< 1 Timothy 4 >

1 Now the Spirit clearly says that in later times some people will leave the faith and pay attention to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons
Duh pa izrečno govori, da bodejo v poslednjih časih nekateri odpadli od vere, držeč se lažnjivih klatiduhov in naukov hudičevih,
2 in lying hypocrisy. Their own consciences will be branded.
V licemérstvu lažigovórnikov, zaznamovanih v lastni vesti,
3 They will forbid to marry and to receive foods that God created for sharing with thanksgiving among those who believe and who know the truth.
Ki branijo ženiti se in možiti, in zapovedujejo zdrževati se jedil, katera je Bog vstvaril za uživanje sè zahvaljevanjem vernim in njim, ki so spoznali resnico.
4 For everything created by God is good. Nothing that we take with thanksgiving is to be rejected.
Kajti vsaka stvar Božja je dobra in nič ni da bi se zamotalo, ako se prejemlje sè zahvaljevanjem;
5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
Kajti posvečuje se po besedi Božji in molitvi.
6 If you place these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Jesus Christ. For you are being nourished by the words of faith and by the good teaching that you have followed.
To naročajoč bratom, bodeš dober pomočnik Jezusa Kristusa, vzrejen v besedah vere, in dobrega nauka, po katerem hodiš.
7 But reject worldly stories loved by old women. Instead, train yourself in godliness.
Posvetne pa in starobabje basni zavračaj; vadi se pa v pobožnosti.
8 For bodily training is a little useful, but godliness is useful for all things. It holds promise for this life now and the life to come.
Kajti telesna vaja je za malo koristna; pobožnost pa je za vse koristna, ker ima obljubo življenja sedanjega in prihodnjega.
9 This message is trustworthy and worthy of full acceptance.
Resnična beseda in vsega sprejema vredna;
10 For it is for this that we struggle and work very hard. For we have hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, but especially of believers.
Kajti za to se tudi trudimo in sramotimo, ker smo upanje svoje postavili v Boga živega, kateri je rešitelj vseh ljudî, sosebno vérnih.
11 Proclaim and teach these things.
Zapovedúj to in úči!
12 Let no one despise your youth. Instead, be an example for those who believe, in speech, conduct, love, faithfulness, and purity.
Nihče naj ne zaničuje mladosti tvoje, nego zgled bodi vérnim v besedi, v vedenji, v ljubezni, v duhu, v veri, v čistosti.
13 Until I come, attend to the reading, to the exhortation, and to the teaching.
Dokler pridem, skrbi za branje, opominjanje, podučevanje.
14 Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you through prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the elders.
Ne zanemarjaj darú v sebi, kateri ti je bil dan po preroštvu s pokladanjem rok starejšinstva.
15 Care for these things. Be in them, so that your progress may be evident to all people.
To premišljaj, v tem bivaj, da bode napredek tvoj očiten v vsem.
16 Give careful attention to yourself and to the teaching. Continue in these things. For by doing so, you will save yourself and those who listen to you.
Pazi nase in na úk; stanoviten bodi v tem; kajti to delajoč rešil bodeš sebe in njé, ki te poslušajo.
