¹Let as many as are servants under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine be not blasphemed.

¹Sa kodola kai si slugi trobul te avel le penge gazdange baro respektimos, saxke khonik te na mothol nasulimos pa anav le Devlesko ai pa so sicharas.

²And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but let them serve them the rather, because they that partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. These things teach and exhort.

²Le slugi kai lenge gazda pachanpe ando Del, trobul te avel le respektimos lenge, ke lenge phral si; ai trobul te podain le mai mishto, ke kodola kai si podaime lendar pachan pe ando Del ai drago sas le. So trobul te sichares ai te mothos.

³If any man teacheth a different doctrine, and consenteth not to sound words, [even] the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;

³Te sicharela vari kon aver diela, ke so sicharen tume, ai te na pachalpe andel chache vorbi le Jesus Kristoske, ai ando sicharimos amare pachamasko;

⁴he is puffed up, knowing nothing, but doting about questionings and disputes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,

⁴Kodo manush si baro barimatango, ai chi zhanel kanchi, ai ande leste si o naswalimos te tsipil, ai te xalpe andal vorbi, ai kotsar avel le zhaluzi, le chingara, kai maren mui, kai si ginduria chorhe pe iek kavreste,

⁵wranglings of men corrupted in mind and bereft of the truth, supposing that godliness is a way of gain.

⁵ai kerdiol divanuria kai chi mai getonpe mashkar le manush kai ma nai le e goji vorta, ai chi mai zhanen o chachimos. Ai gindin ke le pachamasa sa barvalos.

⁶But godliness with contentment is great gain:

⁶Ke chaches ke o pachamos baro barvalimos si le manusheske, kai mishto leske so sa si les.

⁷for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out;

⁷Ke chaches chi andiam kanchi ande kadia lumia, ai nashti angeras kanchi.

⁸but having food and covering we shall be therewith content.

⁸Numa te si ame o xaben ai le tsalia, kodia si dosta amenge.

⁹But they that are minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown men in destruction and perdition.

⁹Numa kodola kai mangen te barvalon, peren ande zumaimos ai line le ande atsaimos katar but dieli bi malade, ai chorhe kai ingeren le manushen te xasavon.

¹⁰For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

¹⁰Ke e dragostia le lovenge si kai ingerel ka but nasulimos, ke uni manush kadia de zurales mangen te avel le love kai durile katar o pachamos, ai thode ande penge ile but nekazo.

¹¹But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

¹¹Numa tu, manusha, kai pachas tu ando Del, duriol katar kadala dieli; ai rode o chachimos, besh pasha Del, rode o pachamos, e dragostia, e rhavda, ai o lashimos.

¹²Fight the good fight of the faith, lay hold on the life eternal, whereunto thou wast called, and didst confess the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.

¹²Mar tu o lasho marimos le pachamasko, ai le o traio kai chi mai getolpe; ke O Del akhardia tu te zhanes kado traio kana phendian o shukar divano po cho pachamos angla but marturia.

¹³I charge thee in the sight of God, who giveth life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed the good confession;

¹³Mangav ma tutar angla Del kai del o traio ka sa le dieli, ai angla Jesus Kristo, kai dia peske shukare divanosa pa pesko pachamos angla Pontius Pilate; garav E Vorba le Devleski,

¹⁴that thou keep the commandment, without spot, without reproach, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:

¹⁴ai garav la vuzhi, ai bi doshako zhi ka dies kai amaro Devles O Jesus Kristo avela.

¹⁵which in its own times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

¹⁵Kana avela e vriama O Del kerela kodia diela, wo kai ferdi poronchil, ai kai si swuntsome, o amperato le amperatongo, ai o gazda le gazdengo.

¹⁶who only hath immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom [be] honor and power eternal. Amen.

¹⁶Ke ferdi wo si kai chi merel; ai traiil andek vediara kai khonik nashtil te pashol. Khonik shoxar chi dikhlia les, ai khonik nashti te dikhel les, ai leske te avel o luvudimos ai e putiera ande swako vriama. Amen.

¹⁷Charge them that are rich in this present world, that they be not highminded, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

¹⁷Phen kodolenge kai si le le barvalimata kadala lumiake, te na aven barimatange, ai phen lenge te na thon pengo pachamos andel barvalimata kai nai gor so avela, numa te thon pengo pachamos ando Del, wo kai del ame swako fielo ai but saxke te avas raduime.

¹⁸that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

¹⁸Phen lenge te keren o mishtimos, ai te aven barvale ando mishtimos, ai te zhutin but, ai te hulaven le kolavrensa.

¹⁹laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life which is [life] indeed.

¹⁹Kadia won chidena penge iek lasho ai zuralo barvalimos pe mai angle, ai antunchi avela le o traio o chacho.

²⁰O Timothy, guard that which is committed unto [thee], turning away from the profane babblings and oppositions of the knowledge which is falsely so called;

²⁰O Timote, garav mishto so sas tu dino, ai durios katar le divanuria le bi malade, kodolenge kai keren barimata ande so zhanen, ke kodia sikavel ke chi zhanen.

²¹which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with you.

²¹Uni phende ke zhanenas kadala dieli, ai duri le katar o pachamos. O lashimos le Devlesko te avel tumensa.
