1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus—by injunction of God our Saviour and Christ Jesus our hope, —

2 unto Timothy, my true child in faith: favour, mercy, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.

3 Even as I exhorted thee to remain in Ephesus, when I was journeying into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some—
ⲅ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁⲓϯϩⲟ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲕϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲉⲫⲉⲥⲟⲥ ⲉⲓⲛⲁϣⲉ ⲛⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲑⲙⲁⲕⲉⲇⲟⲛⲓⲁ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲕϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲛⲕⲉ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ.
4 Not to be teaching otherwise, nor yet to be giving heed to stories and endless genealogies, —the which, bring, arguings, rather than that stewardship of God which is with faith; —
ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙϯ⳿ϩⲑⲏϥ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛ⳿ϣⲃⲱ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛϫⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲁⲩⲣⲏϫⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛϫⲓⲛⲕⲱϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϯⲟⲓⲕⲟⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲛⲁϩϯ.
5 Now, the end of the charge, is love—out of a pure heart, and a good conscience, and faith unfeigned, —
ⲉ̅⳿ⲡϫⲱⲕ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲥⲩⲛⲏⲇⲉⲥⲓⲥ ⲉⲛⲁⲛⲉⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛⲁⲧⲙⲉⲧϣⲟⲃⲓ.
6 Which some, missing, have turned them aside unto idle talk,

7 Desiring to be law-teachers, —not understanding, either what they say or whereof they confidently affirm.

8 Now we know that, excellent, is the law, if one put it to a lawful use: —

9 Knowing this—that, to a righteous man, law, doth not apply, but to the lawless and insubordinate, ungodly and sinful, irreligious and profane, smiters of fathers and smiters of mothers, murderers,
ⲑ̅ⲉⲕ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲫⲁⲓ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲭⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁϥⲭⲏ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲁⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲧϭⲛⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲥⲉⲃⲏⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲣⲉϥⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲧⲟⲩⲃⲏⲟⲩⲧ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲥⲁϥϩⲏ ⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϧⲁⲧⲉⲃ ⲓⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϧⲁⲧⲉⲃ ⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϧⲁⲧⲉⲃ ⲣⲱⲙⲓ.
10 fornicators, sodomites, man-stealers, liars, false- swearers, —and, if anything else, unto the healthful teaching, is opposed; —

11 According to the glad-message of the glory of the happy God, with which entrusted am, I.

12 Grateful, am I unto him that empowered me, Christ Jesus our Lord, in that, faithful, he accounted me, putting me into ministry, —

13 Though, formerly, a defamer, and persecutor, and insulter; nevertheless mercy was shown me, because, without knowledge, I acted, in unbelief:

14 Yet exceeding abundant was the favour of our Lord, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.

15 Faithful, the saying! and, of all acceptance, worthy, —that, Christ Jesus, came into the world, sinners, to save: of whom, the chief, am, I;—

16 Nevertheless, on this account, was mercy shewn me, —that, in me, the chief, Christ Jesus might shew forth his entire longsuffering, for an ensample of them about to believe on him unto life age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)
