1Timothy 1

1. Paul <3972>, an apostle <652> of Jesus < 2424> Christ <5547>
by

the commandment <2003> of God <2316> our Saviour < 4990>, and Lord

<2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, [which < 3588> is] our hope

<1680>;

2 Unto Timothy <5095>, [my] own <1103> son < 5043> in the faith

<4102>: Grace <5485>, mercy <1656>, [and] peace <1515>, from God

<2316> our Father <3962> and Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our Lord

<2962>.

3 As I besought <3870> thee to abide <4357> still <4357> at
<1722>

Ephesus <2181>, when I went <4198> into <1519> Macedonia <3109>,

that thou mightest charge <3853> some <5100> that they teach
<2085>

no <3361> other <2085> doctrine,

4 Neither <3366> give heed <4337> to fables < 3454> and endless

<562> genealogies <1076>, which <3748> minister <3930> questions

<2214>, rather <3123> than <2228> godly < 2316> edifying <3618>
which

<3588> is in faith <4102>: [so do].

5. Now <1161> the end <5056> of the commandment < 3852> is
charity

<26> out of a pure <2513> heart <2588>, and [of] a good <18>

conscience <4893>, and [of] faith <4102> unfeigned <505>:

6 From which <3739> some <5100> having swerved < 795> have
turned

<1824> aside <1824> unto vain <3150> jangling <3150>;

7 Desiring <2309> to be teachers <3547> of the law <3547>;

understanding <4920> neither <3383> what <3739> they say <3004>,
nor

<3383> whereof <5101> they affirm <1226>.

8 But we know <1492> that the law <3551> [is] good <2570>, if

<1437> a man <5100> use <5530> it lawfully < 3545>;

9 Knowing <1492> this <5124>, that the law < 3551> is not made

<2749> for a righteous <1342> man, but for the lawless <459> and

disobedient <506>, for the ungodly <765> and for sinners <268>,
for

unholy <462> and profane <952>, for murderers < 3964> of fathers

<3964> and murderers <3389> of mothers <3389>, for manslayers
<409>,

10 For whoremongers <4205>, for them that defile < 733>
themselves

with mankind <733>, for menstealers <405>, for liars <5583>, for

perjured <1965> persons <678>, and if <1487> there be any <1536>

other <2087> thing that is contrary <480> to sound <5198>
doctrine

<1319>;

11 According <2596> to the glorious <1391> gospel <2098> of the

blessed <3107> God <2316>, which <3739> was committed <4100> to
my

trust <4100>.

12. And I thank <5485> Christ <5547> Jesus < 2424> our Lord
<2962>,

who <3588> hath enabled <1743> me, for that he counted <2233> me

faithful <4103>, putting <5087> me into <1519> the ministry
<1248>;

13 Who <3588> was before <4386> a blasphemer < 989>, and a

persecutor <1376>, and injurious <5197>: but I obtained <1653>
mercy

<1653>, because <3754> I did [it] ignorantly < 50> in unbelief
<570>.

14 And the grace <5485> of our Lord <2962> was exceeding <5250>

abundant <5250> with faith <4102> and love <26> which <3588> is
in

Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>.

15 This <3588> [is] a faithful <4103> saying < 3056>, and worthy

<514> of all <3956> acceptation <594>, that Christ <5547> Jesus

<2424> came <2064> into <1519> the world < 2889> to save <4982>

sinners <268>; of whom <3739> I am <1510> chief <4413>.

16 Howbeit <235> for this <5124> cause <1223> I obtained <1653>

mercy <1653>, that in me first <4413> Jesus < 2424> Christ <5547>

might shew <1731> forth <1731> all <3956> longsuffering <3115>,
for

a pattern <5296> to them which should <3195> hereafter <3195>

believe <4100> on <1909> him to life <2222> everlasting <166>.

17 Now <1161> unto the King <935> eternal < 165>, immortal
<862>,

invisible <517>, the only <3441> wise <4680> God <2316>, [be]
honour

<5092> and glory <1391> for ever <165> and ever <165>. Amen
<281>.

