1Almal wat as slawe onder ’n juk is, moet hulle eie eienaars alle eer waardig ag, sodat die Naam van God en die leer nie belaster word nie.

Of: diensknegte.

Ὅσοι εἰσὶν ὑπὸ ζυγὸν δοῦλοι, τοὺς ἰδίους δεσπότας πάσης τιμῆς ἀξίους ἡγείσθωσαν, ἵνα μὴ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἡ διδασκαλία βλασφημῆται.All who are under the yoke of slavery should regard their masters as fully worthy of honor, so that God’s name and our teaching will not be discredited. 2En dié wat gelowige eienaars het, moet hulle nie minag omdat hulle broers is nie, maar moet hulle eerder dien, omdat dié wat die weldaad ontvang, gelowiges en geliefdes is. Leer en vermaan hierdie dinge.

Of: omdat dié wat hulle op weldadigheid toelê, gelowiges en geliefdes is.

οἱ δὲ πιστοὺς ἔχοντες δεσπότας μὴ καταφρονείτωσαν, ὅτι ἀδελφοί εἰσιν· ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον δουλευέτωσαν, ὅτι πιστοί εἰσιν καὶ ἀγαπητοὶ οἱ τῆς εὐεργεσίας ἀντιλαμβανόμενοι. Ταῦτα δίδασκε καὶ παρακάλει.Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.

3As iemand ’n ander leer verkondig en hom nie by die gesonde woorde, dié van ons Here Jesus Christus, en by die leer wat met godsvrug ooreenstem, aansluit nie,εἴ τις ἑτεροδιδασκαλεῖ καὶ μὴ προσέρχεται ὑγιαίνουσι λόγοις, τοῖς τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, καὶ τῇ κατʼ εὐσέβειαν διδασκαλίᾳ,If anyone teaches another doctrine and disagrees with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and with godly teaching, 4is hy verwaand en verstaan hy niks, maar is hy sieklik behep met twisvrae en woordestryde, waaruit afguns, twis, lasteringe, bose vermoedens ontstaan,

Letterlik: maar is siek oor twisvrae en woordestryde.

τετύφωται, μηδὲν ἐπιστάμενος, ἀλλὰ νοσῶν περὶ ζητήσεις καὶ λογομαχίας, ἐξ ὧν γίνεται φθόνος, ἔρις, βλασφημίαι, ὑπόνοιαι πονηραί,he is conceited and understands nothing. Instead, he has an unhealthy interest in controversies and disputes about words, out of which come envy, strife, abusive talk, evil suspicions, 5voortdurende wrywings van mense wat in hulle verstand verdorwe en van die waarheid beroof is, wat meen dat godsvrug ’n bron van wins is.

Sommige manuskripte lees: wat meen dat godsvrug ’n bron van wins is. Onttrek jou aan sulke mense.

διαπαρατριβαὶ διεφθαρμένων ἀνθρώπων τὸν νοῦν καὶ ἀπεστερημένων τῆς ἀληθείας, νομιζόντων πορισμὸν εἶναι τὴν ⸀εὐσέβειαν.and constant friction between men of depraved mind who are devoid of the truth. These men regard godliness as a means of gain.

6Godsvrug met tevredenheid is egter ’n groot bron van wins,ἔστιν δὲ πορισμὸς μέγας ἡ εὐσέβεια μετὰ αὐταρκείας·Of course, godliness with contentment is great gain. 7want ons het niks in die wêreld ingebring nie, omdat ons ook niks daaruit kan uitdra nie;

Sommige manuskripte lees: want ons het niks in die wêreld ingebring nie; dit is duidelik dat ons ook niks daaruit kan uitdra nie.

οὐδὲν γὰρ εἰσηνέγκαμεν εἰς τὸν κόσμον, ⸀ὅτι οὐδὲ ἐξενεγκεῖν τι δυνάμεθα·For we brought nothing into the world, so we cannot carry anything out of it. 8Maar as ons voedsel en bedekking het, sal ons daarmee tevrede wees.ἔχοντες δὲ διατροφὰς καὶ σκεπάσματα, τούτοις ἀρκεσθησόμεθα.But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these. 9Maar dié wat ryk wil word, val in versoeking en ’n strik en baie dwase en skadelike begeertes, wat die mense in ondergang en verderf laat wegsink;οἱ δὲ βουλόμενοι πλουτεῖν ἐμπίπτουσιν εἰς πειρασμὸν καὶ παγίδα καὶ ἐπιθυμίας πολλὰς ἀνοήτους καὶ βλαβεράς, αἵτινες βυθίζουσι τοὺς ἀνθρώπους εἰς ὄλεθρον καὶ ἀπώλειαν·Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. 10want ’n wortel van alle kwaad is die geldgierigheid, waarna sommige gestreef en van die geloof afgedwaal het en hulleself met baie smarte deurboor het.

Of: die wortel van alle kwaad.

