1 Timothy1
1Sha’ul [desired], an apostle of Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] by the commandment of God-The Father our Saviour, and Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], [which is] our hope;2Unto Timothy [honoring God], [my] own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from God-The Father our Father and Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] our Lord - Kurios.3As I besought youi to abide still at Ephesus [permitted], when I went into Macedonia [extended land], that youi might charge some that they teach no other doctrine,4Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: [so do].5Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned:6From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain quarreling (noisy arguement);7Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.8But we know that the law [is] good, if a man use it lawfully;9Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and Profane (treat as common; defile), for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,10For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;11According to the glorious Gospel (joyful message) of the Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) God-The Father, which was committed to my trust.12And I thank Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation] our Lord - Kurios, who has enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;13Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did [it] ignorantly in unbelief.14And the grace of our Lord - Kurios was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation].15This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation] came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.16However for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] might show forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.17Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God-The Father, [be] honour and glory forever and ever. Amen.18This charge I commit unto youi, son Timothy [honoring God], according to the prophecies which went before on youi, that youi by them might war a good warfare;19Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:20Of whom is Hymenaeus [belonging to marriage] and Alexander [one who assists men]; whom I have delivered unto Satan [the adversary], that they may learn not to blaspheme.1I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;2For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.3For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God-The Father our Saviour;4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.5For [there is] one God-The Father, and one mediator between God-The Father and men, the man Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation];6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.7Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the tin Moshiach [Messiah], [and] lie not;) a teacher of the Goyim [Gentiles] in faith and truth.8I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.9In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array (to put on; to clothe);10But (which becomes women professing godliness) with good works.11Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.12But I suffer (allow, to let, permit) not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.13For Adam (Man, ground; red; earthling) was first formed, then Khav’vah [Eve] (to breath, to live).14And Adam (Man, ground; red; earthling) was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.15Yet she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.1This [is] a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desires a good work.2A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;3Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy profit; but patient, not a brawler (one who gets into fights), not covetous;4One that rules well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;5(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God-The Father?)6Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.7Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach (disgrace; shame) and the snare of the devil.8Likewise [must] the deacons [be] grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy profit;9Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.10And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being [found] blameless.11Even so [must] wives [be] grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.12Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.13For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation].14These things write I unto youi, hoping to come unto youi shortly:15But if I wait long, that youi may know how youi ought to behave yourself in the house of God-The Father, which is the church of the living God-The Father, the pillar and ground of the truth.16And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God-The Father was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit [Ruach], seen of angels, preached unto the Goyim [Gentiles], believed on in the world, received up into glory.1Now the Spirit [Ruach] speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of demons;2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;3Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats, which God-The Father has created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.4For every creature of God-The Father [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:5For it is sanctified by the word of God-The Father and prayer.6If youi put the brethren in remembrance of these things, youi shall be a good minister of Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto youi have attained.7But refuse Profane (treat as common; defile) and old wives’ fables, and exercise yourself [rather] unto godliness.8For bodily exercise profits for a little time: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.9This [is] a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.10For therefore we both labour and suffer (allow, to let, permit) reproach (disgrace; shame), because we trust in the living God-The Father, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.11These things command and teach.12Let no man despise youri youth; but be youi an example of the believers, in word, in Conversation (behavior; way of life; community), in charity, in Spirit [Ruach], in faith, in purity.13Till I come, give attendance to reading, to Exhortation (encouragement; counsel), to doctrine.14Neglect not the gift that is in youi, which was given youi by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the Presbytery (assembly of elders).15Meditate upon these things; give yourself wholly to them; that youri profiting may appear to all.16Take heed unto yourself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this youi shall both save yourself, and them that hear youi.1Rebuke (reprimand; strongly warn; restrain) not an elder, but intreat [him] as a father; [and] the younger men as brethren;2The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.3Honour widows that are widows indeed.4But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to show piety at home, and to offer support for their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God-The Father.5Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusts in God-The Father, and continues in supplications and prayers night and day.6But she that lives in pleasure is dead while she lives.7And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.8But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.9Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man,10Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints’ feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.11But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to grow (become; advance) reckless against Moshiach [Messiah], they will marry;12Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.13And withal they learn [to be] idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.14I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.15For some are already turned aside after Satan [the adversary].16If any man or woman that believes have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.17Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.18For the scripture says, youi shall not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn. And, The labourer [is] worthy of his reward.19Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.20Them that sin rebuke (reprimand; strongly warn; restrain) before all, that others also may fear.21I charge [youi] before God-The Father, and the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], and the elect angels, that youi observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.22Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep yourself pure.23Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for youri stomach’s sake and youri often infirmities.24Some men’s sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some [men] they follow after.25Likewise also the good works [of some] are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.1Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God-The Father and [his] doctrine be not blasphemed.2And they that have believing masters, let them not despise [them], because they are brethren; but rather do [them] service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.3If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, [even] the words of our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;4He is proud, knowing nothing, but sick about questions and strifes of words, whereof comes envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,5Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw yourself.6But godliness with contentment is great gain.7For we brought nothing into [this] world, [and it is] certain we can carry nothing out.8And having food and clothing let us be with that content.9But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.10For the love of money is a root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.11But youi, O man of God-The Father, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.12Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto youi are also called, and have professed a good profession before many witnesses.13I give youi charge in the sight of God-The Father, who quickens all things, and [before] Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation], who before Pontius Pilate [armed with a spear] witnessed a good confession;14That youi keep [this] commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah]:15Which in his times he shall show, [who is] the Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord - Kurios of lords;16Who only has immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honour and power everlasting. Amen.17Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God-The Father, who gives us richly all things to enjoy;18That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;19Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.20O Timothy [honoring God], keep that which is committed to youi trust, avoiding Profane (treat as common; defile) [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:21Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace [be] with youi. Amen. <The first to Timothy [honoring God] was written from Laodicea [justice of the people], which is the most important city of Phrygia [dry, barren] Pacatiana [dry; barren].>