18. This <5026> charge <3852> I commit <3908> unto thee, son
<5043>

Timothy <5095>, according <2596> to the prophecies <4394> which
went

<4254> before <4254> on <1909> thee, that thou by them mightest
war

<4754> a good <2570> warfare <4752>;

19 Holding <2192> faith <4102>, and a good < 18> conscience
<4893>;

which <3739> some <5100> having put <683> away <683> concerning

<4012> faith <4102> have made <3489> shipwreck <3489>:

20 Of whom <3739> is Hymenaeus <5211> and Alexander <223>; whom

<3739> I have delivered <3860> unto Satan <4567> , that they may

learn <3811> not to blaspheme <987>.

1Timothy 2

1. I exhort <3870> therefore <3767>, that, first < 4412> of all

<3956>, supplications <1162>, prayers <4335>, intercessions
<1783>,

[and] giving of thanks <2169>, be made <4160> for all <3956> men

<444>;

2 For kings <935>, and [for] all <3956> that are in authority

<5247>; that we may lead <1236> a quiet <2263> and peaceable
<2272>

life <979> in all <3956> godliness <2150> and honesty <4587>.

3 For this <5124> [is] good <2570> and acceptable <587> in the

sight <1799> of God <2316> our Saviour <4990>;

4 Who <3739> will <2309> have all <3956> men <444> to be saved

<4982>, and to come <2064> unto the knowledge < 1922> of the truth

<225>.

5 For [there is] one <1520> God <2316>, and one < 1520> mediator

<3316> between God <2316> and men <444>, the man <444> Christ
<5547>

Jesus <2424>;

6 Who <3588> gave <1325> himself <1438> a ransom <487> for all

<3956>, to be testified <3142> in due <2398> time <2540>.

7 Whereunto <3739> I am ordained <5087> a preacher <2783>, and
an

apostle <652>, (I speak <3004> the truth <225> in Christ <5547>,

[and] lie <5574> not;) a teacher <1320> of the Gentiles <1484> in

faith <4102> and verity <225>.

8 I will <1014> therefore <3767> that men < 435> pray <4336>
every

<3956> where <5117>, lifting <1869> up holy < 3741> hands <5495>,

without <5565> wrath <3709> and doubting <1261>.

9. In like <5615> manner also <2532>, that women < 1135> adorn

<2885> themselves <1438> in modest <2887> apparel <2689>, with

shamefacedness <127> and sobriety <4997>; not with broided <4117>

hair <4117>, or <2228> gold <5557>, or < 2228> pearls <3135>, or

<2228> costly <4185> array <2441>;

10 But (which <3739> becometh <516> women < 1135> professing
<1861>

godliness <2317>) with good <18> works <2041>.

11 Let the woman <1135> learn <3129> in silence < 2271> with all

<3956> subjection <5292>.

12 But I suffer <2010> not a woman <1135> to teach <1321>, nor

<3761> to usurp <831> authority <831> over the man <435>, but to
be

in silence <2271>.

13 For Adam <76> was first <4413> formed < 4111>, then <1534>
Eve

<2096>.

14 And Adam <76> was not deceived <538>, but the woman <1135>

being deceived <538> was in the transgression <3847>.

15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved <4982> in childbearing

<5042>, if <1437> they continue <3306> in faith <4102> and
charity

<26> and holiness <38> with sobriety <4997>.

1Timothy 3

1. This <3588> [is] a true <4103> saying <3056> , If <1487> a man

<5100> desire <3713> the office <1984> of a bishop <1984>, he

desireth <1937> a good <2570> work <2041>.

