1 Timothy 6

1 Let as many as are slaves under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.

οσοι εισιν υπο ζυγον δουλοι τους ιδιους δεσποτας πασης τιμης αξιους ηγεισθωσαν ινα μη το ονομα του θεου και η διδασκαλια βλασφημηται

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.

οι δε πιστους εχοντες δεσποτας μη καταφρονειτωσαν οτι αδελφοι εισιν αλλα μαλλον δουλευετωσαν οτι πιστοι εισιν και αγαπητοι οι της ευεργεσιας αντιλαμβανομενοι ταυτα διδασκε και παρακαλει

3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine, and does not consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,

ει τις ετεροδιδασκαλει και μη προσερχεται υγιαινουσιν λογοις τοις του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου και τη κατ ευσεβειαν διδασκαλια

4 he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,

τετυφωται μηδεν επισταμενος αλλα νοσων περι ζητησεις και λογομαχιας εξ ων γινεται φθονος ερις βλασφημιαι υπονοιαι πονηραι

5 constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain.

παραδιατριβαι διεφθαρμενων ανθρωπων τον νουν και απεστερημενων της αληθειας νομιζοντων πορισμον ειναι την ευσεβειαν αφιστασο απο των τοιουτων

6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

εστιν δε πορισμος μεγας η ευσεβεια μετα αυταρκειας

7 For we brought nothing into the world, so neither can we carry anything out.

ουδεν γαρ εισηνεγκαμεν εις τον κοσμον δηλον οτι ουδε εξενεγκειν τι δυναμεθα

8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.

εχοντες δε διατροφας και σκεπασματα τουτοις αρκεσθησομεθα

9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as plunge people into ruin and destruction.

οι δε βουλομενοι πλουτειν εμπιπτουσιν εις πειρασμον και παγιδα και επιθυμιας πολλας ανοητους και βλαβερας αιτινες βυθιζουσιν τους ανθρωπους εις ολεθρον και απωλειαν

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.

ριζα γαρ παντων των κακων εστιν η φιλαργυρια ης τινες ορεγομενοι απεπλανηθησαν απο της πιστεως και εαυτους περιεπειραν οδυναις πολλαις

11 But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.

συ δε ω ανθρωπε του θεου ταυτα φευγε διωκε δε δικαιοσυνην ευσεβειαν πιστιν αγαπην υπομονην πραοτητα

12 Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold of the everlasting life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)

αγωνιζου τον καλον αγωνα της πιστεως επιλαβου της αιωνιου ζωης εις ην και εκληθης και ωμολογησας την καλην ομολογιαν ενωπιον πολλων μαρτυρων (aiōnios g166)

13 I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Messiah Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,

παραγγελλω σοι ενωπιον του θεου του ζωοποιουντος τα παντα και χριστου ιησου του μαρτυρησαντος επι ποντιου πιλατου την καλην ομολογιαν

14 that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah;

τηρησαι σε την εντολην ασπιλον ανεπιληπτον μεχρι της επιφανειας του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου

15 which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

ην καιροις ιδιοις δειξει ο μακαριος και μονος δυναστης ο βασιλευς των βασιλευοντων και κυριος των κυριευοντων

16 who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; whom no human has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen. (aiōnios g166)

ο μονος εχων αθανασιαν φως οικων απροσιτον ον ειδεν ουδεις ανθρωπων ουδε ιδειν δυναται ω τιμη και κρατος αιωνιον αμην (aiōnios g166)

17 Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; (aiōn g165)

τοις πλουσιοις εν τω νυν αιωνι παραγγελλε μη υψηλοφρονειν μηδε ηλπικεναι επι πλουτου αδηλοτητι αλλ εν τω θεω τω ζωντι τω παρεχοντι ημιν πλουσιως παντα εις απολαυσιν (aiōn g165)

18 that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

αγαθοεργειν πλουτειν εν εργοις καλοις ευμεταδοτους ειναι κοινωνικους

19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of that which is truly life.

αποθησαυριζοντας εαυτοις θεμελιον καλον εις το μελλον ινα επιλαβωνται της αιωνιου ζωης

20 Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of the knowledge which is falsely so called;

ω τιμοθεε την παρακαταθηκην φυλαξον εκτρεπομενος τας βεβηλους κενοφωνιας και αντιθεσεις της ψευδωνυμου γνωσεως

21 which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you.

ην τινες επαγγελλομενοι περι την πιστιν ηστοχησαν η χαρις μετα σου αμην [ προς τιμοθεον πρωτη εγραφη απο λαοδικειας ητις εστιν μητροπολις φρυγιας της πακατιανης]
