1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, and apostle of Jesus Christ by command of God our Saviour and Jesus Christ our Hope,
Ringnv Pwknvyarnv gv orto lokv okv ngonugv mvngtin kunam Kristo Jisu gv apostol akobv rinv Paul gvlokv—
2 to Timothy, my true son in the faith; Grace, mercy and peace from God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mvngjwng lokv ngoogv jvjvnv kuunyilo bv rinv Timotinyi: Ngonugv Abu Pwknvyarnv okv Kristo Jisu ngonugv Ahtu nam anyubv aya nga okv sarsopoyo nga jigv nyika.
3 As I begged you when I was setting out for Macedonia, stay where you are at Ephesus, and instruct certain individuals there not to be teaching heterodoxy,
Ngo Mesedonia bv vngla lamtvlo nam minam apiabv, ngo nam Epesus lo dootoka vla mvngdunv. Nyi mego vka mvvnam doin vkv tamsar nyadu, okv no bunua mingku mabvka vla orto jirung toka.
4 nor to be paying attention to myths and interminable genealogies, which tend to promote discussions rather than a stewardship entrusted by God, a stewardship which is in faith.
Bunua krim gv minjarminbo bv minam higu okv abuapa nwdw lvkkum pvvnam vdwa kayu toka vla mintoka, hv nyi vdwa larmi simu nyumdo, Pwknvyarnv gv rungnam lo rijivngji madu, um mvngjwng lokv chindu.
5 Now the end of the exhortation is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and an undissembled faith.
So ortojinam gv lvkwng ngv haapok darwknv lokv, mongrumara abwknam lokv okv tarwkbaak bv mvngjwngnam lokv aanv pakmi sinam ha kaiyaya modubv rinam go.
6 Some have failed here, and have turned aside to empty argument.
So vdw sokv nyi mego vngkur nyapvku okv pvchabv gaam raaku lokv bunugv lamtv nga ngoomu nyaroku.
7 Although they desire to be teachers of the law, they understand neither the words they use nor the subjects they talk about.
Bunu Pwknvyarnv gv Pvbv nga tamsarnvbv ridubv mvngdu vbvritola bunu atugv gamchar vdwa vbvmajeka bunugv jvjvnv aingbv mvngpakla raagvdvnam gaam humka bunu chima.
8 I know well that "the Law is good" if a man use it lawfully;
Ngonu chindu Pvbv si alvnvngv um oguaingbv rinv svngvdw vbvrinv nvbolo.
9 but he must remember that the Law is not enacted for a good man, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the irreligious and sinful, for the godless and profane, for parricides and murderers,
Si mvngpa rungsego, Pvbv si alvnv nyi vdwgv lvgabv mvma, vbvritola Pvbv nga mvwkmvrwknv okv dvchotvnglanv nyi vdwgv lvgabv, Pwknvyarnvni chimanv okv rimurnv okv yvvbunudw dormo mani madunv okv vmalo yalu lvgabv mvngmanv, anvabu ha pakipamarnv vdwgv lvgabv, gwngrw gwnv vdwgv lvgabv,
10 for the immoral, for sexual perverts, for slave dealers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,
yoomurchomurnv vdwgv lvgabv, nyimv anying nyilo anying rimisinv vdwgv lvgabv, nyi naasinv vdwgv lvgabv, yvvbunudw nyi gv lvgabv mvvla mirianv vmalo yvvdw jvjvnv doin ha akusubv kudungkua rinv vdwgv lvgabv.
11 as laid down in the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which has been entrusted to me.
Ho gv doin ha gamlv lo paadu um nga minggo kardubv mintoku, kairungnv okv bokta rungnv Pwknvyarnv gvlokv Alvnv Yunying ngv.
12 And I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has thus enabled me, that he accounted me faithful, and appointed me to his service,
Ngo Kristo Jisu Ahtunyi umbonyikv vdunv, nw ngoogv kudungkua lvgabv nga gwlwk ha jiyadu. Ngo ninyia ngam ninyigv nyi gubvrila dubv okv ninyia rijikodubv naalwk kunam lvkwngbv umbonyikv vdunv,
13 although I had formerly been a blasphemer and a persecutor and a doer of outrage. But I obtained mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief.
kvvlo kvcho ngo ninyia alvmabv minla okv mvdwkmvku la okv nyarjikaula rinv gubv rijeka. Vbvritola Pwknvyarnv ngam paknyu bv pakla ogulvgavbolo ngo hoka mvngjwng dootv madvto okv vkvlvgabv ngo ogugo ridu nvdw um chimato.
14 And the grace of our Lord overflowed with faith and love that is in Christ Jesus.
Okv ngonugv Ahtu kairungnv gv aya nga ngoogvlo pwlwk jitoku okv Kristo Jisunyi akin laikula ngonu gvbvrinv mvngjwng okv paknama ngam jitoku.
15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that "Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners"! And there is no greater sinner than I!
Si jvjvbv minamv, mvnwngnga torwk sise ngv okv mvngjwng rungse ngv: Kristo Jisu nyiamooku so itoku rimurnv vdwa ringdubv. Bunugv lokv ngo alvmaya choknv,
16 Yet for this very cause I obtained mercy, so that in me, the chief of sinners, Jesus Christ might display all his boundless patience as an illustration for those who should later believe in him, and so gain life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
Vbvritola Pwknvyarnv ngam achialvbv ayato, vbvrinam hv Jisu Kristo gv ngam ninyigv saktv mvnwngnga lvkobv kaatam modubv alvmaya choknv nga, kochinglo yvvbunudw ninyia mvngjwng redw turbwngnv singnam ha paamu dukubv kaagvsidubv rinam goku. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be glory and honor forever and ever. Amen! (aiōn g165)
Turbwngnv Kvvbinyi, vdwloka simanv okv kaapa manam, Pwknvyarnv akin—ninyia mvngdv kunam mv okv kaiyachok namv dvbvsingtambv doobwng laka! Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 This charge then, I am laying upon you, Timothy, my son, according to the predictions formerly made concerning you. Fight the good fight in the spirit of these predictions,
Ngoogv kuunyilo Timoti nga nam ngo so gaam sum mindunv no alvbv mvmi sunam lvgabv kvvlo gv nogv lvkwnglo nyikrw gaam minam vdwa no minla rila yidu gubv minv nvlaka,
19 keeping fast hold of faith and a good conscience; which certain individuals have cast aside, and so made shipwreck of their faith.
okv nogv mvngjwng okv mvngdarsakdar sinamlo pvbwng suto laka. Nyi tunggonv bunugv mvngdarsakdar haatin simanam lokv okv mvngjwng ngv haatin simanam lokv bunugv mvngjwng nga ngemu nyadu.
20 Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given over to Satan, so that they may be taught not to blaspheme.
Bunugv ara lokv Haimenias okv Alekjendar, bunyia ngo Uyu gv laaklo laklwk la mvrit pvnv; svbvrinam si bunyia lvkodv Pwknvyarnvnyi minyingmiru mimu kuma dukubv ripvnv.
