< 1 Timothy 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and Christ Jesus our hope;
我救主にて在す神及び我等が希望にて在すキリスト、イエズスの命によりてキリスト、イエズスの使徒たるパウロ、信仰上の實子チモテオに[書簡を贈る]。
2 unto Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
願はくは父にて在す神及び我主キリスト、イエズスより恩寵と慈悲と平安とを賜はらん事を。
3 As I exhorted thee to tarry at Ephesus, when I was going into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
第一項 教會の為に善く戰ふべし 第一編 教會の為に要求する所 我曾てマケドニアに往きし時汝に願ひし如く、汝はエフェゾに留り、或人々に命じて異なる事を教へざらしめ、
4 neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith; [so do I now].
且信仰に基ける神の道を立つるにはあらで却て様々の議論を起さする寓言と、究極なき系圖とに從事する事なからしめよ。
5 But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:
抑此命令の目的は、潔き心と善き良心と偽なき信仰とに出づる愛なり。
6 from which things some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talking;
然れども彼人々は、是等の事に外れて無益なる談話に移り、
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm.
自ら律法の教師たらんと欲して、其言ふ所をも断言する所をも覚らざるなり。
8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully,
然れども我等、律法は人正しく之を用ふれば善きものなることを知れり。
9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
律法の設けられしは義人の為に非ずして、不法人、反抗者、不敬者、罪人、無宗教者、卑俗者、父を殺す者、母を殺す者、殺人者、
10 for fornicators, for abusers of themselves with men, for menstealers, for liars, for false swearers, and if there be any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;
私通者、男色者、誘拐者、虚言者、偽證者、及び健全なる教に反する他の一切の事の為なりと知るべきなり、
11 according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
我に委られたる至福に在す神の光榮の福音に在るが如し。
12 I thank him that enabled me, [even] Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing me to [his] service;
我を堅固ならしめ給ひし我主キリスト、イエズスに感謝し奉る。其は我を聖役に任じて忠信なる者とし給ひたればなり。
13 though I was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: howbeit I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief;
即ち我曩には冒涜者、迫害者、侮辱者たりしかど、信ぜざる時知らずして為ししが故に、慈悲を蒙りて、
14 and the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
キリスト、イエズスに於る信仰及び愛と共に、我主の恩寵身に餘れり。
15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief:
眞實にして全く信ずべき談なる哉、キリスト、イエズスの世に來り給ひしは罪人を救はん為なる事。我は其罪人の第一なり。
16 howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
然るに慈悲を蒙りしはキリスト、イエズス其諸の堪忍を我に於て第一に顕し給ひ、永遠の生命を得んとて将に信ぜんとする人々に例を示し給はん為なり。 (aiōnios g166)
17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, [be] honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
願はくは萬世の王に在し不朽にして見え給はざる唯一の神に、世々尊崇と光榮と在らん事を、アメン。 (aiōn g165)
18 This charge I commit unto thee, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to thee, that by them thou mayest war the good warfare;
我子チモテオよ、汝に関はれる豫ての預言に從ひ、此命令を汝に寄す、之に應じて善き戰を戰ひ、
19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust from them made shipwreck concerning the faith:
信仰と善き良心とを保て。或人々は之を棄て、信仰に就きて破船せしが、
20 of whom is Hymenæus and Alexander; whom I delivered unto Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
其中にヒメネオとアレキサンデルと在りしを、冒涜せざる事を學ばしめんとて我之をサタンに付せり。
