I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness—

I serve the church. God appointed me to bring the complete word of God to you.

of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known,

God has given me the responsibility of serving his church by proclaiming his entire message to you.

I have become its servant, according to God’s commission that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known,

I was made a minister of this church according to the commission from God granted to me for your benefit, so that I might fully carry out the preaching of the word of God,

of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,

相信你们已经听说了，上帝委派我将祂的恩典传给你们。

只是你们必须恒心持守所信的道，根基稳固，坚定不移，不要失去你们听到福音后所得到的盼望。这福音传给了天下万民。我保罗也做了这福音的使者。

相反，他们都已看到，上帝差遣了我向外族人传福音，就像祂差遣了彼得向犹太人传福音一样。上帝感动了彼得，呼召他做犹太人的使徒，祂也同样感动了我，呼召我做外族人的使徒。

你要提醒弟兄姊妹这些事，这样你就是基督耶稣的好仆人，会不断地从你所信的真道和所遵行的美好教导上得到造就。

无论时机好坏，都要坚持传道，以百般的忍耐和教导督责人，警戒人，勉励人。因为有一天，人们会厌倦纯正的教导，耳朵发痒，寻找许多迎合他们私欲的老师。他们掩耳不听真理，反而偏向无稽之谈。然而，你要谨慎行事，不怕吃苦，专心传道，尽忠职守。

派提摩太去你们那里。他在传扬基督福音的事工上是我们的弟兄、上帝的同工。他去是要鼓励你们，使你们信心坚定，

但我仍放胆写信提醒你们几件事，因为我蒙上帝赐恩，在外族人中做基督耶稣的仆人和上帝福音的祭司，好叫外族人借着圣灵得以圣洁，可以作上帝喜悦的祭物。因此，我在基督耶稣里以事奉上帝为荣。别的事我不敢提，只有一件是我津津乐道的，就是基督借着我的言语行为，用神迹奇事和圣灵的大能叫外族人顺服，使我把基督的福音从耶路撒冷一路传到了以利哩古。

我若甘心乐意地传福音，就可以得奖赏；我若不甘愿，责任也已经委托给我了。
