| 1st-Timothy 3:1 | This is a faithful saying: if a man seeks the office of an overseer, he desires a good work. | The word [is] faithful: if any one aspires to exercise oversight, he desires a good work. | A faithful saying: if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. | This is a true saying, A man desiring the position of a Bishop has a desire for a good work. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:2 | The overseer therefore must be without reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, modest, hospitable, good at teaching; | The overseer then must be irreproachable, husband of one wife, sober, discreet, decorous, hospitable, apt to teach; | It behoveth therefore a bishop to be blameless, the husband of one wife, sober, prudent, of good behaviour, chaste, given to hospitality, a teacher, | The Bishop, then, is to be a man of good name, the husband of one wife, self-controlled, serious-minded, having respect for order, opening his house freely to guests, a ready teacher; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:3 | not a drinker, not violent, not greedy for money, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous; | not given to excesses from wine, not a striker, but mild, not addicted to contention, not fond of money, | Not given to wine, no striker, but modest, not quarrelsome, not covetous, but | Not quickly moved to wrath or blows, but gentle; no fighter, no lover of money; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:4 | one who rules his own house well, having children in subjection with all reverence; | conducting his own house well, having [his] children in subjection with all gravity; | One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all chastity. | Ruling his house well, having his children under control with all serious behaviour; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:5 | (but if a man doesn't know how to rule his own house, how will he take care of the assembly of God?) | (but if one does not know how to conduct his own house, how shall he take care of the assembly of God?) | But if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God? | (For if a man has not the art of ruling his house, how will he take care of the church of God?) |
| 1st-Timothy 3:6 | not a novice, to avoid being puffed up and falling into the condemnation of the devil. | not a novice, that he may not, being inflated, fall into [the] fault of the devil. | Not a neophyte: lest being puffed up with pride, he fall into the judgment of the devil. | Not one newly taken into the church, for fear that, through his high opinion of himself, he may come into the same sin as the Evil One. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:7 | Moreover he must have good testimony from those who are outside, to avoid falling into reproach and the snare of the devil. | But it is necessary that he should have also a good testimony from those without, that he may fall not into reproach and [the] snare of the devil. | Moreover he must have a good testimony of them who are without: lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. | And he is to have a good name among those outside the church, so that nothing may be said against him and he may not be taken by the designs of the Evil One. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:8 | Deacons, in the same way, must be reverent, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for money; | Ministers, in like manner, grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not seeking gain by base means, | Deacons in like manner chaste, not double tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre: | Deacons, in the same way, are to be serious in their behaviour, not false in word, not given to taking much wine or greatly desiring the wealth of this world; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:9 | holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. | holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience. | Holding the mystery of faith in a pure conscience. | Keeping the secret of the faith in a heart free from sin. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:10 | Let them also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, if they are blameless. | And let these be first proved, then let them minister, being without charge [against them]. | And let these also first be proved: and so let them minister, having no crime. | And let these first be put to the test; then let them become Deacons if there is nothing against them. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:11 | Their wives in the same way must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things. | [The] women in like manner grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things. | The women in like manner chaste, not slanderers, but sober, faithful in all things. | Women are to be serious in behaviour, saying no evil of others, controlling themselves, true in all things. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:12 | Let deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. | Let [the] ministers be husbands of one wife, conducting [their] children and their own houses well: | Let deacons be the husbands of one wife: who rule well their children, and their own houses. | Let Deacons be husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their houses well. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:13 | For those who have served well as deacons gain to themselves a good standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. | for those who shall have ministered well obtain for themselves a good degree, and much boldness in faith which [is] in Christ Jesus. | For they that have ministered well, shall purchase to themselves a good degree, and much confidence in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. | For those who have done good work as Deacons get for themselves a good position and become free from fear in the faith which is in Christ Jesus. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:14 | These things I write to you, hoping to come to you shortly; | These things I write to thee, hoping to come to thee more quickly; | These things I write to thee, hoping that I shall come to thee shortly. | I am writing these things to you, though I am hoping to come to you before long; |
| 1st-Timothy 3:15 | but if I wait long, that you may know how men ought to behave themselves in the house of God, which is the assembly of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. | but if I delay, in order that thou mayest know how one ought to conduct oneself in God's house, which is [the] assembly of [the] living God, [the] pillar and base of the truth. | But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. | But if I am long in coming, this will make clear to you what behaviour is right for men in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and base of what is true. |
| 1st-Timothy 3:16 | Without controversy, the mystery of godliness is great: God was revealed in the flesh, Justified in the spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the nations, Believed on in the world, And received up in glory. | And confessedly the mystery of piety is great. God has been manifested in flesh, has been justified in [the] Spirit, has appeared to angels, has been preached among [the] nations, has been believed on in [the] world, has been received up in glory. | And evidently great is the mystery of godliness, which was manifested in the flesh, was justified in the spirit, appeared unto angels, hath been preached unto the Gentiles, is believed in the world, is taken up in glory. | And without argument, great is the secret of religion: He who was seen in the flesh, who was given God's approval in the spirit, was seen by the angels, of whom the good news was given among the nations, in whom the world had faith, who was taken up in glory. |
