1 Timothy 1
1 [I], Paul, [am writing this letter. You know that] I am an apostle. I [represent] Christ Jesus because God and Christ Jesus commanded me to do it. God is the one who saved us, and Jesus is the one for whom we are confidently waiting [to return].
Paweł, Apostoł Jezusa Chrystusa podług rozrządzenia Boga, zbawiciela naszego, i Pana Jezusa Chrystusa, który jest nadzieja nasza,
2 [You], Timothy, [are like] [MET] a true son [to me] because [you] trusted [in Christ after I told you about him]. [I pray/desire that] God, who is our Father, and Christ Jesus, who is our Lord, will [continue to act] kindly and mercifully to you, and [that they will give you inner] peace.
Tymoteuszowi, własnemu synowi w wierze, niech będzie łaska, miłosierdzie, pokój od Boga, Ojca naszego, i Chrystusa Jezusa, Pana naszego.
3 [I urge you now], just like I urged you when I was going to Macedonia [province], that you remain there in Ephesus [city]. Stay there so that you may command certain persons [who teach other believers] that they not teach false [doctrines].
Jakom cię prosił, abyś został w Efezie, gdym szedł do Macedonii, patrzże, abyś rozkazał niektórym, żeby inaczej nie uczyli.
4 And tell people to not continually give their attention to stories [that tell about our ancestors], stories in which there are (genealogies/lists of our ancestors’ names) that [seem to be] endless. [You must command your congregation not to think that these stories are valuable], because [whenever people think] that, they [just] start arguing about things uselessly, instead of [teaching] God’s plan, which [is concerned with] what we believe (OR, which [we know because] we trust [in Christ]).
I nie bawili się baśniami i wywodami nieskończonemi rodzaju, które więcej sporów przynoszą, niż zbudowania Bożego, które w wierze zależy.
5 [Teach them] to have pure desires [MTY] and [so to know that God] approves of what they do, and to sincerely believe [the true teaching]. By doing that, [they will] love [God well].
Lecz koniec przykazania jest miłość z czystego serca i z sumienia dobrego, i z wiary nieobłudnej.
6 There are some people who have turned away from these true teachings. As a result, they [just] discuss what is useless.
Czego niektórzy jako celu uchybiwszy, obrócili się ku próżnomówności.
7 They desire to teach the laws [that God gave to Moses], but they do not understand what they are really saying, or the things about which they (confidently speak/say that they understand well).
Chcąc być nauczycielami zakonu, nie rozumieją ani tego, co mówią, ani co za pewne twierdzą.
8 We know that the laws [that God gave to Moses are] good if people consider correctly [what God intended them for].
A wiemy, że dobry jest zakon, jeźliby go kto przystojnie używał,
9 We must remember that God did not give Moses those laws in order [to condemn] righteous people. By those laws he [condemns people who act as though there were no] laws and who refuse to obey [anyone. He condemns] those who do not revere God and those who sin habitually. [By them he condemns] those who refuse to perform rituals that are pleasing to God and who show no respect for religion. [He condemns] those who murder their fathers and who murder their mothers and who murder [other] people.
Wiedząc to, że sprawiedliwemu nie jest zakon postanowiony, ale niesprawiedliwym i niepoddanym, niepobożnym i grzesznikom, złośliwym i nieczystym, ojcomordercom i matkomordercom, mężobójcom,
10 [He condemns] those who are sexually immoral and those who are homosexuals. [He condemns] those who kidnap/steal people [in order to make them slaves]. [He condemns] those who lie and those who promise something strongly but do not do what they promised. He condemns every other action that is contrary to our true teaching.
Wszetecznikom, samcołożnikom, ludokradcom, kłamcom, krzywoprzysiężcom, i jeźli co innego jest przeciwnego zdrowej nauce.
11 This is what we teach people when we tell them the glorious/wonderful message about Christ that our awesome God [has revealed] and that he gave to me to teach.
Według chwalebnej Ewangielii błogosławionego Boga, która mi jest zwierzona.
12 I am grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord who enabled me to do this work, because he considered that I could be trusted. So he appointed me in order that I [would serve him].
Przetoż dziękuję temu, który mię umocnił, Chrystusowi Jezusowi, Panu naszemu, iż mię za wiernego osądził, na usługiwanie postanowiwszy mię.
13 Formerly I said evil things [about him], I caused [his people] to suffer, and I acted very cruelly toward them. But [Christ acted] in a kind way toward me since I (acted ignorantly/did not know that I was doing wrong) because I did not believe [in him].
Którym pierwej był bluźniercą i prześladowcą, i gwałtownikiem; alem miłosierdzia dostąpił, bom to z niewiadomości czynił, będąc w niewierze.
14 Our Lord kindly did for me what I did not deserve, so that I now believe [in Christ Jesus] and I love others (OR, him) [because I belong to him].
Lecz nader obfitowała łaska Pana naszego z wiarą i z miłością, która jest w Chrystusie Jezusie.
15 [Something that all we believers] say is certainly true and is worthy for us to fully accept is that Christ Jesus came into the world in order to save sinful people [so that God would not punish them for their sins]. As for me, I [consider that I have sinned] more than all others.
Wierna jest ta mowa i wszelkiego przyjęcia godna, iż Chrystus Jezus przyszedł na świat, aby grzeszników zbawił, z których jam jest pierwszy.
16 Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me in order that he might demonstrate [to people that he is perfectly patient with them]. He did that by his being patient with me, one who has sinned worse than everyone else. He wanted what he did for me (to be an example/to demonstrate his patience) to people who would [later] believe in him, and as a result would live forever. (aiōnios g166)
Alem dlatego miłosierdzia dostąpił, aby na mnie pierwszym okazał Jezus Chrystus wszelką cierpliwość na przykład tym, którzy weń uwierzyć mają ku żywotowi wiecznemu. (aiōnios g166)
17 I desire that people will honor and praise the only [true] God forever! Even though no one can see him, he is the King who rules for all time, who will never die! (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)
Przetoż królowi wieków nieśmiertelnemu, niewidzialnemu samemu mądremu Bogu, niech będzie cześć i chwała na wieki wieków. Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 Timothy, you [are like] [MET] a son [to me]. So, (based on/in accordance with) what [someone] previously (prophesied/told what God revealed to them) about you, I am instructing you [to strongly oppose those who teach false doctrines. You should oppose them like] [MET] a soldier (fights strongly against/opposes) [those who attack his countrymen].
Toć rozkazanie zalecam, synu Tymoteuszu! abyś według proroctw, które uprzedziły o tobie, bojował w nich on dobry bój,
19 Continue to believe [the true teaching] and do only what you know to be right! Remember that some people have (pushed aside/rejected) the true teaching. As a result, they no longer believe [MET] what is true.
Mając wiarę i dobre sumienie, które niektórzy odrzuciwszy, szkodę podjęli w wierze;
20 Among the ones who have done that are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I put in the hands of Satan, in order that [when Satan punishes them] they may learn not to teach wrong teaching.
Z których jest Hymeneusz i Aleksander, którychem oddał szatanowi, aby pokarani będąc, nauczyli się nie bluźnić.
