G3588–ὁ–ho

Now the Spirit expressly declares that in later times some will fall away from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and the teachings of demons;

Τὸ To “<the>”τῆς tēs “from the”

through the hypocrisy of men who teach falsely and have their own consciences seared as with a hot iron;

τὴν tēn “<the>”

forbidding people to marry, and insisting on abstinence from foods which God has created to be partaken of, with thankfulness, by those who believe and have a clear knowledge of the truth.

ὁ ho “<the>”τοῖς tois “by the”τὴν tēn “the”

If you warn the brethren of these dangers you will be a good and faithful servant of Christ Jesus, inwardly feeding on the lessons of the faith and of the sound teaching of which you have been, and are, so close a follower.

τοῖς tois “the”τοῖς tois “in the”τῆς tēs “of the”τῆς tēs “of the”

But worldly stories, fit only for credulous old women, have nothing to do with.

τοὺς tous “<the>”

Train yourself in godliness. Exercise for the body is not useless, but godliness is useful in every respect, possessing, as it does, the promise of Life now and of the Life which is soon coming.

ἡ hē “<the>”ἡ hē “<the>”τῆς tēs “of the”τῆς tēs “which”

Faithful is this saying and deserving of universal acceptance:

ὁ ho “the”

Let no one think slightingly of you because you are a young man; but in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, be an example for your fellow Christians to imitate.

τῆς tēs “<the>”τῶν tōn “for the”

Till I come, bestow your attention on reading, exhortation and teaching.

τῇ tēa “to the”τῇ tēa “<the>”τῇ tēa “<the>”

Do not be careless about the gifts with which you are endowed, which were conferred on you through a divine revelation when the hands of the elders were placed upon you.

τοῦ tou “of the”τῶν tōn “of the”τοῦ tou “of the”

Habitually practise these duties, and be absorbed in them; so that your growing proficiency in them may be evident to all.

ἡ hē “<the>”

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.

τῇ tēa “to the”τοὺς tous “those”

Honour widows who are really in need.

τὰς tas “who [are]”

But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let these learn first to show piety towards their own homes and to prove their gratitude to their parents; for this is well pleasing in the sight of God.

τὸν ton “<the>”τοῖς tois “<the>”τοῦ tou “<the>”

A widow who is really in need, friendless and desolate, has her hopes fixed on God, and continues at her supplications and prayers, night and day;

Ἡ Hē “She who [is]”τὸν ton “<the>”ταῖς tais “<the>”ταῖς tais “<the>”

but a pleasure-loving widow is dead even while still alive.

ἡ hē “She”

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.

τῶν tōn “<the>”τῶν tōn “of the”τὴν tēn “the”

But the younger widows you must not enrol; for as soon as they begin to chafe against the yoke of Christ, they want to marry,

τοῦ tou “<the>”

and they incur disapproval for having broken their original vow.

τὴν tēn “the”

And at the same time they also learn to be idle as they go round from house to house; and they are not only idle, but are gossips also and busybodies, speaking of things that ought not to be spoken of.

τὰς tas “<the>”τὰ ta “<the> [things]”

I would therefore have the younger women marry, bear children, rule in domestic matters, and furnish the Adversary with no excuse for slander.

τῷ tō “to the [one]”

For already some of them have gone astray, following Satan.

τοῦ tou “<the>”

If a believing woman has widows dependent on her, she should relieve their wants, and save the Church from being burdened--so that the Church may relieve the widows who are really in need.

ἡ hē “the”ταῖς tais “to those [who are]”

Let the Elders who perform their duties wisely and well be held worthy of double honour, especially those who labour in preaching and teaching.

Οἱ Hoi “The”οἱ hoi “those”

For the Scripture says, "You are not to muzzle the ox while it is treading out the grain;" and the workman deserves his pay.

ἡ hē “the”ὁ ho “the”τοῦ tou “of the”