2 A bishop <1985> then <3767> must <1163> be blameless <483>,
the

husband <435> of one <3391> wife <1135>, vigilant <3524>, sober

<4998>, of good behaviour <2887>, given to hospitality <5382>,
apt

<1317> to teach <1317>;

3 Not given <3943> to wine <3943>, no <3361> striker <4131>,
not

greedy <866> of filthy lucre <866>; but patient < 1933>, not a

brawler <269>, not covetous <866>;

4 One that ruleth <4291> well <2573> his own < 2398> house
<3624>,

having <2192> his children <5043> in subjection < 5292> with all

<3956> gravity <4587>;

5 (For if <1487> a man <5100> know <1492> not how to rule
<4291>

his own <2398> house <3624>, how <4459> shall he take care
<1959> of

the church <1577> of God <2316>?)

6 Not a novice <3504>, lest <3361> being lifted < 5188> up with

pride <5187> he fall <1706> into <1519> the condemnation <2917>
of

the devil <1228>.

7 Moreover <1161> he must <1163> have <2192> a good <2570>
report

<3141> of them which are without <1855>; lest < 3361> he fall into

<1519> reproach <3680> and the snare <3803> of the devil <1228>.

8. Likewise <5615> [must] the deacons <1249> [be] grave <4586>,
not

doubletongued <1351>, not given <4337> to much < 4183> wine
<3631>,

not greedy <146> of filthy lucre <146>;

9 Holding <2192> the mystery <3466> of the faith <4102> in a
pure

<2513> conscience <4893>.

10 And let these <3778> also <2532> first < 4412> be proved
<1381>;

then <1534> let them use the office <1247> of a deacon <1247>,
being

<5607> [found] blameless <410>.

11 Even <5615> so <5615> [must their] wives < 1135> [be] grave

<4586>, not slanderers <1228>, sober <3524>, faithful <4103> in
all

<3956> things.

12 Let the deacons <1249> be the husbands <435> of one <3391>
wife

<1135>, ruling <4291> their children <5043> and their own <2398>

houses <3624> well <2573>.

13 For they that have used <1247> the office <1247> of a deacon

<1247> well <2573> purchase <4046> to themselves <1438> a good

<2570> degree <898>, and great <4183> boldness <3954> in the
faith

<4102> which <3588> is in Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>.

14. These <5023> things write <1125> I unto thee, hoping <1679>
to

come <2064> unto thee shortly <5032>:

15 But if <1437> I tarry <1019> long, that thou mayest know
<1492>

how <4459> thou oughtest <1163> to behave <390> thyself in the
house

<3624> of God <2316>, which <3748> is the church <1577> of the

living <2198> God <2316>, the pillar <4769> and ground <1477> of
the

truth <225>.

16 And without <3672> controversy <3672> great < 3173> is the

mystery <3466> of godliness <2150>: God <2316> was manifest
<5319>

in the flesh <4561>, justified <1344> in the Spirit <4151>, seen

<3700> of angels <32>, preached <2784> unto the Gentiles <1484>,

believed <4100> on in the world <2889>, received < 353> up into

<1722> glory <1391>.

1Timothy 4

1. Now <1161> the Spirit <4151> speaketh <3004> expressly
<4490>,

that in the latter <5305> times <2540> some < 5100> shall depart

<868> from the faith <4102>, giving heed <4337> to seducing
<4108>

spirits <4151>, and doctrines <1319> of devils < 1140>;

2 Speaking <5573> lies <5573> in hypocrisy < 5272>; having their

conscience <4893> seared <2743> with a hot < 2743> iron;

3 Forbidding <2967> to marry <1060>, [and commanding] to
abstain

<567> from meats <1033>, which <3739> God < 2316> hath created
<2936>

to be received <3336> with thanksgiving <2169> of them which
believe

<4103> and know <1921> the truth <225>.

4 For every <3956> creature <2938> of God < 2316> [is] good
<2570>,

and nothing <3762> to be refused <579>, if it be received <2983>

with thanksgiving <2169>:

5 For it is sanctified <37> by the word <3056> of God <2316>
and

prayer <1783>.

6. If thou put <5294> the brethren <80> in remembrance <5294> of

these <5023> things, thou shalt be a good <2570> minister <1249>
of

Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, nourished <1789> up in the words
<3056>

of faith <4102> and of good <2570> doctrine < 1319>, whereunto
<3739>

thou hast attained <3877>.

