1 Timothy 1

1 PAULOS, an apostle of Jeshu Meshiha, by the commandment of Aloha our Saviour, and of Jeshu Meshiha our hope;

Paul, an apostle of Meshikha Yeshua according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Meshikha Yeshua our hope;

2 to Timotheos, my true son in the faith: grace and mercy and peace from Aloha our Father and Jeshu Meshiha our Lord.

to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Meshikha Yeshua our Lord.

3 I requested of thee, when I would go into Makedunia, to remain at Ephesos, and instruct certain men that they teach not various doctrines,

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,

4 nor throw themselves (away) upon stories and tales of generations which have no end, (but) which rather subserve contentions, and not edification in the faith of Aloha.

neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith?

5 But the end of the commandment is love, from a pure heart, and from a good conscience, and from genuine faith.

but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and sincere faith;

6 And from them that have erred, and have declined to vain words,

from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;

7 seeking to become teachers of the law, while they understand not what they speak, nor that concerning which they contend.

desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.

8 But we know that the law is good, if a man according to the law converse in it;

But we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,

9 knowing that against the righteous the law is not set, but against the evil, and rebels, and the wicked, and sinners, and the dishonest, and those who are not pure, and those who strike their fathers, and those who strike their mothers, and murderers,

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,

10 and fornicators, and liers with men, and stealers of the free, and liars, and doers against an oath

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;

11 and whatever (else) is opposed to the healthful doctrine of the gospel of the glory of the blessed Aloha, with which I have been intrusted.

according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

12 And I thank him who hath empowered me, our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, who accounted me faithful, and constituted me his minister; me,

And I thank him who enabled me, Meshikha Yeshua our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

13 who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious; but I received mercy, because while ignorant I did it, without faith.

although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

14 But in me hath abounded the grace of our Lord, and faith and love which are in Jeshu Meshiha.

The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Meshikha Yeshua.

15 Faithful is the word, and worthy of reception that Jeshu the Meshiha came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am first.

The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Meshikha Yeshua came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

16 But for this he had compassion upon me, that in me first Jeshu Meshiha might show all long-suffering, as an exhibition for them who should believe in him unto everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)

However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Yeshua Meshikha might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)

17 But to the King who is eternal, incorruptible, and unseen, who is one Aloha, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

18 This commandment I commit to thee, my son Timotheos, according to the early prophecies which were concerning thee, that thou mayest war through them this good warfare with faith and with a good conscience.

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;

19 For those who this have put away from them of faith have been emptied;

holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;

20 as Hymeneos and Alexandros, whom I have delivered to Satana, that they may not blaspheme.

of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexandros; whom I delivered to Satana, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
