提摩太前書（1 Timothy）
cuv≡提前≡1≡1≡奉我們救主神和我們的盼望基督耶穌之命，作基督耶穌使徒的保羅
rsv≡提前≡1≡1≡Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Saviour, and Christ Jesus our hope;
cuv≡提前≡1≡2≡寫信給那因信主作我真兒子的提摩太。願恩惠、憐憫、平安從父神和我們主基督耶穌歸與你！
rsv≡提前≡1≡2≡unto Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
cuv≡提前≡1≡3≡我往馬其頓去的時候，曾勸你仍住在以弗所，好囑咐那幾個人不可傳異教，
rsv≡提前≡1≡3≡As I exhorted thee to tarry at Ephesus, when I was going into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge certain men not to teach a different doctrine,
cuv≡提前≡1≡4≡也不可聽從荒渺無憑的話語和無窮的家譜；這等事只生辯論，並不發明神在信上所立章程。
rsv≡提前≡1≡4≡neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith; [so do I now].
cuv≡提前≡1≡5≡但命令的總歸就是愛；這愛是從清潔的心和無虧的良心，無偽的信心生出來的。
rsv≡提前≡1≡5≡But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:
cuv≡提前≡1≡6≡有人偏離這些，反去講虛浮的話，
rsv≡提前≡1≡6≡from which things some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talking;
cuv≡提前≡1≡7≡想要作教法師，卻不明白自己所講說的所論定的。
rsv≡提前≡1≡7≡desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm.
cuv≡提前≡1≡8≡我們知道律法原是好的，只要人用得合宜；
rsv≡提前≡1≡8≡But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully,
cuv≡提前≡1≡9≡因為律法不是為義人設立的，乃是為不法和不服的，不虔誠和犯罪的，不聖潔和戀世俗的，弒父母和殺人的，
rsv≡提前≡1≡9≡as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
cuv≡提前≡1≡10≡行淫和親男色的，搶人口和說謊話的，並起假誓的，或是為別樣敵正道的事設立的。
rsv≡提前≡1≡10≡for fornicators, for abusers of themselves with men, for menstealers, for liars, for false swearers, and if there be any other thing contrary to the sound doctrine;
cuv≡提前≡1≡11≡這是照著可稱頌之神交託我榮耀福音說的。
rsv≡提前≡1≡11≡according to the gospel of the glory of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
cuv≡提前≡1≡12≡我感謝那給我力量的我們主基督耶穌，因他以我有忠心，派我服事他。
rsv≡提前≡1≡12≡I thank him that enabled me, [even] Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing me to [his] service;
cuv≡提前≡1≡13≡我從前是褻瀆神的，逼迫人的，侮慢人的；然而我還蒙了憐憫，因我是不信不明白的時候而作的。
rsv≡提前≡1≡13≡though I was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: howbeit I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief;
cuv≡提前≡1≡14≡並且我主的恩是格外豐盛，使我在基督耶穌裡有信心和愛心。
rsv≡提前≡1≡14≡and the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
cuv≡提前≡1≡15≡「基督耶穌降世，為要拯救罪人。」這話是可信的，是十分可佩服的。在罪人中我是個罪魁。
rsv≡提前≡1≡15≡Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief:
cuv≡提前≡1≡16≡然而，我蒙了憐憫，是因耶穌基督要在我這罪魁身上顯明他一切的忍耐，給後來信他得永生的人作榜樣。
rsv≡提前≡1≡16≡howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life.
cuv≡提前≡1≡17≡但願尊貴、榮耀歸與那不能朽壞、不能看見、永世的君王、獨一的神，直到永永遠遠。阿們！
rsv≡提前≡1≡17≡Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, [be] honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.
