1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Savior, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
我らの救主なる神と我らの希望なるキリスト・イエスとの命によりて、キリスト・イエスの使徒となれるパウロ、
2 to Timotheus—genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord!
書を信仰に由りて我が眞實の子たるテモテに贈る。願はくは父なる神および我らの主キリスト・イエスより賜ふ恩惠と憐憫と平安と、汝に在らんことを。
3 According as I exhorted you to remain in Ephesus—I going on to Macedonia—that you might charge certain [ones] not to teach any other thing,
我マケドニヤに往きしとき汝に勸めし如く、汝なほエペソに留まり、ある人々に命じて、異なる教を傳ふることなく、
4 nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than [the] stewardship of God which [is] in faith.
昔話と窮りなき系圖とに心を寄する事なからしめよ。此 等のことは信仰に基ける神の經綸の助とならず、反つて議論を生ずるなり。
5 And the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of unhypocritical faith,
命令の目的は清き心と善き良心と僞りなき信仰とより出づる愛にあり。
6 from which certain [men], having swerved, turned aside to vain discourse,
ある人々これらの事より外れて虚しき物語にうつり、
7 willing to be teachers of law, not understanding either the things they say, nor concerning what they confidently assert,
律法の教師たらんと欲して、反つて其の言ふ所その確證する所を自ら悟らず。
8 and we have known that the Law [is] good, if anyone may use it lawfully;
律法は道理に循ひて之を用ひば善き者なるを我らは知る。
9 having known this, that law is not set for a righteous man, but for lawless and insubordinate persons, ungodly and sinners, impious and profane, murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, manslayers,
律法を用ふる者は、律法の正しき人の爲にあらずして、不法のもの、服從せぬもの、敬虔ならぬもの、罪あるもの、潔からぬもの、妄なるもの、父を撃つもの、母を撃つもの、人を殺す者、
10 whoremongers, homosexuals, enslavers, liars, perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is adverse to sound doctrine,
淫行のもの、男色を行ふもの、人を誘拐すもの、僞るもの、いつはり誓ふ者の爲、そのほか健全なる教に逆ふ凡ての事のために設けられたるを知るべし。
11 according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.
これは我に委ね給ひし幸福なる神の榮光の福音に循へるなり。
12 And I give thanks to Him who enabled me—Christ Jesus our Lord—that He reckoned me steadfast, having put [me] to the ministry,
我に能力を賜ふ我らの主キリスト・イエスに感謝す。
13 who before was speaking slander, and persecuting, and insulting, but I found kindness, because, being ignorant, I did [it] in unbelief,
われ曩には涜す者、迫害する者、暴行の者なりしに、我を忠實なる者として、この職に任じ給ひたればなり。われ信ぜぬ時に知らずして行ひし故に憐憫を蒙れり。
14 and the grace of our Lord exceedingly abounded, with faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus.
而して我らの主の恩惠は、キリスト・イエスに由れる信仰および愛とともに溢るるばかり彌増せり。
15 The word [is] steadfast, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am first;
『キリスト・イエス罪人を救はん爲に世に來り給へり』とは、信ずべく正しく受くべき言なり、其の罪人の中にて我は首なり。
16 but because of this I found kindness, that Jesus Christ might first show forth all long-suffering in me, for a pattern of those about to believe on Him to continuous life. (aiōnios g166)
然るに我が憐憫を蒙りしは、キリスト・イエス我を首に寛容をことごとく顯し、この後、かれを信じて永遠の生命を受けんとする者の模範となし給はん爲なり。 (aiōnios g166)
17 And to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, [is] honor and glory through the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
願はくは萬世の王、すなはち朽ちず見えざる唯一の神に、世々 限りなく尊貴と榮光とあらん事を、アァメン。 (aiōn g165)
18 I commit to you this charge, child Timotheus, according to the prophecies that went before on you, that you may war in them the good warfare,
わが子テモテよ、汝を指したる凡ての預言に循ひて、我この命令を汝に委ぬ。これ汝がその預言により、信仰と善き良心とを保ちて、善き戰鬪を戰はん爲なり。
19 having faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away, made shipwreck concerning the faith,
或 人よき良心を棄てて信仰の破船をなせり。
20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be instructed not to speak evil.
その中にヒメナオとアレキサンデルとあり、彼らに涜すまじきことを學ばせんとて、我これをサタンに付せり。
