| 1 | Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ, our hope, |
|
ΠαῦλοςαπόστολοςΧριστοῦΙησοῦκατ᾿επιταγὴνθεοῦσωτῆροςημῶνκαὶΧριστοῦΙησοῦτῆςελπίδοςημῶν
|
|
| 2 | To Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord. |
|
Τιμοθέωγνησίωτέκνωενπίστει·χάρις,έλεος,ειρήνηαπὸθεοῦπατρὸςκαὶΧριστοῦΙησοῦτοῦκυρίουημῶν.
|
|
| 3 | As I urged you when I went into Macedonia—remain in Ephesus that you may charge some that they teach no other doctrine, |
|
ΚαθὼςπαρεκάλεσάσεπροσμεῖναιενΕφέσωπορευόμενοςειςΜακεδονίαν,ίναπαραγγείληςτισὶνμὴετεροδιδασκαλεῖν
|
|
| 4 | nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith. |
|
μηδὲπροσέχεινμύθοιςκαὶγενεαλογίαιςαπεράντοις,αίτινεςεκζητήσειςπαρέχουσινμᾶλλονὴοικονομίανθεοῦτὴνενπίστει·
|
|
| 5 | Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith, |
|
τὸδὲτέλοςτῆςπαραγγελίαςεστὶναγάπηεκκαθαρᾶςκαρδίαςκαὶσυνειδήσεωςαγαθῆςκαὶπίστεωςανυποκρίτου,
|
|
| 6 | from which some, having strayed, have turned aside to idle talk, |
|
ῶντινεςαστοχήσαντεςεξετράπησανειςματαιολογίαν,
|
|
| 7 | desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm. |
|
θέλοντεςεῖναινομοδιδάσκαλοι,μὴνοοῦντεςμήτεὰλέγουσινμήτεπερὶτίνωνδιαβεβαιοῦνται.
|
|
| 8 | But we know that the law is good if one uses it lawfully, |
|
Οίδαμενδὲότικαλὸςονόμοςεάντιςαυτῶνομίμωςχρῆται,
|
|
| 9 | knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, |
|
ειδὼςτοῦτο,ότιδικαίωνόμοςουκεῖται,ανόμοιςδὲκαὶανυποτάκτοις,ασεβέσικαὶαμαρτωλοῖς,ανοσίοιςκαὶβεβήλοις,πατρολώαιςκαὶμητρολώαις,ανδροφόνοις,
|
|
| 10 | for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine, |
|
πόρνοις,αρσενοκοίταις,ανδραποδισταῖς,ψεύσταις,επιόρκοις,καὶείτιέτεροντῆυγιαινούσηδιδασκαλίααντίκειται,
|
|
| 11 | according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust. |
|
κατὰτὸευαγγέλιοντῆςδόξηςτοῦμακαρίουθεοῦ,ὸεπιστεύθηνεγώ.
|
|
| 12 | And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, |
|
ΧάρινέχωτῶενδυναμώσαντίμεΧριστῶΙησοῦτῶκυρίωημῶν,ότιπιστόνμεηγήσατοθέμενοςειςδιακονίαν,
|
|
| 13 | although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. |
|
τὸπρότερονόνταβλάσφημονκαὶδιώκτηνκαὶυβριστήν·αλλὰηλεήθην,ότιαγνοῶνεποίησαεναπιστία,
|
|
| 14 | And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. |
|
υπερεπλεόνασενδὲηχάριςτοῦκυρίουημῶνμετὰπίστεωςκαὶαγάπηςτῆςενΧριστῶΙησοῦ.
|
|
| 15 | This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. |
|
πιστὸςολόγοςκαὶπάσηςαποδοχῆςάξιος,ότιΧριστὸςΙησοῦςῆλθενειςτὸνκόσμοναμαρτωλοὺςσῶσαι·ῶνπρῶτόςειμιεγώ,
|
|
| 16 | However, for this reason I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show all longsuffering, as a pattern to those who are going to believe on Him for everlasting life. |
|
αλλὰδιὰτοῦτοηλεήθην,ίναενεμοὶπρώτωενδείξηταιΧριστὸςΙησοῦςτὴνάπασανμακροθυμίαν,πρὸςυποτύπωσιντῶνμελλόντωνπιστεύεινεπ᾿αυτῶειςζωὴναιώνιον.
|
|
| 17 | Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. |
|
τῶδὲβασιλεῖτῶναιώνων,αφθάρτω,αοράτω,μόνωθεῶ,τιμὴκαὶδόξαειςτοὺςαιῶναςτῶναιώνων·αμήν.
|
|
| 18 | This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you may wage the good warfare, |
|
Ταύτηντὴνπαραγγελίανπαρατίθεμαίσοι,τέκνονΤιμόθεε,κατὰτὰςπροαγούσαςεπὶσὲπροφητείας,ίναστρατεύηεναυταῖςτὴνκαλὴνστρατείαν,
|
|
| 19 | having faith and a good conscience, which some having rejected, concerning the faith have suffered shipwreck, |
|
έχωνπίστινκαὶαγαθὴνσυνείδησιν,ήντινεςαπωσάμενοιπερὶτὴνπίστινεναυάγησαν·
|
|
| 20 | of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme. |
|
ῶνεστινΥμέναιοςκαὶΑλέξανδρος,οὺςπαρέδωκατῶΣατανᾶίναπαιδευθῶσινμὴβλασφημεῖν.
