Berean Standard Bible
Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Now the Spirit expressly states that in later times some will abandon the faith to follow deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons,
1το δε πνευμα ρητωσ λεγει οτι εν υστεροισ καιροισ αποστησονται τινεσ τησ πιστεωσ προσεχοντεσ πνευμασιν πλανοισ και διδασκαλιαισ δαιμονιων
2influenced by the hypocrisy of liars, whose consciences are seared with a hot iron.
2εν υποκρισει ψευδολογων κεκαυτηριασμενων την ιδιαν συνειδησιν
3They will prohibit marriage and require abstinence from certain foods that God has created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
3κωλυοντων γαμειν απεχεσθαι βρωματων α ο θεοσ εκτισεν εισ μεταληψιν μετα ευχαριστιασ τοισ πιστοισ και επεγνωκοσιν την αληθειαν
4For every creation of God is good, and nothing that is received with thanksgiving should be rejected,
4οτι παν κτισμα θεου καλον και ουδεν αποβλητον μετα ευχαριστιασ λαμβανομενον
5because it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
5αγιαζεται γαρ δια λογου θεου και εντευξεωσ
6By pointing out these things to the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished by the words of faith and sound instruction that you have followed.
6ταυτα υποτιθεμενοσ τοισ αδελφοισ καλοσ εση διακονοσ ιησου χριστου εντρεφομενοσ τοισ λογοισ τησ πιστεωσ και τησ καλησ διδασκαλιασ η παρηκολουθηκασ
7But reject irreverent, silly myths. Instead, train yourself for godliness.
7τουσ δε βεβηλουσ και γραωδεισ μυθουσ παραιτου γυμναζε δε σεαυτον προσ ευσεβειαν
8For physical exercise is of limited value, but godliness is valuable in every way, holding promise for the present life and for the one to come.
8η γαρ σωματικη γυμνασια προσ ολιγον εστιν ωφελιμοσ η δε ευσεβεια προσ παντα ωφελιμοσ εστιν επαγγελιαν εχουσα ζωησ τησ νυν και τησ μελλουσησ
9This is a trustworthy saying, worthy of full acceptance.
9πιστοσ ο λογοσ και πασησ αποδοχησ αξιοσ
10To this end we labor and strive, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of everyone, and especially of those who believe.
10εισ τουτο γαρ και κοπιωμεν και ονειδιζομεθα οτι ηλπικαμεν επι θεω ζωντι οσ εστιν σωτηρ παντων ανθρωπων μαλιστα πιστων
11Command and teach these things.
11παραγγελλε ταυτα και διδασκε
12Let no one despise your youth, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
12μηδεισ σου τησ νεοτητοσ καταφρονειτω αλλα τυποσ γινου των πιστων εν λογω εν αναστροφη εν αγαπη εν πνευματι εν πιστει εν αγνεια
13Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, and to teaching.
13εωσ ερχομαι προσεχε τη αναγνωσει τη παρακλησει τη διδασκαλια
14Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given you through the prophecy spoken over you at the laying on of the hands of the elders.
14μη αμελει του εν σοι χαρισματοσ ο εδοθη σοι δια προφητειασ μετα επιθεσεωσ των χειρων του πρεσβυτεριου
15Be diligent in these matters and absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all.
15ταυτα μελετα εν τουτοισ ισθι ινα σου η προκοπη φανερα η εν πασιν
16Pay close attention to your life and to your teaching. Persevere in these things, for by so doing you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
16επεχε σεαυτω και τη διδασκαλια επιμενε αυτοισ τουτο γαρ ποιων και σεαυτον σωσεισ και τουσ ακουοντασ σου
