1 Timothy 1

New Century Version NCV

1 From Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, by the command of God our Savior and Christ Jesus our hope.

2 To Timothy, a true child to me because you believe: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

3 I asked you to stay longer in Ephesus when I went into Macedonia so you could command some people there to stop teaching false things.

4 Tell them not to spend their time on stories that are not true and on long lists of names in family histories. These things only bring arguments; they do not help God's work, which is done in faith.

5 The purpose of this command is for people to have love, a love that comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a true faith.

6 Some people have missed these things and turned to useless talk.

7 They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not understand either what they are talking about or what they are sure about.

8 But we know that the law is good if someone uses it lawfully.

9 We also know that the law is not made for good people but for those who are against the law and for those who refuse to follow it. It is for people who are against God and are sinful, who are not holy and have no religion, who kill their fathers and mothers, who murder,

10 who take part in sexual sins, who have sexual relations with people of the same sex, who sell slaves, who tell lies, who speak falsely, and who do anything against the true teaching of God.

11 That teaching is part of the Good News of the blessed God that he gave me to tell.

12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who gave me strength, because he trusted me and gave me this work of serving him.

13 In the past I spoke against Christ and persecuted him and did all kinds of things to hurt him. But God showed me mercy, because I did not know what I was doing. I did not believe.

14 But the grace of our Lord was fully given to me, and with that grace came the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

15 What I say is true, and you should fully accept it: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the worst.

16 But I was given mercy so that in me, the worst of all sinners, Christ Jesus could show that he has patience without limit. His patience with me made me an example for those who would believe in him and have life forever.

17 To the King that rules forever, who will never die, who cannot be seen, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

18 Timothy, my child, I am giving you a command that agrees with the prophecies that were given about you in the past. I tell you this so you can follow them and fight the good fight.

19 Continue to have faith and do what you know is right. Some people have rejected this, and their faith has been shipwrecked.

20 Hymenaeus and Alexander have done that, and I have given them to Satan so they will learn not to speak against God.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 Paulus apostolus Christi Iesu secundum imperium Dei salvatoris nostri et Christi Iesu spei nostrae

2 Timotheo dilecto filio in fide gratia misericordia pax a Deo Patre et Christo Iesu Domino nostro

3 sicut rogavi te ut remaneres Ephesi cum irem in Macedoniam ut denuntiares quibusdam ne aliter docerent

4 neque intenderent fabulis et genealogiis interminatis quae quaestiones praestant magis quam aedificationem Dei quae est in fide

5 finis autem praecepti est caritas de corde puro et conscientia bona et fide non ficta

6 a quibus quidam aberrantes conversi sunt in vaniloquium

7 volentes esse legis doctores non intellegentes neque quae loquuntur neque de quibus adfirmant

8 scimus autem quia bona est lex si quis ea legitime utatur

9 sciens hoc quia iusto lex non est posita sed iniustis et non subditis impiis et peccatoribus sceleratis et contaminatis patricidis et matricidis homicidis

10 fornicariis masculorum concubitoribus plagiariis mendacibus periuris et si quid aliud sanae doctrinae adversatur

11 quae est secundum evangelium gloriae beati Dei quod creditum est mihi

12 gratias ago ei qui me confortavit Christo Iesu Domino nostro quia fidelem me existimavit ponens in ministerio

13 qui prius fui blasphemus et persecutor et contumeliosus sed misericordiam consecutus sum quia ignorans feci in incredulitate

14 superabundavit autem gratia Domini nostri cum fide et dilectione quae est in Christo Iesu

15 fidelis sermo et omni acceptione dignus quia Christus Iesus venit in mundum peccatores salvos facere quorum primus ego sum

16 sed ideo misericordiam consecutus sum ut in me primo ostenderet Christus Iesus omnem patientiam ad deformationem eorum qui credituri sunt illi in vitam aeternam

17 regi autem saeculorum inmortali invisibili soli Deo honor et gloria in saecula saeculorum amen

18 hoc praeceptum commendo tibi fili Timothee secundum praecedentes in te prophetias ut milites in illis bonam militiam

19 habens fidem et bonam conscientiam quam quidam repellentes circa fidem naufragaverunt

20 ex quibus est Hymeneus et Alexander quos tradidi Satanae ut discant non blasphemare
