Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Savior, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;

2

To Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

3

As I sought you to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that you might charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

4

Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.

5

Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:

6

From which some having swerved have turned aside to vain jangling;

7

Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

8

But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;

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 murderers,

10

For fornicators, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for enslavers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

11

According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

12

And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

13

Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

14

And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

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.

16

However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

17

Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

18

This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on you, that you by them might war a good warfare;

19

Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

20

Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

1

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

3

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior;

4

Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

5

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

6

Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

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.

8

I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

9

In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with modesty and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

10

But (which becomes women professing godliness) with good works.

11

Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

12

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

13

For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

14

And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

15

Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

1

This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desires a good work.

2

A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

3

Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;

4

One that rules well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;

5

(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God? )

6

Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

7

Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

8

Likewise must the deacons be grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;

9

Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.

10

And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.

11

Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.

12

Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

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.

14

These things write I to you, hoping to come to you shortly:

15

But if I tarry long, that you may know how you ought to behave yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

16

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

1

Now the Spirit speaks expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

2

Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

3

Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God has created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

4

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

5

For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

6

If you put the brothers in remembrance of these things, you shall be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto you have attained.

7

But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise yourself rather to godliness.

8

For bodily exercise profits little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

9

This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

10

For therefore we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, specially of those that believe.

11

These things command and teach.

12

Let no man despise your youth; but be you an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

13

Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

14

Neglect not the gift that is in you, which was given you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.

15

Meditate on these things; give yourself wholly to them; that your profiting may appear to all.

16

Take heed to yourself, and to the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this you shall both save yourself, and them that hear you.
