1 Timothy 4:1-8

1But the SpiritG4151 speaksG3004 expressly, that in latter timesG2540 some shall apostatise from the faithG4102, givingG4337 their mind to deceiving spiritsG4151 and teachingsG1319 of demonsG1140

2speaking lies in hypocrisyG5272, cauterised as to their ownG2398 conscienceG4893,

3forbiddingG2967 to marryG1060, [bidding] to abstainG568 from meats, which 1GodG2316 has created for receiving with thanksgivingG2169 for them who are faithfulG4103 and knowG1921 the truthG225.

4For every creatureG2938 of 2GodG2316 [is] goodG2570, and nothing [is] to be rejected, being receivedG2983 with thanksgivingG2169;

5for it is sanctifiedG37 by 3God's wordG3056 and freely addressing [him].

6Laying these thingsG3778 before the brethren, thou wilt beG1510 a goodG2570 ministerG1249 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424, nourished with the wordsG3056 of the faithG4102 and of the goodG2570 teachingG1319 which thou hast fully followedG3877 up.

7But profaneG952 and old wives' fables avoid, but exercise thyself unto piety;

8for bodilyG4984 exercise isG1510 profitableG5624 for a littleG3641, but piety isG1510 profitableG5624 for everythingG3956, having promiseG1860 of lifeG2222, of the presentG3568 oneG3588, and of that to comeG3195.
