4 Now de the ho Spirit pneuma clearly rhētōs says legō that hoti in en the last hysteros times kairos some tis of the ho faith pistis will apostatize aphistēmi by being devoted to prosechō deceitful planos spirits pneuma and kai teachings didaskalia of demons daimonion, 2 by en the hypocrisy hypokrisis of liars pseudologos whose own idios consciences syneidēsis have been seared kaustēriazō, · ho 3 forbidding kōlyō to marry gameō, demanding apechō abstinence from foods brōma that hos · ho God theos created ktizō to be eis received metalēmpsis with meta thanksgiving eucharistia by those ho who are faithful pistos and kai know epiginōskō the ho truth alētheia, 4 since hoti all pas of God’ s theos creation ktisma is good kalos, and kai nothing oudeis is unclean apoblētos if it is received lambanō with meta thanksgiving eucharistia; 5 for gar it is sanctified hagiazō through dia the word logos of God theos and kai prayer enteuxis.
6 By placing these things houtos before hypotithēmi the ho brethren adelphos, you will be eimi a good kalos servant diakonos of Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous, being trained entrephō by the ho words logos of the ho faith pistis and kai of the ho good kalos teaching didaskalia that hos you have followed parakoloutheō. 7 But de reject paraiteomai the ho profane bebēlos and kai silly graōdēs myths mythos; rather de train gymnazō yourself seautou for pros godliness eusebeia; 8 · ho for gar bodily sōmatikos exercise gymnasia is eimi of value ōphelimos for pros a little while oligos, · ho but de godliness eusebeia is eimi of value ōphelimos for pros all pas things because it holds echō a promise epangelia for the ho present nyn life zōē and kai for the ho coming mellō life. 9 Trustworthy pistos is the ho saying logos and kai worthy axios of complete pas acceptance apodochē, 10 for gar with respect to eis this houtos reason we are toiling kopiaō and kai struggling agōnizomai, since hoti, “ We have placed our hope elpizō in epi the living zaō God theos, who hos is eimi the Savior sōtēr of all pas people anthrōpos, particularly malista of those who believe pistos.”
11 Command parangellō and kai teach didaskō these things houtos. 12 Let kataphroneō no one mēdeis treat kataphroneō you contemptuously kataphroneō because of your sy · ho youth neotēs, but alla be ginomai an example typos for the ho faithful pistos in en speech logos, in en conduct anastrophē, in en love agapē, in en faith pistis, in en purity hagneia. 13 Until heōs I come erchomai, be devoted prosechō to the ho reading anagnōsis of Scripture, to the ho exhortation paraklēsis, to the ho teaching didaskalia. 14 Do not mē neglect ameleō the ho gift charisma that is in en you sy, which hos was given didōmi to you sy through dia prophecy prophēteia with meta the laying epithesis on of the ho hands cheir of the ho body of elders presbyterion. 15 Continually practice meletaō these things houtos, immerse yourself eimi in en them houtos, so that hina your sy · ho progress prokopē might be eimi visible phaneros to all pas. 16 Watch epechō yourself seautou and kai the ho teaching didaskalia; be persistent epimenō in them autos; for gar by so houtos doing poieō you will save sōzō both kai yourself seautou and kai those ho hearing akouō you sy.
1 Timothy 4
Amplified Bible
Apostasy
4 But the [Holy] Spirit explicitly and unmistakably declares that in later times some will turn away from the faith, paying attention instead to deceitful and seductive spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 [misled] by the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared as with a branding iron [leaving them incapable of ethical functioning], 3 who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from [certain kinds of] foods which God has created to be gratefully shared by those who believe and have [a clear] knowledge of the truth. 4 For everything God has created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude; 5 for it is sanctified [set apart, dedicated to God] by means of the word of God and prayer.
A Good Minister’s Discipline
6 If you point out these instructions to the [a]brothers and sisters, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, constantly nourished [through study] on the words of the faith and of the good [Christian] doctrine which you have closely followed. 7 But have nothing to do with irreverent folklore and silly myths. On the other hand, discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness [keeping yourself spiritually fit]. 8 For physical training is of some value, but godliness (spiritual training) is of value in everything and in every way, since it holds promise for the present life and for the life to come. 9 This is a faithful and trustworthy saying worthy of full acceptance and approval. 10 It is for this that we labor and strive [often called to account], because we have fixed our [confident] hope on the living God, who is the [b]Savior of all people, especially of those who believe [in Him, recognize Him as the Son of God, and accept Him as Savior and Lord].
11 Keep commanding and teaching these things. 12 Let no one look down on [you because of] your youth, but be an example and set a pattern for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, and in [moral] purity. 13 Until I come, devote yourself to public reading [of Scripture], to preaching and to teaching [the sound doctrine of God’s word]. 14 Do not neglect the spiritual gift within you, [that special endowment] which was intentionally bestowed on you [by the Holy Spirit] through prophetic utterance when the [c]elders laid their hands on you [at your ordination]. 15 Practice and work hard on these things; be absorbed in them [completely occupied in your ministry], so that your progress will be evident to all. 16 Pay close attention to yourself [concentrate on your personal development] and to your teaching; persevere in these things [hold to them], for as you do this you will ensure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you.
