1 Timothy 6:6-11
61But godlinessG2150 actually is a meansG4200 ofG4200 2greatG3173 gainG4200 when accompaniedG3326 by 3contentmentG841. 7For 4we have broughtG1533 nothingG3762 into the worldG2889, soG3754 we cannotG1410G3761 takeG1627 anythingG5100 outG1627 of it, eitherG3761. 8If we 5haveG2192 foodG1305 and 6coveringG4629, with theseG3778 we shall be contentG714. 97But thoseG3588 who wantG1014 to getG4147 richG4147 fallG1706 into temptationG3986 and 8a trapG3803, and manyG4183 foolishG453 and harmfulG983 desiresG1939 whichG3748 plungeG1036 peopleG444 into ruinG3639 and destructionG684. 10For 9the loveG5365 ofG5365 moneyG5365 is a rootG4491 of allG3956 10sorts of evilG2556, and someG5100 by longingG3713 for it have 11wanderedG635 awayG635 from the faithG4102 and piercedG4044 themselvesG1438 with manyG4183 12griefsG3601.
11But 13fleeG5343 from theseG3778 thingsG3778, you 14manG444 of GodG2316, and pursueG1377 righteousnessG1343, godlinessG2150, 15faithG4102, 16loveG26, 17perseveranceG5281, and gentlenessG4239.
