1 Timothy 1:3-20

3As I urgedG3870 you 1upon my departureG4198 for 2MacedoniaG3109, 3remainG4357 on at 4EphesusG2181 soG2443 that you may instructG3853 certainG5100 menG5100 not to 5teachG2085 strangeG2085 doctrinesG2085, 4norG3366 to 6payG4337 attentionG4337 to 7mythsG3454 and endlessG562 8genealogiesG1076, whichG3748 giveG3930 riseG3930 to mere 9speculationG1567 ratherG3123 thanG2228 10furthering 11the administrationG3622 of GodG2316 which is by faithG4102. 5But the goalG5056 of our 1213instructionG3852 is loveG26 14from a pureG2513 heartG2588 and a 15goodG18 conscienceG4893 and a sincereG505 16faithG4102. 6For someG5100 menG5100, strayingG795 from theseG3739 thingsG3739, have turnedG1624 asideG1624 to 17fruitlessG3150 discussionG3150, 718wantingG2309 to be 19teachersG3547 of the LawG3547, even though they do not understandG3539 eitherG3383 whatG3739 they are sayingG3004 orG3383 the matters aboutG4012 whichG5101 they makeG1226 confidentG1226 assertionsG1226.

8But we knowG3609 that 20the LawG3551 is goodG2570, ifG1437 oneG5100 usesG5530 it lawfullyG3545, 9realizingG3609 the factG3778 that 21lawG3551 is not madeG2749 for a righteousG1342 personG1342, but for those who are lawlessG459 and 22rebelliousG506, for the 23ungodlyG765 and sinnersG268, for the unholyG462 and 24profaneG952, for those who killG3970G3389 their fathersG3970 orG2532 mothersG3389, for murderersG409 1025and 2627immoralG4205 menG4205 28and 29homosexualsG733 30and 31kidnappersG405 32and 33liarsG5583 34and 35perjurersG1965, and whateverG1487G5100 elseG2087 is contraryG480 to 36soundG5198 teachingG1319, 11accordingG2596 to 37the gloriousG1391 gospelG2098 of 38the blessedG3107 GodG2316, with whichG3739 I have been 39entrustedG4100.

12I thankG5485 40ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962, who has 41strengthenedG1743 me, becauseG3754 He consideredG2233 me faithfulG4103, 42puttingG5087 me into serviceG1248, 13even though I was formerlyG4387 a blasphemerG989 and a 43persecutorG1376 and a violentG5197 aggressorG5197. YetG235 I was 44shownG1653 mercyG1653 becauseG3754 45I actedG4160 ignorantlyG50 in unbeliefG570; 14and the 46graceG5485 of our LordG2962 was moreG5250 thanG5250 abundantG5250, with the 47faithG4102 and loveG26 which are found in ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 1548It is a trustworthyG4103 statementG3056, deservingG514 fullG3956 acceptanceG594, that 49ChristG5547 JesusG2424 cameG2064 into the worldG2889 to 50saveG4982 sinnersG268, among whomG3739 51I amG1510 foremostG4413 of all. 16YetG235 for thisG3778 reasonG1223 I 52foundG1653 mercyG1653, soG2443 that in me as the foremostG4413, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 might 53demonstrateG1731 His perfectG537 patienceG3115 as an exampleG5296 for thoseG3588 54who wouldG3195 believeG4100 in Him for eternalG166 lifeG2222. 17NowG1161 to the 55KingG935 56eternalG165, 57immortalG862, 58invisibleG517, the 59onlyG3441 GodG2316, 60be honorG5092 and gloryG1391 61foreverG165 and everG165. AmenG281.

18ThisG3778 62commandG3852 I entrustG3908 to you, TimothyG5095, 63my 64sonG5043, in accordanceG2596 with the 65propheciesG4394 previouslyG4254 madeG4254 concerningG1909 you, that by them you 66fightG4754 the goodG2570 fightG4752, 19keepingG2192 67faithG4102 and a goodG18 conscienceG4893, whichG3739 someG5100 have rejectedG683 and sufferedG3489 shipwreckG3489 in regardG4012 to 6869their faithG4102. 2070Among theseG3739 are 71HymenaeusG5211 and 72AlexanderG223, whomG3739 I have 73handedG3860 overG3860 to SatanG4567, soG2443 that they will be 74taughtG3811 not to blasphemeG987.
