New American Standard Bible 1995
1 Timothy 6:15-21
15which He will 1bring about at 2the proper time--He who is 3the blessed and 4only Sovereign, 5the King of 6kings and 7Lord of 8lords, 169who alone possesses immortality and 10dwells in unapproachable light, 11whom no man has seen or can see. 12To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.
17Instruct those who are rich in 13this present world 14not to be conceited or to 15fix their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, 16who richly supplies us with all things to enjoy. 18Instruct them to do good, to be rich in 17good 18works, 19to be generous and ready to share, 1920storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may 21take hold of that which is life indeed.
20O 22Timothy, guard 23what has been entrusted to you, avoiding 24worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge”-- 21which some have professed and thus 25gone astray 26from 27the faith.
28Grace be with you.
