1 Timothy 6:4-11

4he is puffed up, knowingG1987 nothingG3367, but doting about questionings and disputes of words, whereof cometh envyG5355, strifeG2054, railings, evilG4190 surmisings, 5wranglings of menG444 corrupted in mindG3563 and bereft of the truthG225, supposing that godlinessG2150 isG1510 a way of gainG4200. 6But godlinessG2150 with contentment isG1510 greatG3173 gainG4200: 7for we broughtG1533 nothing into the worldG2889, for neither can we carryG1627 anythingG5100 out; 8but having food and covering we shall be therewith contentG714. 9But they that are minded to be richG4147 fallG1706 into a temptationG3986 and a snareG3803 and manyG4183 foolishG453 and hurtful lustsG1939, such as drown menG444 in destructionG684 and perdition. 10For the love of money isG1510 a rootG4491 of all kinds of evilG2556: which some reaching after have beenG1510 led astray from the faithG4102, and have pierced themselves through with manyG4183 sorrows.

11But thou, O manG444 of GodG2316, fleeG5343 these thingsG3778; and follow after righteousnessG1343, godlinessG2150, faithG4102, loveG26, patience, meekness.
