King James Version
Now the Spirit expressly states
that in later
times some will
abandon
the faith to follow
deceitful
spirits and the
teachings
of demons,
Now the Spirit speaketh
expressly ,
that in the
latter
times some shall
depart
from
the faith ,
giving
heed
to seducing
spirits ,
and doctrines
of devils;
influenced
by
the
hypocrisy of
liars,
whose
consciences
are
seared with a hot iron .
Speaking
lies
in
hypocrisy ;
having
their
conscience
seared with a hot iron ;
They
will
prohibit
marriage
and require
abstinence
from certain
foods
that
God has
created to be received with thanksgiving by
those
who
believe and know the truth.
Forbidding
to
marry,
and commanding
to
abstain
from meats,
which
God hath
created to be received with thanksgiving of
them
which
believe and know the truth.
For every creation
of God is good, and nothing that
is
received with thanksgiving should
be
rejected,
For every creature
of God is good, and nothing to
be
refused,
if
it
be
received with thanksgiving :
because
it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
For
it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
By
pointing
out
these things to
the
brothers
, you
will
be a good servant
of Christ
Jesus, nourished by
the words of faith and sound
instruction
that
you
have
followed
.
If
thou
put
the
brethren
in
remembrance
of
these things, thou
shalt
be a good minister
of Jesus Christ
, nourished up
in
the words of faith and of
good
doctrine,
whereunto
thou
hast
attained
.
But reject
irreverent,
silly
myths.
Instead
, train
yourself
for
godliness.
But refuse
profane
and
old
wives'
fables
, and
exercise
thyself
rather
unto
godliness.
For physical
exercise is
of
limited
value,
but godliness is valuable
in
every
way
, holding
promise for
the present
life and for
the
one
to come.
For bodily
exercise profiteth
little:
but godliness is profitable
unto
all
things
, having
promise of
the life that
now
is,
and of
that
which
is
to come.
This is a trustworthy
saying ,
worthy of full
acceptance
.
This is a faithful
saying and
worthy of all
acceptation
.
To
this
end
we labor
and strive
, because we have
set
our
hope
on
the living God, who is the Savior
of everyone
, and
especially
of those who
believe.
For
therefore
we both
labour
and suffer
reproach
, because we trust
in
the living God, who is the Saviour
of all
men
, specially
of those that
believe.
Command and teach these
things
.
These
things
command and teach.
Let no one
despise your
youth ,
but set
an example for
the believers in speech
, in conduct
, in love
, in faith, in purity.
Let no man
despise thy
youth ;
but be
thou
an example of
the believers ,
in word
, in conversation
, in charity
, in spirit,
in
faith, in purity.
Until
I come, devote
yourself
to the
public
reading of
Scripture
, to exhortation, and
to teaching
.
Till
I come, give
attendance
to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine
.
Do
not
neglect the gift that is in you
, which was given you
through
the
prophecy spoken
over
you
at
the laying on of the hands of the elders
.
Neglect not
the gift that is in thee
, which was given thee
by
prophecy ,
with
the laying on of the hands of the presbytery
.
Be
diligent
in
these matters
and
absorbed
in
them ,
so
that your
progress
will
be
evident
to all.
Meditate
upon
these things;
give
thyself
wholly
to
them ;
that thy
profiting
may
appear
to all.
Pay
close
attention
to
your
life
and to
your
teaching.
Persevere
in these
things,
for by
so
doing you
will
save
both yourself
and those
who
hear you
.
Take
heed
unto
thyself,
and unto
the
doctrine;
continue
in them:
for in
doing this
thou
shalt
both save
thyself,
and them
that
hear thee
.
