1 Timothy 6
1 Let as many as are bondservants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.
Kateri so hlapci pod jarmom, naj imajo svoje gospode za vse česti vredne, da se ne govori pregrešno o Bogu in nauku.
2 Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.
Kateri pa imajo verne gospode, naj jih ne zaničujejo, ker so bratje; nego tem bolj naj služijo, ker so verni in ljubljeni, kateri sprejemajo dobroto. Tako úči in opominjaj.
3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine and doesn’t consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,
Ako kdo drugače uči in ne pristopi zdravim besedam Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa in nauku k pobožnosti,
4 he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, insulting, evil suspicions,
Oslepljen je in nič ne umé, nego boleha za pregovarjanji in besednimi prepiri, iz česar postane zavist, prepir, preklinjanje, natolcevanje;
5 constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. Withdraw yourself from such.
Nepotrebni opravki ljudî popačenih v duhu in brez resnice, ki mislijo, da je pobožnost pridobivanje. Ogiblji se takih.
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
Je pa pridobivanje veliko pobožnost sè zadovoljnostjo.
7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can’t carry anything out.
Kajti ničesar nismo prinesli na svet, jasno, da tudi odnesti ne moremo ničesar;
8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.
Če pa imamo hrane in odeje, bodimo s tem zadovoljni.
9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction.
Kateri pa hočejo biti bogati, padejo v izkušnjavo in past in mnoga poželenja nespametna in škodljiva, katera pogrezajo ljudî v pogubljenje in pogin.
10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
Kajti vsega zlega korenina je lakomnost; njej vdani so nekateri zabredli od vere in prebodli se z mnogimi bolečinami.
11 But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.
Ti pa, o človek Božji, ogiblji se tega; hodi pa za pravico, pobožnostjo, vero, ljubeznijo, stanovitnostjo, krotkostjo.
12 Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)
Bij lepi boj vere; poprimi se večnega življenja, za katero si bil tudi poklican in si spoznal lepo spoznanje pred mnogimi pričami. (aiōnios g166)
13 I command you before God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,
Naročam ti pred Bogom, ki vse oživlja, in Kristusom Jezusom, kateri je pričal pred Poncijem Pilatom lepo spoznanje,
14 that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Da hraniš zapoved brez madeža, brez napake, do prihoda Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa.
15 which at the right time he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords.
Katerega bode o svojem času prikazal blaženi in edini vladar, kralj kraljujočih in gospodujočih gospod,
16 He alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen nor can see, to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen. (aiōnios g166)
Kateri ima sam neumrjočnost, v svetlobi bivajoč ne dohodni; katerega ni videl ljudî nobeden, in tudi videti ne more; njemu čast in moč večna! Amen. (aiōnios g166)
17 Charge those who are rich in this present age that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; (aiōn g165)
Bogatinom na tem svetu naročaj, naj se ne prevzemajo; in naj ne zaupajo v bogastva negotovost, nego v Boga živega, kateri nam delí vsega obilo v uživanje; (aiōn g165)
18 that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to share;
Naj dobro delajo, bogati v dobrih delih, radodarni, podeljivi:
19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life.
Naj si nabirajo zaklade v dobro podstavo za prihodnjost, da se poprimejo večnega življenja.
20 Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,
O Timotej, brani zalogo ogibajoč se posvetnega govoričenja in nasprotij krivo imenovane znanosti,
21 which some profess, and thus have wandered from the faith. Grace be with you. Amen.
Katero spoznavajoč so nekateri izgrešili vero. Milost s teboj! Amen. Timoteju list prvi pisan iz Laodiceje, katera jo glavno mesto Frigije Pakacijane.
