ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

01:01 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of

God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, [which is] our hope; 1:

02 Unto Timothy, [my] own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, [and]

peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

01:03 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went

into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach

no other doctrine,

01:04 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies,

which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in

faith: [so do].

01:05 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure

heart, and [of] a good conscience, and [of] faith unfeigned:

01:06 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto

vain jangling;

01:07 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither

what they say, nor whereof they affirm.

01:08 But we know that the law [is] good, if a man use it

lawfully;

01:09 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous

man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and

for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers

and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

01:10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with

mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and

if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

01:11 According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God,

which was committed to my trust.

01:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me,

for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

01:13 Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and

injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did [it] ignorantly

in unbelief.

01:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with

faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

01:15 This [is] a faithful saying, and worthy of all

acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save

sinners; of whom I am chief.

01:16 Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first

Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for a pattern

to them which should hereafter believe on him to life

everlasting.

01:17 Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only

wise God, [be] honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

01:18 This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to

the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them

mightest war a good warfare;

01:19 Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having

put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

01:20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered

unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

02:01 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications,

prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all

men;

02:02 For kings, and [for] all that are in authority; that we

may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

02:03 For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our

Saviour;

02:04 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the

knowledge of the truth.

02:05 For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and

men, the man Christ Jesus;

02:06 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due

time.

02:07 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I

speak the truth in Christ, [and] lie not;) a teacher of the

Gentiles in faith and verity.

02:08 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up

holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

02:09 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in

modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with

broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

02:10 But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good

works.

02:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

02:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority

over the man, but to be in silence.

02:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

02:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived

was in the transgression.

02:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if

they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

03:01 This [is] a true saying, If a man desire the office of a

bishop, he desireth a good work.

03:02 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife,

vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to

teach;

03:03 Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre;

but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;

03:04 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children

in subjection with all gravity;

03:05 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how

shall he take care of the church of God?)

03:06 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall

into the condemnation of the devil.

03:07 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are

without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

03:08 Likewise [must] the deacons [be] grave, not doubletongued,

not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;

03:09 Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.

03:10 And let these also first be proved; then let them use the

office of a deacon, being [found] blameless.

03:11 Even so [must their] wives [be] grave, not slanderers,

sober, faithful in all things.

03:12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their

children and their own houses well.

03:13 For they that have used the office of a deacon well

purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the

faith which is in Christ Jesus.

03:14 These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee

shortly:

03:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou

oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the

church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

03:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:

God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of

angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world,

received up into glory.

04:01 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter

times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing

spirits, and doctrines of devils;

04:02 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience

seared with a hot iron;

04:03 Forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from

meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving

of them which believe and know the truth.

04:04 For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be

refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

04:05 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

04:06 If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things,

thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in

the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast

attained.

04:07 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise

thyself [rather] unto godliness.

04:08 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is

profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now

is, and of that which is to come.

04:09 This [is] a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.

04:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because

we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men,

specially of those that believe.

04:11 These things command and teach.

04:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of

the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit,

in faith, in purity.

04:13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation,

to doctrine.

04:14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given

thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the

presbytery.

04:15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them;

that thy profiting may appear to all.

04:16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue

in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and

them that hear thee.

05:01 Rebuke not an elder, but entreat [him] as a father; [and]

the younger men as brethren;

05:02 The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with

all purity.

05:03 Honour widows that are widows indeed.

05:04 But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn

first to show piety at home, and to requite their parents: for

that is good and acceptable before God.

05:05 Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in

God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.

05:06 But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.

05:07 And these things give in charge, that they may be

blameless.

05:08 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for

those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse

than an infidel.

05:09 Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore

years old, having been the wife of one man,

05:10 Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up

children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the

saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have

diligently followed every good work.

05:11 But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun

to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;

05:12 Having damnation, because they have cast off their first

faith.

05:13 And withal they learn [to be] idle, wandering about from

house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and

busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

05:14 I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear

children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary

to speak reproachfully.

05:15 For some are already turned aside after Satan.

05:16 If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them

relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may

relieve them that are widows indeed.

05:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double

honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

05:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox

that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer [is] worthy of his

reward.

05:19 Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before

two or three witnesses.

05:20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may

fear.

05:21 I charge [thee] before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ,

and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without

preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.

05:22 Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of

other men's sins: keep thyself pure.

05:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy

stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.

05:24 Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to

judgment; and some [men] they follow after.

05:25 Likewise also the good works [of some] are manifest

beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.

06:01 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their

own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and [his]

doctrine be not blasphemed.

06:02 And they that have believing masters, let them not

despise [them], because they are brethren; but rather do [them]

service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the

benefit. These things teach and exhort.

06:03 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome

words, [even] the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the

doctrine which is according to godliness;

06:04 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions

and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings,

evil surmisings,

06:05 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and

destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from

such withdraw thyself.

06:06 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

06:07 For we brought nothing into [this] world, [and it is]

certain we can carry nothing out.

06:08 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

06:09 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a

snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown

men in destruction and perdition.

06:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which

while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and

pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

06:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow

after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

06:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life,

whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good

profession before many witnesses.

06:13 I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth

all things, and [before] Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate

witnessed a good confession;

06:14 That thou keep [this] commandment without spot,

unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

06:15 Which in his times he shall show, [who is] the blessed

and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

06:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no

man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to

whom [be] honour and power everlasting. Amen.

06:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not

highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God,

who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

06:18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready

to distribute, willing to communicate;

06:19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation

against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

06:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust,

avoiding profane [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of

science falsely so called:

06:21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith.

Grace [be] with thee. Amen.
