\subsection{I Timothy 1}
\VS{1} Paul, apostle of Christ Jesus according to [the] command of God our savior and 
Christ Jesus our hope, 
\VS{2} to Timothy, true child in [the] faith: Grace, hope, 
peace from God [the] father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

\VS{3} Just as I encouraged you to remain in Ephesus, going to Macedonia, 
that you command some to be teaching nothing other, 
\VS{4} neither to be paying attention to myths and endless genealogies, 
which give rise to endless-speculation rather than [to the] godly 
upbuilding in faith, [so do]. 
\VS{5} Now the end\footnote{or ``completion''} of the command is agape-love 
from [a] pure heart and [a] good conscience and [a] sincere faith, 
\VS{6} from which some, having deviated, have turned away to futile-words, 
\VS{7} wanting to be 
teachers of the law, knowing neither what they say nor [that] [about] which they insist. 
\VS{8} But we know that the law is good, if anyone use it lawfully, 
\VS{9} knowing this: that to the just [one the] law does not apply, but to the lawless and rebellious\footnote{or ``undisciplined''}, [the] impious and sinners, 
[the] unholy and profane, to father-murderers and mother-murderers, 
to men\footnote{or ``husband''}-murderers, 
\VS{10} to fornicators, to homosexuals, to slave-dealers\footnote{or ``kidnappers''}, 
to liars, to perjurers, and any other [thing] opposed to 
sound\footnote{or ``healthy''} teaching, 
\VS{11} according 
to the good-news of the glory of the blessed God, which I was entrusted. 
\VS{12} I have grace for the [one] having enabled me, [namely] Christ Jesus our Lord, because he considered me trustworthy, having appointed me for service, 
\VS{13} [who] was formerly slanderer and persecutor and insolent, but I obtained 
mercy, because, being ignorant, I did it in unbelief. 
\VS{14} But the grace 
of our Lord overflowed with belief and agape-love [which is] in Christ Jesus. 
\VS{15} [this] word is trustworthy and worthy of all approval, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am foremost, 
\VS{16} but because of this I obtained mercy, in order that in me first Jesus Christ show all 
long-suffering, for [a] model to those [about] to be believing upon him for zoe-life\fnZoe{} eternal. 
\VS{17} Now to the king of the eternities, to the imperishable, 
invisible, only God [be] honor and glory to the eternities of eternities, Amen. 
\VS{18} This commandment I set before you, son Timothy, according to the 
prophecies having come before you, that you war by them [a] good war, 
\VS{19} having faith and [a] good conscience, which some, having rejected concerning 
faith, have shipwrecked, 
\VS{20} of whom are Hymenaius and Alexander, whom I 
have delivered up to Satan, in order that they learn to not be slandering 
[God].
