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].
Pavel, apoštol Ježíše Krista, podle zřízení Boha spasitele našeho a pána Jezukrista, naděje naší,
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.
Timoteovi, vlastnímu synu u víře: Milost, milosrdenství a pokoj od Boha Otce našeho a od Krista Ježíše Pána našeho.
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].
Jakož jsem prosil tebe, abys pozůstal v Efezu, když jsem šel do Macedonie, viziž, abys přikázal některým jiného učení neučiti,
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]).
Ani oblibovati básní a vypravování rodů, čemuž konce není, odkudž jen hádky pocházejí, více nežli vzdělání Boží, kteréž jest u víře,
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].
Ješto konec přikázání jest láska z srdce čistého a z svědomí dobrého a z víry neošemetné.
6 There are some people who have turned away from these true teachings. As a result, they [just] discuss what is useless.
Od čehož někteří jako od cíle pobloudivše, uchýlili se k marnomluvnosti,
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).
Chtíce býti učitelé Zákona, a nerozumějíce, ani co mluví, ani čeho zastávají.
8 We know that the laws [that God gave to Moses are] good if people consider correctly [what God intended them for].
Víme pak, že dobrý jest Zákon, když by ho kdo náležitě užíval,
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.
Toto znaje, že spravedlivému není uložen Zákon, ale nepravým a nepoddaným, bezbožným a hříšníkům, nešlechetným a nečistým, mordéřům otců svých a matek, vražedlníkům,
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.
Smilníkům, samcoložníkům, těm, kteříž lidi kradou, lhářům, křivým přísežníkům, a jest-li co jiného, ješto by bylo naodpor zdravému učení,
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.
Jenž jest podle slavného evangelium blahoslaveného Boha, kteréžto mně svěřeno jest.
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].
Protož děkuji tomu, kterýž mne zmocnil, totiž Kristu Ježíši Pánu našemu, že mne za tak věrného soudil, aby mne v službě té postavil,
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].
Ješto jsem prve byl ruhač, a protivník, a ukrutník. Ale milosrdenství jsem došel; neb jsem to z neznámosti činil v nevěře.
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].
Rozhojnila se pak náramně milost Pána našeho, s věrou a s milováním, kteréž jest v Kristu Ježíši.
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.
Věrnáť jest tato řeč a všelijak oblíbení hodná, že Kristus Ježíš přišel na svět, aby hříšné spasil, z nichžto já první jsem.
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)
Ale proto milosrdenství jsem došel, aby na mně prvním dokázal Ježíš Kristus všeliké dobrotivosti, ku příkladu těm, kteříž mají uvěřiti v něho k životu věčnému. (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)
Protož Králi věků nesmrtelnému, neviditelnému, samému moudrému Bohu budiž čest i sláva na věky věků. 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].
Totoť přikázání poroučím tobě, synu Timotee, totiž abys podle předešlých o tobě proroctví bojoval v tom dobrý boj,
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.
Maje víru a dobré svědomí, kteréžto někteří potrativše, zhynuli u víře.
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 nichžto jest Hymeneus a Alexander, kteréž jsem vydal satanu, aby trestáni jsouce, učili se nerouhati.
