1 Timotius 1
1 Timotius rala maloleꞌ! Sodꞌa-moleꞌ mia au, Paulus. Lamatualain soꞌu au dadꞌi Yesus Kristus dedꞌenun. Hita tamahena neu Lamatuaꞌ Yesus, mana fee nggita tasodꞌa takandoo to E, huu Lamatualain fee hita tasodꞌa mia basa sala tara. Tius! Ho onaꞌ au ana ngga ena, huu au mana utudꞌu dalaꞌ de mumuhere neu Kristus. Au hule-oꞌe fo Lamatualain, hita Aman, no Yesus Kristus, hita malanggan, ratudꞌu rala malole nara no susue-lalai nara, ma fee nggo musodꞌa no mole-dꞌame.
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Feꞌesaꞌan, ruꞌa nggita taꞌabꞌue mia kota Efesus. Leleꞌ au ae uu sia propinsi Makedonia, au huhuar nggo fo muhani sia Efesus. Te leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori ra tao atahori saraniꞌ ra bingun no nenoriꞌ nda matetuꞌ sa. Dadꞌi au oꞌe muu ai se, fo ara afiꞌ ranori rakandoo taꞌo naa.
As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
4 Atahori ra o ngganggari fai parsumaꞌ a reu dui-bꞌengga dudꞌui pepeko-lelekoꞌ fai maꞌahulun, boe ma rareresi soꞌal dꞌui-baes rakandooꞌ a. Dedꞌeꞌat naa ra taoꞌ a atahori ra ratofa ma rasodꞌa nda ramahere Lamatualain sa.
and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.
5 Au unori nggo ia, naa fo munori atahori mamahereꞌ ra fo rasodꞌa no susueꞌ mia rala meumareꞌ, dudꞌuꞌa ndo-tetuꞌ, ma nemehereꞌ tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ.
But the goal of this command is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith,
6 Te meser ruma raꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ ma nggari hendi nenoriꞌ naa. Boe ma ara reu ngganggari fai a noꞌ a nereresit ma olaꞌ baro-leli.
from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned away to vain talking,
7 Ara ratudꞌu ao nara rae, sira, meser mana ranori baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalane nara. Ara koa ao nara rae sira meser monaeꞌ ra, te nda rahine saa fo ranoriꞌ naa ra sa boe.
desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say nor about what they strongly affirm.
8 Basa hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, basa baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalane nara, maloleꞌ! Sadꞌi hita pake se tungga Lamatualain masud na no matetuꞌ.
But we know that the law is good if a person uses it lawfully,
9 Hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra, nda nenesuraꞌ fee atahori mana rasodꞌa no ndoo-tetuꞌ sa. Te nenesuraꞌ fee neu atahori mana mamue, nda mana rena parendaꞌ sa, rasodꞌa raꞌadꞌodꞌoꞌ ro Lamatualain, hiiꞌ a tao deꞌulakaꞌ, nda taoafiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa, mana raloe-radꞌae dala meumareꞌ a, mana risa atahori, ma mana risa ama-ina nara boe.
as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10 Hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra o nenesuraꞌ fee neu atahori mana hohonggeꞌ, touꞌ sao touꞌ, mana lea rendi atahori fo roꞌe doi sosoiꞌ, mana pepeko-lelekoꞌ, sakasii ombo-koson, ma fee basa atahori ralena langga neu nenori ndoo-tetuꞌ a.
for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,
11 Nenori ndoo-tetuꞌ naa ra, laoꞌ mia Lamatualain Dudꞌui Malolen, fo Ana fee neu au ꞌa. Lamatualain naa, manaseliꞌ. Atahori soꞌu rananaru E o, nandaa.
according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
12 Au oꞌe makasi nae-nae neu hita Malanggan Yesus Kristus huu Ana namahere au, ma tao au bisa ulalao ue-tataon.
I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service,
13 Feꞌesaꞌan, au hiiꞌ a olaꞌ uꞌumuti fo uꞌututudꞌaꞌ Yesus Naran, ma tao doidꞌoso atahori mana tungga dꞌala masodꞌan. Au hiiꞌ a tuni-ndeni ulutu se. Au deꞌulaka ngga taꞌo naa, huu leleꞌ naa, au nda uhine saa fo au taoꞌ naa, ma nda feꞌe umuhere hita Malanggan Yesus Kristus sa. Huu au nda uhine saa fo au taoꞌ naa sa, dadꞌi Ana nda liliiꞌ au sa. Ma Ana o natudꞌu susuen neu au. Lenaꞌ fai, natudꞌu rala malolen neu au nakandooꞌ a! Ana mbori-mboꞌa papala-babꞌanggiꞌ fee au, fo umuhere uhereꞌ neu E, ma sue atahori ra onaꞌ Ana sue au boe.
although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 Hita o rena-renaꞌ tae, “Yesus Kristus nema sia raefafoꞌ ia, fo fee masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori mana tao salaꞌ ra.” Memaꞌ tebꞌe taꞌo naa! Mia basa atahori mana tao salaꞌ ra, au ia deꞌulaka ngga naseliꞌ.
The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
16 Mae deꞌulaka ngga onaꞌ naa o, Lamatualain naꞌetuꞌ nala nae nda huku-doki au sa. Ana nau pake au dadꞌi conto fo utudꞌu Yesus Kristus rala loan neu atahori deꞌulaka manaseliꞌ onaꞌ au ia. No taꞌo naa, atahori feaꞌ mana tao salaꞌ ra ramahere neu E, fo ara o rasodꞌa rakando ro E. (aiōnios g166)
However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Koa-kio Lamatualain! Akaꞌ a mesaꞌ ne, Lamatualain; nda hambu laen sa! Mane mana toꞌu parendaꞌ nda manabasaꞌ sa. Eni nasodꞌa nakandooꞌ a. Eni nda mate sa. Atahori nda rita E no mata ao sisi nara sa. Basa hadꞌa-hormat ma kokoa-kikioꞌ fee neu E. losa doo nduꞌu-dꞌoon neu! Amin. (aiōn g165)
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 Ana ngga Timotius, rala malole! Au ae ufadꞌe nggo, saa fo ho musi tao sia ue-tatao mara. Basa ia ra, tungga saa fo Lamatualain mana ola-ola nara olaꞌ memaꞌ soꞌal ue-tataom. Mete ma ho tungga dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa ra no matetuꞌ, na, ho onaꞌ soldꞌadꞌu esa, natati nahine, labꞌan deꞌulakaꞌ ra.
I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
19 Toꞌu muhereꞌ nemeherem neu Kristus. Ma munea fo ralam meuꞌ nakandooꞌ a. Huu hambu atahori nda nau rena sira rala dudꞌuꞌa nara sa. Naa tao sira nemehere nara rambalutu, onaꞌ ofai sae nala fatu mbiaꞌ.
holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,
20 Himenius no Alexander, onaꞌ naa boe! Naa de, au hela fee se reu nitur malangga monaen nauli se. Au tao taꞌo naa, fo dadꞌi nenoriꞌ sa, fo ara afiꞌ tao ralutu Lamatuaꞌ naran fai.
of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
