13 (A)I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, (B)who in his testimony before[a] Pontius Pilate made (C)the good confession, 14 to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until (D)the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 which he will display (E)at the proper time—he who is (F)the blessed and only Sovereign, (G)the King of kings and Lord of lords, 16 (H)who alone has immortality, (I)who dwells in (J)unapproachable light, (K)whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.

17 As for the rich in (L)this present age, charge them (M)not to be haughty, nor (N)to set their hopes on (O)the uncertainty of riches, but on God, (P)who richly provides us with everything to enjoy. 18 They are to do good, (Q)to be rich in good works, to be generous and (R)ready to share, 19 thus (S)storing up treasure for themselves as a good foundation for the future, so that they may (T)take hold of (U)that which is truly life.
