Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 1:1 | Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ according to a command of God our Savior, even the Lord Jesus Christ, our Hope, |
| 1:2 | to Timothy, a true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| 1:3 | Even as I called on you to remain in Ephesus, (I going to Macedonia), that you might charge some not to teach other doctrines, |
| 1:4 | nor to give heed to fables and to endless genealogies, which occasion doubts, rather than a stewardship of God in faith, |
| 1:5 | but the end of the commandment is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience, and faith not pretended, |
| 1:6 | from which having missed the mark, some turned aside to empty talking, |
| 1:7 | wishing to be teachers of law, neither understanding what they say, nor about that which they confidently affirm. |
| 1:8 | And we know that the Law is good, if anyone uses it lawfully, |
| 1:9 | knowing this, that law is not laid down for a righteous one, but for lawless and undisciplined ones, for ungodly and sinful ones, for unholy and profane ones, for slayers of fathers and slayers of mothers, for murderers, |
| 1:10 | for fornicators, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and if any other thing opposes sound doctrine, |
| 1:11 | according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God with which I was entrusted. |
| 1:12 | And I have thanks to Him empowering me, our Lord Jesus Christ, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, |
| 1:13 | the one who before was a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and insolent; but I received mercy, because being ignorant I did it in unbelief. |
| 1:14 | But the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love in Christ Jesus. |
| 1:15 | Faithful is the Word and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief. |
| 1:16 | But for this reason I received mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for an example to those being about to believe on Him to everlasting life. |
| 1:17 | Now to the King eternal, incorruptible, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. |
| 1:18 | This charge I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies going before as to you, that you might war the good warfare by them, |
| 1:19 | having faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away, made shipwreck concerning the faith, |
| 1:20 | of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan, that they may be taught not to blaspheme. |
