1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Savior, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is our hope;
1:2  Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
1:3  As I besought you to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that you might charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
1:4  Neither give heed to myths and endless genealogies, which cause questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
1:5  Now the end of the commandment is love out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
1:6  From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talk;
1:7  Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor the things they affirm.
1:8  But we know that the law is good, if a man uses it lawfully;
1:9  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,
1:10  For fornicators, for homosexuals, for slave traders, for liars, for perjurers, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
1:11  According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
1:12  And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has enabled me, that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
1:13  Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and insolent: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
1:14  And the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
1:15  This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
1:16  But for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all longsuffering, for an example to them who should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
1:17  Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
1:18  This charge I commit unto you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which were made concerning you, that you by them might war a good warfare;
1:19  Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made it shipwreck:
1:20  Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
