\v 3 The reason that I urged you to remain in Ephesus while I traveled to Macedonia was so that you would command certain men not to teach what is different from what we teach.
\v 3 I urge you now, just like I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, that you remain in Ephesus so that you might command certain men not to teach false doctrines.
\v 4 And command them not to listen to old useless stories and endless lists of ancestors, which only cause people to argue with each other. But those things do not promote God's plan—that happens when we believe God.
\s5
\v 5 And the reason that we command people to do these things is so that they will love from a pure heart, and from a good conscience, and from faith that is sincere.
\v 6 Some men have stopped doing these good things; instead, they are now saying useless things.
\v 7 They want to teach about the law, but they do not understand what they are saying. Nevertheless, they insist that what they teach is true.
\v 6 Some people have stopped doing these good things; instead, they are now saying useless things.
\v 7 They want to teach about the law God gave to Moses, but they do not understand what they are saying, nor the things about which they say with confidence.

\v 8 But we know that law is good if someone uses it according to what the law says.
\v 8 But we know that law God gave to Moses is good if someone uses it in the right way.

\v 9 We know that the law is not made to control good people, but to control rebellious people and those who do not honor God, for sinners, and disrespectful persons, for murderers and for those who even murder their own parents.

\v 10 It is made also to control homosexuals and all people who practice improper sexual behavior, to control those who steal others and sell them as slaves, to control liars and false witnesses in courts of law, and to stop whatever is different from our good and healthy teaching.
\v 10 It is made also to control homosexuals and all people who practice improper sexual behavior, to control those who steal others and sell them as slaves, to control liars and false witnesses in courts of law, and to stop whatever is different from our good and healthy teaching.
\v 11 All of this agrees with the wonderful good news that God, whom we praise, has taught us, and that he trusts me to announce to others.

\v 9 We know that God did not give the law to Moses to control a good person, but to control people who act as though there are no laws and who refuse to obey anyone, those who sin and do not honor God, those who do not revere God and who sin, those who refuse to perform rituals that please God and who show no respect for religion, and those who murder their fathers and mothers and other people.
\v 10 God gave it to control homosexuals and people who who are sexually immoral, those who kidnap people and sell them as slaves, Those who are liars and false witnesses in courts of law, and to stop every other action that is contrary to our true teaching.
\v 11 All of this agrees with the wonderful good news that God, whom we praise, gave to me to announce to others.

\v 12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, because he gave me the strength to serve him. He also relies on me to serve him.
\v 13 In past times, I insulted and persecuted the believers. I did violent deeds, but God had mercy on me because I did not believe, and I did not know what I was doing.
\v 14 God was extremely kind to me, for he made me able to believe in Christ Jesus and love him because he united me to him.
\v 12 I am grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord who enabled me to do this work, because he considered that I could be trusted. So he appointed me in order that I would serve him.
\v 13 Formerly I said evil things about him, I caused his people to suffer, and I acted very cruelly toward them. But Christ acted kindly to me since I did not know that I was doing because I did not believe in him.
\v 14 Our Lord kindly did very much for me that I did not deserve, so that I now believe in Christ Jesus and I love him because I belong to him.

\v 15 Everyone should accept this fact, because we can count on it completely: Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners. It is true that I am the worst sinner of all.
\v 16 But because I am the worst sinner, God had mercy on me before many others, so that they would see how patient he is. God is patiently waiting to give everlasting life to those who believe in him.
\v 15 Everyone should completely accept this fact, because we know that it is true: Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinful people so that God would not punish them for their sins. As for me, I consider that I have sinned more than all others.
\v 16 Yet Christ Jesus acted mercifully to me who has sinned worse than all the others in order that he might demonstrate to people that he is perfectly patient with them. He wanted what he did for me to be an example to people who would later believe in him and as a result would live forever.

\v 17 The eternal king cannot be seen, and he cannot die. He alone is God. It is he whom everyone will honor and praise forever and ever. Amen.

\v 18 Timothy, my child, I command you: Remember what certain believers prophesied about you. Do this in order to follow those things as you work hard for the Lord.
\v 19 Trust God and keep a good conscience. Some people have not paid attention to their own consciences. So what has happened to their faith is a disaster.
\v 20 Hymenaeus and Alexander are two men like this. I have handed them over to Satan for him to attack them, so that they may learn not to insult God.
18 Timothy, you are like a son to me. So, based on what someone previously prophesied about you, I am instructing you to strongly oppose those who teach false doctrines. You should oppose them like a soldier fights strongly against those who attack his countrymen.
19 Continue to believe the true teaching and do only what you know to be right! Remember that some people have rejected the true teaching. So what has happened to their faith is a disaster.
20 Among the ones who have done that are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I put in the hands of Satan, in order that when Satan punishes them they may learn not to insult God.
