1 Timothy 1

1 Timothy is put in mind of the charge which was given unto him by Paul at his going to Macedonia. 5 Of the right use and end of the Law. 11 Of Paul's calling to be an apostle, 20 and of Hymeneus and Alexander.

 1:1 ¶ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Savior, and Lord Jesus Christ, [who is] our hope;

 1:2 To Timothy, [my] own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

 1:3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

 1:4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith; [so do].

 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned:

 1:6 From which some having swerved, have turned aside to vain jangling;

 1:7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor concerning what they affirm.

 1:8 But we know that the law [is] good, if a man useth it lawfully;

 1:9 Knowing 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 man-slayers,

 1:10 For lewd persons, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men-stealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,

 1:11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

 1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

 1:13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did [it] ignorantly in unbelief:

 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

 1:15 This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

 1:16 However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for a pattern to them who should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

 1:17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, God the only wise, [be] honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

 1:18 This charge I commit to thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mayest war a good warfare;

 1:19 Holding faith and a good conscience; which some having put away, concerning faith have made shipwreck:

 1:20 Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
