< 1 Timothy 3 >

1 Trustworthy [is] the saying: If anyone overseership aspires to, of good a work he is desirous.
یَدِ کَشْچِدْ اَدھْیَکْشَپَدَمْ آکانْکْشَتے تَرْہِ سَ اُتَّمَں کَرْمَّ لِپْسَتَ اِتِ سَتْیَں۔
2 It behooves therefore the overseer above reproach to be, of one wife [the] husband, sober, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,
اَتودھْیَکْشینانِنْدِتینَیکَسْیا یوشِتو بھَرْتْرا پَرِمِتَبھوگینَ سَںیَتَمَنَسا سَبھْییناتِتھِسیوَکینَ شِکْشَنے نِپُنینَ
3 not given to wine, not a striker (not greedy of base gain *K*) but gentle, peaceable, not loving money,
نَ مَدْیَپینَ نَ پْرَہارَکینَ کِنْتُ مرِدُبھاوینَ نِرْوِّوادینَ نِرْلوبھینَ
4 [his] own house well managing, children having in submission with all dignity.
سْوَپَرِوارانامْ اُتَّمَشاسَکینَ پُورْنَوِنِیتَتْوادْ وَشْیاناں سَنْتاناناں نِیَنْتْرا چَ بھَوِتَوْیَں۔
5 if but one his [own] household to manage not knows, how [the] church of God will he care for?
یَتَ آتْمَپَرِوارانْ شاسِتُں یو نَ شَکْنوتِ تینیشْوَرَسْیَ سَمِتیسْتَتّواوَدھارَنَں کَتھَں کارِشْیَتے؟
6 not a novice, that not having been puffed up into [the] judgment he may fall of the devil.
اَپَرَں سَ گَرْوِّتو بھُوتْوا یَتْ شَیَتانَ اِوَ دَنْڈَیوگْیو نَ بھَویتْ تَدَرْتھَں تینَ نَوَشِشْیینَ نَ بھَوِتَوْیَں۔
7 It behooves now (him *k*) also a testimony good to have from those outside, so that not into reproach he may fall and [the] snare of the devil.
یَچَّ نِنْدایاں شَیَتانَسْیَ جالے چَ نَ پَتیتْ تَدَرْتھَں تینَ بَہِحسْتھَلوکانامَپِ مَدھْیے سُکھْیاتِیُکْتینَ بھَوِتَوْیَں۔
8 Deacons likewise [must be] dignified, not double-tongued, not to wine much being given, not greedy of dishonest gain,
تَدْوَتْ پَرِچارَکَیرَپِ وِنِیتَے رْدْوِوِدھَواکْیَرَہِتَے رْبَہُمَدْیَپانے ناسَکْتَے رْنِرْلوبھَیشْچَ بھَوِتَوْیَں،
9 holding to the mystery of the faith with clear a conscience.
نِرْمَّلَسَںویدینَ چَ وِشْواسَسْیَ نِگُوڈھَواکْیَں دھاتِوْیَنْچَ۔
10 Also these now they should be tested first, then they should serve blameless being.
اَگْرے تیشاں پَرِیکْشا کْرِیَتاں تَتَح پَرَمْ اَنِنْدِتا بھُوتْوا تے پَرِچَرْیّاں کُرْوَّنْتُ۔
11 Women likewise [must be] dignified, not slanderers, (clear-minded, *N(k)O*) faithful in all things.
اَپَرَں یوشِدْبھِرَپِ وِنِیتابھِرَنَپَوادِکابھِح سَتَرْکابھِح سَرْوَّتْرَ وِشْواسْیابھِشْچَ بھَوِتَوْیَں۔
12 Deacons should be of one wife husbands, [their] children well managing and [their] own households.
پَرِچارَکا ایکَیکَیوشِتو بھَرْتّارو بھَوییُح، نِجَسَنْتاناناں پَرِجَنانانْچَ سُشاسَنَں کُرْیُّشْچَ۔
13 Those for well having served a standing for themselves good acquire and great confidence in [the] faith that [is] in Christ Jesus.
یَتَح سا پَرِچَرْیّا یَے رْبھَدْرَرُوپینَ سادھْیَتے تے شْریشْٹھَپَدَں پْراپْنُوَنْتِ کھْرِیشْٹے یِیشَو وِشْواسینَ مَہوتْسُکا بھَوَنْتِ چَ۔
14 These things to you I am writing hoping to come to you (with *no*) (speed; *N(k)O*)
تْواں پْرَتْییتَتْپَتْرَلیکھَنَسَمَیے شِیگھْرَں تْوَتْسَمِیپَگَمَنَسْیَ پْرَتْیاشا مَمَ وِدْیَتے۔
15 if however I shall delay, so that you may know how it behooves [one] in [the] household of God to conduct oneself, which is [the] church of God [the] living, [the] pillar and base of the truth.
یَدِ وا وِلَمْبییَ تَرْہِیشْوَرَسْیَ گرِہے رْتھَتَح سَتْیَدھَرْمَّسْیَ سْتَمْبھَبھِتِّمُولَسْوَرُوپایامْ اَمَریشْوَرَسْیَ سَمِتَو تْوَیا کِیدرِشَ آچارَح کَرْتَّوْیَسْتَتْ جْناتُں شَکْشْیَتے۔
16 And confessedly great is the of godliness mystery: (Who *N(K)O*) was revealed in [the] flesh, was justified in [the] Spirit, beheld by angels, was proclaimed among [the] nations, was believed on in [the] world, was taken up in glory.
اَپَرَں یَسْیَ مَہَتّوَں سَرْوَّسْوِیکرِتَمْ اِیشْوَرَبھَکْتیسْتَتْ نِگُوڈھَواکْیَمِدَمْ اِیشْوَرو مانَوَدیہے پْرَکاشِتَ آتْمَنا سَپُنْیِیکرِتو دُوتَیح سَنْدرِشْٹَح سَرْوَّجاتِییاناں نِکَٹے گھوشِتو جَگَتو وِشْواسَپاتْرِیبھُوتَسْتیجَحپْراپْتَیے سْوَرْگَں نِیتَشْچیتِ۔
