*
As I besought thee ,
when I set out for Macedonia ,
to remain still in Ephesus ,
that thou mightst charge certain persons not to teach other doctrine ,
*
nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies ,
which occasion disputes rather than promote God
s dispensation which is in faith ,
*
Now the end of the commandment is love ,
out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned ;
*
from which some swerving turned aside to vain babbling ,
*
desiring to be teachers of the Law ,
understanding neither what they say ,
nor whereof they affirm .
*
But we know that the Law is good ,
if a man use it lawfully ,
*
knowing this ,
that the Law is not made for a righteous man ,
but for the lawless and unruly ,
for the ungodly and sinful ,
for the unholy and profane ,
for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers ,
for man
slayers ,
*
for whoremongers ,
for them that defile themselves with mankind ,
for men
stealers ,
for liars ,
for perjured persons ,
and if there be any other thing that is contrary to the sound teaching ,
*
according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God which was committed to my trust .
