1 Timothy 2
1 The first (OR, most important) thing that I urge [you to tell your congregation] is that [Christians] should continually ask [God] for [what they need]. They should also pray to God [for all other people], and they should be thanking [God].
Busa una sa tanan, nag-awhag ako pag-ayo nga maghangyo, mag-ampo, mangamuyo, ug magpasalamat kamo alang sa tanan nga mga tawo,
2 Specifically, they should pray for rulers and for all [other people] who (are in important government positions/have authority), in order that [God will help them to rule]. [As God enables the rulers to rule well], we can live very peaceably as we conduct ours lives doing all that God and others consider to be right and proper.
alang sa mga hari ug sa tanan nga adunay gahum, aron malinawon ug hilom ang atong pagkinabuhi nga disonon sa tanan ug adunay dignindad.
3 It is good [to pray like that, and] it pleases God, who saves us, when we pray like that.
Kini maayo ug madawat sa Dios nga atong Manluluwas.
4 He desires to save everyone. He wants everyone to fully know [and accept] his true [message].
Buot niya nga ang tanang mga tawo maluwas ug makahibalo sa kamatuoran.
5 He is the [only] one [true] God! And there is [only] one person who talks to God on behalf of people. That person is Christ Jesus, who [himself] is a man!
Kay usa ra ang Dios, ug usa ra ang tigpataliwala sa Dios ug sa tawo, nga mao ang tawo nga si Cristo Jesus,
6 He gave (his [life/himself]) [as a sacrifice] in order to ransom/redeem all [people], which showed at the proper time [that God desires that all people be saved] {[to save all people]}.
nga naghatag sa iyang kaugalingon nga tubos alang sa tanan, ang saksi sa sakto nga panahon.
7 As for me, he appointed me to declare [this message] and to be an apostle. I am telling the truth [about God appointing me]. I am not lying! He appointed me to teach the non-Jews that they should believe God’s true message.
Tungod niini nga tuyo, ako, mismo, nahimo nga mantala ug apostol. Gasulti ako sa kamatuoran; wala ako mamakak. Magtutudlo ako sa mga Gentil sa pagtuo ug kamatuoran.
8 I desire that in every place [where believers worship], the men who pray publicly [MTY] should be men who are not practicing sin. When they pray, they should not be angry [with anyone] and they should not doubt [that God will answer] their prayers (OR, should not quarrel with anyone).
Busa, buot nako nga ang mga lalaki sa tanang dapit mag-ampo ug magtaas sa ilang putling mga kamot nga walay kapungot ug duhaduha.
9 [I would like that] the clothing that women wear be (modest and sensible/proper and appropriate) [DOU]. I want them to not fix their hair in fancy/elaborate ways, nor wear gold [jewelry], nor pearls, nor expensive clothing [in order that they may make themselves attractive].
Mao sad sa mga babaye buot nako nga magsinina ug tarong, nga dili law-ay ug magapugong sa ilang kaugalingon, dili sa mga buhok nga sinapid, o pagsul-ob sa mga bulawan, o perlas, o mahal nga mga sinina,
10 Instead, they should be doing things that women who (claim to/say that they) worship God should do; that is, they should be doing good deeds.
kondili pinaagi sa angay sa mga babaye nga magpaila sa ilang pagkadiosnon pinaagi sa maayong mga buluhaton.
11 Women must learn to [listen] quietly [during the worship services] and to fully subject themselves [to the leaders of the congregation].
Ang babaye kinahanglan magtuon sa paghilom ug magtuman sa tanan.
12 I do not permit women to teach [men spiritual truth publicly], and I do not permit them to have authority over men. Instead, [I desire] that women [listen] quietly [during the worship services].
Dili nako tugutan nga ang babaye motudlo ug magmando sa lalaki, kondili maghilom lang.
13 Keep in mind that God made Adam first, and afterwards he made Eve,
Kay si Adan mao ang una nga giporma, ug unya dayon si Eba.
14 and that it was not Adam whom [Satan] deceived. As a result of the woman being deceived, she sinned. She did what God had told her not to do.
Ug si Adan wala nailad, apan ang babaye nailad pag-ayo sa kalapasan.
15 But even though she did that, now women will be saved {God will accept women} as they bear children if they continue to trust [God] and if they continue to love others, and if they continue to live in a way that is [more and more] (acceptable to God/like God wants them to), and if they continue to be modest.
Bisan pa niini, maluwas siya pinaagi sa pagpanganak, kung magpadayon sila sa pagtuoug paghigugma ug pagkabalaan nga adunay maayong paghunahuna.
