1 Timothy 1:1-11 (Young's Literal Translation)
View In My Bible
1
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
2
to Timotheus -- genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord,
3
according as I did exhort thee to remain in Ephesus -- I going on to Macedonia -- that thou mightest charge certain not to teach any other thing,
4
nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than the building up of God that is in faith: --
5
And the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned,
6
from which certain, having swerved, did turn aside to vain discourse,
7
willing to be teachers of law, not understanding either the things they say, nor concerning what they asseverate,
8
and we have known that the law [is] good, if any one may use it lawfully;
9
having known this, that for a righteous man law is not set, but for lawless and insubordinate persons, ungodly and sinners, impious and profane, parricides and matricides, men-slayers,
10
whoremongers, sodomites, men-stealers, liars, perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that to sound doctrine is adverse,
11
according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.
