not fond of wine, not quarrelsome, not one who makes money by base means; but gentle, not contentious, not covetous;

This I write, tho' I hope to make you a visit in a little time, that in case I am retarded,

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.

who will make use of the hypocrisy of lying teachers. These men's consciences are seared,

But make it your habit to let worldly and old women's stories alone. Continue training yourself for the religious life.

Let no one make little of you because you are young, but be an example to the church in word, in behaviour, in love, in faith, in holy living.

Make use of that grace in you, which was given to you by the word of the prophets, when the rulers of the church put their hands on you.

Be on your guard as to yourself and your teaching. Persevere in these things; for by doing this you will make certain your own salvation and that of your hearers.

But if a widow has children or grandchildren [who are adults], see to it that these first learn to show great respect to their own family [as their religious duty and natural obligation], and to compensate their parents or grandparents [for their upbringing]; for this is acceptable and pleasing in the sight of God.

But if a man makes no provision for those dependent on him, and especially for his own family, he has disowned the faith and is behaving worse than an unbeliever.

Make it a rule not to consider a charge preferred against an elder, unless it is supported by two or three witnesses.

Do not be in a hurry to lay hands on anyone [i.e., to appoint them to office. See 4:14], and do not participate in the sins of other people. [Note: If Timothy failed to carefully determine the qualifications of a prospective elder before appointing him, it would make him partially responsible for any wrongdoing by that elder]. Keep yourself pure [i.e., of involvement in anyone's sins].

No longer, be a water-drinker, but, of a little wine, make use, because of thy stomach and thy, frequent, sicknesses.

let them not treat their christian masters, on pretence of being their brethren, with less respect: but be the more obsequious, because they are believers, and deserve to be belov'd, for the kind provision they make for them. let this be the subject of your instructions, and exhortation.

and incessant conflict between people who are depraved in mind and deprived of truth. They think that godliness is a way to make a profit.

Be contesting the noble contest of the faith, - lay hold of the age-abiding life - unto which thou wast called, and didst make the noble confession before many witnesses.

I charge you before God (who makes all things alive) and in the sight of Christ Jesus (who witnessed the good confession to Pontius Pilate),

which he will make known in his own time, the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of those who reign as kings and Lord of those who rule as lords,

I thank God, whom I serve from mine elders with pure conscience, that without ceasing I make mention of thee in my prayers night and day,

when I call to mind your affliction, it makes me ardently desire the exceeding pleasure I shall have in seeing you:

For God did not give us a spirit [i.e., a disposition] that makes us cowards but one that gives us power and love and self-control.

Guard [with greatest care] and keep unchanged, the treasure [that precious truth] which has been entrusted to you [that is, the good news about salvation through personal faith in Christ Jesus], through [the help of] the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.

Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, a worker having no need to be ashamed, guiding the word of truth along a straight path.

But shun profane and vain babblings; for they will make further advance to ungodliness,

If a man makes himself clean from these, he will be a vessel for honour, made holy, ready for the master's use, ready for every good work.

For it is not right for the Lord's servant to make trouble, but he is to be gentle to all, ready in teaching, putting up with wrong,

and they may yet return to their senses and escape from the toils of the devil, who has caught them to make them do his will.

and will keep up a make-believe of piety and yet live in defiance of its power. Turn away from people of this sort.

Among them are included the men who make their way into private houses and carry off weak women as their prisoners--women who, weighed down by the burden of their sins, are led by ever-changing caprice,

But they will not make further progress, for their lack of understanding will be clear to all, as theirs was also.

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

to make the man of God proficient and equip him for good work of every kind.

Be preaching the word at all times, in every place; make protests, say sharp words, give comfort, with long waiting and teaching;

But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

Make every effort to come to me soon;

But the Lord supported me and gave me strength to make a full statement of the gospel and let all the heathen hear it. I was rescued from the jaws of the lion.

Make haste to come before winter. Eubulus and Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brothers greet you.

From Paul, a servant of God, and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, charged to strengthen the faith of God's Chosen People, and their knowledge of that Truth which makes for godliness, .

Because an overseer is God's servant manager, he must be blameless. He must not be arrogant or irritable. He must not drink too much, be a violent person, or make money in shameful ways.

They must be silenced, because they are the kind of people who ruin whole families by teaching what they should not teach in order to make money in a shameful way.

and that statement is true. Therefore correct them rigorously, to make them have a healthy faith,

so as to make them sound in the faith, not giving heed to Jewish myths and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.

they make a profession of knowing God; but in fact they deny him, being execrably incredulous, and utter strangers to all virtue.

that they may make the young women sober-minded, to be lovers of their husbands, lovers of their children,

and above all make your own life a pattern of right conduct, having in your teaching no taint of insincerity, but a serious tone,

bondmen to be subject to their own masters, to make themselves acceptable in everything; not gainsaying;

or steal from them. Instead, they are to show complete and perfect loyalty, so that in every way they may make the teaching about God our Savior more attractive.

