1 Timothy 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Messiah Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Messiah Jesus our hope;

Pavel, apostol Jezusa Kristusa po zapovedi Boga, našega Odrešenika in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa, ki je naše upanje;

2 to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Messiah Jesus our Lord.

Timóteju, mojemu lastnemu sinu v veri: ›Milost, usmiljenje in mir od Boga, našega Očeta in Jezusa Kristusa, našega Gospoda.‹

3 As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain people not to teach a different doctrine,

Kakor sem te rotil, ko sem odšel v Makedonijo, da še ostaneš v Efezu, da bi lahko nekaterim naročil, da ne učijo nobenega drugega nauka,

4 neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith—

niti ne dajo pozornosti bajkam in neskončnim rodovnikom, kar prej podpira razprave, kakor [pa] bogaboječe izgrajevanje, ki je v veri. Tako delajte.

5 but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and unfeigned faith;

Torej namen zapovedi je ljubezen iz čistega srca in iz dobre vesti ter iz nehlinjene vere,

6 from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;

od katere so se nekateri oddaljili in obrnili stran k praznemu blebetanju;

7 desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.

želeč biti učitelji postave; [pa] niti ne razumejo kaj govorijo niti o čemer zatrjujejo.

8 But we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,

Toda mi vemo, da je postava dobra, če jo človek uporablja zakonito;

9 as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their father or mother, for murderers,

vedoč to, da postava ni narejena za pravičnega človeka, temveč za nepostavnega in neposlušnega, za brezbožnega in za grešnike, za nesvete in oskrunjene, za morilce očetov in morilce mater, za ubijalce,

10 for the sexually immoral, for men who have sexual relations with men, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and for whatever else is contrary to sound teaching;

za vlačugarje, za tiste, ki sebe omadežujejo z možmi, za ugrabitelje ljudi, za lažnivce, za krivoprisežnike in če je katerakoli druga stvar, ki je nasprotna zdravemu nauku;

11 according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

glede na slavni evangelij blagoslovljenega Boga, ki je bil zaupan mojemu varstvu.

12 And I thank him who enabled me, Messiah Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

In zahvaljujem se Kristusu Jezusu, našemu Gospodu, ki me je usposobil in me postavil v službo, kajti imel me je za zvestega;

13 although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

ki sem bil prej bogokletnik in preganjalec ter škodljivec. Toda dosegel sem usmiljenje, ker sem to počel nevedno, v nejeveri.

14 The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Messiah Jesus.

Milost našega Gospoda pa je bila silno bogata z vero in ljubeznijo, ki je v Kristusu Jezusu.

15 The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Messiah Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

To je zvest izrek in vreden popolnega sprejetja, da je Kristus Jezus prišel na svet, da reši grešnike; od katerih sem jaz vodilni.

16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus (the) Messiah might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)

Vendar sem zaradi tega razloga dosegel usmiljenje, da bi Jezus Kristus lahko vnaprej na meni pokazal vso potrpežljivost za vzor tem, ki naj bi odslej verovali vanj za večno življenje. (aiōnios g166)

17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)

Torej Kralju, večnemu, nesmrtnemu, nevidnemu, edinemu modremu Bogu, bodi čast in slava na veke vekov. Amen. (aiōn g165)

18 This instruction I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to you, that by them you may wage the good warfare;

To naročilo sem zaupal tebi, sin Timótej, glede na prerokbe, ki so izšle poprej o tebi, da boš po njih lahko bojeval dober boj;

19 holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;

in obdržiš vero in dobro vest; ki so jo nekateri zavrgli in glede vere storili brodolom.

20 of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.

Od katerih sta Himénaj in Aleksander; ki sem ju izročil Satanu, da bi se lahko naučila ne preklinjati.
