1 Timothy - douay rheims

Chapter 6

¹ Whosoever are servants under the yoke, let them count their masters worthy of all honour; lest the name of the Lord and his doctrine be blasphemed.
² But they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but serve them the rather, because they are faithful and beloved, who are partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.
³ If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to that doctrine which is according to godliness,
⁴ He is proud, knowing nothing, but sick about questions and strifes of words; from which arise envies, contentions, blasphemies, evil suspicions,
⁵ Conflicts of men corrupted in mind, and who are destitute of the truth, supposing gain to be godliness.
⁶ But godliness with contentment is great gain.
⁷ For we brought nothing into this world: and certainly we can carry nothing out.
⁸ But having food, and wherewith to be covered, with these we are content.
⁹ For they that will become rich, fall into temptation, and into the snare of the devil, and into many unprofitable and hurtful desires, which drown men into destruction and perdition.
¹⁰ For the desire of money is the root of all evils; which some coveting have erred from the faith, and have entangled themselves in many sorrows.
¹¹ But thou, O man of God, fly these things: and pursue justice, godliness, faith, charity, patience, mildness.
¹² Fight the good fight of faith: lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art called, and hast confessed a good confession before many witnesses.
¹³ I charge thee before God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who gave testimony under Pontius Pilate, a good confession,
¹⁴ That thou keep the commandment without spot, blameless, unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ,
¹⁵ Which in his times he shall shew who is the Blessed and only Mighty, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
¹⁶ Who only hath immortality, and inhabiteth light inaccessible, whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and empire everlasting. Amen.
¹⁷ Charge the rich of this world not to be highminded, nor to trust in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, (who giveth us abundantly all things to enjoy,)
¹⁸ To do good, to be rich in good works, to give easily, to communicate to others,
¹⁹ To lay up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the true life.
²⁰ O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding the profane novelties of words, and oppositions of knowledge falsely so called.
²¹ Which some promising, have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

Chapter 6

¹ Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and his doctrine may not be blasphemed.
² 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.
³ If any man teacheth otherwise, and consenteth not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the doctrine which is according to godliness,
⁴ He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, from which cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
⁵ Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing gain to be godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
⁶ But godliness with contentment is great gain.
⁷ For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
⁸ And having food and raiment, with these let us be content.
⁹ 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.
¹⁰ For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some have coveted, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
¹¹ But thou, O man of God, flee from these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
¹² Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
¹³ I give thee charge in the sight of God, who maketh alive all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate testified a good confession;
¹⁴ That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
¹⁵ Which in his times he will show who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
¹⁶ Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.
¹⁷ Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
¹⁸ That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
¹⁹ Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
²⁰ O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called;
²¹ Which some professing, have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.

Chapter 6

¹ Let as many bondmen as are under yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and the teaching be not blasphemed.
² And they that have believing masters, let them not despise [them] because they are brethren; but let them the rather serve them with subjection, because they are faithful and beloved, who profit by the good and ready service [rendered]. These things teach and exhort.
³ If any one teach differently, and do not accede to sound words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the teaching which [is] according to piety,
⁴ he is puffed up, knowing nothing, but sick about questions and disputes of words, out of which arise envy, strife, injurious words, evil suspicions,
⁵ constant quarrellings of men corrupted in mind and destitute of the truth, holding gain to be [the end of] piety.
⁶ But piety with contentment *is* great gain.
⁷ For we have brought nothing into the world: [it is] [manifest] that neither can we carry anything out.
⁸ But having sustenance and covering, we will be content with these.
⁹ But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many unwise and hurtful lusts, which plunge men into destruction and ruin.
¹⁰ For the love of money is [the] root of every evil; which some having aspired after, have wandered from the faith, and pierced themselves with many sorrows.
¹¹ But *thou*, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness of spirit.
¹² Strive earnestly [in] the good conflict of faith. Lay hold of eternal life, to which thou hast been called, and hast confessed the good confession before many witnesses.
¹³ I enjoin thee before God who preserves all things in life, and Christ Jesus who witnessed before Pontius Pilate the good confession,
¹⁴ that thou keep the commandment spotless, irreproachable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;
¹⁵ which in its own time the blessed and only Ruler shall shew, the King of those that reign, and Lord of those that exercise lordship;
¹⁶ who only has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen, nor is able to see; to whom [be] honour and eternal might. Amen.
¹⁷ Enjoin on those rich in the present age not to be high-minded, nor to trust on the uncertainty of riches; but in the God who affords us all things richly for [our] enjoyment;
¹⁸ to do good, to be rich in good works, to be liberal in distributing, disposed to communicate [of their substance],
¹⁹ laying by for themselves a good foundation for the future, that they may lay hold of [what is] really life.
²⁰ O Timotheus, keep the entrusted deposit, avoiding profane, vain babblings, and oppositions of false-named knowledge,
²¹ of which some having made profession, have missed the faith. Grace [be] with thee.

Chapter 6

¹ Let all who are servants under the yoke give all honour to their masters, so that no evil may be said against the name of God and his teaching.
² And let those whose masters are of the faith have respect for them because they are brothers, working for them the more readily, because those who take part in the good work are of the faith and are dear. Give orders and teaching about these things.
³ If any man gives different teaching, not in agreement with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the teaching which is in agreement with true religion,
⁴ He has an over-high opinion of himself; being without knowledge, having only an unhealthy love of questionings and wars of words, from which come envy, fighting, cruel words, evil thoughts,
⁵ Bitter talk of men who, being evil in mind and dead to what is true, take the faith to be a way of making profit.
⁶ But true faith, with peace of mind, is of great profit:
⁷ For we came into the world with nothing, and we are not able to take anything out;
⁸ But if we have food and a roof over us, let that be enough.
⁹ But those who have a desire for wealth are falling into danger, and are taken as in a net by a number of foolish and damaging desires, through which men are overtaken by death and destruction.
¹⁰ For the love of money is a root of all evil: and some whose hearts were fixed on it have been turned away from the faith, and been wounded with unnumbered sorrows.
¹¹ But you, O man of God, keep yourself from these things, and go after righteousness, religion, faith, love, a quiet mind, gentle behaviour.
¹² Be fighting the good fight of the faith; take for yourself the life eternal, for which you were marked out, and of which you gave witness in the eyes of all.
¹³ I give you orders before God, the giver of life, and Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate gave witness to the faith,
¹⁴ To keep the word untouched by evil, clear from all shame, till the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ:
¹⁵ Which at the right time he will make clear, who is the eternal and only Ruler, King of kings, and Lord of lords;
¹⁶ Who only has life for ever, living in light to which no man may come near; whom no man has seen or is able to see: to whom be honour and power for ever. So be it.
¹⁷ Give orders to those who have money and goods in this life, not to be lifted up in their minds, or to put their hope in the uncertain chances of wealth, but in God who gives us in full measure all things for our use;
¹⁸ And to do good, having wealth in good works, being quick to give, taking part with one another;
¹⁹ Making ready for themselves a safe place for the time to come, so that the true life may be theirs.
²⁰ O Timothy, take good care of that which is given to you, turning away from the wrong and foolish talk and arguments of that knowledge which is falsely so named;
²¹ Through which some, who gave their minds to it, have been turned away from the faith. Grace be with you.