7 But refuse <3868> profane <952> and old < 1126> wives <1126>'

fables <3454>, and exercise <1128> thyself < 4572> [rather] unto

godliness <2150>.

8 For bodily <4984> exercise <1129> profiteth < 5624> little

<3641>: but godliness <2150> is profitable < 5624> unto all <3956>

things, having <2192> promise <1860> of the life < 2222> that now

<3568> is, and of that which is to come <3195>.

9 This <3588> [is] a faithful <4103> saying < 3056> and worthy

<514> of all <3956> acceptation <594>.

10 For therefore <5124> we both <2532> labour < 2872> and suffer

reproach <3679>, because <3754> we trust <1679> in the living
<2198>

God <2316>, who <3739> is the Saviour <4990> of all <3956> men

<444>, specially <3122> of those that believe < 4103>.

11 These <5023> things command <3853> and teach < 1321>.

12 Let no <3367> man <3367> despise <2706> thy youth <3503>;
but

be thou an example <5179> of the believers <4103>, in word
<3056>,

in conversation <391>, in charity <26>, in spirit < 4151>, in
faith

<4102>, in purity <47>.

13 Till <2193> I come <2064>, give attendance < 4337> to reading

<320>, to exhortation <3874>, to doctrine <1319> .

14 Neglect <272> not the gift <5486> that is in thee, which
<3739>

was given <1325> thee by prophecy <4394>, with the laying <1936>
on

<1936> of the hands <5495> of the presbytery < 4244>.

15 Meditate <3191> upon these <5023> things; give <2468>
thyself

wholly <1722> to them; that thy profiting <4297> may appear
<5600>

to all <3956>.

16 Take heed <1907> unto thyself <4572>, and unto the doctrine

<1319>; continue <1961> in them: for in doing < 4160> this <5124>

thou shalt both <2532> save <4982> thyself < 4572>, and them that

hear <191> thee.

1Timothy 5

1. Rebuke <1969> not an elder <4245>, but intreat <3870> [him]
as a

father <3962>; [and] the younger <3501> men as brethren <80>;

2 The elder <4245> women as mothers <3384>; the younger <3501>
as

sisters <79>, with all <3956> purity <47>.

3. Honour <5091> widows <5503> that are widows < 5503> indeed

<3689>.

4 But if <1487> any <5100> widow <5503> have <2192> children

<5043> or <2228> nephews <1549>, let them learn <3129> first
<4412>

to shew <2151> piety <2151> at home <2398>, and to requite <287>

their parents <4269>: for that is good <2570> and acceptable
<587>

before <1799> God <2316>.

5 Now <1161> she that is a widow <5503> indeed < 3689>, and

desolate <3443>, trusteth <1679> in God <2316>, and continueth

<4357> in supplications <1162> and prayers < 4335> night <3571>
and

day <2250>.

6 But she that liveth <2198> in pleasure <4684> is dead <2348>

while she liveth <2198>.

7 And these <5023> things give in charge <3853>, that they may
be

blameless <483>.

8 But if <1487> any <5100> provide <4306> not for his own
<2398>,

and specially <3122> for those <3588> of his own < 2398> house

<3609>, he hath denied <720> the faith <4102>, and is worse
<5501>

than an infidel <571>.

9 Let not a widow <5503> be taken <2639> into the number <2639>

under <1640> threescore <1835> years <2094> old, having been
<1096>

the wife <1135> of one <1520> man <435>,

10 Well <3140> reported <3140> of for good < 2570> works <2041>;
if

<1487> she have brought <5044> up children < 5044>, if <1487> she

have lodged <3580> strangers <3580>, if <1487> she have washed

<3538> the saints <40>' feet <4228>, if < 1487> she have relieved

<1884> the afflicted <2346>, if <1487> she have diligently
followed

<1872> every <3956> good <18> work <2041>.

11 But the younger <3501> widows <5503> refuse < 3868>: for when

<3752> they have begun <2691> to wax <2691> wanton <2691> against

<2691> Christ <5547>, they will <2309> marry <1060>;

12 Having <2192> damnation <2917>, because < 3754> they have
cast

<114> off <114> their first <4413> faith < 4102>.

