1 Timothy 6:5-11

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.
