Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now the Spirit manifestly saith, that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils,
1Spiritus autem manifeste dicit, quia in novissimis temporibus discedent quidam a fide, attendentes spiritibus erroris, et doctrinis dæmoniorum,
2Speaking lies in hypocrisy, and having their conscience seared,
2in hypocrisi loquentium mendacium, et cauteriatam habentium suam conscientiam,
3Forbidding to marry, to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by the faithful, and by them that have known the truth.
3prohibentium nubere, abstinere a cibis, quod Deus creavit ad percipiendum cum gratiarum actione fidelibus, et iis qui cognoverunt veritatem.
4For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be rejected that is received with thanksgiving:
4Quia omnis creatura Dei bona est, et nihil rejiciendum quod cum gratiarum actione percipitur:
5For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
5sanctificatur enim per verbum Dei, et orationem.
6These things proposing to the brethren, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished up in the words of faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast attained unto.
6Hæc proponens fratribus, bonus eris minister Christi Jesu enutritus verbis fidei, et bonæ doctrinæ, quam assecutus es.
7But avoid foolish and old wives’ fables: and exercise thyself unto godliness.
7Ineptas autem, et aniles fabulas devita: exerce autem teipsum ad pietatem.
8For bodily exercise is profitable to little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
8Nam corporalis exercitatio, ad modicum utilis est: pietas autem ad omnia utilis est, promissionem habens vitæ, quæ nunc est, et futuræ.
9A faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
9Fidelis sermo, et omni acceptione dignus.
10For therefore we labor and are reviled, because we hope in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of the faithful.
10In hoc enim laboramus, et maledicimur, quia speramus in Deum vivum, qui est Salvator omnium hominum, maxime fidelium.
11These things command and teach.
11Præcipe hæc, et doce.
12Let no man despise thy youth: but be thou an example of the faithful in word, in conversation, in charity, in faith, in chastity.
12Nemo adolescentiam tuam contemnat: sed exemplum esto fidelium in verbo, in conversatione, in caritate, in fide, in castitate.
13Till I come, attend unto reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.
13Dum venio, attende lectioni, exhortationi, et doctrinæ.
14Neglect not the grace that is in thee, which was given thee by prophesy, with imposition of the hands of the priesthood.
14Noli negligere gratiam, quæ in te est, quæ data est tibi per prophetiam, cum impositione manuum presbyterii.
15Meditate upon these things, be wholly in these things: that thy profiting may be manifest to all.
15Hæc meditare, in his esto: ut profectus tuus manifestus sit omnibus.
16Take heed to thyself and to doctrine: be earnest in them. For in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that hear thee.
16Attende tibi, et doctrinæ: insta in illis. Hoc enim faciens, et teipsum salvum facies, et eos qui te audiunt.
