1 Timothy 6:4-11

4heG2532 is puffed up, knowingG1987 nothingG3367, butG235 doting aboutG4012 questionings andG2532 disputesG3055 ofG1537 wordsG3055, whereof cometh envyG5355, strifeG2054, railings, evilG4190 surmisings,

5wranglings ofG444 menG444 corruptedG1311 inG2532 mindG3563 andG2532 bereft ofG444 theG3588 truthG225, supposingG3543 thatG444 godlinessG2150 isG1510 aG1510 way ofG444 gainG4200.

6ButG1161 godlinessG2150 withG3326 contentmentG841 isG1510 greatG3173 gainG4200:

7forG1063 weG3754 broughtG1533 nothingG3762 intoG1519 theG3588 worldG2889, forG1063 neitherG3761 canG1410 weG3754 carryG1627 anythingG5100 outG1627;

8butG1161 havingG2192 foodG1305 andG2532 coveringG4629 weG3778 shallG3778 beG2532 therewith contentG714.

9ButG1161 theyG2532 thatG3748 desireG1939 toG1519 beG2532 richG4147 fallG1706 intoG1519 a temptationG3986 andG2532 a snareG3803 andG2532 manyG4183 foolishG453 andG2532 hurtful lustsG1939, such asG1519 drown menG444 inG1519 destructionG684 andG2532 perditionG684.

10ForG1063 theG3956 loveG5365 ofG575 moneyG5365 isG1510 aG1510 rootG4491 ofG575 allG3956 kindsG3956 ofG575 evilG2556: whichG3739 someG5100 reaching afterG2532 haveG1510 beenG1510 led astrayG635 fromG575 theG3956 faithG4102, andG2532 haveG1510 piercedG4044 themselvesG1438 throughG575 withG575 manyG4183 sorrows.

11ButG1161 thou, OG5599 manG444 ofG2316 GodG2316, fleeG5343 theseG3778 thingsG3778; andG1161 follow afterG1161 righteousnessG1343, godlinessG2150, faithG4102, loveG26, patienceG5281, meeknessG4240.
