Библия, синодално издание

1 Павел, апостол Иисус Христов по повеление на Бога, нашия Спасител, и на Господа Иисуса Христа, нашата надежда, – (Кол 1:27) 2 до Тимотея, истинско по вяра чедо: благодат, милост, мир от Бога, нашия Отец, и от Христа Иисуса, нашия Господ. (Д А 16:1; Отк 1:4)

Д А 16:1Отк 1:4

3 Както на тръгване за Македония те молих да останеш в Ефес, така и сега те моля да поръчаш на някои да не проповядват друго учение, 4 нито да се занимавате басни и безкрайни родословия, които причиняват поскоро препирни, отколкото назидание Божие във вярата. (1 Тим 4:7; Тит 1:14) 5 А целта на поръчването е – да се породи любов от чисто сърце, от добра съвест и нелицемерна вяра; (Рим 13:8) 6 някои, като не постигнаха тия неща, отклониха се в празнословие, 7 желаейки да бъдат законоучители, без да разбират ни какво говорят, ни какво утвърждават. 8 А ние знаем, че законът е добър, ако някой го употребява законно, (Рим 7:12) 9 като знае, че законът е установен не за праведник, а за беззаконници и непослушници, за нечестивци и грешници, за неправедни и скверни, за ония, които оскърбяват баща си и майка си, за човекоубийци, (Гал 5:23) 10 за блудници, мъжеложци, разбойници, клеветници, скотоложци, лъжци, клетвопрестъпници и за всичко друго, що е противно на здравото учение, 11 по славното благовестие на блажения Бог, що ми бе поверено. (1 Сол 2:4) 12 Благодаря на Христа Иисуса, нашия Господ, Който ми даде сила, задето ме призна за верен, като отреди на служба мене, (Д А 9:15) 13 който по-рано бях хулител, гонител и оскърбител, но бидох помилуван, защото, без да зная, вършех това в неверие; (Гал 1:13) 14 а с вяра и любов в Христа Иисуса се преумножи благодатта на нашия Господ. (1 Кор 15:10) 15 Верни и за всяко приемане достойни са думите, че Христос Иисус дойде в света да спаси грешниците, от които пръв съм аз. (Мт 9:13; Мк 2:17; Лк 5:32)

Мт 9:13Мк 2:17Лк 5:32

16 Но затова бидох помилуван, за да покаже Иисус Христос в мене първи всичкото Си дълготърпение за пример на ония, които повярват в Него за живот вечен. 17 А на Царя на вековете, на нетленния, невидимия, едничкия премъдър Бог чест и слава вовеки веков. Амин. 18 Чедо Тимотее! Тая поръка ти предавам съгласно по-раншните за тебе пророчества, за да воюваш съобразно с тях като добър воин, (1 Тим 6:13) 19 имайки вяра и добра съвест, която някои отхвърлиха, и претърпяха корабокрушение във вярата; (1 Тим 3:9) 20 от тях са Именей и Александър, които предадох на сатаната, за да се научат да не богохулствуват. (1 Кор 5:5)

New International Reader’s Version

от Biblica

1 I, Paul, am writing this letter. I am an apostle of Christ Jesus, just as God our Saviour commanded. Christ Jesus also commanded it. We have put our hope in him. 2 Timothy, I am sending you this letter. You are my true son in the faith. May God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord give you grace, mercy and peace.

Paul warns Timothy to oppose false teachers

3 Timothy, stay there in Ephesus. That is what I told you to do when I went into Macedonia. I want you to command certain people not to teach things that aren’t true. 4 And command them not to spend their time on stories that are made up. They must not waste time on family histories that never end. These things only lead to fights about ideas. They don’t help God’s work move forward. His work is done by faith. 5 Love is the purpose of my command. Love comes from a pure heart. It comes from a good sense of what is right and wrong. It comes from faith that is honest and true. 6 Some have turned from these teachings. They would rather talk about things that have no meaning. 7 They want to be teachers of the law. And they are very sure about that law. But they don’t know what they are talking about. 8 We know that the law is good if it is used properly. 9 We also know that the law isn’t made for godly people. It is made for those who break the law. It is for those who refuse to obey. It is for ungodly and sinful people. It is for those who aren’t holy and who don’t believe. It is for those who kill their fathers or mothers. It is for murderers. 10 It is for those who commit sexual sins. It is for those who commit homosexual acts. It is for people who buy and sell slaves. It is for liars. It is for people who tell lies in court. It is for those who are a witness to things that aren’t true. And it is for anything else that is the opposite of true teaching. 11 True teaching agrees with the good news about the glory of the blessed God. He trusted me with that good news.

The Lord pours out his grace on Paul

12 I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord. He has given me strength. I thank him that he considered me faithful. I thank him for appointing me to serve him. 13 I used to speak evil things against Jesus. I tried to hurt his followers. I really pushed them around. But God showed me mercy anyway. I did those things without knowing any better. I wasn’t a believer. 14 Our Lord poured out more and more of his grace on me. Along with it came faith and love from Christ Jesus. 15 Here is a saying that you can trust. It should be accepted completely. Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. And I am the worst sinner of all. 16 But for that very reason, God showed me mercy. And I am the worst of sinners. He showed me mercy so that Christ Jesus could show that he is very patient. I was an example for those who would come to believe in him. Then they would receive eternal life. 17 The eternal King will never die. He can’t be seen. He is the only God. Give him honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Paul commands Timothy

18 My son Timothy, I am giving you this command. It is in keeping with the prophecies once made about you. By remembering them, you can fight the battle well. 19 Then you will hold on to faith. You will hold on to a good sense of what is right and wrong. Some have not accepted this knowledge of right and wrong. So they have destroyed their faith. They are like a ship that has sunk. 20 Hymenaeus and Alexander are among them. I have handed them over to Satan. That will teach them not to speak evil things against God.
