OrthJBC - I Timothy - 6

6:1  As many avadim as are under the ol (yoke) of slavery let them consider their own adonim as worthy of all kavod, lest the name of Hashem and torateynu (our teaching) suffer chillul Hashem.

6:2  And let the ma'aminim [in Moshiach] that have adonim not disrespect their masters, because their adonim are achim, but let them all the more render service to them because the ones receiving benefit from their sherut hatov are ma'aminim in Moshiach and ahuvim. ON THOSE WHO ARE TRUE ASHIRIM IN MOSHIACH Teach and exhort these things.

6:3  If anyone teaches heterodoxy (a doctrine that has a chiluk or difference) and does not agree with the orthodox Jewish teaching of Yehoshua the Moshiach Adoneinu and with torah conforming to chassidus,

6:4  he has succombed to gaa'vah (conceit), having understood nothing, but having a morbid craving for controversies and disputes over devarim out of which comes kinah (envy), madon (strife), lashon hora (evil speaking), chashadot merusha'im (evil suspicions),

6:5  and constant friction between men corrupted in their minds and having become bereft of haEmes, thinking chassidus to be a means of financial gain.

6:6  But chassidus with tzufrieden-kait (contentment) is great revach (gain, profit).

6:7  For we brought nothing into Olam Hazeh, neither are we able to carry anything out of it,

6:8  but having mazon (food) and begadim (clothes), with these we will be satisfied.

6:9  But the ones desiring to be ashirim (rich men) fall into nissayon (temptation) and into a mashchit (trap--Yirmeyeh 5:26) and into many foolish and destructive ta'avot (lusts) which plunge men into cherem and Avaddon (destruction).

6:10  For the ahavat hakesef (love of money) is the shoresh (root) of kol hara'ot (all evils), which some, craving, were thereby led away from the emunah (of Moshiach) and pierced themselves with many machovim (sorrows). THE GOOD FIGHT OF EMUNAH IN MOSHIACH

6:11  But you, ish haElohim (man of G-d), flee these things. Pursue tzedek, chassidus, emunah, ahavah, savlanut, and anavah.

6:12  Fight the good fight of emunah; lay hold of the Chayyei Olam to which you were called when you made the edut tovah (good witness) before edim rabbim (many witnesses).

6:13  I charge you before Hashem, the one giving Chayyim to all things, and before Moshiach Yehoshua, the one having testified before Pontius Pilate the edut hatovah (good witness),

6:14  I charge you to keep the mitzva [of Moshiach] spotless, irreproachable, until the appearing of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu Yehoshua.

6:15  And this will be made manifest at the right time by hamvorach, Ribbon haYachid, Melech haMelachim and Adon haAdonim.

6:16  To the One who is alone Almavet (immortal), dwelling in Ohr unapproachable, whom no man among bnei Adam saw, neither is able to see, lo hakavod v'hagevurah l'olam va'ed. Omein.

6:17  Charge the ashirim in Olam Hazeh not to walk in gaa'vah (pride) and high mindedness, neither to put their tikvah (hope) in the uncertainty of their riches but on Hashem who richly grants us all things for enjoyment.

6:18  Charge the ashirim to do haTov, to be rich in ma'asim tovim, to demonstrate rochav lev (generosity) and willingness to do gemilus chesed,

6:19  treasuring up for themselves a yesod tov for Olam Habah that they may lay hold of Chayei haEmes.

6:20  O Timotiyos, the pikkadon (deposit) [of Moshiach's torah] entrusted to you, guard, turning away from the profane empty utterances and oppositions of the falsely named [or pseudo-Jewish--1:7] Da'as (Knowledge),

6:21  by which, some, professing, missed the mark concerning the emunah [of Moshiach]. Chesed Hashem be with you.
