4 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

6If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.A Good Minister of Jesus Christ 1Tm.4.6-16Ταῦτα ὑποτιθέμενος τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς καλὸς ἐσῃ διάκονος Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ, ἐντρεφόμενος τοῖς λόγοις τῆς πίστεως καὶ τῆς καλῆς διδασκαλίας ᾗ παρηκολούθηκας·
7Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness; τοὺς δὲ βεβήλους καὶ γραώδεις μύθους παραιτοῦ. γύμναζε δὲ σεαυτὸν πρὸς εὐσέβειαν·
8for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.  ἡ γὰρ σωματικὴ γυμνασία πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐστὶν ὠφέλιμος, ἡ δὲ εὐσέβεια πρὸς πάντα ὠφέλιμός ἐστιν, ἐπαγγελίαν ἐχουσα ζωῆς τῆς νῦν καὶ τῆς μελλούσης.
9The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance. πιστὸς ὁ λόγος καὶ πάσης ἀποδοχῆς ἄξιος·
10For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, especially of those who believe.  εἰς τοῦτο γὰρ κοπιῶμεν καὶ ἀγωνιζόμεθα, ὅτι ἠλπίκαμεν ἐπὶ θεῷ ζῶντι, ὁς ἐστιν σωτὴρ πάντων ἀνθρώπων, μάλιστα πιστῶν.
11Command and teach these things. Παράγγελλε ταῦτα καὶ δίδασκε.
12Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.  μηδείς σου τῆς νεότητος καταφρονείτω, ἀλλὰ τύπος γίνου τῶν πιστῶν ἐν λόγῳ, ἐν ἀναστροφῇ, ἐν ἀγάπῃ, ἐν πίστει, ἐν ἀγνείᾳ.
13Till I come, attend to the public reading of scripture, to preaching, to teaching. ἑως ἐρχομαι πρόσεχε τῇ ἀναγνώσει, τῇ παρακλήσει, τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ.
14Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you. μὴ ἀμέλει τοῦ ἐν σοὶ χαρίσματος, ὃ ἐδόθη σοι διὰ προφητείας μετὰ ἐπιθέσεως τῶν χειρῶν τοῦ πρεσβυτερίου.
15Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress. ταῦτα μελέτα, ἐν τούτοις ἰσθι, ἵνα σου ἡ προκοπὴ φανερὰ ᾖ πᾶσιν.
16Take heed to yourself and to your teaching; hold to that, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.  ἐπεχε σεαυτῷ καὶ τῇ διδασκαλίᾳ· ἐπίμενε αὐτοῖς· τοῦτο γὰρ ποιῶν καὶ σεαυτὸν σώσεις καὶ τοὺς ἀκούοντάς σου.

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
