1 Timothy Chapter 1

1PaulG3972, apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, accordingG2596 to [the] commandG2003 of 1GodG2316 our Saviour, and of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our hopeG1680, 2to Timotheus, [my] trueG1103 childG5043 in faithG4102: graceG5485, mercyG1656, peaceG1515, from 2GodG2316 our FatherG3962 and ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962. 3Even as I begged thee to remain in EphesusG2181, [when I was] goingG4198 to MacedoniaG3109, that thou mightest enjoin some not to teach other doctrines, 4nor to turn their minds to fables and interminable genealogiesG1076, which bring questionings ratherG3123 than [further] 3God's dispensation, which [is] in faithG4102. 5But the endG5056 of what isG1510 enjoined isG1510 loveG26 out of a pureG2513 heartG2588 and a goodG18 conscienceG4893 and unfeigned faithG4102; 6which [thingsG3739] some having missed, have turnedG1624 asideG1624 to vain discourse, 7desiringG2309 to beG1510 law-teachers, not understanding either what they sayG3004 or concerningG4012 what they [so] strenuously affirm. 8NowG1161 we know that the lawG3551 [is] goodG2570 if any oneG5100 usesG5530 it lawfullyG3545, 9knowing this, that lawG3551 has not its application to a righteousG1342 person, but to [the] lawlessG459 and insubordinate, to [the] impious and sinfulG268, to [the] unholyG462 and profaneG952, to smiters of fathers and smiters of mothers; to murderers, 10fornicatorsG4205, sodomites, kidnappers, liarsG5583, perjurers; and if any otherG2087 thing is opposed to soundG5198 teachingG1319, 11accordingG2596 to the glad tidings of the gloryG1391 of the blessed 4GodG2316, with which I have been entrustedG4100. 12[And] I thankG5485 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962, who has given me power, that he has counted me faithfulG4103, appointing to ministryG1248 him 13who before wasG1510 a blasphemer and persecutor, and an insolentG5197 overbearing [man]: but mercyG1653 wasG1510 shewn me because I did it ignorantly, in unbeliefG570. 14But the graceG5485 of our LordG2962 surpassingly over-abounded with faithG4102 and loveG26, which [is] in ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15FaithfulG4103 [isG1510] the wordG3056, and worthyG514 of all acceptation, that ChristG5547 JesusG2424 cameG2064 into the worldG2889 to saveG4982 sinnersG268, of whom I amG1510 [the] firstG4413. 16But for this reason mercyG1653 was shewn me, that in me, [the] firstG4413, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 might display the whole long-suffering, for a delineation of those about to believeG4100 on him to lifeG2222 eternalG166. 17NowG1161 to the KingG935 of the agesG165, [the] incorruptible, invisibleG517, onlyG3441 5GodG2316, honour and gloryG1391 to the agesG165 of agesG165. AmenG281. 18This chargeG3852, [my] childG5043 Timotheus, I commitG3908 to thee, accordingG2596 to the propheciesG4394 as to thee preceding, in orderG2443 that thou mightest warG4754 by them the goodG2570 warfareG4752, 19maintaining faithG4102 and a goodG18 conscienceG4893; which [last] some, having put awayG683, have made shipwreck as to faithG4102; 20of whom isG1510 HymenaeusG5211 and AlexanderG223, whom I have deliveredG3860 to SatanG4567, that they may beG1510 taught by discipline not to blasphemeG987.
