提摩太前书 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1圣灵明说，在后来的时候，必有人离弃真道，听从那引诱人的 邪 灵和鬼魔的道理。
1Now the Spirit expressly states that in later times some will abandon the faith to follow deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons,
2这是因为说谎之人的假冒；这等人的良心如同被热铁烙惯了一般。
2influenced by the hypocrisy of liars, whose consciences are seared with a hot iron.
3他们禁止嫁娶，又禁戒食物，就是 神所造、叫那信而明白真道的人感谢着领受的。
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.
4凡 神所造的物都是好的，若感谢着领受，就没有一样可弃的，
4For every creation of God is good, and nothing that is received with thanksgiving should be rejected,
5都因 神的道和人的祈求成为圣洁了。
5because it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
6你若将这些事提醒弟兄们，便是基督耶稣的好执事，在真道的话语和你向来所服从的善道上得了教育。
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.
7只是要弃绝那世俗的言语和老妇荒谬的话，在敬虔上操练自己。
7But reject irreverent, silly myths. Instead, train yourself for godliness.
8「操练身体，益处还少；惟独敬虔，凡事都有益处，因有今生和来生的应许。」
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.
9这话是可信的，是十分可佩服的。
9This is a trustworthy saying, worthy of full acceptance.
10我们劳苦努力，正是为此，因我们的指望在乎永生的 神；他是万人的救主，更是信徒的救主。
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.
11这些事，你要吩咐人，也要教导人。
11Command and teach these things.
12不可叫人小看你年轻，总要在言语、行为、爱心、信心、清洁上，都作信徒的榜样。
12Let no one despise your youth, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
13你要以宣读、劝勉、教导为念，直等到我来。
13Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, and to teaching.
14你不要轻忽所得的恩赐，就是从前借着预言、在众长老按手的时候赐给你的。
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.
15这些事你要殷勤去做，并要在此专心，使众人看出你的长进来。
15Be diligent in these matters and absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all.
16你要谨慎自己和自己的教训，要在这些事上恒心；因为这样行，又能救自己，又能救听你的人。
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.
