1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God
our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, [which is] our hope;
1:2 Unto Timothy, [my] own son in the faith: Grace, mercy,
[and] peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
1:3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went
into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach
no other doctrine,
1:4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which
minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith:
[so do].
1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure
heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned:
1:6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain
jangling;
1:7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither
what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
1:8 But we know that the law [is] good, if a man use it
lawfully;
1:9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man,
but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for
sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and
murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
1:10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with
mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and
if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
1:11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which
was committed to my trust.
1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me,
for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
1:13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and
injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did [it] ignorantly
in unbelief.
1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with
faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
1:15 This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation,
that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom
I am chief.
1:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first
Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern
to them which should hereafter believe on him to life
everlasting.
1:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only
wise God, [be] honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1:18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to
the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them
mightest war a good warfare;
1:19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having
put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:
1:20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered
unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications,
prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all
men;
2:2 For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we may
lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
2:3 For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our
Saviour;
2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the
knowledge of the truth.
2:5 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and
men, the man Christ Jesus;
2:6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due
time.
2:7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I
speak the truth in Christ, [and] lie not;) a teacher of the
Gentiles in faith and verity.
2:8 I will therfore that men pray every where, lifting up holy
hands, without wrath and doubting.
2:9 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest
apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair,
or gold, or pearls, or costly array;
2:10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good
works.
2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority
over the man, but to be in silence.
2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived
was in the transgression.
2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if
they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
3:1 This [is] a true saying, If a man desire the office of a
bishop, he desireth a good work.
3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife,
vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to
teach;
3:3 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre;
but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;
3:4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in
subjection with all gravity;
3:5 For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall
he take care of the church of God?)
3:6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into
the condemnation of the devil.
3:7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are
without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
3:8 Likewise [must] the deacons [be] grave, not doubletongued,
not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
3:9 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
3:10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the
office of a deacon, being [found] blameless.
3:11 Even so [must their] wives [be] grave, not slanderers,
sober, faithful in all things.
3:12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their
children and their own houses well.
3:13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well
purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the
faith which is in Christ Jesus.
3:14 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee
shortly:
3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou
oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the
church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of
angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world,
received up into glory.
4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times
some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing
spirits, and doctrines of devils;
4:2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared
with a hot iron;
4:3 Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats,
which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them