13 And withal <260> they learn <3129> [to be] idle <692>,

wandering <4022> about <4022> from house <3614> to house <3614>;
and

not only <3440> idle <692>, but tattlers <5397> also <2532> and

busybodies <4021>, speaking <2980> things which < 3588> they ought

<1163> not.

14 I will <1014> therefore <3767> that the younger <3501> women

marry <1060>, bear <5041> children <5041>, guide <3616> the house

<3616>, give <1325> none <3361> occasion < 874> to the adversary

<480> to speak reproachfully <5484>.

15 For some <5100> are already <2235> turned < 1824> aside
<1824>

after <3694> Satan <4567>.

16 If <1487> any <1536> man or <2228> woman that believeth
<4103>

have <2192> widows <5503>, let them relieve < 1884> them, and let
not

the church <1577> be charged <916>; that it may relieve <1884>
them

that are widows <5503> indeed <3689>.

17. Let the elders <4245> that rule <4291> well < 2573> be
counted

<515> worthy <515> of double <1362> honour < 5092>, especially
<3122>

they who labour <2872> in the word <3056> and doctrine <1319>.

18 For the scripture <1124> saith <3004>, Thou shalt not muzzle

<5392> the ox <1016> that treadeth <248> out the corn. And, The

labourer <2040> [is] worthy <514> of his reward < 3408>.

19 Against <2596> an elder <4245> receive < 3858> not an
accusation

<2724>, but before <1909> two <1417> or < 2228> three <5140>

witnesses <3144>.

20 Them that sin <264> rebuke <1651> before < 1799> all <3956>,

that others <3062> also <2532> may fear <2192>.

21 I charge <1263> [thee] before <1799> God < 2316>, and the
Lord

<2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, and the elect <1588> angels
<32>,

that thou observe <5442> these <5023> things without <5565>

preferring <4299> one before <4299> another < 4299>, doing <4160>

nothing <3367> by partiality <4346>.

22 Lay <2007> hands <5495> suddenly <5030> on <2007> no <3367>
man

<3367>, neither <3366> be partaker <2841> of other <245> men's
sins

<266>: keep <5083> thyself <4572> pure < 53>.

23 Drink <5202> no <3371> longer <3371> water <5203>, but use

<5530> a little <3641> wine <3631> for thy stomach's <4751> sake
and

thine <4675> often <4437> infirmities <769>.

24 Some <5100> men's sins <266> are open < 4271> beforehand
<4271>,

going <4254> before <4254> to judgment <2920>; and some <5100>
[men

<444>] they follow <1872> after <1872>.

25 Likewise <5615> also <2532> the good <2570> works <2041> [of

some] are manifest <4271> beforehand <4271>; and they that are

otherwise <247> cannot <1410> be hid <2928>.

1Timothy 6

1. Let as many <3745> servants <1401> as are under <5259> the
yoke

<2218> count <2233> their own <2398> masters <1203> worthy <514>
of

all <3956> honour <5092>, that the name <3686> of God <2316> and

[his] doctrine <1319> be not blasphemed <987>.

2 And they that have <2192> believing <4103> masters <1203>,
let

them not despise <2706> [them], because <3754> they are brethren

<80>; but rather <3123> do <1398> [them] service <1398>, because

<3754> they are faithful <4103> and beloved <27> , partakers
<482> of

the benefit <2108>. These <5023> things teach < 1321> and exhort

<3870>.

3 If <1487> any <1536> man teach <2085> otherwise <2085>, and

consent <4334> not to wholesome <5198> words < 3056>, [even] the

words of our Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ < 5547>, and to the

doctrine <1319> which is according <2596> to godliness <2150>;

4 He is proud <5187>, knowing <1987> nothing < 3367>, but doting

<3552> about <4012> questions <2214> and strifes <3055> of words

<3055>, whereof <3739> cometh <1096> envy < 5355>, strife <2054>,

railings <988>, evil <4190> surmisings <5283>,

5 Perverse <3859> disputings <3859> of men < 444> of corrupt
<1311>

minds <3563>, and destitute <650> of the truth < 225>, supposing

<3543> that gain <4200> is godliness <2150>: from such <5108>

withdraw <868> thyself.

