\subsection{I Timothy 6}
|
|
\VS{1} As many as are slaves under yoke, let\fnImperative{} them reckon their
|
|
own masters\fnDespotes() worthy of all honor, in order that the name of God and the
|
|
teaching not be being slandered.
|
|
\VS{2} And those having believing masters\fnDespotes(),
|
|
let\fnImperative{} them not despise [them], because they are brothers, but
|
|
rather let\fnImperative{} them be slaving [to them] because they are
|
|
trustworthy and agape-beloved, those devoting themselves to doing good. Be
|
|
teaching and exhorting these [things].
|
|
\VS{3} If anyone teaches otherwise and does
|
|
not come with healthy words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the
|
|
teaching according to piety,
|
|
\VS{4} he is conceited, understanding nothing,
|
|
but craving for controversy and debate, from which comes envy, strife,
|
|
slanders, wicked\fnPoneros{} suspicions,
|
|
\VS{5} mutual irritation of men of corrupt mind
|
|
and depraved of the truth, thinking piety to be [a] means-of-gain.
|
|
\VS{6} But piety is means of great gain with
|
|
self-sufficiency\footnote{or ``contentment'},
|
|
\VS{7} for we brought nothing into the world, [it is] manifest
|
|
that we can take nothing out.
|
|
\VS{8} So having sustenance and clothing, with
|
|
these we will be content.
|
|
\VS{9} But those intending to be being wealthy
|
|
fall into [a] test and snare and many mindless and harmful lusts, which plunge
|
|
men into ruin and destruction.
|
|
\VS{10} For the philia-love of money is [the] root
|
|
of all evil, which some aspiring to, have been deceived from the faith, and
|
|
pierced themselves with many woes.
|
|
\VS{11} But you, O man of God, be fleeing
|
|
these [things], but be pursuing justness, piety, faith, agape-love, endurance,
|
|
humility.
|
|
\VS{12} Be fighting the good fight of faith, take hold of eternal
|
|
zoe-life\fnZoe{}, to which you were called and have confessed the good confession before
|
|
many witnesses.
|
|
\VS{13} I command you before the God making everything zoe-alive\fnZoe{}
|
|
and [the] Christ Jesus having witnessed before Pontius Pilate the good
|
|
confession,
|
|
\VS{14} to keep the commandment spotless, irreproachable, until
|
|
the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
|
|
\VS{15} which in his own times\fnKairos() he will show who is the blessed
|
|
and only Potentate, the king of those being king and Lord of those being Lord,
|
|
\VS{16} the only [one] having immortality,
|
|
dwelling in light unapproachable, which man has not seen nor is able to see;
|
|
to whom [be] honor and might forever, Amen.
|
|
\VS{17} To those being wealthy in
|
|
the present age be commanding [them] not to be being high-minded, nor to hope in
|
|
uncertain wealth, but upon the God supplying you everything richly for
|
|
enjoyment,
|
|
\VS{18} [commanding them] to be doing good, to be being rich in good works, to be
|
|
generous, sharing,
|
|
\VS{19} treasuring up to themselves [a] good foundation
|
|
against the [time] [about] to be, in order that they take hold of zoe-life\fnZoe{} indeed.
|
|
|
|
\VS{20} O Timothy, guard [that] deposited [with you], turning away from profane chatter and
|
|
contradiction of so-called knowledge,
|
|
\VS{21} which some, professing, have
|
|
deviated from the faith. Grace [be]\footnote{or ``[is]''} with you.