cuv≡提前≡1≡18≡我兒提摩太啊，我照從前指著你的預言，將這命令交託你，叫你因此可以打那美好的仗。
rsv≡提前≡1≡18≡This charge I commit unto thee, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies which led the way to thee, that by them thou mayest war the good warfare;
cuv≡提前≡1≡19≡常存信心和無虧的良心。有人丟棄良心，就在真道上如同船破壞了一般。
rsv≡提前≡1≡19≡holding faith and a good conscience; which some having thrust from them made shipwreck concerning the faith:
cuv≡提前≡1≡20≡其中有許米乃和亞力山大；我已經把他們交給撒但，使他們受責罰就不再謗瀆了。
rsv≡提前≡1≡20≡of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I delivered unto Satan, that they might be taught not to blaspheme.
cuv≡提前≡2≡1≡我勸你，第一要為萬人懇求、禱告、代求、祝謝；
rsv≡提前≡2≡1≡I exhort therefore, first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, be made for all men;
cuv≡提前≡2≡2≡為君王和一切在位的，也該如此，使我們可以敬虔、端正、平安無事的度日。
rsv≡提前≡2≡2≡for kings and all that are in high place; that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and gravity.
cuv≡提前≡2≡3≡這是好的，在神我們救主面前可蒙悅納。
rsv≡提前≡2≡3≡This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
cuv≡提前≡2≡4≡他願意萬人得救，明白真道。
rsv≡提前≡2≡4≡who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.
cuv≡提前≡2≡5≡因為只有一位神，在神和人中間，只有一位中保，乃是降世為人的基督耶穌；
rsv≡提前≡2≡5≡For there is one God, one mediator also between God and men, [himself] man, Christ Jesus,
cuv≡提前≡2≡6≡他捨自己作萬人的贖價，到了時候，這事必證明出來。
rsv≡提前≡2≡6≡who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony [to be borne] in its own times;
cuv≡提前≡2≡7≡我為此奉派作傳道的，作使徒，作外邦人的師傅，教導他們相信，學習真道。我說的是真話，並不是謊言。
rsv≡提前≡2≡7≡whereunto I was appointed a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth, I lie not), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.
cuv≡提前≡2≡8≡我願男人無忿怒，無爭論（或作：疑惑），舉起聖潔的手，隨處禱告。
rsv≡提前≡2≡8≡I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing.
cuv≡提前≡2≡9≡又願女人廉恥、自守，以正派衣裳為妝飾，不以編髮、黃金、珍珠，和貴價的衣裳為妝飾；
rsv≡提前≡2≡9≡In like manner, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefastness and sobriety; not with braided hair, and gold or pearls or costly raiment;
cuv≡提前≡2≡10≡只要有善行，這纔與自稱是敬神的女人相宜。
rsv≡提前≡2≡10≡but (which becometh women professing godliness) through good works.
cuv≡提前≡2≡11≡女人要沉靜學道，一味的順服。
rsv≡提前≡2≡11≡Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.
cuv≡提前≡2≡12≡我不許女人講道，也不許他轄管男人，只要沉靜。
rsv≡提前≡2≡12≡But I permit not a woman to teach, nor to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness.
cuv≡提前≡2≡13≡因為先造的是亞當，後造的是夏娃；
rsv≡提前≡2≡13≡For Adam was first formed, then Eve;
cuv≡提前≡2≡14≡且不是亞當被引誘，乃是女人被引誘，陷在罪裡。
rsv≡提前≡2≡14≡and Adam was not beguiled, but the woman being beguiled hath fallen into transgression:
cuv≡提前≡2≡15≡然而，女人若常存信心、愛心，又聖潔自守，就必在生產上得救。
rsv≡提前≡2≡15≡but she shall be saved through her child-bearing, if they continue in faith and love and sanctification with sobriety.
cuv≡提前≡3≡1≡「人若想要得監督的職分，就是羨慕善工。」這話是可信的。
rsv≡提前≡3≡1≡Faithful is the saying, If a man seeketh the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.
