Chapter 4
I Ti Rotherha 4:1  Howbeit, the Spirit, expressly saith—that, in later seasons, some will revolt from the faith, giving heed unto seducing spirits, and unto teachings of demons—
I Ti Rotherha 4:2  in hypocrisy, speaking falsehood, [of demons] cauterised in their own conscience,—
I Ti Rotherha 4:3  Forbidding to marry, [commanding] to abstain from foods which, God, created to be received with thanksgiving by them who believe and personally know the truth;
I Ti Rotherha 4:4  Because, every creature of God, is good, and nothing to be cast away, if, with thanksgiving, it be received,—
I Ti Rotherha 4:5  For it is hallowed by the word of God and intercession,
I Ti Rotherha 4:6  These things, submitting to the brethren, thou shall be, a noble, minister of Christ Jesus, nourishing thyself with the words of the faith, and of the noble teaching which thou hast closely studied.
I Ti Rotherha 4:7  But, from the profane and old-wives’ stories, excuse thyself, and be training thyself unto godliness;
I Ti Rotherha 4:8  For, the bodily training, for little, is profitable, whereas, godliness, for all things is profitable,—having, promise, of life—the present and the coming.
I Ti Rotherha 4:9  Faithful, the saying! and, of all acceptance, worthy;
I Ti Rotherha 4:10  For, to this end, are we toiling and contending, because we have set our hope on a Living God, Who is Saviour of all men—specially, of such as believe.
I Ti Rotherha 4:11  Be giving these things in charge, and be teaching:—
I Ti Rotherha 4:12  Let, no one, despise, thy youth, but, an ensample, become thou of the faithful,—in discourse, in behaviour, in love, in faith, in chastity.
I Ti Rotherha 4:13  While I am coming, be giving heed—to the reading, to the exhorting, to the teaching:
I Ti Rotherha 4:14  Be not careless of the gift of favour, that is in thee, which was given thee through means of prophesying, along with a laying on of the hands of the eldership.
I Ti Rotherha 4:15  These things, be thy care, in these things, be thou, that, thine advancement, may be, manifest, unto all:
I Ti Rotherha 4:16  Be giving heed to thyself, and to thy teaching,—abide still in them; for, this doing, both, thyself, shalt thou save, and them that hearken to thee.
