1 Timothy 6:6-10

6A godly life brings huge profits to people who are content with what they have.

7We didn’t bring anything into the world, and we can’t take anything out of it.

8As long as we have food and clothes, we should be satisfied.

9But people who want to get rich keep falling into temptation. They are trapped by many stupid and harmful desires which drown them in destruction and ruin.

10Certainly, the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. Some people who have set their hearts on getting rich have wandered away from the Christian faith and have caused themselves a lot of grief.