cuv≡提前≡3≡2≡作監督的，必須無可指責，只作一個婦人的丈夫，有節制，自守，端正，樂意接待遠人，善於教導；
rsv≡提前≡3≡2≡The bishop therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, orderly, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
cuv≡提前≡3≡3≡不因酒滋事，不打人，只要溫和，不爭競，不貪財；
rsv≡提前≡3≡3≡no brawler, no striker; but gentle, not contentious, no lover of money;
cuv≡提前≡3≡4≡好好管理自己的家，使兒女凡事端莊順服（或作：端端莊莊的使兒女順服）。
rsv≡提前≡3≡4≡one that ruleth well his own house, having [his] children in subjection with all gravity;
cuv≡提前≡3≡5≡人若不知道管理自己的家，焉能照管神的教會呢？
rsv≡提前≡3≡5≡(but if a man knoweth not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God? )
cuv≡提前≡3≡6≡初入教的不可作監督，恐怕他自高自大，就落在魔鬼所受的刑罰裡。
rsv≡提前≡3≡6≡not a novice, lest being puffed up he fall into the condemnation of the devil.
cuv≡提前≡3≡7≡監督也必須在教外有好名聲，恐怕被人毀謗，落在魔鬼的網羅裡。
rsv≡提前≡3≡7≡Moreover he must have good testimony from them that are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.
cuv≡提前≡3≡8≡作執事的，也是如此：必須端莊，不一口兩舌，不好喝酒，不貪不義之財；
rsv≡提前≡3≡8≡Deacons in like manner [must be] grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;
cuv≡提前≡3≡9≡要存清潔的良心，固守真道的奧秘。
rsv≡提前≡3≡9≡holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.
cuv≡提前≡3≡10≡這等人也要先受試驗，若沒有可責之處，然後叫他們作執事。
rsv≡提前≡3≡10≡And let these also first be proved; then let them serve as deacons, if they be blameless.
cuv≡提前≡3≡11≡女執事（原文是女人）也是如此：必須端莊，不說讒言，有節制，凡事忠心。
rsv≡提前≡3≡11≡Women in like manner [must be] grave, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.
cuv≡提前≡3≡12≡執事只要作一個婦人的丈夫，好好管理兒女和自己的家。
rsv≡提前≡3≡12≡Let deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling [their] children and their own houses well.
cuv≡提前≡3≡13≡因為善作執事的，自己就得到美好的地步，並且在基督耶穌裡的真道上大有膽量。
rsv≡提前≡3≡13≡For they that have served well as deacons gain to themselves a good standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.
cuv≡提前≡3≡14≡我指望快到你那裡去，所以先將這些事寫給你。
rsv≡提前≡3≡14≡These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly;
cuv≡提前≡3≡15≡倘若我耽延日久，你也可以知道在神的家中當怎樣行。這家就是永生神的教會，真理的柱石和根基。
rsv≡提前≡3≡15≡but if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how men ought to behave themselves in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
cuv≡提前≡3≡16≡大哉，敬虔的奧秘！無人不以為然：就是神在肉身顯現，被聖靈稱義（或作：在靈性稱義），被天使看見，被傳於外邦，被世人信服，被接在榮耀裡。
rsv≡提前≡3≡16≡And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness; He who was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the spirit, Seen of angels, Preached among the nations, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.
cuv≡提前≡4≡1≡聖靈明說，在後來的時候，必有人離棄真道，聽從那引誘人的邪靈和鬼魔的道理。
rsv≡提前≡4≡1≡But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,
cuv≡提前≡4≡2≡這因為說謊之人的假冒；這等人的良心如同被熱鐵烙慣了一般。
rsv≡提前≡4≡2≡through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron;
cuv≡提前≡4≡3≡他們禁止嫁娶，又禁戒食物（或作：又叫人戒葷），就是神所造、叫那信而明白真道的人感謝著領受的。
rsv≡提前≡4≡3≡forbidding to marry, [and commanding] to abstain from meats, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth.
cuv≡提前≡4≡4≡凡神所造的物都是好的，若感謝著領受，就沒有一樣可棄的，
rsv≡提前≡4≡4≡For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it be received with thanksgiving:
cuv≡提前≡4≡5≡都因神的道和人的祈求成為聖潔了。
rsv≡提前≡4≡5≡for it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.
