1 Timothy 4
1 Now the Spirit speaketh euidently, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, and shall giue heede vnto spirits of errour, and doctrines of deuils,
Spiritus autem manifeste dicit, quia in novissimis temporibus discedent quidam a fide, attendentes spiritibus erroris, et doctrinis dæmoniorum,
2 Which speake lies through hypocrisie, and haue their cosciences burned with an hote yron,
in hypocrisi loquentium mendacium, et cauteriatam habentium suam conscientiam,
3 Forbidding to marrie, and commanding to abstaine from meates which God hath created to be receiued with giuing thankes of them which beleeue and knowe the trueth.
prohibentium nubere, abstinere a cibis, quod Deus creavit ad percipiendum cum gratiarum actione fidelibus, et iis, qui cognoverunt veritatem.
4 For euery creature of God is good, and nothing ought to be refused, if it be receiued with thankesgiuing.
Quia omnis creatura Dei bona est, et nihil reiiciendum quod cum gratiarum actione percipitur:
5 For it is sanctified by the worde of God, and prayer.
sanctificatur enim per verbum Dei, et orationem.
6 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Iesus Christ, which hast bene nourished vp in the wordes of faith, and of good doctrine, which thou hast continually followed.
Hæc proponens fratribus, bonus eris minister Christi Iesu enutritus verbis fidei, et bonæ doctrinæ, quam assecutus es.
7 But cast away prophane, and olde wiues fables, and exercise thy selfe vnto godlinesse.
Ineptas autem, et aniles fabulas devita: exerce autem teipsum ad pietatem.
8 For bodily exercise profiteth litle: but godlinesse is profitable vnto all things, which hath the promise of the life present, and of that that is to come.
Nam corporalis exercitatio, ad modicum utilis est: pietas autem ad omnia utilis est, promissionem habens vitæ, quæ nunc est, et futuræ.
9 This is a true saying, and by all meanes worthie to be receiued.
Fidelis sermo, et omni acceptione dignus.
10 For therefore we labour and are rebuked, because we trust in the liuing God, which is the Sauiour of all men, specially of those that beleeue.
In hoc enim laboramus, et maledicimur, quia speramus in Deum vivum, qui est Salvator omnium hominum, maxime fidelium.
11 These things warne and teache.
Præcipe hæc, et doce.
12 Let no man despise thy youth, but be vnto them that beleeue, an ensample, in worde, in conuersation, in loue, in spirit, in faith, and in purenesse.
Nemo adolescentiam tuam contemnat: sed exemplum esto fidelium in verbo, in conversatione, in charitate, in fide, in castitate.
13 Till I come, giue attendance to reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.
Dum venio, attende lectioni, exhortationi, et doctrinæ.
14 Despise not the gift that is in thee, which was giuen thee by prophecie with the laying on of the hands of the companie of the Eldership.
Noli negligere gratiam, quæ in te est, quæ data est tibi per prophetiam, cum impositione manuum presbyterii.
15 These things exercise, and giue thy selfe vnto them, that it may be seene howe thou profitest among all men.
Hæc meditare, in his esto: ut profectus tuus manifestus sit omnibus.
16 Take heede vnto thy selfe, and vnto learning: continue therein: for in doing this thou shalt both saue thy selfe, and them that heare thee.
Attende tibi, et doctrinæ: insta in illis. Hoc enim faciens, et teipsum salvum facies, et eos qui te audiunt.