Who gave himself for us, so that he might make us free from all wrongdoing, and make for himself a people clean in heart and on fire with good works.

Thus speak, exhort, reprove, with all impressiveness. Let no one make light of your authority.

Make clear to them that they are to put themselves under rulers and authorities, to do what they are ordered, to be ready for every good work,

In grace our Savior God appeared, to make his love for mankind clear.

This is a trustworthy teaching, and I want you to insist on these things, so that those who believe in God may make it their business to do good. All this is right and beneficial to mankind.

When I send Artemas or [perhaps] Tychicus to you, make every effort to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

Make every effort to help Zenas the lawyer and Apollos on their way; make sure they have what they need.

Our own people should also learn to make good deeds a priority when urgent needs arise, so they won't be unproductive.

I give praise to God at all times and make prayer for you,

Still, because of love, in place of an order, I make a request to you, I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner of Christ Jesus:

I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life.

Come, brother, let me make something out of you, in a Christian sense! Cheer my heart as a Christian.

And make a room ready for me; for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be given to you.

in these last days did speak to us in a Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He did make the ages;

And as to the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire;

But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?

For he did not make the angels rulers over the world to come, of which I am writing.

But one somewhere hath borne witness, saying - What is man, that thou shouldst make mention of him? Or the son of man, that thou shouldst put him in charge?

Thou didst make him some little less than messengers, with glory and honour Thou didst crown him, and didst set him over the works of Thy hands,

For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

For he who makes holy and those who are made holy are all of one family; and for this reason it is no shame for him to give them the name of brothers,

Saying, I will give the knowledge of your name to my brothers, I will make a song of praise to you before the church.

Therefore, since [these His] children share in flesh and blood [the physical nature of mankind], He Himself in a similar manner also shared in the same [physical nature, but without sin], so that through [experiencing] death He might make powerless (ineffective, impotent) him who had the power of death—that is, the devil—

Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.

Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you such incredulity as to make you desert the living God.

And to whom did he make an oath that they might not come into his rest? was it not to those who went against his orders?

Therefore, let us make every effort to enter into that rest, in order that no one may fall in the same pattern of disobedience.

Every high priest who is taken from among men is given his position to take care of the interests of men in those things which have to do with God, so that he may make offerings for sins.

Because of this, he must make a sin offering for himself as well as for the people.

Concerning Him we have much to say, and much that it would be difficult to make clear to you, since you have become so dull of apprehension.

For it is impossible that those who have once been enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and been make partakers of the Holy Spirit,

who tasted the goodness of God's word and the powers of the world to come, and then fell away ??6 it is impossible to make them repent afresh, since they crucify the Son of God in their own persons and hold him up to obloquy.

and the powers of the gospel-age, and yet fall away, should be renewed again to repentance: since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God, and make an open example of Him.

For when God made a promise to Abraham, since He could not make a vow by anyone greater, He vowed by Himself,

Saying, Be certain that I will give you my blessing, and make your numbers very great.

For men at all times make their oaths by what is greater; and any argument is ended by the decision of the oath.

So that when it was God's desire to make it specially clear to those who by his word were to have the heritage, that his purpose was fixed, he made it more certain with an oath;

In order that, through means of two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible for God to make himself false, a mighty consolation, we might have, who have fled along to grasp, the fore-lying hope,

Because if the priests are changed, it is necessary to make a change in the law.

(since the law did not make anything [i.e., anyone] perfect), but on the other hand, there is the introduction of a better hope [which did bring perfection through Christ], by which we draw near to God.

And this makes Jesus surety for a superior covenant.

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Who has no need to make offerings for sins every day, like those high priests, first for himself, and then for the people; because he did this once and for ever when he made an offering of himself.

The law makes high priests of men who are feeble; but the word of the oath, which was made after the law, gives that position to a Son, in whom all good is for ever complete.

For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices; so it is essential for this One also to have something to offer.

If he had been on earth he would not have been a priest at all, because there are other priests who make the offerings ordered by the law;

Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

When God speaks of “A new covenant,” He makes the first one obsolete. And whatever is becoming obsolete (out of use, annulled) and growing old is ready to disappear.

Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;

He went once for all into the Holy Place [the Holy of Holies of heaven, into the presence of God], and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, having obtained and secured eternal redemption [that is, the salvation of all who personally believe in Him as Savior].

For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have contracted defilement make them holy so as to bring about ceremonial purity,