cuv≡提前≡4≡6≡你若將這些事提醒弟兄們，便是基督耶穌的好執事，在真道的話語和你向來所服從的善道上得了教育。
rsv≡提前≡4≡6≡If thou put the brethren in mind of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast followed [until now]:
cuv≡提前≡4≡7≡只是要棄絕那世俗的言語和老婦荒渺的話，在敬虔上操練自己。
rsv≡提前≡4≡7≡but refuse profane and old wives' fables. And exercise thyself unto godliness:
cuv≡提前≡4≡8≡「操練身體，益處還少；惟獨敬虔，凡事都有益處，因有今生和來生的應許。」
rsv≡提前≡4≡8≡for bodily exercise is profitable for a little; but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life which now is, and of that which is to come.
cuv≡提前≡4≡9≡這話是可信的，是十分可佩服的。
rsv≡提前≡4≡9≡Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation.
cuv≡提前≡4≡10≡我們勞苦努力，正是為此，因我們的指望在乎永生的神；他是萬人的救主，更是信徒的救主。
rsv≡提前≡4≡10≡For to this end we labor and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of them that believe.
cuv≡提前≡4≡11≡這些事，你要吩咐人，也要教導人。
rsv≡提前≡4≡11≡These things command and teach.
cuv≡提前≡4≡12≡不可叫人小看你年輕，總要在言語、行為、愛心、信心、清潔上，都作信徒的榜樣。
rsv≡提前≡4≡12≡Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an ensample to them that believe, in word, in manner of life, in love, in faith, in purity.
cuv≡提前≡4≡13≡你要以宣讀、勸勉、教導為念，直等到我來。
rsv≡提前≡4≡13≡Till I come, give heed to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.
cuv≡提前≡4≡14≡你不要輕忽所得的恩賜，就是從前藉著預言、在眾長老按手的時候賜給你的。
rsv≡提前≡4≡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.
cuv≡提前≡4≡15≡這些事你要殷勤去作，並要在此專心，使眾人看出你的長進來。
rsv≡提前≡4≡15≡Be diligent in these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy progress may be manifest unto all.
cuv≡提前≡4≡16≡你要謹慎自己和自己的教訓，要在這些事上恆心；因為這樣行，又能救自己，又能救聽你的人。
rsv≡提前≡4≡16≡Take heed to thyself, and to thy teaching. Continue in these things; for in doing this thou shalt save both thyself and them that hear thee.
cuv≡提前≡5≡1≡不可嚴責老年人，只要勸他如同父親；勸少年人如同弟兄；
rsv≡提前≡5≡1≡Rebuke not an elder, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brethren:
cuv≡提前≡5≡2≡勸老年婦女如同母親；勸少年婦女如同姊妹；總要清清潔潔的。
rsv≡提前≡5≡2≡the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
cuv≡提前≡5≡3≡要尊敬那真為寡婦的。
rsv≡提前≡5≡3≡Honor widows that are widows indeed.
cuv≡提前≡5≡4≡若寡婦有兒女，或有孫子孫女，便叫他們先在自己家中學著行孝，報答親恩，因為這在神面前是可悅納的。
rsv≡提前≡5≡4≡But if any widow hath children or grandchildren, let them learn first to show piety towards their own family, and to requite their parents: for this is acceptable in the sight of God.
cuv≡提前≡5≡5≡那獨居無靠、真為寡婦的，是仰賴神，晝夜不住的祈求禱告。
rsv≡提前≡5≡5≡Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, hath her hope set on God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.
cuv≡提前≡5≡6≡但那好宴樂的寡婦正活著的時候也是死的。
rsv≡提前≡5≡6≡But she that giveth herself to pleasure is dead while she liveth.
cuv≡提前≡5≡7≡這些事你要囑咐他們，叫他們無可指責。
rsv≡提前≡5≡7≡These things also command, that they may be without reproach.
cuv≡提前≡5≡8≡人若不看顧親屬，就是背了真道，比不信的人還不好，不看顧自己家裡的人，更是如此。
rsv≡提前≡5≡8≡But if any provideth not for his own, and specially his own household, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever.
