1 Timothy 6
Maori Bible
6 Kiia iho e nga pononga whai rangatira katoa he mea tika mo o ratou rangatira ake nga honore katoa, kei korerotia kinotia te ingoa o te Atua me tana ako.
2 Kaua era i nga rangatira whakapono e whakahawea ki a ratou, no te mea he teina ratou; engari kia nui rawa te mahi, no te mea e whakapono ana ratou, e arohaina ana, e uru ngatahi ana ki te mahi pai. Me whakaako enei mea e koe, me whakahau atu.
3 Ki te whakaako ke tetahi, ki te kore e tahuri ki nga kupu ora, ki nga kupu a to tatou Ariki, a Ihu Karaiti, ki te ako ano hoki e rite ai te karakia pai,
4 E whakakake ana ia, kahore ona matauranga ki tetahi mea, heoi e hawata ana ki nga uiuinga, ki nga tautohetohenga, no reira nei te hae, te whawhai, nga korero kino, nga whakaaro kino,
5 Nga whakahokihoki kupu a nga tangata ngakau kino, kahore nei he pono i a ratou, e mahara ana ki te karakia pai he huarahi e whiwhi ai ki te taonga.
6 He taonga nui ano ia te karakia pai hui tahi ki te ngakau tatu:
7 Kahore hoki he mea i mauria mai e tatou ki te ao, e kore hoki e ahei te mau atu e tatou tetahi mea.
8 Ki te mea ia he kai ta tatou, he hipoki, ka makona tatou i ena.
9 Ko te hunga ia e hiahia ana kia whai taonga, ka taka ratou ki te whakamatautauranga, ki te mahanga, ki te tini o nga hiahia kuware e raru ai, e totohu ai nga tangata ki te whakangaromanga, a huna iho.
10 He putake hoki no nga kino katoa te aroha ki te moni; he minamina ki tenei i kotiti ke ai etahi i te whakapono, a werohia putia iho ratou e nga mamae maha.
11 Ko koe ia, e ta te Atua tangata, oma atu i enei; whaia te tika, te karakia pai, te whakapono, te aroha, te manawanui, te ngakau mahaki.
12 Whawhaitia te whawhai pai o te whakapono, hopukia atu te ora tonu, ko te mea hoki tena i karangatia ai koe, a whakaaetia ana e koe te whakaaetanga pai i te aroaro o nga kaititiro tokomaha.
13 Ko taku ako atu tenei ki a koe i te aroaro o te Atua, nana nei nga mea katoa i whai ora ai, o Karaiti Ihu ano hoki, nana nei i whakapuaki te whakaaetanga pai i te aroaro o Ponotio Pirato;
14 Puritia tenei ture, kei whai koha, kei whai he, a taea noatia te putanga mai o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti:
15 Mana e whakakite mai a ona ake wa, ko ia anake nei hoki te Mea kaha, te Mea koa, te Kingi o nga kingi, te Ariki o nga ariki;
16 Ko ia anake e kore e mate, e noho ana ia i te marama e kore e taea atu e tetahi; kahore ia i kitea e tetahi tangata, kahore ano hoki e ahei kia kitea: waiho atu i a ia te honore me te kaha ake ake. Amine.
17 Akona te hunga i nga taonga o tenei ao kia kaua e whakakake te ngakau, kia kaua e whakawhirinaki ki nga taonga pahuhu noa, engari ki te Atua ora, ko ia hoki hei homai nui i nga mea pai katoa hei mea ma tatou;
18 Kia mahi ratou i te pai, kia hua a ratou mahi pai, kia tatanga ki te ohaoha, ki te whakawhiwhi i etahi;
19 Me te whakatakoto ano he kaupapa pai mo ratou mo nga ra ki mua, kia mau a ringa ai ratou ki te ora, ara ki te ora tuturu.
20 E Timoti, tiakina te mea kua tukua na ki a koe; tahuri ke i nga korero whakarihariha, i nga kupu teka noa, i nga whakaputanga ketanga a te mea e tekaia nei he matauranga:
21 Kua waiho nei hei tikanga ma etahi, a he ake ratou ki te whakapono. Kia tau te aroha noa ki a koe. Amine.
1 Timothy 6
New International Version
1 Timothy 6
New International Version
6 All who are under the yoke of slavery should consider their masters worthy of full respect,(A) so that God’s name and our teaching may not be slandered.(B) 2 Those who have believing masters should not show them disrespect just because they are fellow believers.(C) Instead, they should serve them even better because their masters are dear to them as fellow believers and are devoted to the welfare[a] of their slaves.
False Teachers and the Love of Money
These are the things you are to teach and insist on.(D) 3 If anyone teaches otherwise(E) and does not agree to the sound instruction(F) of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, 4 they are conceited(G) and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words(H) that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions 5 and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth(I) and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
6 But godliness with contentment(J) is great gain.(K) 7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.(L) 8 But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.(M) 9 Those who want to get rich(N) fall into temptation and a trap(O) and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money(P) is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith(Q) and pierced themselves with many griefs.(R)
Final Charge to Timothy
11 But you, man of God,(S) flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness,(T) faith, love,(U) endurance and gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight(V) of the faith. Take hold of(W) the eternal life(X) to which you were called when you made your good confession(Y) in the presence of many witnesses. 13 In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate(Z) made the good confession,(AA) I charge you(AB) 14 to keep this command without spot or blame(AC) until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,(AD) 15 which God will bring about in his own time(AE)—God, the blessed(AF) and only Ruler,(AG) the King of kings and Lord of lords,(AH) 16 who alone is immortal(AI) and who lives in unapproachable light,(AJ) whom no one has seen or can see.(AK) To him be honor and might forever. Amen.(AL)
17 Command those who are rich(AM) in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth,(AN) which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God,(AO) who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.(AP) 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds,(AQ) and to be generous and willing to share.(AR) 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves(AS) as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of(AT) the life that is truly life.
20 Timothy, guard what has been entrusted(AU) to your care. Turn away from godless chatter(AV) and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge, 21 which some have professed and in so doing have departed from the faith.(AW)
Grace be with you all.(AX)
