< 1 Timothy 1 >
1 PAUL, a legate of Jesus the Messiah, by the command of God our life-giver, and of the Messiah, 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 son in the faith: grace and mercy and peace, from God our Father, and the Messiah, Jesus our Lord.
3 When I was going into Macedonia, I requested thee to remain at Ephesus, and to charge certain persons not to teach different doctrines;
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 and not to throw themselves into fables and stories about genealogies, of which there is no end, which produce contention rather than edification in the faith of God.
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 Now the end of the command is love, which is from a pure heart, and from a good conscience, and from true 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 But from these some have strayed, and have turned aside to vain words;
Te meser ruma raꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ ma nggari hendi nenoriꞌ naa. Boe ma ara reu ngganggari fai a noꞌ a nereresit ma olaꞌ baro-leli.
7 because they wished to be teachers of the law, while they understood not what they speak, nor the thing about which they contend.
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 Now, we know, that the law is a good thing, if a man conduct himself in it, according to the law,
Basa hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, basa baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalane nara, maloleꞌ! Sadꞌi hita pake se tungga Lamatualain masud na no matetuꞌ.
9 he knowing that the law was not established for the righteous, but for the evil, and the rebellious, and the ungodly, and the sinful, and the perverse and for the impure, and for smiters of their fathers and smiters of their mothers, and 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 and for whoremongers, and for copulators with males, and for the stealers of free people, and for liars, and for violators of oaths, and for whatever is contrary to sound doctrine,
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 namely that of the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I am intrusted.
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 strengthened me, even our Lord Jesus the Messiah; who accounted me faithful, and appointed me to his ministry;
Au oꞌe makasi nae-nae neu hita Malanggan Yesus Kristus huu Ana namahere au, ma tao au bisa ulalao ue-tataon.
13 me I say, who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and a reviler; but I obtained mercy, because I did it while ignorant and without faith.
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 And in me the grace of our Lord abounded, and faith and love, which is in Jesus the Messiah.
15 Faithful is the declaration, and worthy to be received, that Jesus the Messiah came into the world to give life to sinners, of whom I was the primary.
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 But for this cause had he mercy on me, that in me first Jesus the Messiah might display all his long suffering, for an example to them who were to believe on him unto life eternal. (aiōnios )
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 )
17 And to the king eternal, incorruptible, and invisible, the sole God, be honor and glory for ever and ever! Amen. (aiōn )
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 )
18 This injunction I commit to thee, my son Timothy, according to the former predictions concerning thee, that in them thou mightest war this 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 in faith and a good conscience; for they who have repudiated this, have become destitute of 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 like Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered up to Satan, that they may learn not to be blasphemers.
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.
