디모데전서 1장 NASB
- 1 Paul an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus who is our hope
- 2 To Timothy my true child in the faith: Grace mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
- 3 As I urged you upon my departure for Macedonia remain on at Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to teach strange doctrines
- 4 nor to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies which give rise to mere speculation rather than furthering the administration of God which is by faith.
- 5 But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
- 6 For some men straying from these things have turned aside to fruitless discussion
- 7 wanting to be teachers of the Law even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions.
- 8 But we know that the Law is good if one uses it lawfully
- 9 realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person but for those who are lawless and rebellious for the ungodly and sinners for the unholy and profane for those who kill their fathers or mothers for murderers
- 10 and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching
- 11 according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.
- 12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has strengthened me because He considered me faithful putting me into service
- 13 even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief;
- 14 and the grace of our Lord was more than abundant with the faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus.
- 15 It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners among whom I am foremost of all.
- 16 Yet for this reason I found mercy so that in me as the foremost Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in Him for eternal life.
- 17 Now to the King eternal immortal invisible the only God be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
- 18 This command I entrust to you Timothy my son in accordance with the prophecies previously made concerning you that by them you fight the good fight
- 19 keeping faith and a good conscience which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to their faith.
- 20 Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander whom I have handed over to Satan so that they will be taught not to blaspheme.