cuv≡提前≡5≡9≡寡婦記在冊子上，必須年紀到六十歲，從來只作一個丈夫的妻子，
rsv≡提前≡5≡9≡Let none be enrolled as a widow under threescore years old, [having been] the wife of one man,
cuv≡提前≡5≡10≡又有行善的名聲，就如養育兒女，接待遠人，洗聖徒的腳，救濟遭難的人，竭力行各樣善事。
rsv≡提前≡5≡10≡well reported of for good works; if she hath brought up children, if she hath used hospitality to strangers, if she hath washed the saints' feet, if she hath relieved the afflicted, if she hath diligently followed every good work.
cuv≡提前≡5≡11≡至於年輕的寡婦，就可以辭他；因為他們的情慾發動，違背基督的時候就想要嫁人。
rsv≡提前≡5≡11≡But younger widows refuse: for when they have waxed wanton against Christ, they desire to marry;
cuv≡提前≡5≡12≡他們被定罪，是因廢棄了當初所許的願；
rsv≡提前≡5≡12≡having condemnation, because they have rejected their first pledge.
cuv≡提前≡5≡13≡並且他們又習慣懶惰，挨家閒遊；不但是懶惰，又說長道短，好管閒事，說些不當說的話。
rsv≡提前≡5≡13≡And withal they learn also [to be] idle, going about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
cuv≡提前≡5≡14≡所以我願意年輕的寡婦嫁人，生養兒女，治理家務，不給敵人辱罵的把柄。
rsv≡提前≡5≡14≡I desire therefore that the younger [widows] marry, bear children, rule the household, give no occasion to the adversary for reviling:
cuv≡提前≡5≡15≡因為已經有轉去隨從撒但的。
rsv≡提前≡5≡15≡for already some are turned aside after Satan.
cuv≡提前≡5≡16≡信主的婦女，若家中有寡婦，自己就當救濟他們，不可累著教會，好使教會能救濟那真無倚靠的寡婦。
rsv≡提前≡5≡16≡If any woman that believeth hath widows, let her relieve them, and let not the church be burdened; that it mat relieve them that are widows indeed.
cuv≡提前≡5≡17≡那善於管理教會的長老，當以為配受加倍的敬奉；那勞苦傳道教導人的，更當如此。
rsv≡提前≡5≡17≡Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in the word and in teaching.
cuv≡提前≡5≡18≡因為經上說：「牛在場上踹穀的時候，不可籠住他的嘴」；又說：「工人得工價是應當的。」
rsv≡提前≡5≡18≡For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. And, The laborer is worthy of his hire.
cuv≡提前≡5≡19≡控告長老的呈子，非有兩三個見證就不要收。
rsv≡提前≡5≡19≡Against an elder receive not an accusation, except at [the mouth of] two or three witnesses.
cuv≡提前≡5≡20≡犯罪的人，當在眾人面前責備他，叫其餘的人也可以懼怕。
rsv≡提前≡5≡20≡Them that sin reprove in the sight of all, that the rest also may be in fear.
cuv≡提前≡5≡21≡我在神和基督耶穌並蒙揀選的天使面前囑咐你：要遵守這些話，不可存成見，行事也不可有偏心。
rsv≡提前≡5≡21≡I charge [thee] in the sight of God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.
cuv≡提前≡5≡22≡給人行按手的禮，不可急促；不要在別人的罪上有分，要保守自己清潔。
rsv≡提前≡5≡22≡Lay hands hastily on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.
cuv≡提前≡5≡23≡因你胃口不清，屢次患病，再不要照常喝水，可以稍微用點酒。
rsv≡提前≡5≡23≡Be no longer a drinker of water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.
cuv≡提前≡5≡24≡有些人的罪是明顯的，如同先到審判案前；有些人的罪是隨後跟了去的。
rsv≡提前≡5≡24≡Some men's sins are evident, going before unto judgment; and some men also they follow after.
cuv≡提前≡5≡25≡這樣，善行也有明顯的，那不明顯的也不能隱藏。
rsv≡提前≡5≡25≡In like manner also there are good works that are evident; and such as are otherwise cannot be hid.
