1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Savior, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
1:2  To Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
1:3  As I sought 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 fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
1:5  Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
1:6  From which some having swerved have turned aside to vain jangling;
1:7  Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
1:8  But we know that the law is good, if a man use 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 murderers,
1:10  For fornicators, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for enslavers, for liars, for perjured persons, 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, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
1:13  Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.
1:14  And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
1:15  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.
1:16  However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.
1:17  Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1:18  This charge I commit to you, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on 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 shipwreck:
1:20  Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
