| Douay-Rheims | Greek text (Patriarchal edition, 1904) | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Now the Spirit manifestly saith, that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils, | Τὸ δὲ Πνεῦμα ῥητῶς λέγει ὅτι ἐν ὑστέροις καιροῖς ἀποστήσονταί τινες τῆς πίστεως, προσέχοντες πνεύμασι πλάνοις καὶ διδασκαλίαις δαιμονίων, |
| 2 | Speaking lies in hypocrisy, and having their conscience seared, | ἐν ὑποκρίσει ψευδολόγων, κεκαυστηριασμένων τὴν ἰδίαν συνείδησιν, |
| 3 | Forbidding to marry, to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by the faithful, and by them that have known the truth. | κωλυόντων γαμεῖν, ἀπέχεσθαι βρωμάτων ἃ ὁ Θεὸς ἔκτισεν εἰς μετάληψιν μετὰ εὐχαριστίας τοῖς πιστοῖς καὶ ἐπεγνωκόσι τὴν ἀλήθειαν. |
| 4 | For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be rejected that is received with thanksgiving: | ὅτι πᾶν κτίσμα Θεοῦ καλόν, καὶ οὐδὲν ἀπόβλητον μετὰ εὐχαριστίας λαμβανόμενον· |
| 5 | For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. | ἁγιάζεται γὰρ διὰ λόγου Θεοῦ καὶ ἐντεύξεως. |
| 6 | These things proposing to the brethren, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished up in the words of faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast attained unto. | Ταῦτα ὑποτιθέμενος τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς καλὸς ἔσῃ διάκονος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἐντρεφόμενος τοῖς λόγοις τῆς πίστεως καὶ τῆς καλῆς διδασκαλίας ᾗ παρηκολούθηκας. |
| 7 | But avoid foolish and old wives’ fables: and exercise thyself unto godliness. | τοὺς δὲ βεβήλους καὶ γραώδεις μύθους παραιτοῦ, γύμναζε δὲ σεαυτὸν πρὸς εὐσέβειαν· |
| 8 | For bodily exercise is profitable to little: but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. | ἡ γὰρ σωματικὴ γυμνασία πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐστὶν ὠφέλιμος, ἡ δὲ εὐσέβεια πρὸς πάντα ὠφέλιμός ἐστιν, ἐπαγγελίας ἔχουσα ζωῆς τῆς νῦν καὶ τῆς μελλούσης. |
| 9 | A faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. | πιστὸς ὁ λόγος καὶ πάσης ἀποδοχῆς ἄξιος· |
| 10 | For therefore we labor and are reviled, because we hope in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of the faithful. | εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ καὶ κοπιῶμεν καὶ ὀνειδιζόμεθα, ὅτι ἠλπίκαμεν ἐπὶ Θεῷ ζῶντι, ὅς ἐστι σωτὴρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων, μάλιστα πιστῶν. |
| 11 | These things command and teach. | Παράγγελλε ταῦτα καὶ δίδασκε. |
| 12 | Let no man despise thy youth: but be thou an example of the faithful in word, in conversation, in charity, in faith, in chastity. | μηδείς σου τῆς νεότητος καταφρονείτω, ἀλλὰ τύπος γίνου τῶν πιστῶν ἐν λόγῳ, ἐν ἀναστροφῇ, ἐν ἀγάπῃ, ἐν πνεύματι, ἐν πίστει, ἐν ἁγνείᾳ. |
| 13 | Till I come, attend unto reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine. | ἕως ἔρχομαι πρόσεχε τῇ ἀναγνώσει, τῇ παρακλήσει, τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ. |
| 14 | Neglect not the grace that is in thee, which was given thee by prophesy, with imposition of the hands of the priesthood. | μὴ ἀμέλει τοῦ ἐν σοὶ χαρίσματος, ὃ ἐδόθη σοι διὰ προφητείας μετὰ ἐπιθέσεως τῶν χειρῶν τοῦ πρεσβυτερίου. |
| 15 | Meditate upon these things, be wholly in these things: that thy profiting may be manifest to all. | ταῦτα μελέτα, ἐν τούτοις ἴσθι, ἵνα σου ἡ προκοπὴ φανερὰ ᾖ ἐν πᾶσιν. |
| 16 | Take heed to thyself and to doctrine: be earnest in them. For in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that hear thee. | ἔπεχε σεαυτῷ καὶ τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ, ἐπίμενε αὐτοῖς· τοῦτο γὰρ ποιῶν καὶ σεαυτὸν σώσεις καὶ τοὺς ἀκούοντάς σου. |
