1 Timoteju 1
1 Pavel apostelj Jezusa Kristusa, po povelji Boga rešitelja in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa, upanja našega,
Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope;
2 Timoteju, pravemu otroku v veri: milost, usmiljenje, mir od Boga očeta našega in Kristusa Jezusa, našega Gospoda!
to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 Kakor sem te prosil, da ostani v Efezu, potujoč v Macedonijo, da zapoveš nekim, naj ne učé drugače,
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,
4 In naj se ne ubijajo z basnimi in rodopisi brez konca, kateri napravljajo bolj prepire nego izpodbujevanje Božje v veri.
neither to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause speculation, rather than God's stewardship, which is in faith—
5 Namen pa zapovedi je ljubezen iz srca čistega in dobre vesti in vere nehinavske;
but the goal of this command is love, out of a pure heart and a good conscience and unfeigned faith;
6 Kar so nekateri izgrešivši obrnili se v prazno besedovanje,
from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned aside to vain talking;
7 Hoteč biti postavouki, dasi ne umejo, ne kaj govoré, ne kaj trdijo.
desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor about what they strongly affirm.
8 Vemo pa, da je postava dobra, če jo kdo postavno rabi,
But we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
9 Vedóč to, da za pravičnega ni postavljena postava, nego za nepostavne in uporne, brezbožne in grešnike, nesvete in posvetne, očeta in matere ubijalce, ljudomorce,
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,
10 Kurbirje, moželežnike, ljudokradeže, lažnike, krivoprisežnike, in kar druzega nasprotuje zdravemu uku,
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;
11 Po evangelji slave Boga blaženega, kateri se je meni izročil.
according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
12 In hvaležen sem njemu, ki me krepčá, Kristusu Jezusu Gospodu našemu, da me je za zvestega imel in postavil me v službo,
And I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;
13 Ki sem bil prej preklinjalec in preganjalec in silovitnik; ali usmiljenje sem zadobil, ker sem neveden delal v neveri;
although I was before a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
14 Preobila pa je bila milost Gospoda našega z vero in ljubeznijo v Kristusu Jezusu.
The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15 Resnična beseda in vsega sprejema vredna, da je Kristus Jezus prišel na svet, grešnike rešit, katerih prvi sem jaz.
The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
16 Ali za to sem usmiljenje zadobil, da bi v meni prvem Kristus pokazal vso svojo potrpežljivost za zgled njim, ki bodo verovali vanj za večno življenje. (aiōnios g166)
However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Kralju pa svetov, neminljivemu, nevidnemu, samemu modremu Bogu, čast in slava na vekov veke! Amen. (aiōn g165)
Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
18 To zapoved ti naročam, Timotej otrok, po predhodnjih prerokovanjih o tebi, da biješ v njih lepi boj,
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;
19 Imajoč vero in dobro vest, katero so nekateri od sebe pahnili ter ponesrečili se v veri;
holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith;
20 Med katerimi je Himenej in Aleksander, katera sem izročil satanu, da se učita ne preklinjati.
of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered to Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
