Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, 1 Timothy
Third Edition 1913
R. F. Weymouth
Book 54 1 Timothy
001:001 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God our Saviour and Christ Jesus our hope:
001:002 To Timothy, my own true son in the faith. May grace,
mercy and peace be granted to you from God the Father and
Christ Jesus our Lord.
001:003 When I was on my journey to Macedonia I begged you to remain
on in Ephesus that you might remonstrate with certain persons
because of their erroneous teaching
001:004 and the attention they bestow on mere fables and endless pedigrees, such as lead to controversy rather than to a true stewardship for God, which only exists where there is faith. And I make the same request now.
001:005 But the end sought to be secured by exhortation is the love which springs from a pure heart, a clear conscience and a sincere faith.
