Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,
1παυλοσ αποστολοσ ιησου χριστου κατ επιταγην θεου σωτηροσ ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου τησ ελπιδοσ ημων
2to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
2τιμοθεω γνησιω τεκνω εν πιστει χαρισ ελεοσ ειρηνη απο θεου πατροσ ημων και χριστου ιησου του κυριου ημων
3As I urged you when I was going into Macedonia, stay at Ephesus that you might command certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
3καθωσ παρεκαλεσα σε προσμειναι εν εφεσω πορευομενοσ εισ μακεδονιαν ινα παραγγειλησ τισιν μη ετεροδιδασκαλειν
4and not to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than God’s stewardship, which is in faith.
4μηδε προσεχειν μυθοισ και γενεαλογιαισ απεραντοισ αιτινεσ ζητησεισ παρεχουσιν μαλλον η οικονομιαν θεου την εν πιστει
5But the goal of this command is love from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith,
5το δε τελοσ τησ παραγγελιασ εστιν αγαπη εκ καθαρασ καρδιασ και συνειδησεωσ αγαθησ και πιστεωσ ανυποκριτου
6from which things some, having missed the mark, have turned away to vain talking,
6ων τινεσ αστοχησαντεσ εξετραπησαν εισ ματαιολογιαν
7desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say nor about what they strongly affirm.
7θελοντεσ ειναι νομοδιδασκαλοι μη νοουντεσ μητε α λεγουσιν μητε περι τινων διαβεβαιουνται
8But we know that the law is good if a person uses it lawfully,
8οιδαμεν δε οτι καλοσ ο νομοσ εαν τισ αυτω νομιμωσ χρηται
9as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
9ειδωσ τουτο οτι δικαιω νομοσ ου κειται ανομοισ δε και ανυποτακτοισ ασεβεσιν και αμαρτωλοισ ανοσιοισ και βεβηλοισ πατρολωαισ και μητρολωαισ ανδροφονοισ
10for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and for any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine,
10πορνοισ αρσενοκοιταισ ανδραποδισταισ ψευσταισ επιορκοισ και ει τι ετερον τη υγιαινουση διδασκαλια αντικειται
11according to the Good News of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
11κατα το ευαγγελιον τησ δοξησ του μακαριου θεου ο επιστευθην εγω
12I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service,
12και χαριν εχω τω ενδυναμωσαντι με χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων οτι πιστον με ηγησατο θεμενοσ εισ διακονιαν
13although I used to be a blasphemer, a persecutor, and insolent. However, I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
13τον προτερον οντα βλασφημον και διωκτην και υβριστην αλλα ηλεηθην οτι αγνοων εποιησα εν απιστια
14The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14υπερεπλεονασεν δε η χαρισ του κυριου ημων μετα πιστεωσ και αγαπησ τησ εν χριστω ιησου
15The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.
15πιστοσ ο λογοσ και πασησ αποδοχησ αξιοσ οτι χριστοσ ιησουσ ηλθεν εισ τον κοσμον αμαρτωλουσ σωσαι ων πρωτοσ ειμι εγω
16However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life.
16αλλα δια τουτο ηλεηθην ινα εν εμοι πρωτω ενδειξηται ιησουσ χριστοσ την πασαν μακροθυμιαν προσ υποτυπωσιν των μελλοντων πιστευειν επ αυτω εισ ζωην αιωνιον
17Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, to God who alone is wise, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
17τω δε βασιλει των αιωνων αφθαρτω αορατω μονω σοφω θεω τιμη και δοξα εισ τουσ αιωνασ των αιωνων αμην
18I commit this instruction to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which were given to you before, that by them you may wage the good warfare,
18ταυτην την παραγγελιαν παρατιθεμαι σοι τεκνον τιμοθεε κατα τασ προαγουσασ επι σε προφητειασ ινα στρατευη εν αυταισ την καλην στρατειαν
19holding faith and a good conscience, which some having thrust away made a shipwreck concerning the faith,
19εχων πιστιν και αγαθην συνειδησιν ην τινεσ απωσαμενοι περι την πιστιν εναυαγησαν
20of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I delivered to Satan that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
20ων εστιν υμεναιοσ και αλεξανδροσ ουσ παρεδωκα τω σατανα ινα παιδευθωσιν μη βλασφημειν
