1 Timothy 1:3-11

3As I urged you 1upon my departure for 2Macedonia, 3remain on at 4Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to 5teach strange doctrines, 4nor to 6pay attention to 7myths and endless 8genealogies, which give rise to mere 9speculation rather than 10furthering 11the administration of God which is by faith. 5But the goal of our 1213instruction is love 14from a pure heart and a 15good conscience and a sincere 16faith. 6For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to 17fruitless discussion, 718wanting to be 19teachers of the Law, even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions.

8But we know that 20the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9realizing the fact that 21law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and 22rebellious, for the 23ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and 24profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers 1025and 2627immoral men 28and 29homosexuals 30and 31kidnappers 32and 33liars 34and 35perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to 36sound teaching, 11according to 37the glorious gospel of 38the blessed God, with which I have been 39entrusted.
