New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
4
nor to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which give rise to useless speculation rather than
advance
the plan of God, which is by faith,
so I urge you now.
5
But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart,
from
a good conscience, and
from
a sincere faith.
6
Some people have strayed from these things and have turned aside to fruitless discussion,
7
wanting to be teachers of the Law, even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions.
8
But we know that the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
9
realizing the fact that law is not made for a righteous person but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and worldly, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers,
King James Version
Chapter 1
4
Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
5
Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
6
From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
7
Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
8
But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
9
Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

or to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies. These promote empty speculations rather than God’s plan, which operates by faith.
5
Now the goal of our instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith.
6
Some have departed from these and turned aside to fruitless discussion.

They want to be teachers of the law, although they don’t understand what they are saying or what they are insisting on.
8
But we know that the law is good, provided one uses it legitimately.
9
We know that the law is not meant for a righteous person, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and irreverent, for those who kill their fathers and mothers, for murderers,
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
4
Don’t let them waste their time in endless discussion of myths and spiritual pedigrees. These things only lead to meaningless speculations, which don’t help people live a life of faith in God.
5
The purpose of my instruction is that all believers would be filled with love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and genuine faith.
6
But some people have missed this whole point. They have turned away from these things and spend their time in meaningless discussions.
7
They want to be known as teachers of the law of Moses, but they don’t know what they are talking about, even though they speak so confidently.
8
We know that the law is good when used correctly.
9
For the law was not intended for people who do what is right. It is for people who are lawless and rebellious, who are ungodly and sinful, who consider nothing sacred and defile what is holy, who kill their father or mother or commit other murders.
English Standard Version

7
desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make confident assertions.
8
Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
9
understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers,

5
Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart,
from
a good conscience, and
from
sincere faith,

7
desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.
8
But we know that the law
is
good if one uses it lawfully,
9
knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for
the
lawless and insubordinate, for
the
ungodly and for sinners, for
the
unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
