NLT-Greek Matchup

1Tim 4:1-16

NLT | Greek NT | Matchup | Interlinear | Reverse-Interlinear

4:1 Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith ; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons . 2 These people are hypocrites and liars , and their consciences are dead . * 3 They will say it is wrong to be married and wrong to eat certain foods . But God created those foods to be eaten with thanks by faithful people who know the truth . 4 Since everything God created is good , we should not reject any of it but receive it with thanks . 5 For we know it is made acceptable * by the word of God and prayer . 6 If you explain these things to the brothers and sisters , * Timothy , you will be a worthy servant of Christ Jesus , one who is nourished by the message of faith and the good teaching you have followed . 7 Do not waste time arguing over godless ideas and old wives' tales . Instead , train yourself to be godly . 8 “ Physical training is good , but training for godliness is much better , promising benefits in this life and in the life to come . ” 9 This is a trustworthy saying , and everyone should accept it . 10 This is why we work hard and continue to struggle , * for our hope is in the living God , who is the Savior of all people and particularly of all believers . 11 Teach these things and insist that everyone learn them . 12 Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young . Be an example to all believers in what you say , in the way you live , in your love , your faith , and your purity . 13 Until I get there , focus on reading the Scriptures to the church , encouraging the believers , and teaching them . 14 Do not neglect the spiritual gift you received through the prophecy spoken over you when the elders of the church laid their hands on you . 15 Give your complete attention to these matters . Throw yourself into your tasks so that everyone will see your progress . 16 Keep a close watch on how you live and on your teaching . Stay true to what is right for the sake of your own salvation and the salvation of those who hear you .

1 τὸ δὲ πνεῦμα ῥητῶς λέγει ὅτι ἐν ὑστέροις καιροῖς ἀποστήσονταί τινες τῆς πίστεως , προσέχοντες πνεύμασι πλάνοις καὶ διδασκαλίαις δαιμονίων · 2 ἐν ὑποκρίσει ψευδολόγων , κεκαυστηριασμένων τὴν ἰδίαν συνείδησιν · 3 κωλυόντων γαμεῖν ἀπέχεσθαι βρωμάτων · ἃ ὁ θεὸς ἔκτισεν εἰς μετάλημψιν μετὰ εὐχαριστίας τοῖς πιστοῖς καὶ ἐπεγνωκόσι τὴν ἀλήθειαν . 4 ὅτι πᾶν κτίσμα θεοῦ καλόν , καὶ οὐδὲν ἀπόβλητον μετὰ εὐχαριστίας λαμβανόμενον · 5 ἁγιάζεται γὰρ διὰ λόγου θεοῦ καὶ ἐντεύξεως . 6 ταῦτα ὑποτιθέμενος τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς , καλὸς ἔσῃ διάκονος Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ , ἐντρεφόμενος τοῖς λόγοις τῆς πίστεως καὶ τῆς καλῆς διδασκαλίας ᾗ παρηκολούθηκας · 7 τοὺς δὲ βεβήλους καὶ γραώδεις μύθους παραιτοῦ . γύμναζε δέ , σεαυτὸν πρὸς εὐσέβειαν · 8 ἡ γὰρ σωματικὴ γυμνασία πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐστὶν ὠφέλιμος , ἡ δὲ εὐσέβεια πρὸς πάντα ὠφέλιμός ἐστιν , ἐπαγγελίαν ἔχουσα ζωῆς τῆς νῦν καὶ τῆς μελλούσης . 9 πιστὸς ὁ λόγος , καὶ πάσης ἀποδοχῆς ἄξιος · 10 εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ κοπιῶμεν καὶ [ ἀγωνιζόμεθα , ] 11 ὅτι ἠλπίκαμεν ἐπὶ θεῷ ζῶντι , ὅς ἐστιν σωτὴρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων μάλιστα πιστῶν . 11 παράγγελλε ταῦτα καὶ δίδασκε . 12 μηδείς σου τῆς νεότητος καταφρονείτω · ἀλλὰ τύπος γίνου τῶν πιστῶν ἐν λόγῳ , ἐν ἀναστροφῇ , ἐν ἀγάπῃ , ἐν πίστει , ἐν ἁγνείᾳ . 13 ἕως ἔρχομαι , πρόσεχε τῇ ἀναγνώσει , τῇ παρακλήσει , τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ . 14 μὴ ἀμέλει τοῦ ἐν σοὶ χαρίσματος ὃ ἐδόθη σοι διὰ προφητείας μετὰ ἐπιθέσεως τῶν χειρῶν τοῦ πρεσβυτερίου . 15 ταῦτα μελέτα : ἐν τούτοις ἴσθι ἵνα σου ἡ προκοπὴ φανερὰ ᾖ πᾶσιν . 16 ἔπεχε σεαυτῷ καὶ τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ · ἐπίμενε αὐτοῖς τοῦτο γὰρ ποιῶν καὶ σεαυτὸν σώσεις καὶ τοὺς ἀκούοντάς σου .