cuv≡提前≡6≡1≡凡在軛下作僕人的，當以自己主人配受十分的恭敬，免得神的名和道理被人褻瀆。
rsv≡提前≡6≡1≡Let as many as are servants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine be not blasphemed.
cuv≡提前≡6≡2≡僕人有信道的主人，不可因為與他是弟兄就輕看他；更要加意服事他；因為得服事之益處的，是信道蒙愛的。你要以此教訓人，勸勉人。
rsv≡提前≡6≡2≡And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but let them serve them the rather, because they that partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. These things teach and exhort.
cuv≡提前≡6≡3≡若有人傳異教，不服從我們主耶穌基督純正的話與那合乎敬虔的道理，
rsv≡提前≡6≡3≡If any man teacheth a different doctrine, and consenteth not to sound words, [even] the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
cuv≡提前≡6≡4≡他是自高自大，一無所知，專好問難，爭辯言詞，從此就生出嫉妒、紛爭、毀謗、妄疑，
rsv≡提前≡6≡4≡he is puffed up, knowing nothing, but doting about questionings and disputes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
cuv≡提前≡6≡5≡並那壞了心術、失喪真理之人的爭競。他們以敬虔為得利的門路。
rsv≡提前≡6≡5≡wranglings of men corrupted in mind and bereft of the truth, supposing that godliness is a way of gain.
cuv≡提前≡6≡6≡然而，敬虔加上知足的心便是大利了；
rsv≡提前≡6≡6≡But godliness with contentment is great gain:
cuv≡提前≡6≡7≡因為我們沒有帶甚麼到世上來，也不能帶甚麼去。
rsv≡提前≡6≡7≡for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out;
cuv≡提前≡6≡8≡只要有衣有食，就當知足。
rsv≡提前≡6≡8≡but having food and covering we shall be therewith content.
cuv≡提前≡6≡9≡但那些想要發財的人，就陷在迷惑、落在網羅和許多無知有害的私慾裡，叫人沉在敗壞和滅亡中。
rsv≡提前≡6≡9≡But they that are minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown men in destruction and perdition.
cuv≡提前≡6≡10≡貪財是萬惡之根。有人貪戀錢財，就被引誘離了真道，用許多愁苦把自己刺透了。
rsv≡提前≡6≡10≡For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
cuv≡提前≡6≡11≡但你這屬神的人要逃避這些事，追求公義、敬虔、信心、愛心、忍耐、溫柔。
rsv≡提前≡6≡11≡But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
cuv≡提前≡6≡12≡你要為真道打那美好的仗，持定永生。你為此被召，也在許多見證人面前，已經作了那美好的見證。
rsv≡提前≡6≡12≡Fight the good fight of the faith, lay hold on the life eternal, whereunto thou wast called, and didst confess the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.
cuv≡提前≡6≡13≡我在叫萬物生活的神面前，並在向本丟•彼拉多作過那美好見證的基督耶穌面前囑咐你：
rsv≡提前≡6≡13≡I charge thee in the sight of God, who giveth life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed the good confession;
cuv≡提前≡6≡14≡要守這命令，毫不玷污，無可指責，直到我們的主耶穌基督顯現。
rsv≡提前≡6≡14≡that thou keep the commandment, without spot, without reproach, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
cuv≡提前≡6≡15≡到了日期，那可稱頌、獨有權能的萬王之王、萬主之主，
rsv≡提前≡6≡15≡which in its own times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
cuv≡提前≡6≡16≡就是那獨一不死、住在人不能靠近的光裡，是人未曾看見、也是不能看見的，要將他顯明出來。但願尊貴和永遠的權能都歸給他。阿們！
rsv≡提前≡6≡16≡who only hath immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honor and power eternal. Amen.
cuv≡提前≡6≡17≡你要囑咐那些今世富足的人，不要自高，也不要倚靠無定的錢財；只要倚靠那厚賜百物給我們享受的神。
rsv≡提前≡6≡17≡Charge them that are rich in this present world, that they be not highminded, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
cuv≡提前≡6≡18≡又要囑咐他們行善，在好事上富足，甘心施捨，樂意供給（或作：體貼）人，
