1Timothy:6:11-21

Seeker Overlay ON

* But thou , O man of God , flee these things , and pursue righteousness , piety , faith , love , endurance , meekness of spirit . * Strive earnestly [in ] the good conflict of faith . Lay hold of eternal life , to which thou hast been called , and hast confessed the good confession before many witnesses . * I enjoin thee before God who preserves all things in life , and Christ Jesus who witnessed before Pontius Pilate the good confession , * that thou keep the commandment spotless , irreproachable , until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ ; * which in its own time the blessed and only Ruler shall shew , the King of those that reign , and Lord of those that exercise lordship ; * who only has immortality , dwelling in unapproachable light ; whom no man has seen , nor is able to see ; to whom [be ] honour and eternal might . Amen . * Enjoin on those rich in the present age not to be high-minded , nor to trust on the uncertainty of riches ; but in the God who affords us all things richly for [our ] enjoyment ; * to do good , to be rich in good works , to be liberal in distributing , disposed to communicate [of their substance ], * laying by for themselves a good foundation for the future , that they may lay hold of [what is ] really life . * O Timotheus , keep the entrusted deposit , avoiding profane , vain babblings , and oppositions of false-named knowledge , * of which some having made profession , have missed the faith . Grace [be ] with thee .
