1 Timothy 1

1Paul, an apostle of Yahusha Messiah by the commandment of Elohim our Saviour, and Lord Yahusha Messiah, our hope; 2Unto Timothy, own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from Elohim our Father and Yahusha Messiah our Lord. 3As I besought you to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that you mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, 4Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: . 5Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and a good conscience, and faith unfeigned: 6From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; 7Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. 8But we know that the law good, if a man use it lawfully; 9Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; 11According to the glorious gospel of the blessed Elohim, which was committed to my trust. 12And I thank Messiah Yahusha our Lord, who has enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; 13Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did ignorantly in unbelief. 14And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Messiah Yahusha. 15This a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Messiah Yahusha came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 16Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Yahusha Messiah might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. 17Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise Elohim, honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. 18This charge I commit unto you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on you, that you by them mightest war a good warfare; 19Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: 20Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
