1 Timothy 6:11-16

English Standard Version

Fight the Good Fight of Faith

¹¹ But as for you, ^(A)O man of God, ^(B)flee these things. ^(C)Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. ^12 (D)Fight the good fight of the faith. ^(E)Take hold of the eternal life ^(F)to which you were called and about which you made ^(G)the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. ^13 (H)I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, ^(I)who in his testimony before^[a] Pontius Pilate made ^(J)the good confession, ¹⁴ to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until ^(K)the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, ¹⁵ which he will display ^(L)at the proper time—he who is ^(M)the blessed and only Sovereign, ^(N)the King of kings and Lord of lords, ^16 (O)who alone has immortality, ^(P)who dwells in ^(Q)unapproachable light, ^(R)whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.
