New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26) |

|
4 1 | THE SPIRIT SAYS EXPRESSLY that in after times some will desert from the faith and give their minds to subversive doctrines inspired by devils, | Prediction of Apostasy 1Tm.4.1-5 | Τὸ δὲ πνεῦμα ῥητῶς λέγει ὅτι ἐν ὑστέροις καιροῖς ἀποστήσονταί τινες τῆς πίστεως, προσέχοντες πνεύμασιν πλάνοις καὶ διδασκαλίαις δαιμονίων, |
|
2 | through the specious falsehoods of men whose own conscience is branded with the devil's sign. | | ἐν ὑποκρίσει ψευδολόγων, κεκαυστηριασμένων τὴν ἰδίαν συνείδησιν, |
|
3 | They forbid marriage and inculcate abstinence from certain foods, though God created them to be enjoyed with thanksgiving by believers who have inward knowledge of the truth. | | κωλυόντων γαμεῖν, ἀπέχεσθαι βρωμάτων ἂ ὁ θεὸς ἐκτισεν εἰς μετάλημψιν μετὰ εὐχαριστίας τοῖς πιστοῖς καὶ ἐπεγνωκόσι τὴν ἀλήθειαν. |
|
4 | For everything that God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected when it is taken with thanksgiving, | | ὁτι πᾶν κτίσμα θεοῦ καλόν, καὶ οὐδὲν ἀπόβλητον μετὰ εὐχαριστίας λαμβανόμενον, |
|
5 | since it is hallowed by God's own word and by prayer.
| | ἀγιάζεται γὰρ διὰ λόγου θεοῦ καὶ ἐντεύξεως. |