6. But godliness <2150> with contentment <841> is great <3173>
gain

<4200>.

7 For we brought <1533> nothing <3762> into < 1519> [this
<3588>]

world <2889>, [and it is] certain <1212> we can < 1410> carry
<1627>

nothing <5100> out.

8 And having <2192> food <1305> and raiment < 4629> let us be

therewith <5125> content <714>.

9 But they that will <1014> be rich <4147> fall into <1519>

temptation <3986> and a snare <3803>, and [into < 1519>] many
<4183>

foolish <453> and hurtful <983> lusts <1939>, which <3748> drown

<1036> men <444> in destruction <3639> and perdition <684>.

10 For the love <5365> of money <5365> is the root <4491> of
all

<3956> evil <2556>: which <3739> while some < 5100> coveted <3713>

after, they have erred <635> from the faith <4102>, and pierced

<4044> themselves <1438> through <4044> with many <4183> sorrows

<3601>.

11 But thou, O man <444> of God <2316>, flee < 5343> these
<5023>

things; and follow <1377> after righteousness <1343>, godliness

<2150>, faith <4102>, love <26>, patience < 5281>, meekness
<4236>.

12 Fight <75> the good <2570> fight <73> of faith <4102>, lay

<1949> hold <1949> on <1949> eternal <166> life <2222>, whereunto

<3739> thou art also <2532> called <2564>, and hast professed
<3670>

a good <2570> profession <3671> before <1799> many <4183>
witnesses

<3144>.

13. I give thee charge <3853> in the sight <1799> of God <2316>,

who <3588> quickeneth <2227> all <3956> things, and [before]
Christ

<5547> Jesus <2424>, who <3588> before < 1909> Pontius <4194>
Pilate

<4091> witnessed <3140> a good <2570> confession <3671>;

14 That thou keep <5083> [this <3588>] commandment <1785>
without

<784> spot <784>, unrebukeable <423>, until < 3360> the appearing

<2015> of our Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>:

15 Which <3739> in his times <2540> he shall shew <1166>, [who

<3588> is] the blessed <3107> and only <3441> Potentate <1413>,
the

King <935> of kings <936>, and Lord <2962> of lords <2961>;

16 Who <3588> only <3441> hath <2192> immortality <110>,
dwelling

<3611> in the light <5457> which <3739> no < 3762> man can
approach

<676> unto; whom <3739> no <3762> man < 444> hath seen <1492>, nor

<3761> can <1410> see <1492>: to whom < 3739> [be] honour <5092>
and

power <2904> everlasting <166>. Amen <281>.

17 Charge <3853> them that are rich <4145> in this <3568> world

<165>, that they be not highminded <5309>, nor < 3366> trust
<1679>

in uncertain <83> riches <4149>, but in the living <2198> God

<2316>, who <3588> giveth <3930> us richly < 4146> all <3956>
things

to enjoy <619>;

18 That they do <14> good <14>, that they be rich <4147> in
good

<2570> works <2041>, ready <2130> to distribute <2130>, willing

<2843> to communicate <2843>;

19 Laying <597> up in store <597> for themselves <1438> a good

<2570> foundation <2310> against <1519> the time <3195> to come

<3195>, that they may lay <1949> hold <1949> on <1949> eternal
<166>

life <2222>.

20 O Timothy <5095>, keep <5442> that which is committed
<3872> to

thy trust, avoiding <1624> profane <952> [and] vain <2757>
babblings

<2757>, and oppositions <477> of science <1108> falsely <5581> so

called <5581>:

21 Which <3739> some <5100> professing <1861> have erred <795>

concerning <4012> the faith <4102>. Grace <5485> [be] with thee.

Amen <281>.
