1 Timothy 6:1-5

1All whoG3745 areG1510 underG5259 the yokeG2218 of slaveryG1401 should regardG2233 their mastersG1203 as fullyG3956 worthyG514 of honorG5092, so thatG2443 God’sG2316 nameG3686 andG2532 our teachingG1319 will not be discreditedG3361G987. 2Those whoG3588 haveG2192 believingG4103 mastersG1203 should not show disrespectG3361G2706 becauseG3754 they areG1510 brothersG80, butG235 should serveG1398 them all the moreG3123, sinceG3754 thoseG3588 receivingG482 their good serviceG2108 areG1510 belovedG27 believersG4103. TeachG1321 andG2532 encourageG3870 theseG3778 principles.

3IfG1487 anyoneG5100 teaches another doctrineG2085 andG2532 disagreesG3361G4334 with the soundG5198 wordsG3056 of ourG1473 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 andG2532 withG2596 godlyG2150 teachingG1319, 4he is conceitedG5187 and understandsG1987 nothingG3367. InsteadG235, he has an unhealthy interestG3552 inG4012 controversiesG2214 andG2532 disputes about wordsG3055, out ofG1537 whichG3739 comeG1096 envyG5355, strifeG2054, abusive talkG988, evilG4190 suspicionsG5283, 5and constant frictionG3859 between menG444 of depravedG1311 mindG3563 who are devoidG650 of the truthG225. These men regardG3543 godlinessG2150 asG1510 a means of gainG4200.1
