1 Timoteo 4
1 Ita, nalawag nga ibagbaga ti Espiritu a kadagiti maud-udi a tiempo, panawanto dagiti tattao ti pammati ken ipangagda dagiti manangallilaw nga espiritu ken dagiti sursuro dagiti demonio.
Now the Spirit expressly declares that in later times some will fall away from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and the teachings of demons;
2 babaen iti inuulbod a kinamanaginsisingpet. Mamarkaanto dagiti bukodda a nakem.
through the hypocrisy of men who teach falsely and have their own consciences seared as with a hot iron;
3 Paritandanto a makiasawa ken umawat kadagiti taraon a pinarsua ti Dios a maipaay iti panangibingay a mabuyogan iti panagyaman dagiti mamati ken makaammo iti kinapudno.
forbidding people to marry, and insisting on abstinence from foods which God has created to be partaken of, with thankfulness, by those who believe and have a clear knowledge of the truth.
4 Ta nasayaat ti tunggal banag a pinarsua ti Dios. Awan mailaksid kadagiti laklak-amentayo a nabuyogan ti panagyaman.
For everything that God has created is good, and nothing is to be cast aside, if only it is received with thanksgiving.
5 Ta daytoy ket naidaton babaen iti sao ti Dios ken kararag.
For it is made holy by the word of God and by prayer.
6 No ikabilmo dagitoy a banbanag iti sangoanan dagiti kakabsat, agbalinkanto a nasayaat nga adipen ni Jesu-Cristo. Ta mapappapigsaka babaen iti sasao ti pammati ken babaen iti nasayaat a sursuro a sinurotmo.
If you warn the brethren of these dangers you will be a good and faithful servant of Christ Jesus, inwardly feeding on the lessons of the faith and of the sound teaching of which you have been, and are, so close a follower.
7 Ngem saanmo nga awaten dagiti inuulbod nga istoria a pagaayat dagiti babbaket. Ngem ketdi, sanayem ti bagim iti nadiosan a panagbiag.
But worldly stories, fit only for credulous old women, have nothing to do with.
8 Ta ti panangsanay iti bagi ket bassit laeng ti pakausaranna, ngem ti nadiosan a panagbiag ket adda pakausaranna para iti amin a banbanag. Addaan daytoy iti kari a para iti daytoy a biag ken iti umay a biag.
Train yourself in godliness. Exercise for the body is not useless, but godliness is useful in every respect, possessing, as it does, the promise of Life now and of the Life which is soon coming.
9 Daytoy a mensahe ket mapagtalkan ken maikari unay nga awaten.
Faithful is this saying and deserving of universal acceptance:
10 Ta daytoy ti gapuna nga ikarkarigatan ken igagaedmi unay ti agtrabaho. Ta adda talekmi iti sibibiag a Dios, nga isu ti Mangisalakan kadagiti amin a tattao, ngem nangnangruna kadagiti namati.
and here is the motive of our toiling and wrestling, because we have our hopes fixed on the ever-living God, who is the Saviour of all mankind, and especially of believers.
11 Iwaragawag ken isurom dagitoy a banbanag.
Command this and teach this.
12 Saanmo nga ipalubos nga adda manglais kenka iti kina-agtutubom. Ngem ketdi, agbalinka a pagwadan kadagiti mamati, iti sao, iti aramid, iti ayat, iti kinapudno ken iti kinadalus.
Let no one think slightingly of you because you are a young man; but in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, be an example for your fellow Christians to imitate.
13 Agingga nga umayak, asikasuem ti pannakaibasa, ti panangbagbaga, ken ti panangisuro.
Till I come, bestow your attention on reading, exhortation and teaching.
14 Saanmo a baybay-an ti sagut nga adda kenka, a naited kenka babaen iti padto, a nabuyogan iti panangipatay kadagiti ima dagiti panglakayen.
Do not be careless about the gifts with which you are endowed, which were conferred on you through a divine revelation when the hands of the elders were placed upon you.
15 Salimetmetam dagitoy a banbanag. Makikaaddaka kadakuada, tapno maiparang kadagiti amin a tattao ti panagdur-asmo.
Habitually practise these duties, and be absorbed in them; so that your growing proficiency in them may be evident to all.
16 Alwadam ti panagtignaymo ken ti salwadam ti sursuro. Agtuloyka kadagitoy a banbanag. Ta babaen iti panangaramidmo iti kasta, isalakanmonto ti bagim ken dagiti dumngeg kenka.
Be on your guard as to yourself and your teaching. Persevere in these things; for by doing this you will make certain your own salvation and that of your hearers.
