Warning Against False Teachers
As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine,
As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus so that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine,
As I urged you upon my departure for Macedonia, remain on at Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to teach strange doctrines,
nor to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which give rise to mere speculation rather than furthering the administration of God which is by faith.
The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
Certain persons, by swerving from these, have wandered away into vain discussion,
For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to fruitless discussion,
desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.
wanting to be teachers of the Law, even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions.
Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers,
realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers
and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,
in accordance with the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.
according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted.
Christ Jesus Came to Save Sinners
I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful, appointing me to his service,
I thank him who has given me strength, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful, appointing me to his service,
I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service,
though formerly I was a blasphemer, persecutor, and insolent opponent. But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief,
even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief;
and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
and the grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus.
The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost.
It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all.
But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.
Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in Him for eternal life.
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
This command I entrust to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you fight the good fight,
holding faith and a good conscience. By rejecting this, some have made shipwreck of their faith,
keeping faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to their faith.
