1 Timothy 1
1PaulG3972, an apostleG652 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 byG2596 the commandmentG2003 of GodG2316 ourG1473 SaviourG4990, andG2532 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, which is ourG1473 hopeG3588G1680; 2Unto TimothyG5095, my ownG1103 sonG5043 inG1722 the faithG4102: GraceG5485, mercyG1656, and peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG1473 FatherG3962 andG2532 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962.
3AsG2531 I besoughtG3870 theeG4771 to abide stillG4357 atG1722 EphesusG2181, when I wentG4198 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109, thatG2443 thou mightest chargeG3853 someG5100 that they teachG2085 noG3361 other doctrineG2085, 4NeitherG3366 give heed toG4337 fablesG3454 andG2532 endlessG562 genealogiesG1076, whichG3748 ministerG3930 questionsG2214, ratherG3123 thanG2228 godlyG2316 edifyingG3620 which isG3588 inG1722 faithG4102: so do. 5
NowG1161 the endG5056 of the commandmentG3588G3852 isG1510 charityG26 out ofG1537 a pureG2513 heartG2588, andG2532 of a goodG18 conscienceG4893, andG2532 of faithG4102 unfeignedG505: 6From whichG3739 someG5100 having swervedG795 have turned asideG1624 untoG1519 vain babblingG3150; 7DesiringG2309 to beG1510 teachers of the lawG3547; understandingG3539 neitherG3383 whatG3739 they sayG3004, norG3383 whereofG4012 they affirmG1226.
8ButG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 the lawG3588G3551 is goodG2570, ifG1437 a manG5100 useG5530 itG846 lawfullyG3545; 9KnowingG1492 thisG3778, thatG3754 the lawG3551 isG2749 notG3756 made forG2749 a righteous manG1342, butG1161 for the lawlessG459 andG2532 disobedientG506, for the ungodlyG765 andG2532 for sinnersG268, for unholyG462 andG2532 profaneG952, for murderers of fathersG3964 andG2532 murderers of mothersG3389, for manslayersG409, 10For whoremongersG4205, for them that defile themselves with mankindG733, for menstealersG405, for liarsG5583, for perjured personsG1965, andG2532 ifG1487 there beG480 anyG5100 other thingG2087 that is contrary toG480 soundG5198 doctrineG1319; 11According toG2596 the gloriousG3588G1391 gospelG3588G2098 of the blessedG3107 GodG2316, whichG3739 was committed toG4100 myG1473 trustG4100.
12AndG2532 I thankG5485G2192 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962, who hath enabledG3588G1743 meG1473, for thatG3754 he countedG2233 meG1473 faithfulG4103, putting meG5087 intoG1519 the ministryG1248; 13Who wasG1510 beforeG4386 a blasphemerG989, andG2532 a persecutorG1376, andG2532 injuriousG5197: butG235 I obtained mercyG1653, becauseG3754 I didG4160 it ignorantlyG50 inG1722 unbeliefG570. 14AndG1161 the graceG3588G5485 of ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 was exceeding abundantG5250 withG3326 faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26 which isG3588 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15ThisG3588 is a faithfulG4103 sayingG3056, andG2532 worthyG514 of allG3956 acceptationG594, thatG3754 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 cameG2064 intoG1519 the worldG3588G2889 to saveG4982 sinnersG268; of whomG3739 IG1473 amG1510 chiefG4413. 16HowbeitG235 forG1223 this causeG3778 I obtained mercyG1653, thatG2443 inG1722 meG1473 firstG4413 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 might shew forthG1731 allG3956 longsufferingG3115, forG4314 a patternG5296 to them which should hereafterG3195 believeG4100 onG1909 himG846 toG1519 lifeG2222 everlastingG166. 17NowG1161 unto the KingG935 eternalG3588G165, immortalG862, invisibleG517, the onlyG3441 wiseG4680 GodG2316, be honourG5092 andG2532 gloryG1391 forG1519 everG3588G165 and everG3588G165. AmenG281. 18
ThisG3778 chargeG3588G3852 I commitG3908 unto theeG4771, sonG5043 TimothyG5095, according toG2596 the propheciesG4394 which went beforeG4254 onG1909 theeG4771, thatG2443 thouG4754 byG1722 themG846 mightest warG4754 a goodG2570 warfareG4752; 19HoldingG2192 faithG4102, andG2532 a goodG18 conscienceG4893; whichG3739 someG5100 having put awayG683 concerningG4012 faithG3588G4102 have made shipwreckG3489: 20Of whomG3739 isG1510 HymenaeusG5211 andG2532 AlexanderG223; whomG3739 I have deliveredG3860 unto SatanG3588G4567, thatG2443 they may learnG3811 notG3361 to blasphemeG987.
