1 Timothy 1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
Paul, yon apot a Kris Jésus selon kòmandman Bondye a, Sovè nou an, e a Kris Jésus ki se esperans nou.
2 to Timotheus — genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord,
A Timothée, vrè pitit mwen nan lafwa mwen an: lagras, mizerikòd, ak lapè ki soti nan Bondye Papa a, e Senyè nou an, Jésus Kri.
3 according as I did exhort thee to remain in Ephesus — I going on to Macedonia — that thou mightest charge certain not to teach any other thing,
Jan mwen te ankouraje ou sou depa mwen pou Macédoine nan, rete an Éphèse pou nou kapab enstwi sèten moun pou yo pa enstwi yon lòt doktrin nèf;
4 nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than the building up of God that is in faith: —
ni pou yo pa prete atansyon a fo istwa ak jeneyaloji ki pa janm fini, e ki ankouraje espekilasyon olye pou yo fè avanse jerans Bondye pa lafwa a.
5 And the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned,
Men bi a enstriksyon nou an se lanmou ki soti nan yon kè san tach, bon konsyans ak yon lafwa ki sensè.
6 from which certain, having swerved, did turn aside to vain discourse,
Paske kèk moun, nan egare kite bagay sa yo pou vin detounen nan diskou ki pa pote fwi,
7 willing to be teachers of law, not understanding either the things they say, nor concerning what they asseverate,
ki ta vle mèt k ap enstwi lalwa, menmsi yo pa menm konprann ni sa y ap di a, ni sijè ke yo pale avèk plen konfyans lan.
8 and we have known that the law [is] good, if any one may use it lawfully;
Men nou konnen ke Lalwa bon, si yon moun itilize li nan yon fason lejitim.
9 having known this, that for a righteous man law is not set, but for lawless and insubordinate persons, ungodly and sinners, impious and profane, parricides and matricides, men-slayers,
Reyalize ke Lalwa pa fèt pou yon nonm ki dwat, men pou sila ki san prensip e ki rebèl yo, pou sila ki san Bondye ak pechè yo, pou sila ki pa sen ak mechan yo, pou sila ki touye papa oswa manman yo, pou asasen yo,
10 whoremongers, sodomites, men-stealers, liars, perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that to sound doctrine is adverse,
epi pou moun imoral ak moun k ap mennen vi gason ak gason, fanm ak fanm yo, e sila ki fè komès esklav ak mantè yo, e sila ki bay fo temwayaj ak tout lòt kalite bagay ki kontrè a bon doktrin yo,
11 according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.
selon levanjil laglwa Bondye ki beni an, li menm ke yo te konfye m nan.
12 And I give thanks to him who enabled me — Christ Jesus our Lord — that he did reckon me stedfast, having put [me] to the ministration,
Mwen remèsye Kris Jésus Senyè nou an, ki te ranfòse mwen, paske Li te konsidere mwen fidèl e te mete m an sèvis:
13 who before was speaking evil, and persecuting, and insulting, but I found kindness, because, being ignorant, I did [it] in unbelief,
malgre ke avan sa, mwen te yon blasfematè, yon pèsekitè e yon agresè vyolan. Malgre sa, mwen te resevwa gras akoz mwen te aji avèk inyorans nan enkwayans.
14 and exceedingly abound did the grace of our Lord, with faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus:
Konsa, lagras Senyè nou an te plis ke anpil, avèk lafwa ak lanmou ki twouve nan Kris Jésus a.
15 stedfast [is] the word, and of all acceptation worthy, that Christ Jesus came to the world to save sinners — first of whom I am;
Li se yon vrè pawòl, ki merite aksepte pa tout moun, ke Kris Jésus te vini nan mond lan pou sove pechè yo, pami sila yo, mwen menm se premye a.
16 but because of this I found kindness, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all long-suffering, for a pattern of those about to believe on him to life age-during: (aiōnios g166)
Malgre tout, se pou rezon sa a, ke mwen te twouve gras; pouke nan mwen, kòm chèf pami pechè yo, Jésus Kris ta kapab montre pasyans pafè Li a, kòm yon egzanp pou sila ki ta kwè nan Li yo pou lavi etènèl. (aiōnios g166)
17 and to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, [is] honour and glory — to the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Koulye a, pou Wa etènèl la, imòtèl la, envizib la, sèl Bondye a; lonè ak laglwa pou tout tan e pou tout tan. Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 This charge I commit to thee, child Timotheus, according to the prophesies that went before upon thee, that thou mayest war in them the good warfare,
Lòd sa a mwen konfye a ou menm, Timothée, fis mwen an, ki an akò avèk pwofesi a konsènan ou menm ki te fèt deja, ke pa yo menm, ou te mennen bon konba a,
19 having faith and a good conscience, which certain having thrust away, concerning the faith did make shipwreck,
nan kenbe lafwa ak yon bon konsyans, ke kèk moun te rejte, e te fè nofraj nan sa ki gen rapò a lafwa yo.
20 of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I did deliver to the Adversary, that they might be instructed not to speak evil.
Pami sila yo, se Hyménée ak Alexandre, ke mwen te livre a Satan pou yo kab aprann pou yo pa fè blasfèm.
