< 1 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope;
Timotius rala maloleꞌ! Sodꞌa-moleꞌ mia au, Paulus. Lamatualain soꞌu au dadꞌi Yesus Kristus dedꞌenun. Hita tamahena neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus, mana fee nggita tasodꞌa takandoo to E, huu Lamatualain fee hita tasodꞌa mia basa sala tara. Tius! Ho onaꞌ au ana ngga ena, huu au mana utudꞌu dalaꞌ de mumuhere neu Kristus. Au hule-oꞌe fo Lamatualain, hita Aman, no Yesus Kristus, hita malanggan, ratudꞌu rala malole nara no susue-lalai nara, ma fee nggo musodꞌa no mole-dꞌame.
2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain people not to teach a different doctrine,
Feꞌesaꞌan, ruꞌa nggita taꞌabꞌue mia kota Efesus. Leleꞌ au ae uu sia propinsi Makedonia, au huhuar nggo fo muhani sia Efesus. Te leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori ra tao atahori saraniꞌ ra bingun no nenoriꞌ nda matetuꞌ sa. Dadꞌi au oꞌe muu ai se, fo ara afiꞌ ranori rakandoo taꞌo naa.
4 neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith—
Atahori ra o ngganggari fai parsumaꞌ a reu dui-bꞌengga dudꞌui pepeko-lelekoꞌ fai maꞌahulun, boe ma rareresi soꞌal dꞌui-baes rakandooꞌ a. Dedꞌeꞌat naa ra taoꞌ a atahori ra ratofa ma rasodꞌa nda ramahere Lamatualain sa.
5 but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and sincere faith;
Au unori nggo ia, naa fo munori atahori mamahereꞌ ra fo rasodꞌa no susueꞌ mia rala meumareꞌ, dudꞌuꞌa ndo-tetuꞌ, ma nemehereꞌ tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ.
6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;
Te meser ruma raꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ ma nggari hendi nenoriꞌ naa. Boe ma ara reu ngganggari fai a noꞌ a nereresit ma olaꞌ baro-leli.
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.
Ara ratudꞌu ao nara rae, sira, meser mana ranori baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalane nara. Ara koa ao nara rae sira meser monaeꞌ ra, te nda rahine saa fo ranoriꞌ naa ra sa boe.
8 But we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
Basa hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, basa baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalane nara, maloleꞌ! Sadꞌi hita pake se tungga Lamatualain masud na no matetuꞌ.
9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their father or mother, for murderers,
Hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra, nda nenesuraꞌ fee atahori mana rasodꞌa no ndoo-tetuꞌ sa. Te nenesuraꞌ fee neu atahori mana mamue, nda mana rena parendaꞌ sa, rasodꞌa raꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ ro Lamatualain, hiiꞌ a tao deꞌulakaꞌ, nda taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa, mana raloe-radꞌae dala meumareꞌ a, mana risa atahori, ma mana risa ama-ina nara boe.
10 for the sexually immoral, for men who have sexual relations with men, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to sound teaching;
Hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra o nenesuraꞌ fee neu atahori mana hohonggeꞌ, touꞌ sao touꞌ, mana lea rendi atahori fo roꞌe doi sosoiꞌ, mana pepeko-lelekoꞌ, sakasii ombo-koson, ma fee basa atahori ralena langga neu nenori ndoo-tetuꞌ a.
11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
Nenori ndoo-tetuꞌ naa ra, laoꞌ mia Lamatualain Dudꞌui Malolen, fo Ana fee neu au ꞌa. Lamatualain naa, manaseliꞌ. Atahori soꞌu rananaru E o, nandaa.
12 And I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;
Au oꞌe makasi nae-nae neu hita Malanggan Yesus Kristus huu Ana namahere au, ma tao au bisa ulalao ue-tataon.
13 although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
Feꞌesaꞌan, au hiiꞌ a olaꞌ uꞌumuti fo uꞌututudꞌaꞌ Yesus Naran, ma tao doidꞌoso atahori mana tungga dꞌala masodꞌan. Au hiiꞌ a tuni-ndeni ulutu se. Au deꞌulaka ngga taꞌo naa, huu leleꞌ naa, au nda uhine saa fo au taoꞌ naa, ma nda feꞌe umuhere hita Malanggan Yesus Kristus sa. Huu au nda uhine saa fo au taoꞌ naa sa, dadꞌi Ana nda liliiꞌ au sa. Ma Ana o natudꞌu susuen neu au. Lenaꞌ fai, natudꞌu rala malolen neu au nakandooꞌ a! Ana mbori-mboꞌa papala-babꞌanggiꞌ fee au, fo umuhere uhereꞌ neu E, ma sue atahori ra onaꞌ Ana sue au boe.
14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
Hita o rena-renaꞌ tae, “Yesus Kristus nema sia raefafoꞌ ia, fo fee masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori mana tao salaꞌ ra.” Memaꞌ tebꞌe taꞌo naa! Mia basa atahori mana tao salaꞌ ra, au ia deꞌulaka ngga naseliꞌ.
16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
Mae deꞌulaka ngga onaꞌ naa o, Lamatualain naꞌetuꞌ nala nae nda huku-doki au sa. Ana nau pake au dadꞌi conto fo utudꞌu Yesus Kristus rala loan neu atahori deꞌulaka manaseliꞌ onaꞌ au ia. No taꞌo naa, atahori feaꞌ mana tao salaꞌ ra ramahere neu E, fo ara o rasodꞌa rakando ro E. (aiōnios g166)
17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Koa-kio Lamatualain! Akaꞌ a mesaꞌ ne, Lamatualain; nda hambu laen sa! Mane mana toꞌu parendaꞌ nda manabasaꞌ sa. Eni nasodꞌa nakandooꞌ a. Eni nda mate sa. Atahori nda rita E no mata ao sisi nara sa. Basa hadꞌa-hormat ma kokoa-kikioꞌ fee neu E. losa doo nduꞌu-dꞌoon neu! Amin. (aiōn g165)
18 This instruction I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to you, that by them you may wage the good warfare;
Ana ngga Timotius, rala malole! Au ae ufadꞌe nggo, saa fo ho musi tao sia ue-tatao mara. Basa ia ra, tungga saa fo Lamatualain mana ola-ola nara olaꞌ memaꞌ soꞌal ue-tataom. Mete ma ho tungga dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa ra no matetuꞌ, na, ho onaꞌ soldꞌadꞌu esa, natati nahine, labꞌan deꞌulakaꞌ ra.
19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;
Toꞌu muhereꞌ nemeherem neu Kristus. Ma munea fo ralam meuꞌ nakandooꞌ a. Huu hambu atahori nda nau rena sira rala dudꞌuꞌa nara sa. Naa tao sira nemehere nara rambalutu, onaꞌ ofai sae nala fatu mbiaꞌ.
20 of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
Himenius no Alexander, onaꞌ naa boe! Naa de, au hela fee se reu nitur malangga monaen nauli se. Au tao taꞌo naa, fo dadꞌi nenoriꞌ sa, fo ara afiꞌ tao ralutu Lamatuaꞌ naran fai.
