6 As many slaves as are under a yoke, let them regard their own masters worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be blasphemed. 2 But the ones having believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brothers, but let them serve them more, because they are believers and beloved, the ones partaking of the service. Teach and encourage these things.
3 If anyone is teaching differently and does not accede to the healthy words, the ones of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the teaching according to godliness, 4 he is puffed up, understanding nothing, but being sick about controversies and word-battles, from which come envy, strife, blasphemies, evil suspicions, 5 friction, between men having been corrupted as to the mind and having been deprived of the truth, considering godliness to be a means of gain.[fn] 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into the world, so that neither are we able to take anything out. 8 But having food and clothing, with these we will be satisfied. 9 Now the ones wanting to be rich fall into temptation and a trap and many foolish and harmful desires, whatever plunges men into ruin and destruction. 10 For a root of all the evils is the love of money, which, some desiring, have been led away from the faith and have pierced themselves with many sorrows.
11 But you, O man of God, flee these things, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of the faith, grasp eternal life, to which you were called and confessed the good confession before many witnesses. 13 I command you before God, the one enlivening all, and Christ Jesus, the one having testified the good confession before Pontius Pilate, 14 that you keep the commandment spotless, irreproachable, until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 whom in its own times the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, will reveal, 16 the One having immortality alone, occupying unapproachable light, whom none of men has seen, nor is able to see, to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen.
17 Command the rich in the present age not to be proud, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in God, the one providing us all things richly unto enjoyment, 18 to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous, willing to share, 19 storing up for themselves a good foundation for what is coming, so that they may grasp genuine life.
20 O Timothy, guard the deposit, avoiding the profane chatter and contradictions of miscalled knowledge, 21 which some, professing, have missed the mark regarding the faith. Grace be with you.
