指望 Hope

离弃真道

圣灵明说:在后来的时候,必有人离弃真道,听从那引诱人的邪灵和鬼魔的道理。4:1 But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,4:2 这是因为说谎之人的假冒;这等人的良心如同被热铁烙惯了一般。4:2 by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron,4:3 他们禁止嫁娶,又禁戒食物(或作“又叫人戒荤”),就是神所造、叫那信而明白真道的人感谢着领受的。4:3 {men} who forbid marriage {and advocate} abstaining from foods which God has created to be gratefully shared in by those who believe and know the truth.

敬虔

4:4 凡神所造的物都是好的,若感谢着领受,就没有一样可弃的;4:4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude;4:5 都因神的道和人的祈求,成为圣洁了。4:5 for it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer.4:8 “操练身体,益处还少;惟独敬虔,凡事都有益处,因有今生和来生的应许。”4:8 for bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and {also} for the {life} to come.

4:9 这话是可信的,是十分可佩服的。4:9 It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance.4:10 我们劳苦努力,正是为此,因我们的指望在乎永生的神;他是万人的救主,更是信徒的救主。4:10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers.4:11 这些事,你要吩咐人,也要教导人。4:11 Prescribe and teach these things.

救人

4:12 不可叫人小看你年轻,总要在言语、行为、爱心、信心、清洁上,都作信徒的榜样。4:12 Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but {rather} in speech, conduct, love, faith {and} purity, show yourself an example of those who believe.4:13 你要以宣读、劝勉、教导为念,直等到我来。4:13 Until I come, give attention to the {public} reading {of Scripture,} to exhortation and teaching.4:16 你要谨慎自己和自己的教训,要在这些事上恒心;因为这样行,又能救自己,又能救听你的人。4:16 Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in these things, for as you do this you will ensure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you.
