King James Version
AFR DVK
1
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;
Nou spreek die Gees uitdruklik, dat in die latere tye sommige van die geloof sal afvallig word, en hulle oorgee aan verleidende geeste, en leringe van duiwels;
2
Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
Spreekende leuens in geveinsdheid; hebbende hulle gewete toegeskroei met ‚'n brandyster;
3
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.
Verbiedende om te trou, en beveelende om van voedsel te onthou, wat God geskape het om met dankseggging ontvang te word deur hulle wat glo en die waarheid ken.
4
For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
Want elke skepsel van God is goed, en niks is te verwerp nie, as dit met dankseggging ontvang word:
5
For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
Want dit word geheilig deur die woord van God en gebed.
6
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.
As jy die broers hierdie dinge voorhou, sal jy ‚'n goeie dienaar van Jesus Christus wees, gevoed met die woorde van die geloof en van die goeie leer, waarby jy noukeurig gevolg het.
7
But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself [rather] unto godliness.
Maar verwerp die onheilige en ouwyfiese fabels, en oefen jouself tot godsaligheid.
8
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.
Want liggaamlike oefening is tot weinig nut: maar godsaligheid is tot alle dinge nuttig, hebbende die belofte van die lewe wat nou is, en van dié wat kom.
9
This [is] a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.
Dit is ‚'n getroue woord en waardig om in alle opsigte aangeneem te word.
10
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.
Want hiertoe arbei ons en word gesmaad, omdat ons hoop op die lewende God, wat die Verlosser is van alle mense, veral van hulle wat glo.
11
These things command and teach.
Hierdie dinge beveel en leer.
12
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.
Laat niemand jou jeug verag nie; maar wees ‚'n voorbeeld van die gelowiges, in woord, in wandel, in liefde, in gees, in geloof, in reinheid.
13
Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
Gee aandag aan die lesing, aan die vermaning, aan die leer, totdat ek kom.
14
Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
Verwaarloos nie die gawe wat in jou is nie, wat jou gegee is deur profesie, met die oplegging van die hande van die presbiterskap.
15
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
Bedink hierdie dinge; gee jouself daaraan oor; dat jou vordering in alle dinge openbaar mag wees.
16
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.
Gee ag op jouself, en op die leer; volhard daarin: want in dit doende sal jy beide jouself red, en hulle wat jou hoor.
