New American Standard Bible 1995
1 Timothy 6:14-21
14that you keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the 1appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15which He will 2bring about at 3the proper time--He who is 4the blessed and 5only Sovereign, 6the King of 7kings and 8Lord of 9lords, 1610who alone possesses immortality and 11dwells in unapproachable light, 12whom no man has seen or can see. 13To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
17Instruct those who are rich in 14this present world 15not to be conceited or to 16fix their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, 17who richly supplies us with all things to enjoy. 18Instruct them to do good, to be rich in 18good 19works, 20to be generous and ready to share, 1921storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may 22take hold of that which is life indeed.
20O 23Timothy, guard 24what has been entrusted to you, avoiding 25worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge”-- 21which some have professed and thus 26gone astray 27from 28the faith.
29Grace be with you.
