1 Timothy 1

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 Sha'ul, an apostle of Messiah Yeshua according to the mitzvah of God, our Savior, and Messiah Yeshua, our hope;

2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and shalom, from God our Father, and Messiah Yeshua, our Lord.

3 As I exhorted you to stay at Ephesus, when I was going into Macedonia, that you might charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine,

4 neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith --

5 But the end of the charge is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and unfeigned faith;

6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;

7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.

8 But we know that the law is good, if a man uses it lawfully,

9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

10 for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;

11 according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

12 And I thank him who enabled me, Messiah Yeshua, our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

13 although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Messiah Yeshua.

15 The saying is faithful, and worthy of all acceptance, that Messiah Yeshua came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief, Yeshua the Messiah might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him to eternal life.

17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amein.

18 This charge I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to you, that by them you may wage the good warfare;

19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;

20 of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Hasatan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.

The Message Bible MSG

1 I, Paul, am an apostle on special assignment for Christ, our living hope. Under God our Savior's command,

2 I'm writing this to you, Timothy, my son in the faith. All the best from our God and Christ be yours!

3 On my way to the province of Macedonia, I advised you to stay in Ephesus. Well, I haven't changed my mind. Stay right there on top of things so that the teaching stays on track.

4 Apparently some people have been introducing fantasy stories and fanciful family trees that digress into silliness instead of pulling the people back into the center, deepening faith and obedience.

5 The whole point of what we're urging is simply love - love uncontaminated by self-interest and counterfeit faith, a life open to God.

6 Those who fail to keep to this point soon wander off into cul-de-sacs of gossip.

7 They set themselves up as experts on religious issues, but haven't the remotest idea of what they're holding forth with such imposing eloquence.

8 It's true that moral guidance and counsel need to be given, but the way you say it and to whom you say it are as important as what you say.

9 It's obvious, isn't it, that the law code isn't primarily for people who live responsibly, but for the irresponsible, who defy all authority, riding roughshod over God, life,

10 sex, truth, whatever!

11 They are contemptuous of this great Message I've been put in charge of by this great God.

12 I'm so grateful to Christ Jesus for making me adequate to do this work. He went out on a limb, you know, in trusting me with this ministry.

13 The only credentials I brought to it were invective and witch hunts and arrogance. But I was treated mercifully because I didn't know what I was doing - didn't know Who I was doing it against!

14 Grace mixed with faith and love poured over me and into me. And all because of Jesus.

15 Here's a word you can take to heart and depend on: Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners. I'm proof - Public Sinner Number One -

16 of someone who could never have made it apart from sheer mercy. And now he shows me off - evidence of his endless patience - to those who are right on the edge of trusting him forever.

17 Deep honor and bright glory to the King of All Time - One God, Immortal, Invisible, ever and always. Oh, yes!

18 I'm passing this work on to you, my son Timothy. The prophetic word that was directed to you prepared us for this. All those prayers are coming together now so you will do this well, fearless in your struggle,

19 keeping a firm grip on your faith and on yourself. After all, this is a fight we're in.

20 Hymenaeus and Alexander are two of them. I let them wander off to Satan to be taught a lesson or two about not blaspheming.
