1 Timoteori 4
1 Bada Spirituac claroqui erraiten dic ecen azqueneco demboretan reuoltaturen diradela batzu fedetic spiritu abusariey behatzen çaiztela, eta deabruén doctriney,
[God’s] Spirit has clearly told us that in later times some people will stop believing the [teaching] that [all of us] believe. Instead, they will listen to [evil] spirits who deceive [people. They will also believe the false] doctrines/teachings that [they receive from] these evil spirits.
2 Hypocrisiaz gueçurrac iracasten dituztenén doctriney, ceinén conscientiá cauterizatua baita,
The people who teach those false doctrines/teachings are liars! And they do not feel at all guilty [MET] [when they teach such teachings]!
3 Defendatzen dutelaric ezconcea eta viandetaric iatea, cein Iaincoac creatu baitrauzte vsatzeco remerciamendurequin fideley, eta eguiá eçagutu vkan duteney.
[For example], they forbid [believers] to marry [because they say that it makes us unacceptable to God]. They also [command] that people abstain from [eating certain] foods. But God created such foods in order that we can eat them! We who believe [in Christ] know the true [teaching], and we thank [God for the food that he gives us. That is why we] can eat it.
4 Ecen Iaincoaren creatura gucia duc on, eta deus ez iraizteco, baldin remerciamendurequin recebitzen bada.
[We can eat all kinds of food] because God has created all [food], and it is all good. We should not refuse to eat certain kinds of food if we thank [God for it] when we eat it.
5 Ecen creaturá sanctificatu dihoac Iaincoaren hitzaz eta orationez.
It is acceptable [to God] because God [long ago] said [that all things that he made are good], and because we pray that God will bless it.
6 Gauça hauc baldin proposa badietzéc anayey Iesus Christen ministre on aiçate, haci içanic fedearen, eta diligentqui iarreiqui atzayón doctrina onaren hitzetan.
When you teach these things to your fellow believers, you will be showing that you, [whom] Christ Jesus [appointed], serve them well. You will have become strong [spiritually] (by holding fast/by obeying) the true message that [we all] believe.
7 Baina iraizquic fable profanoac eta atsoenac irudiac: eta exerci eçac eure buruä pietatean.
You must completely reject godless, silly/foolish stories [from your ancestors that old people tell]. Keep training yourself so that you have more (godly behavior/behavior that pleases God).
8 Ecen exercitatione corporala probetchu gutitaco duc: baina pietatea gauça gucietara probetchutaco duc, presenteco vicitzearen eta ethortecoaren promessa duelaric.
[Some people say], “It helps us in some ways if we exercise our bodies.” But [I say that] people benefit very much if they live (in a godly way/in a way that pleases God), because [if people live in a godly way, that] will benefit them both while they live now and when they live in the future life [in heaven].
9 Hitz segura duc haur, eta guciz recebi dadin dignea.
Those are words that are absolutely true, and everybody should believe them!
10 Ecen halacotz trabaillatzen-ere gaituc, eta escarniatzen, ceren sperança baitugu Iainco vician, cein baita guiçon gucién Saluadore, eta principalqui fidelén.
This is the reason why we work so hard [DOU] [for others], because we confidently expect that God, who is all-powerful, [will do the things that he has promised]. He is the one who [wants to] save all people, [so he protects them]. He certainly [protects us] who believe [in Christ]!
11 Gauça hauc denuntiaitzac eta iracats.
Command these things and teach these things.
12 Nehorc hire gaztetassuna ezteçala menosprecia: baina aicen fidelén exemplu hitzean, conuersationean, charitatean, spirituan, fedean, puritatean.
[Timothy], by the way you conduct your life, show the believers [in your congregation] how they should conduct their lives. Specifically, speak [good things], conduct yourself [well], love [people], trust [God], and be pure in every way. If you do all that, no one will [have any reason] (to belittle/to treat you disrespectfully) because of your being young.
13 Ethor nadin artean, aquió iracurtzeari, exhortatzeari, doctrinari.
Until I come, be sure that you read [the Scriptures to the congregation] and that you exhort/urge them [to obey the Scriptures], and teach them.
14 Ezteçála menosprecia hitan den dohaina, cein eman içan baitzaic prophetiaz, Ancianoén compainiaren escuén impositionearequin.
Do not forget [to use] the [abilities that God] gave to you as a result of [people/us] (prophesying/telling what God revealed to them) [about you], and as a result of the elders putting their hands on you [to commission/appoint you to do God’s work].
15 Gauça hauc praticaitzac, eta aicén gauça hautan attento: hire auançamendua agueri dençat gucién artean.
Do these things [that I have told] you to do! (Concentrate on them/Do them [sincerely and] wholeheartedly) in order that everyone may see that you are improving [in how you do them].
16 Gogoa emoc eure buruäri eta doctrinari: perseuera eçac gauça hautan: ecen baldin haur badaguic, eure buruä duc saluaturen eta hiri behatzen çaizquianac.
Be careful that you [conduct] yourself well. By continuing to do that, you will save yourself. And if you continue [to teach the good] doctrine/teaching, the result of your teaching will be that [God] will save the people who listen to you.
