# the truthful words of our Lord Jesus Christ
The word "truthful" is a figure of speech from the Greek word for "healthy."
# truthful words
The word translated as "truthful" comes from the term "healthy" here, and it is a dead metaphor for true, trustworthy, and morally good. See how you translated the word "healthy" in [1 Timothy 1:10](../01/10.md). Alternate translation: "trustworthy words" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphordead]])
