Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1All who are under the yoke of slavery should regard their masters as fully worthy of honor, so that God’s name and our teaching will not be discredited.
1οσοι εισιν υπο ζυγον δουλοι τουσ ιδιουσ δεσποτασ πασησ τιμησ αξιουσ ηγεισθωσαν ινα μη το ονομα του θεου και η διδασκαλια βλασφημηται
2Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.
2οι δε πιστουσ εχοντεσ δεσποτασ μη καταφρονειτωσαν οτι αδελφοι εισιν αλλα μαλλον δουλευετωσαν οτι πιστοι εισιν και αγαπητοι οι τησ ευεργεσιασ αντιλαμβανομενοι ταυτα διδασκε και παρακαλει
3If anyone teaches another doctrine and disagrees with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and with godly teaching,
3ει τισ ετεροδιδασκαλει και μη προσερχεται υγιαινουσιν λογοισ τοισ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου και τη κατ ευσεβειαν διδασκαλια
4he is conceited and understands nothing. Instead, he has an unhealthy interest in controversies and semantics, out of which come envy, strife, abusive talk, evil suspicions,
4τετυφωται μηδεν επισταμενοσ αλλα νοσων περι ζητησεισ και λογομαχιασ εξ ων γινεται φθονοσ ερισ βλασφημιαι υπονοιαι πονηραι
5and constant friction between men of depraved mind who are devoid of the truth. These men regard godliness as a means of gain.
5διαπαρατριβαι διεφθαρμενων ανθρωπων τον νουν και απεστερημενων τησ αληθειασ νομιζοντων πορισμον ειναι την ευσεβειαν αφιστασο απο των τοιουτων
6Of course, godliness with contentment is great gain.
6εστιν δε πορισμοσ μεγασ η ευσεβεια μετα αυταρκειασ
7For we brought nothing into the world, so we cannot carry anything out of it.
7ουδεν γαρ εισηνεγκαμεν εισ τον κοσμον δηλον οτι ουδε εξενεγκειν τι δυναμεθα
8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.
8εχοντεσ δε διατροφασ και σκεπασματα τουτοισ αρκεσθησομεθα
9Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction.
9οι δε βουλομενοι πλουτειν εμπιπτουσιν εισ πειρασμον και παγιδα και επιθυμιασ πολλασ ανοητουσ και βλαβερασ αιτινεσ βυθιζουσιν τουσ ανθρωπουσ εισ ολεθρον και απωλειαν
10For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.
10ριζα γαρ παντων των κακων εστιν η φιλαργυρια ησ τινεσ ορεγομενοι απεπλανηθησαν απο τησ πιστεωσ και εαυτουσ περιεπειραν οδυναισ πολλαισ
11But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.
11συ δε ω ανθρωπε του θεου ταυτα φευγε διωκε δε δικαιοσυνην ευσεβειαν πιστιν αγαπην υπομονην πραοτητα
12Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession before many witnesses.
12αγωνιζου τον καλον αγωνα τησ πιστεωσ επιλαβου τησ αιωνιου ζωησ εισ ην εκληθησ και ωμολογησασ την καλην ομολογιαν ενωπιον πολλων μαρτυρων
13I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who made the good confession in His testimony before Pontius Pilate:
13παραγγελλω σοι ενωπιον του θεου του ζωοποιουντοσ τα παντα και χριστου ιησου του μαρτυρησαντοσ επι ποντιου πιλατου την καλην ομολογιαν
14Keep this commandment without stain or reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ,
14τηρησαι σε την εντολην ασπιλον ανεπιληπτον μεχρι τησ επιφανειασ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
15which the blessed and only Sovereign One—the King of kings and Lord of lords—will bring about in His own time.
15ην καιροισ ιδιοισ δειξει ο μακαριοσ και μονοσ δυναστησ ο βασιλευσ των βασιλευοντων και κυριοσ των κυριευοντων
16He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen Him, nor can anyone see Him. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
16ο μονοσ εχων αθανασιαν φωσ οικων απροσιτον ον ειδεν ουδεισ ανθρωπων ουδε ιδειν δυναται ω τιμη και κρατοσ αιωνιον αμην
17Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be conceited and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of wealth, but in God, who richly provides all things for us to enjoy.
17τοισ πλουσιοισ εν τω νυν αιωνι παραγγελλε μη υψηλοφρονειν μηδε ηλπικεναι επι πλουτου αδηλοτητι αλλ εν τω θεω τω ζωντι τω παρεχοντι ημιν παντα πλουσιωσ εισ απολαυσιν
18Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share,
18αγαθοεργειν πλουτειν εν εργοισ καλοισ ευμεταδοτουσ ειναι κοινωνικουσ
19treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.
19αποθησαυριζοντασ εαυτοισ θεμελιον καλον εισ το μελλον ινα επιλαβωνται τησ αιωνιου ζωησ
20O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid irreverent, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of so-called “knowledge,”
20ω τιμοθεε την παραθηκην φυλαξον εκτρεπομενοσ τασ βεβηλουσ κενοφωνιασ και αντιθεσεισ τησ ψευδωνυμου γνωσεωσ
21which some have professed and thus swerved away from the faith. Grace be with you all.
21ην τινεσ επαγγελλομενοι περι την πιστιν ηστοχησαν η χαρισ μετα σου αμην
