Berean Standard Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now the Spirit expressly states that in later times some will abandon the faith to follow deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons,
1Spiritus autem manifeste dicit, quia in novissimis temporibus discedent quidam a fide, attendentes spiritibus erroris, et doctrinis dæmoniorum,
2influenced by the hypocrisy of liars, whose consciences are seared with a hot iron.
2in hypocrisi loquentium mendacium, et cauteriatam habentium suam conscientiam,
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.
3prohibentium nubere, abstinere a cibis, quod Deus creavit ad percipiendum cum gratiarum actione fidelibus, et iis qui cognoverunt veritatem.
4For every creation of God is good, and nothing that is received with thanksgiving should be rejected,
4Quia omnis creatura Dei bona est, et nihil rejiciendum quod cum gratiarum actione percipitur:
5because it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
5sanctificatur enim per verbum Dei, et orationem.
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.
6Hæc proponens fratribus, bonus eris minister Christi Jesu enutritus verbis fidei, et bonæ doctrinæ, quam assecutus es.
7But reject irreverent, silly myths. Instead, train yourself for godliness.
7Ineptas autem, et aniles fabulas devita: exerce autem teipsum ad pietatem.
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.
8Nam corporalis exercitatio, ad modicum utilis est: pietas autem ad omnia utilis est, promissionem habens vitæ, quæ nunc est, et futuræ.
9This is a trustworthy saying, worthy of full acceptance.
9Fidelis sermo, et omni acceptione dignus.
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.
10In hoc enim laboramus, et maledicimur, quia speramus in Deum vivum, qui est Salvator omnium hominum, maxime fidelium.
11Command and teach these things.
11Præcipe hæc, et doce.
12Let no one despise your youth, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
12Nemo adolescentiam tuam contemnat: sed exemplum esto fidelium in verbo, in conversatione, in caritate, in fide, in castitate.
13Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, and to teaching.
13Dum venio, attende lectioni, exhortationi, et doctrinæ.
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.
14Noli negligere gratiam, quæ in te est, quæ data est tibi per prophetiam, cum impositione manuum presbyterii.
15Be diligent in these matters and absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all.
15Hæc meditare, in his esto: ut profectus tuus manifestus sit omnibus.
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.
16Attende tibi, et doctrinæ: insta in illis. Hoc enim faciens, et teipsum salvum facies, et eos qui te audiunt.
