1 Timothy 6

1 As many as are servants under a yoke, let them reckon their own masters worthy of all honor, that evil may not be spoken of the Name of God and the teaching;

yAvantO lOkA yugadhAriNO dAsAH santi tE svasvasvAminaM pUrNasamAdarayOgyaM manyantAM nO cEd Izvarasya nAmna upadEzasya ca nindA sambhaviSyati|

2 and those having believing masters, do not let them slight [them], because they are brothers, but rather let them serve, because they are steadfast and beloved, who are partaking of the benefit. Be teaching and exhorting these things;

yESAnjca svAminO vizvAsinaH bhavanti taistE bhrAtRtvAt nAvajnjEyAH kintu tE karmmaphalabhOginO vizvAsinaH priyAzca bhavantIti hEtOH sEvanIyA Eva, tvam EtAni zikSaya samupadiza ca|

3 if anyone be teaching otherwise, and does not consent to sound words—those of our Lord Jesus Christ—and to the teaching according to piety,

yaH kazcid itarazikSAM karOti, asmAkaM prabhO ryIzukhrISTasya hitavAkyAnIzvarabhaktE ryOgyAM zikSAnjca na svIkarOti

4 he is proud, knowing nothing, but unhealthy about questions and word-striving, out of which come envy, strife, slanders, evil-surmisings,

sa darpadhmAtaH sarvvathA jnjAnahInazca vivAdai rvAgyuddhaizca rOgayuktazca bhavati|

5 wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;

tAdRzAd bhAvAd IrSyAvirOdhApavAdaduSTAsUyA bhraSTamanasAM satyajnjAnahInAnAm IzvarabhaktiM lAbhOpAyam iva manyamAnAnAM lOkAnAM vivAdAzca jAyantE tAdRzEbhyO lOkEbhyastvaM pRthak tiSTha|

6 but it is great gain—the piety with contentment;

saMyatEcchayA yuktA yEzvarabhaktiH sA mahAlAbhOpAyO bhavatIti satyaM|

7 for we brought nothing into the world—because neither are we able to carry out anything;

EtajjagatpravEzanakAlE'smAbhiH kimapi nAnAyi tattayajanakAlE'pi kimapi nEtuM na zakSyata iti nizcitaM|

8 but having food and raiment—with these we will suffice ourselves;

ataEva khAdyAnyAcchAdanAni ca prApyAsmAbhiH santuSTai rbhavitavyaM|

9 and those intending to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many desires, foolish and hurtful, that sink men into ruin and destruction,

yE tu dhaninO bhavituM cESTantE tE parIkSAyAm unmAthE patanti yE cAbhilASA mAnavAn vinAzE narakE ca majjayanti tAdRzESvajnjAnAhitAbhilASESvapi patanti|

10 for the love of money is a root of all the evils, which certain [ones] longing for went astray from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows;

yatO'rthaspRhA sarvvESAM duritAnAM mUlaM bhavati tAmavalambya kEcid vizvAsAd abhraMzanta nAnAklEzaizca svAn avidhyan|

11 and you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness.

hE Izvarasya lOka tvam EtEbhyaH palAyya dharmma Izvarabhakti rvizvAsaH prEma sahiSNutA kSAntizcaitAnyAcara|

12 Be striving the good strife of the faith; be laying hold on the continuous life to which you also were called, and did profess the right profession before many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)

vizvAsarUpam uttamayuddhaM kuru, anantajIvanam Alambasva yatastadarthaM tvam AhUtO 'bhavaH, bahusAkSiNAM samakSanjcOttamAM pratijnjAM svIkRtavAn| (aiōnios g166)

13 I charge you, before God, who is making all things alive, and of Christ Jesus, who testified the right profession before Pontius Pilate,

aparaM sarvvESAM jIvayiturIzvarasya sAkSAd yazca khrISTO yIzuH pantIyapIlAtasya samakSam uttamAM pratijnjAM svIkRtavAn tasya sAkSAd ahaM tvAm idam AjnjApayAmi|

14 that you keep the command unspotted, unblameable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,

IzvarENa svasamayE prakAzitavyam asmAkaM prabhO ryIzukhrISTasyAgamanaM yAvat tvayA niSkalagkatvEna nirddOSatvEna ca vidhI rakSyatAM|

15 which He will show in His own times—the blessed and only sovereign, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,

sa IzvaraH saccidAnandaH, advitIyasamrAT, rAjnjAM rAjA, prabhUnAM prabhuH,

16 having immortality alone, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no one of men saw, nor is able to see, to whom [is] honor and perpetual might! Amen. (aiōnios g166)

amaratAyA advitIya AkaraH, agamyatEjOnivAsI, marttyAnAM kEnApi na dRSTaH kEnApi na dRzyazca| tasya gauravaparAkramau sadAtanau bhUyAstAM| AmEn| (aiōnios g166)

17 Charge those rich in the present age not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment— (aiōn g165)

ihalOkE yE dhaninastE cittasamunnatiM capalE dhanE vizvAsanjca na kurvvatAM kintu bhOgArtham asmabhyaM pracuratvEna sarvvadAtA (aiōn g165)

18 to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,

yO'mara Izvarastasmin vizvasantu sadAcAraM kurvvantu satkarmmadhanEna dhaninO sukalA dAtArazca bhavantu,

19 treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on [that which is] truly life.

yathA ca satyaM jIvanaM pApnuyustathA pAratrikAm uttamasampadaM sanjcinvantvEti tvayAdizyantAM|

20 O Timotheus, guard the thing entrusted, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,

hE tImathiya, tvam upanidhiM gOpaya kAlpanikavidyAyA apavitraM pralApaM virOdhOktinjca tyaja ca,

21 which certain [ones] professing—swerved concerning the faith. The grace [is] with you! Amen.
