Sie Timothy 1

1 Ma sel Paul, sie mwet sap lun Christ Jesus fal nu ke sap lun God Mwet Lango lasr, ac Christ Jesus, su mwe finsrak lasr —

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Savior, and Lord Jesus Christ, [who is] our hope;

2 Nu sel Timothy, tulik pwaye nutik in lulalfongi: Lungkulang, pakoten ac misla nu sum sin God Papa, ac Christ Jesus Leum lasr.

To Timothy, [my] own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

3 Nga lungse kom in mutana Ephesus, oana ke nga tuh kwafe sum ke nga fahsr in som nu Macedonia. Kutu sin mwet we ah elos luti ke mwe luti sutuu, ac kom enenu in sap elos in tui.

As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

4 Fahk nu selos elos in tia sisla pacl lalos ke sramsram matu lusrongten lalos, oayapa ke tak sou loeloes ke fwil matu lalos su mwe na purakak akukuin, ac tia ma ac kasru mwet nu ke orekma lun God, su ma ke lulalfongi mukena.

Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith; [so do].

5 Sripen sap ku se inge ma in mokleak lungse, su tuku ke inse nasnas ac elah wo ac lulalfongi pwaye.

Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned:

6 Kutu mwet uh forla liki ma inge ac kuhfla nu ke kaskas lusrongten.

From which some having swerved, have turned aside to vain jangling;

7 Elos lungse tuh elos in mwet luti ke ma sap lun God, a elos tia kalem ke ma elos sifacna fahk, ku ke kalmen ma elos lulalfongi yohk kac.

Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor concerning what they affirm.

8 Kut etu lah Ma Sap uh wo, fin orekmakinyuk oana ma oakwuk nu kac.

But we know that the law [is] good, if a man useth it lawfully;

9 Kut enenu in esam lah ma sap uh tia orekla nu sin mwet suwoswos, a ma nu sin mwet su kunaus ma sap, mwet orekma koluk, mwet su nikin God, mwet koluk, mwet tia etu alu, mwet pilesru ma lun ngun, mwet su uniya papa ac nina, mwet akmas,

Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers, and murderers of mothers, for man-slayers,

10 mwet kosro, mukul ma oru ouiya sufal nu sin mukul, mwet su kukakin mwet tuh elos in mwet kohs, mwet kaskas kikiap ac mwet orek loh kikiap, ac kutepacna mwet su oru ma in lain mwe luti pwaye.

For lewd persons, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men-stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,

11 Mwe luti inge oasr ke Wosasu se su ituku nu sik in fahkak, aok Pweng Wolana sin God su fal in kaksakinyuk.

According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

12 Nga sang kulo nu sin Christ Jesus Leum lasr, su akkeyeyu ke orekma luk. Nga sang kulo nu sel tuh el oekyu mu nga fal ac el srisrngiyuwi in kulansap nu sel,

And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

13 nga finne sie mwet su fahk kas koluk kacl in pacl meet, ac sie su akkolukye ac kalyei orekma lal. Tusruktu God El pakoten nu sik mweyen nga oru ma inge in ninikin, ac in selulalfongi luk.

Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did [it] ignorantly in unbelief:

14 Ac Leum lasr el akkalemye lungkulang yoklana lal nu sik, ac ase nu sik lulalfongi ac lungse, su ma lasr ke kut kupasryang yurin Christ Jesus.

And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

15 Kas pwaye se pa inge, su fal in porongeyuk ac lulalfongiyuk: tuh Christ Jesus el tuku nu faclu in molela mwet koluk. Ac nga koluk yohk lukelos nukewa,

This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

16 tusruktu pa inge sripa se God El pakoten nu sik, in akkalemye lupan muteng lun Christ Jesus nu sik, su koluk liki mwet koluk nukewa, tuh in mwe srikasrak nu selos su ac mau lulalfongi in el ke pacl tok, ac eis moul ma pahtpat. (aiōnios g166)

However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for a pattern to them who should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. (aiōnios g166)

17 Inge, nu sin Tokosra se su moul ma pahtpat, su ac tia misa ac su koflana in liyeyuk, God sefanna — in kaksakinyuk ac akfulatyeyuk El ma pahtpat ac ma pahtpat! Amen. (aiōn g165)

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, God the only wise, [be] honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

18 Timothy, ma nutik, nga filiya kas in kai inge nu sum, su fal nu ke kas in palu ma fwack keim in pacl meet ah. Orekmakin kas inge in oana kufwen mwe mweun tuh kom fah mweun wo,

This charge I commit to thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mayest war a good warfare;

19 ac sruokya lulalfongi lom oayapa elah wo in kom. Kutu mwet uh tia taran elah wo in elos, pwanang lulalfongi lalos kunausyukla, oana soko oak ma musalla in meoa uh.

Holding faith and a good conscience; which some having put away, concerning faith have made shipwreck:

20 Ac luo selos pa Hymenaeus ac Alexander, su nga kaeltal ke nga eisaltalang nu ke ku lun Satan; ac ma inge ac lotelos in tia sifil kaskas enum lain God.

Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
