التحية | |
| 1 بُولُسُ، رَسُولُ يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، بِحَسَبِ أَمْرِ اللهِ مُخَلِّصِنَا، وَرَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، رَجَائِنَا. | 1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope; |
|
| 2 إِلَى تِيمُوثَاوُسَ، الابْنِ الصَّرِيحِ فِي الإِيمَانِ: نِعْمَةٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ وَسَلاَمٌ مِنَ اللهِ أَبِينَا وَالْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ رَبِّنَا. | 2 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord. |

خطر التعاليم الباطلة | |
| 3 كَمَا طَلَبْتُ إِلَيْكَ أَنْ تَمْكُثَ فِي أَفَسُسَ، إِذْ كُنْتُ أَنَا ذَاهِبًا إِلَى مَكِدُونِيَّةَ، لِكَيْ تُوصِيَ قَوْمًا أَنْ لاَ يُعَلِّمُوا تَعْلِيمًا آخَرَ، | 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, |
|
| 4 وَلاَ يُصْغُوا إِلَى خُرَافَاتٍ وَأَنْسَابٍ لاَ حَدَّ لَهَا، تُسَبِّبُ مُبَاحَثَاتٍ دُونَ بُنْيَانِ اللهِ الَّذِي فِي الإِيمَانِ. | 4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. |
|
| 5 وَأَمَّا غَايَةُ الْوَصِيَّةِ فَهِيَ الْمَحَبَّةُ مِنْ قَلْبٍ طَاهِرٍ، وَضَمِيرٍ صَالِحٍ، وَإِيمَانٍ بِلاَ رِيَاءٍ. | 5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned: |
|
| 6 الأُمُورُ الَّتِي إِذْ زَاغَ قَوْمٌ عَنْهَا، انْحَرَفُوا إِلَى كَلاَمٍ بَاطِل. | 6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling; |
|
| 7 يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا مُعَلِّمِي النَّامُوسِ، وَهُمْ لاَ يَفْهَمُونَ مَا يَقُولُونَ، وَلاَ مَا يُقَرِّرُونَهُ. | 7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. |
|
| 8 وَلكِنَّنَا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ النَّامُوسَ صَالِحٌ، إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَسْتَعْمِلُهُ نَامُوسِيًّا. | 8 But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; |
|
| 9 عَالِمًا هذَا: أَنَّ النَّامُوسَ لَمْ يُوضَعْ لِلْبَارِّ، بَلْ لِلأَثَمَةِ وَالْمُتَمَرِّدِينَ، لِلْفُجَّارِ وَالْخُطَاةِ، لِلدَّنِسِينَ وَالْمُسْتَبِيحِينَ، لِقَاتِلِي الآبَاءِ وَقَاتِلِي الأُمَّهَاتِ، لِقَاتِلِي النَّاسِ، | 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 manslayers, |
|
10 لِلزُّنَاةِ، لِمُضَاجِعِي الذُّكُورِ، لِسَارِقِي النَّاسِ، لِلْكَذَّابِينَ، لِلْحَانِثِينَ، وَإِنْ كَانَ شَيْءٌ آخَرُ يُقَاوِمُ التَّعْلِيمَ الصَّحِيحَ،  | 10 For 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; |
|
| 11 حَسَبَ إِنْجِيلِ مَجْدِ اللهِ الْمُبَارَكِ الَّذِي اؤْتُمِنْتُ أَنَا عَلَيْهِ. | 11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. |
|
الشكر لله على رحمته | |
| 12 وَأَنَا أَشْكُرُ الْمَسِيحَ يَسُوعَ رَبَّنَا الَّذِي قَوَّانِي، أَنَّهُ حَسِبَنِي أَمِينًا، إِذْ جَعَلَنِي لِلْخِدْمَةِ، | 12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; |
|
| 13 أَنَا الَّذِي كُنْتُ قَبْلاً مُجَدِّفًا وَمُضْطَهِدًا وَمُفْتَرِيًا. وَلكِنَّنِي رُحِمْتُ، لأَنِّي فَعَلْتُ بِجَهْل فِي عَدَمِ إِيمَانٍ. | 13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. |
|
| 14 وَتَفَاضَلَتْ نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا جِدًّا مَعَ الإِيمَانِ وَالْمَحَبَّةِ الَّتِي فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ. | 14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. |
|
| 15 صَادِقَةٌ هِيَ الْكَلِمَةُ وَمُسْتَحِقَّةٌ كُلَّ قُبُول: أَنَّ الْمَسِيحَ يَسُوعَ جَاءَ إِلَى الْعَالَمِ لِيُخَلِّصَ الْخُطَاةَ الَّذِينَ أَوَّلُهُمْ أَنَا. | 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. |
|
| 16 لكِنَّنِي لِهذَا رُحِمْتُ: لِيُظْهِرَ يَسُوعُ الْمَسِيحُ فِيَّ أَنَا أَوَّلاً كُلَّ أَنَاةٍ، مِثَالاً لِلْعَتِيدِينَ أَنْ يُؤْمِنُوا بِهِ لِلْحَيَاةِ الأَبَدِيَّةِ. | 16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. |
|
| 17 وَمَلِكُ الدُّهُورِ الَّذِي لاَ يَفْنَى وَلاَ يُرَى، الإِلهُ الْحَكِيمُ وَحْدَهُ، لَهُ الْكَرَامَةُ وَالْمَجْدُ إِلَى دَهْرِ الدُّهُورِ. آمِينَ. | 17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. |
|
| 18 هذِهِ الْوَصِيَّةُ أَيُّهَا الابْنُ تِيمُوثَاوُسُ أَسْتَوْدِعُكَ إِيَّاهَا حَسَبَ النُّبُوَّاتِ الَّتِي سَبَقَتْ عَلَيْكَ، لِكَيْ تُحَارِبَ فِيهَا الْمُحَارَبَةَ الْحَسَنَةَ، | 18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; |
|
| 19 وَلَكَ إِيمَانٌ وَضَمِيرٌ صَالِحٌ، الَّذِي إِذْ رَفَضَهُ قَوْمٌ، انْكَسَرَتْ بِهِمِ السَّفِينَةُ مِنْ جِهَةِ الإِيمَانِ أَيْضًا، | 19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck: |
|
| 20 الَّذِينَ مِنْهُمْ هِيمِينَايُسُ وَالإِسْكَنْدَرُ، اللَّذَانِ أَسْلَمْتُهُمَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ لِكَيْ يُؤَدَّبَا حَتَّى لاَ يُجَدِّفَا. | 20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme. |
