1 Timothy 6
1 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.
Kateri so hlapci pod jarmom, naj imajo svoje gospode za vse česti vredne, da se ne govori pregrešno o Bogu in nauku.
2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.
Kateri pa imajo verne gospode, naj jih ne zaničujejo, ker so bratje; nego tem bolj naj služijo, ker so verni in ljubljeni, kateri sprejemajo dobroto. Tako úči in opominjaj.
3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, (logos) even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
Ako kdo drugače uči in ne pristopi zdravim besedam Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa in nauku k pobožnosti,
4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof comes envy, strife, railings, evil questionings,
Oslepljen je in nič ne umé, nego boleha za pregovarjanji in besednimi prepiri, iz česar postane zavist, prepir, preklinjanje, natolcevanje;
5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw yourself.
Nepotrebni opravki ljudî popačenih v duhu in brez resnice, ki mislijo, da je pobožnost pridobivanje. Ogiblji se takih.
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
Je pa pridobivanje veliko pobožnost sè zadovoljnostjo.
7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
Kajti ničesar nismo prinesli na svet, jasno, da tudi odnesti ne moremo ničesar;
8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
Če pa imamo hrane in odeje, bodimo s tem zadovoljni.
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
Kateri pa hočejo biti bogati, padejo v izkušnjavo in past in mnoga poželenja nespametna in škodljiva, katera pogrezajo ljudî v pogubljenje in pogin.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Kajti vsega zlega korenina je lakomnost; njej vdani so nekateri zabredli od vere in prebodli se z mnogimi bolečinami.
11 But you, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, (agape) patience, meekness.
Ti pa, o človek Božji, ogiblji se tega; hodi pa za pravico, pobožnostjo, vero, ljubeznijo, stanovitnostjo, krotkostjo.
12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, unto which you are also called, and have professed a good profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
Bij lepi boj vere; poprimi se večnega življenja, za katero si bil tudi poklican in si spoznal lepo spoznanje pred mnogimi pričami. (aiōnios g166)
13 I give you charge in the sight of God, who replenishes life to all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;
Naročam ti pred Bogom, ki vse oživlja, in Kristusom Jezusom, kateri je pričal pred Poncijem Pilatom lepo spoznanje,
14 That you keep this commandment without spot, blameless, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Da hraniš zapoved brez madeža, brez napake, do prihoda Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa.
15 Which in his times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
Katerega bode o svojem času prikazal blaženi in edini vladar, kralj kraljujočih in gospodujočih gospod,
16 Who only has immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Kateri ima sam neumrjočnost, v svetlobi bivajoč ne dohodni; katerega ni videl ljudî nobeden, in tudi videti ne more; njemu čast in moč večna! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy; (aiōn g165)
Bogatinom na tem svetu naročaj, naj se ne prevzemajo; in naj ne zaupajo v bogastva negotovost, nego v Boga živega, kateri nam delí vsega obilo v uživanje; (aiōn g165)
18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
Naj dobro delajo, bogati v dobrih delih, radodarni, podeljivi:
19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
Naj si nabirajo zaklade v dobro podstavo za prihodnjost, da se poprimejo večnega življenja.
20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to your trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
O Timotej, brani zalogo ogibajoč se posvetnega govoričenja in nasprotij krivo imenovane znanosti,
21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.
Katero spoznavajoč so nekateri izgrešili vero. Milost s teboj! Amen. Timoteju list prvi pisan iz Laodiceje, katera jo glavno mesto Frigije Pakacijane.
