1 Timothy 4:7-11

New American Standard Bible

⁷ But ^[a]stay away from ^(A)worthless ^(B)stories that are typical of old women. Rather, ^[b]discipline yourself for the purpose of ^(C)godliness; ⁸ for ^(D)bodily training is just slightly beneficial, but ^(E)godliness is beneficial for all things, since it ^(F)holds promise for the ^(G)present life and also for the life to come. ^9 (H)It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance. ¹⁰ For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have set ^(I)our hope on ^(J)the living God, who is ^(K)the Savior of all mankind, especially of believers.

^11 [c](L)Prescribe and teach these things.
