OrthJBC - I Timothy - 1

1:1  From Sha'ul, a Shliach of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua according to the mitzva of Hashem Moshieynu and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua tikvateynu.

1:2  To Timotiyos [Act 16:1], a true born ben baEmunah (son in the faith). Chesed Hashem, Rachamim Hashem, and Shalom Hashem from Elohim Avinu and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu. WARNING AGAINST TORAH ACHERET

1:3  Even as I urged you to remain in Ephesus while I was going into Macedonia so that you might enjoin the mitzva (command) on certain persons not to teach heterodoxy

1:4  nor to focus on aggadah [Titus 1:14] and endless toledot (genealogies) which give rise to useless speculations in contrast to Hashem's immun (training) in emunah.

1:5  But the tachlis (purpose) of the mitzva (command [1:3] is ahavah (love) out of a lev tahor (pure heart) and a matzpun tahor (clean conscience) and emunah (faith) without tzevi'ut (hypocrisy).

1:6  Some people [1:3] have missed the mark and deviated from these things to hevel (vanity), to divrei havohu (words of emptiness).

1:7  Wanting to be rabbonim of the Torah, they understand neither what they are talking about nor the things about which they so confidently make doctrinal assertions.

1:8  But we know that the Torah is beneficial if anyone uses it according to the Torah-true manner of Moshiach's Judaism.

1:9  Knowing this: that the Torah is not intended for the anshei tzedek but for the mufkarim (lawless) and the poshe'im (the ones transgressing/ rebelling), those without yirat Shamayim and chatta'im (sinners), osei to'eva (doers of abomination), nevalah (profane), rotzchei av va'em (murderers of father and mother--Shemot 21:15), and meratzchim (murderers)

1:10  zanayim (fornicators), shochvei zachar (homosexuals), gonvei nefesh (kidnapper/slave dealers--Shemot 21:16) shakranim (liars), nishba'im lasheker (perjurers) and whatever else opposes Moshiach's orthodox Jewish teaching

1:11  according to the Besuras HaGeulah kavod haElohim ham'vorach (the Good News of Redemption of the glory of the blessed G-d) with which I was entrusted. MODEH ANI FOR RACHAMIM IN THE RABBANUT OF MOSHIACH

1:12  Modeh ani (I give thanks) to the one having empowered me, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu, because he considered me chayil [worthy, Ruth 2:1; Mishle 31:10], having appointed me to the rabbanut of Moshiach (Messianic ministry).

1:13  Previously being one guilty of chillul Hashem (blasphemy), redifah (persecution), and [religious] terrorism; fort (nevertheless), I received rachamim (mercy), because I acted in ignorance in the absence of emunah.

1:14  And the Chen vaChesed Adoneinu super-abounded with emunah and ahavah in Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua.

1:15  Trustworthy is the dvar Emes and worthy of all acceptance, that Moshiach Yehoshua came into the world to rescue chote'im, of whom I am the foremost.

1:16  But because of this, I received rachamim that in me, the foremost, Moshiach Yehoshua might display all savlanut (long suffering/patience), making me a mofet (model) to the ones about to have bittachon (trust) in Moshiach, resulting in Chayyei Olam.

1:17  Now to haMelech haOlamim, the One who is ein ketz (without end), Whom no eye has seen, Adonoi echad, be honor v'hatiferet mayhaolam v'ad haolam (and glory forever). Omein.

1:18  This mitzva (1:3) I commit to you, beni Timotiyos, according to hanevu'ot (the prophecies--4:14) made previously about you, that by them you might war the good warfare,

1:19  holding emunah and a matzpun tahor (clean conscience), which some persons [1:3], because they pushed aside a matzpun tahor [1:5], have suffered shipwreck in the emunah [of Moshiach].

1:20  Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I handed over to Hasatan, that they might be taught not to commit chillul Hashem.
