1 Timothy 1
American Standard Version
1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and Christ Jesus our hope; 2 unto Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 As I exhorted thee to tarry at Ephesus, when I was going into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine, 4 neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a [a]dispensation of God which is in faith; so do I now. 5 But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned: 6 from which things some having [b]swerved have turned aside unto vain talking; 7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm. 8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully, 9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for [c]murderers of fathers and [d]murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10 for fornicators, for abusers of themselves with men, for menstealers, for liars, for false swearers, and if there be any other thing contrary to the [e]sound [f]doctrine; 11 according to the [g]gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
12 I thank him that [h]enabled me, even Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing me to his service; 13 though I was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: howbeit I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief; 14 and the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. 15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief: 16 howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life. 17 Now unto the King [i]eternal, [j]immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory [k]for ever and ever. Amen.
18 This charge I commit unto thee, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to thee, that by them thou mayest war the good warfare; 19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust from them made shipwreck concerning the faith: 20 of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered unto Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.

1 Paul Paulos, an apostle apostolos of Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous because kata of the command epitagē from God theos our hēmeis Savior sōtēr and kai Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous our hēmeis · ho hope elpis, 2 to Timothy Timotheos, my true gnēsios spiritual en son teknon: Grace charis, mercy eleos, peace eirēnē from apo God theos the Father patēr and kai Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous our hēmeis · ho Lord kyrios.
3 Just kathōs as I urged parakaleō you sy to stay prosmenō on in en Ephesus Ephesos while I was traveling poreuō to eis Macedonia Makedonia, so hina that you might command parangellō certain tis people not mē to continue teaching heterodidaskaleō any different doctrine 4 or mēde to devote prosechō themselves to endless aperantos myths mythos and kai genealogies genealogia, which hostis produce parechō speculations ekzētēsis rather mallon than ē the stewardship oikonomia from God theos which ho is by en faith pistis. 5 But de the ho goal telos of this ho command parangelia is eimi love agapē from ek a clean katharos heart kardia and kai a clear agathos conscience syneidēsis and kai a sincere anypokritos faith pistis. 6 Some tis, having fallen astocheō short of these things hos, have wandered ektrepō away into eis senseless babble mataiologia, 7 wishing thelō to eimi be teachers nomodidaskalos of the law even though they do not mē understand noeō either mēte what hos they are saying legō or mēte concerning peri what tis things they are so dogmatically asserting diabebaioomai.
8 Now de we know oida that hoti the ho law nomos is good kalos if ean someone tis uses chraomai it autos lawfully nomimōs, 9 knowing oida this houtos, that hoti law nomos is not ou valid keimai for dikaios a righteous person dikaios but de for the lawless anomos and kai rebellious anypotaktos, irreligious asebēs and kai sinners hamartōlos, unholy anosios and kai profane bebēlos, those who beat their fathers patrolōas and kai mothers mētrolōas, murderers androphonos, 10 fornicators pornos, men who practice homosexuality arsenokoitēs, kidnappers andrapodistēs, liars pseustēs, perjurers epiorkos, and kai everything ei tis else heteros that ho is contrary to antikeimai healthy hygiainō teaching didaskalia, 11 in conformity to kata the ho gospel euangelion of ho the glory doxa of the ho blessed makarios God theos with which hos I egō was entrusted pisteuō.
12 I continually echō thank charis him who ho strengthened endynamoō me egō, Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios, since hoti he considered hēgeomai that even I egō would be faithful pistos, as evidenced by his appointing tithēmi me to eis service diakonia, 13 even though · ho formerly proteros I was eimi a blasphemer blasphēmos, · kai persecutor diōktēs, and kai an insolent person hybristēs. But alla I was shown mercy eleeō since hoti, being ignorant agnoeō, I had acted poieō in en unbelief apistia; 14 and de the ho grace charis of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios completely overflowed hyperpleonazō for me with meta faith pistis and kai love agapē that ho are in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. 15 Trustworthy pistos is the ho saying logos and kai worthy axios of complete pas acceptance apodochē: “ Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous came erchomai into eis the ho world kosmos in order to save sōzō sinners hamartōlos,” of whom hos I egō am eimi the foremost prōtos. 16 But alla for dia this houtos reason I was shown mercy eleeō: so that hina in en me egō as foremost prōtos Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous might display endeiknymi his ho complete hapas patience makrothumia as pros an illustration hypotypōsis for those ho who were mellō to believe pisteuō in epi him autos for eis eternal aiōnios life zōē. 17 Now de to the ho king basileus of ho ages aiōn, incorruptible aphthartos, invisible aoratos, the only monos God theos, be honor timē and kai glory doxa for eis all ho time aiōn ho. · ho Amen amēn.
18 This houtos · ho command parangelia I am entrusting paratithēmi to you sy, child teknon Timothy Timotheos, in accordance with kata the ho prophecies prophēteia previously proagō made about epi you sy, so that hina by en them autos you might fight the ho good kalos fight strateia, 19 holding echō on to faith pistis and kai a good agathos conscience syneidēsis. By rejecting apōtheō their faith and good conscience, some tis have shipwrecked nauageō the ho faith pistis, 20 among whom hos are eimi Hymenaeus Hymenaios and kai Alexander Alexandros, whom hos I have delivered over paradidōmi to ho Satan Satanas so that hina they might be taught paideuō through punishment not mē to blaspheme blasphēmeō.
