1 Timoteori 6

1 Vztarriren azpian diraden cerbitzari guciéc, bere nabussiac ohore ororen digne estima bitzate: Iaincoaren icena eta doctriná blasphema eztitecençát.

All who are bound under slavery should consider their masters worthy of respect, so that God's name and Christian beliefs won't be defamed.

2 Eta nabussi fidelac dituztenéc, eztitzatela menosprecia ceren anaye diraden: baina aitzitic cerbitza bitzate, ceren fidelac eta onhetsiac diraden, ontassunean participant diradelaric. Gauça hauc iracats itzac eta exhorta.

Slaves who have Christian masters should not disrespect them because they are brothers. Instead they should serve them even better, because those who are benefiting from their service are fellow-believers they should love. Teach these instructions, and encourage people to follow them.

3 Baldin nehorc berce doctrinaric iracasten badu, eta consentitzen ezpadu Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren hitz sanoetan, eta pietatearen arauèzco doctrinán,

Those that teach different beliefs, and don't listen to good counsel, particularly the words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the true teachings of God,

4 Hura hantua duc, deus eztaquialaric, baina erhotzen delaric questionén eta hitzezco contentionén ondoan, hetaric sortzen dituc inuidiá, gudua, iniuriác, suspicione gaichtoac,

are arrogant and don't understand anything. They're obsessed with speculation and philosophical debates which only lead to jealousy, arguments, malicious gossip and evil suspicions—

5 Guiçon adimenduz corrumpituén eta eguiatic priuatu diradenén disputatione vanoac, estimatzen dutelaric pietatea irabazte dela: retiradi halacoetaric.

the constant arguing of people whose minds are totally corrupt and who have lost the truth, thinking that they can profit financially from religion…

6 Segur, irabazte handia duc pietatea contentamendurequin.

But knowing and following God is so incredibly satisfying!

7 Ecen deus eztiagu ekarri mundura: segura duc eraman-ere deus ecin deçaquegula.

For we didn't bring anything into the world, and we can't take anything out with us either.

8 Baina vitançá dugularic eta cerçaz estal ahal gaitecen, heçaz content içanen gaituc.

But if we have food and clothes then that's enough for us.

9 Ecen abrastu nahi diradenac, erorten dituc tentationetara eta laçora, eta anhitz desir erhotara eta caltetacotara, ceinéc hundatzen baitituzte guiçonac destructionetara eta perditionetara.

Those who are determined to become rich fall into the trap of temptation, following many foolish and damaging impulses.

10 Ecen gaitz gucién erroa auaritiá duc, cein desiratzen dutelaric batzu erauci içan baitirade fedetic, eta bere buruäc anhitz doloretan nahaspilatu vkan baitituzté.

For the desire to be rich leads to many kinds of evil results. Some of those who longed for this have turned away from the truth, and have hurt themselves, experiencing a lot of pain.

11 Baina hic, Iaincoaren guiçoná, gauça hæy ihes eguiéc, eta iarreiqui aquié iustitiari, pietateari, fedeari, charitateari, patientiari, emetassunari.

But you as a man of God should run away from such things. You should seek to do what is right, practice true religion, and trust in God. Aim to love, to be patient, and gentle.

12 Fedearen combat ona combati eçac, lot aquio vicitze eternalari, ceinetera deithu-ere baitaiz, eta confessione ona anhitz testimonioren aitzinean eguin vkan duc. (aiōnios g166)

Fight the good fight as you trust in God. Hold on tightly to the eternal life to which you were called. This is what you promised to do in front of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)

13 Denuntiatzen drauat gauça guciac viuificatzen dituen Iaincoaren, eta Iesus Christen aitzinean, ceinec testificatu vkan baitu Pontio Pilateren azpian confessione ona:

My charge to you before God the Life-giver, and before Christ Jesus who testified to the good news before Pontius Pilate,

14 Manamendu haur beguira deçán macula eta reprotchu gabe, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren aduenimendurano:

is to follow faithfully what you've been told so you will be above criticism until our Lord Jesus Christ appears.

15 Cein eracutsiren baitu bere demborán Prince benedicatuac eta bakoitzac, reguén Regueac eta iaunén Iaunac:

At the right time Jesus will be revealed—he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings, and Lord of lords.

16 Ceinec berac baitu immortalitate, nehor hurbil ecin daiten arguian habitatzen delaric, cein ezpaitu guiçonec batec-ere ikussi, ez ecin ikus baiteçaque: ceini ohore eta indar seculacotz. Amen. (aiōnios g166)

He is the only one who is immortal, and lives in unapproachable light. No one has seen him or can see him—honor and eternal power is his! Amen. (aiōnios g166)

17 Mundu hunetan abrats diradeney denuntia iecéc, eztiraden arrogant, eta ezteçaten bere sperançá eçar fermutate gabeco abrastassunetan, baina Iainco vician, ceinec emaiten baitrauzquigu abundosqui gauça guciac, vsatzeco: (aiōn g165)

Warn those who are rich in the present world not to become proud. Tell them not to place their trust in wealth that is so insecure but in God who so freely gives us everything for our enjoyment. (aiōn g165)

18 Vngui eguin deçaten, obra onez abrats diraden, emaile on eta compuntquide onetaco diraden.

Tell them to do good, and to become rich in doing good things, ready to share what they have, and to be generous.

19 Thesaurizatzen dutelaric beretaco fundament on-bat ethorquiçunera, ardiets deçatençat vicitze eternala.

In this way they store up treasure that will provide a solid basis for the future, so that they can take hold of true life.

20 O Timotheo, deposita beguireçac, ihes eguiten drauealaric oihu vanoéy eta profanoey, eta falsuqui hala deitzen den scientiaco contradictioney:

Timothy, take care of what's been given to you. Don't pay any attention to pointless chatter and arguments based on so-called “knowledge.”

21 Cein scientiaz professione eguiten çutelaric batzu fedetic erauci içan baitirade. Gratia dela hirequin. Amen.

Some who promote these ideas have wandered away from their trust in God. May grace be with you.
