1 Timothy 6:10-16
10For 1the love of money is a root of all 2sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have 3wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
11But 4flee from these things, you 5man of God, and pursue righteousness, godliness, 6faith, 7love, 8perseverance and gentleness. 129Fight the good fight of 10faith; 11take hold of the eternal life 12to which you were called, and you made the good 13confession in the presence of 14many witnesses. 1315I charge you in the presence of God, who 16gives life to all things, and of 17Christ Jesus, who testified the 18good confession 19before Pontius Pilate, 14that you keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the 20appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which He will 21bring about at 22the proper time--He who is 23the blessed and 24only Sovereign, 25the King of 26kings and 27Lord of 28lords, 1629who alone possesses immortality and 30dwells in unapproachable light, 31whom no man has seen or can see. 32To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
