Sie Timothy 1

1 Ma sel Paul, sie mwet sap lun Christ Jesus fal nu ke sap lun God Mwet Lango lasr, ac Christ Jesus, su mwe finsrak lasr —

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,

2 Nu sel Timothy, tulik pwaye nutik in lulalfongi: Lungkulang, pakoten ac misla nu sum sin God Papa, ac Christ Jesus Leum lasr.

to Timotheus — genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord,

3 Nga lungse kom in mutana Ephesus, oana ke nga tuh kwafe sum ke nga fahsr in som nu Macedonia. Kutu sin mwet we ah elos luti ke mwe luti sutuu, ac kom enenu in sap elos in tui.

according as I did exhort thee to remain in Ephesus — I going on to Macedonia — that thou mightest charge certain not to teach any other thing,

4 Fahk nu selos elos in tia sisla pacl lalos ke sramsram matu lusrongten lalos, oayapa ke tak sou loeloes ke fwil matu lalos su mwe na purakak akukuin, ac tia ma ac kasru mwet nu ke orekma lun God, su ma ke lulalfongi mukena.

nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, that cause questions rather than the building up of God that is in faith: —

5 Sripen sap ku se inge ma in mokleak lungse, su tuku ke inse nasnas ac elah wo ac lulalfongi pwaye.

And the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned,

6 Kutu mwet uh forla liki ma inge ac kuhfla nu ke kaskas lusrongten.

from which certain, having swerved, did turn aside to vain discourse,

7 Elos lungse tuh elos in mwet luti ke ma sap lun God, a elos tia kalem ke ma elos sifacna fahk, ku ke kalmen ma elos lulalfongi yohk kac.

willing to be teachers of law, not understanding either the things they say, nor concerning what they asseverate,

8 Kut etu lah Ma Sap uh wo, fin orekmakinyuk oana ma oakwuk nu kac.

and we have known that the law [is] good, if any one may use it lawfully;

9 Kut enenu in esam lah ma sap uh tia orekla nu sin mwet suwoswos, a ma nu sin mwet su kunaus ma sap, mwet orekma koluk, mwet su nikin God, mwet koluk, mwet tia etu alu, mwet pilesru ma lun ngun, mwet su uniya papa ac nina, mwet akmas,

having known this, that for a righteous man law is not set, but for lawless and insubordinate persons, ungodly and sinners, impious and profane, parricides and matricides, men-slayers,

10 mwet kosro, mukul ma oru ouiya sufal nu sin mukul, mwet su kukakin mwet tuh elos in mwet kohs, mwet kaskas kikiap ac mwet orek loh kikiap, ac kutepacna mwet su oru ma in lain mwe luti pwaye.

whoremongers, sodomites, men-stealers, liars, perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that to sound doctrine is adverse,

11 Mwe luti inge oasr ke Wosasu se su ituku nu sik in fahkak, aok Pweng Wolana sin God su fal in kaksakinyuk.

according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.

12 Nga sang kulo nu sin Christ Jesus Leum lasr, su akkeyeyu ke orekma luk. Nga sang kulo nu sel tuh el oekyu mu nga fal ac el srisrngiyuwi in kulansap nu sel,

And I give thanks to him who enabled me — Christ Jesus our Lord — that he did reckon me stedfast, having put [me] to the ministration,

13 nga finne sie mwet su fahk kas koluk kacl in pacl meet, ac sie su akkolukye ac kalyei orekma lal. Tusruktu God El pakoten nu sik mweyen nga oru ma inge in ninikin, ac in selulalfongi luk.

who before was speaking evil, and persecuting, and insulting, but I found kindness, because, being ignorant, I did [it] in unbelief,

14 Ac Leum lasr el akkalemye lungkulang yoklana lal nu sik, ac ase nu sik lulalfongi ac lungse, su ma lasr ke kut kupasryang yurin Christ Jesus.

and exceedingly abound did the grace of our Lord, with faith and love that [is] in Christ Jesus:

15 Kas pwaye se pa inge, su fal in porongeyuk ac lulalfongiyuk: tuh Christ Jesus el tuku nu faclu in molela mwet koluk. Ac nga koluk yohk lukelos nukewa,

stedfast [is] the word, and of all acceptation worthy, that Christ Jesus came to the world to save sinners — first of whom I am;

16 tusruktu pa inge sripa se God El pakoten nu sik, in akkalemye lupan muteng lun Christ Jesus nu sik, su koluk liki mwet koluk nukewa, tuh in mwe srikasrak nu selos su ac mau lulalfongi in el ke pacl tok, ac eis moul ma pahtpat. (aiōnios g166)

but because of this I found kindness, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all long-suffering, for a pattern of those about to believe on him to life age-during: (aiōnios g166)

17 Inge, nu sin Tokosra se su moul ma pahtpat, su ac tia misa ac su koflana in liyeyuk, God sefanna — in kaksakinyuk ac akfulatyeyuk El ma pahtpat ac ma pahtpat! Amen. (aiōn g165)

and to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, [is] honour and glory — to the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)

18 Timothy, ma nutik, nga filiya kas in kai inge nu sum, su fal nu ke kas in palu ma fwack keim in pacl meet ah. Orekmakin kas inge in oana kufwen mwe mweun tuh kom fah mweun wo,

This charge I commit to thee, child Timotheus, according to the prophesies that went before upon thee, that thou mayest war in them the good warfare,

19 ac sruokya lulalfongi lom oayapa elah wo in kom. Kutu mwet uh tia taran elah wo in elos, pwanang lulalfongi lalos kunausyukla, oana soko oak ma musalla in meoa uh.

having faith and a good conscience, which certain having thrust away, concerning the faith did make shipwreck,

20 Ac luo selos pa Hymenaeus ac Alexander, su nga kaeltal ke nga eisaltalang nu ke ku lun Satan; ac ma inge ac lotelos in tia sifil kaskas enum lain God.

of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I did deliver to the Adversary, that they might be instructed not to speak evil.
