2 Timothy 2:20-23

English Standard Version

²⁰ Now in ^(A)a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, ^(B)some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. ²¹ Therefore, ^(C)if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable,^[a] he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, ^(D)ready for every good work.

²² So ^(E)flee ^(F)youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with ^(G)those who call on the Lord ^(H)from a pure heart. ²³ Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant ^(I)controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.
