1 Timothy 1:9 in Context — 1 Timothy 1

7 querendo ser mestres da Lei, mas não entendendo, nem o que dizem, nem o que afirmam.

8 Nós, porém, sabemos que a Lei é boa, se alguém usa dela legitimamente;

9 pois sabemos isto: que a Lei não foi feita para o justo, mas sim, para os injustos e insubordinados, para os ímpios e pecadores, para os irreligiosos e profanos, para os matadores dos pais e das mães, para os homicidas,

10 para os que cometem pecados sexuais, para os homens que efetuam sexualidade com homens, para os que roubam a liberdade das pessoas, para os mentirosos, para os que juram falsamente, e qualquer outra coisa contrária à sã doutrina,

11 conforme o evangelho da glória do Deus bendito, que foi confiado a mim.
