1 Timothy 4:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

⁶ These things proposing to the brethren, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished up in the words of faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast attained unto.

⁷ But avoid foolish and old wives' fables: and exercise thyself unto godliness.
