which thinke that gaine is godlines: from such separate thy selfe.
[and] constant frictions corrupted among men in mind and defrauded of the truth, holding a means of gain to be godliness (do depart from [one of] such. *K*)
6 But godlinesse is great gaine, if a man be content with that he hath.
Is however gain great godliness with contentment.
7 For we brought nothing into the world, and it is certaine, that we can carie nothing out.
No [thing] for we brought into the world, (evident *K*) because neither to carry out anything are we able;
8 Therefore when wee haue foode and raiment, let vs therewith be content.
Having however sustenance and coverings, with these we will be content.
9 For they that will be rich, fall into tentation and snares, and into many foolish and noysome lustes, which drowne men in perdition and destruction.
Those however desiring to be rich they fall into temptation and a snare and desires many foolish and harmful, which plunge men into ruin and destruction.
10 For the desire of money is the roote of all euill, which while some lusted after, they erred from the faith, and pearced themselues through with many sorowes.
A root for of all kinds of evils is the love of money, which some stretching after were seduced away from the faith and themselves pierced with sorrows many.
11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousnesse, godlines, faith, loue, patience, and meekenes.
You yourself however, O man (*k*) of God, these things do flee, do pursue now righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, ([and] gentleness; *N(K)O*)
12 Fight the good fight of faith: lay holde of eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
do fight the good fight of the faith, do lay hold of the eternal life to which (also *k*) you were called and did confess the good confession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
13 I charge thee in the sight of God, who quickeneth all thinges, and before Iesus Christ, which vnder Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession,
I charge you before God who (is giving life *N(k)O*) to all things and Christ Jesus the [One who] having testified before Pontius Pilate the good confession
14 That thou keepe this commandement without spot, and vnrebukeable, vntill the appearing of our Lord Iesus Christ,
to keep you the commandment without stain, above reproach until the appearing of the Lord of us Jesus Christ,
15 Which in due time hee shall shewe, that is blessed and Prince onely, the King of Kings and Lord of Lordes,
which in seasons [their] own He will display the blessed and alone Sovereign, the King of those being kings and [the] Lord of those being lords,
16 Who onely hath immortalitie, and dwelleth in the light that none can attaine vnto, whom neuer man sawe, neither can see, vnto whome bee honour and power euerlasting, Amen. (aiōnios g166)
alone having immortality, in light dwelling unapproachable, whom has seen no [one] of men nor to see is able, to whom [be] honor and dominion eternal, Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high minded, and that they trust not in vncertaine riches, but in the liuing God, (which giueth vs aboundantly, all things to enioy) (aiōn g165)
To the rich in the present age do instruct [them] not to be high-minded nor to have hope in of riches [the] uncertainty but (on *N(k)O*) (*k*) God (who is living *K*) who is providing us all things richly for enjoyment, (aiōn g165)
18 That they doe good, and be riche in good woorkes, and readie to distribute, and comunicate,
to do good, to be rich in works good, generous in distributing to be, ready to share,
19 Laying vp in store for themselues a good foundation against the time to come, that they may obteine eternall life.
treasuring up for themselves a foundation good for the future, so that they may take hold of that which ([is] truly *N(K)O*) life.
20 O Timotheus, keepe that which is committed vnto thee, and auoide prophane and vaine babblings, and oppositios of science falsely so called,
O Timothy, the (deposit committed [to you] *N(k)O*) do guard avoiding the profane empty babblings and opposing arguments falsely called knowledge,
21 Which while some professe, they haue erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee, Amen. ‘The first Epistle to Timotheus, written from Laodicea, which is the chiefest citie of Phrygia Pacaciana.’
which some professing from the faith went astray. Grace [be] with (you [all] *N(k)O*) (Amen. *KO*) (to Timothy first it was written from Laodicea which is capital of Phrygia of Pacatiana. *K*)
