Προς Τιμοθεον Α΄ 1
1 παυλοσ αποστολοσ ιησου χριστου κατ επιταγην θεου σωτηροσ ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου τησ ελπιδοσ ημων
Pavl an Apostle of Iesvs Christ, by the commandement of God our Sauiour, and of our Lord Iesus Christ our hope,
2 τιμοθεω γνησιω τεκνω εν πιστει χαρισ ελεοσ ειρηνη απο θεου πατροσ ημων και χριστου ιησου του κυριου ημων
Vnto Timotheus my naturall sonne in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father, and from Christ Iesus our Lord.
3 καθωσ παρεκαλεσα σε προσμειναι εν εφεσω πορευομενοσ εισ μακεδονιαν ινα παραγγειλησ τισιν μη ετεροδιδασκαλειν
As I besought thee to abide still in Ephesus, when I departed into Macedonia, so doe, that thou mayest warne some, that they teach none other doctrine,
4 μηδε προσεχειν μυθοισ και γενεαλογιαισ απεραντοισ αιτινεσ ζητησεισ παρεχουσιν μαλλον η οικονομιαν θεου την εν πιστει
Neither that they giue heede to fables and genealogies which are endles, which breede questions rather then godly edifying which is by fayth.
5 το δε τελοσ τησ παραγγελιασ εστιν αγαπη εκ καθαρασ καρδιασ και συνειδησεωσ αγαθησ και πιστεωσ ανυποκριτου
For the end of the commandement is loue out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith vnfained.
6 ων τινεσ αστοχησαντεσ εξετραπησαν εισ ματαιολογιαν
From the which things some haue erred, and haue turned vnto vaine iangling.
7 θελοντεσ ειναι νομοδιδασκαλοι μη νοουντεσ μητε α λεγουσιν μητε περι τινων διαβεβαιουνται
They would be doctours of the Law, and yet vnderstande not what they speake, neither whereof they affirme.
8 οιδαμεν δε οτι καλοσ ο νομοσ εαν τισ αυτω νομιμωσ χρηται
And we knowe, that the Law is good, if a man vse it lawfully,
9 ειδωσ τουτο οτι δικαιω νομοσ ου κειται ανομοισ δε και ανυποτακτοισ ασεβεσιν και αμαρτωλοισ ανοσιοισ και βεβηλοισ πατρολωαισ και μητρολωαισ ανδροφονοισ
Knowing this, that the Lawe is not giuen vnto a righteous man, but vnto the lawles and disobedient, to the vngodly, and to sinners, to the vnholy, and to the prophane, to murtherers of fathers and mothers, to manslayers,
10 πορνοισ αρσενοκοιταισ ανδραποδισταισ ψευσταισ επιορκοισ και ει τι ετερον τη υγιαινουση διδασκαλια αντικειται
To whoremongers, to buggerers, to menstealers, to lyers, to the periured, and if there be any other thing, that is contrary to wholesome doctrine,
11 κατα το ευαγγελιον τησ δοξησ του μακαριου θεου ο επιστευθην εγω
Which is according to the glorious Gospel of the blessed God, which is committed vnto me.
12 και χαριν εχω τω ενδυναμωσαντι με χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων οτι πιστον με ηγησατο θεμενοσ εισ διακονιαν
Therefore I thanke him, which hath made me strong, that is, Christ Iesus our Lord: for he counted me faithfull, and put me in his seruice:
13 τον προτερον οντα βλασφημον και διωκτην και υβριστην αλλα ηλεηθην οτι αγνοων εποιησα εν απιστια
When before I was a blasphemer, and a persecuter, and an oppresser: but I was receiued to mercie: for I did it ignorantly through vnbeliefe.
14 υπερεπλεονασεν δε η χαρισ του κυριου ημων μετα πιστεωσ και αγαπησ τησ εν χριστω ιησου
But the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and loue, which is in Christ Iesus.
15 πιστοσ ο λογοσ και πασησ αποδοχησ αξιοσ οτι χριστοσ ιησουσ ηλθεν εισ τον κοσμον αμαρτωλουσ σωσαι ων πρωτοσ ειμι εγω
This is a true saying, and by all meanes worthy to be receiued, that Christ Iesus came into the worlde to saue sinners, of whom I am chiefe.
16 αλλα δια τουτο ηλεηθην ινα εν εμοι πρωτω ενδειξηται ιησουσ χριστοσ την πασαν μακροθυμιαν προσ υποτυπωσιν των μελλοντων πιστευειν επ αυτω εισ ζωην αιωνιον (aiōnios g166)
Notwithstanding, for this cause was I receiued to mercie, that Iesus Christ should first shewe on me all long suffering vnto the ensample of them, which shall in time to come beleeue in him vnto eternall life. (aiōnios g166)
17 τω δε βασιλει των αιωνων αφθαρτω αορατω μονω σοφω θεω τιμη και δοξα εισ τουσ αιωνασ των αιωνων αμην (aiōn g165)
Nowe vnto the King euerlasting, immortall, inuisible, vnto God onely wise, be honour and glorie, for euer, and euer, Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 ταυτην την παραγγελιαν παρατιθεμαι σοι τεκνον τιμοθεε κατα τασ προαγουσασ επι σε προφητειασ ινα στρατευη εν αυταισ την καλην στρατειαν
This commandement commit I vnto thee, sonne Timotheus, according to the prophecies, which went before vpon thee, that thou by them shouldest fight a good fight,
19 εχων πιστιν και αγαθην συνειδησιν ην τινεσ απωσαμενοι περι την πιστιν εναυαγησαν
Hauing faith and a good conscience, which some haue put away, and as concerning faith, haue made shipwracke.
20 ων εστιν υμεναιοσ και αλεξανδροσ ουσ παρεδωκα τω σατανα ινα παιδευθωσιν μη βλασφημειν
Of whom is Hymeneus, and Alexander, whom I haue deliuered vnto Satan, that they might learne not to blaspheme.