ῥίζα γὰρ πάντων τῶν κακῶν ἐστιν ἡ φιλαργυρία, ἧς τινες ὀρεγόμενοι ἀπεπλανήθησαν ἀπὸ τῆς πίστεως καὶ ἑαυτοὺς περιέπειραν ὀδύναις πολλαῖς.For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

11Maar jy, o mens van God, vlug van hierdie dinge; jaag egter geregtigheid na, godsvrug, geloof, liefde, volharding, sagmoedigheid.Σὺ δέ, ὦ ἄνθρωπε ⸀θεοῦ, ταῦτα φεῦγε· δίωκε δὲ δικαιοσύνην, εὐσέβειαν, πίστιν, ἀγάπην, ὑπομονήν, ⸀πραϋπαθίαν.But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness. 12Stry die goeie stryd van die geloof, gryp die ewige lewe aan, waartoe jy geroep is en die goeie belydenis voor baie getuies bely het.ἀγωνίζου τὸν καλὸν ἀγῶνα τῆς πίστεως, ἐπιλαβοῦ τῆς αἰωνίου ζωῆς, εἰς ἣν ἐκλήθης καὶ ὡμολόγησας τὴν καλὴν ὁμολογίαν ἐνώπιον πολλῶν μαρτύρων.Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession before many witnesses. 13Ek beveel jou voor God, wat aan alles die lewe gee, en Christus Jesus, wat voor Pontius Pilatus die goeie belydenis betuig het,

Of: wat in die tyd van Pontius Pilatus die goeie belydenis betuig het.

παραγγέλλω σοι ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ ⸀ζῳογονοῦντος τὰ πάντα καὶ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ μαρτυρήσαντος ἐπὶ Ποντίου Πιλάτου τὴν καλὴν ὁμολογίαν,I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who made the good confession in His testimony before Pontius Pilate: 14dat jy die gebod vlekkeloos en onberispelik moet bewaar tot by die verskyning van ons Here Jesus Christus,τηρῆσαί σε τὴν ἐντολὴν ἄσπιλον ἀνεπίλημπτον μέχρι τῆς ἐπιφανείας τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ,Keep this commandment without stain or reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15wat Hy op Sy eie tye sal toon, die geseënde en enige Heerser, die Koning van die wat as konings regeer en Here van die wat as here heers,ἣν καιροῖς ἰδίοις δείξει ὁ μακάριος καὶ μόνος δυνάστης, ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν βασιλευόντων καὶ κύριος τῶν κυριευόντων,which the blessed and only Sovereign One—the King of kings and Lord of lords—will bring about in His own time. 16wat alleen onsterflikheid besit, wat in ’n ontoeganklike lig woon, wat geen mens gesien het of kan sien nie; aan Hom eer en ewige mag. Amen.ὁ μόνος ἔχων ἀθανασίαν, φῶς οἰκῶν ἀπρόσιτον, ὃν εἶδεν οὐδεὶς ἀνθρώπων οὐδὲ ἰδεῖν δύναται· ᾧ τιμὴ καὶ κράτος αἰώνιον· ἀμήν.He alone is immortal and dwells in unapproachable light. No one has ever seen Him, nor can anyone see Him. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.

17Beveel die rykes in die teenwoordige eeu om nie hoogmoedig te wees nie en nie hulle hoop op die onsekerheid van rykdom te vestig nie, maar op God, wat alles ryklik aan ons gee om te geniet,

Sommige manuskripte lees: maar op die lewende God, wat alles ryklik aan ons gee om te geniet.

Τοῖς πλουσίοις ἐν τῷ νῦν αἰῶνι παράγγελλε μὴ ὑψηλοφρονεῖν μηδὲ ἠλπικέναι ἐπὶ πλούτου ἀδηλότητι, ἀλλʼ ⸀ἐπὶ ⸀θεῷ τῷ παρέχοντι ἡμῖν πάντα πλουσίως εἰς ἀπόλαυσιν,Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be conceited and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of wealth, but in God, who richly provides all things for us to enjoy. 18om goed te doen, ryk te wees in goeie werke, vrygewig te wees en bereid om te deel,ἀγαθοεργεῖν, πλουτεῖν ἐν ἔργοις καλοῖς, εὐμεταδότους εἶναι, κοινωνικούς,Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share, 19en so vir hulleself ’n goeie fondament vir die toekoms op te gaar, sodat hulle die werklike lewe kan aangryp.

Sommige manuskripte lees: sodat hulle die ewige lewe kan aangryp.

ἀποθησαυρίζοντας ἑαυτοῖς θεμέλιον καλὸν εἰς τὸ μέλλον, ἵνα ἐπιλάβωνται τῆς ⸀ὄντως ζωῆς.treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.

20O Timoteus, bewaar wat aan jou toevertrou is, en vermy die onheilige, leë praatjies en die teenstellings van die kennis wat valslik so genoem word,

Letterlik: bewaar die pand.

Ὦ Τιμόθεε, τὴν παραθήκην φύλαξον, ἐκτρεπόμενος τὰς βεβήλους κενοφωνίας καὶ ἀντιθέσεις τῆς ψευδωνύμου γνώσεως,O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid irreverent, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of so-called “knowledge,” 21wat sommige bely het en daardeur ten opsigte van die geloof die doel gemis het. Die genade is met julle.

Sommige manuskripte lees: ... Die genade is met jou. Amen.

ἥν τινες ἐπαγγελλόμενοι περὶ τὴν πίστιν ἠστόχησαν. Ἡ χάρις ⸂μεθʼ ὑμῶν⸃.which some have professed and thus swerved away from the faith. Grace be with you all.
