1 Timothy 1-2
New American Standard Bible 1995
Misleadings in Doctrine and Living
1 Paul, (A)an apostle of (B)Christ Jesus (C)according to the commandment of (D)God our Savior, and of (E)Christ Jesus, who is our (F)hope,
2 To (G)Timothy, (H)my true child in the faith: (I)Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and (J)Christ Jesus our Lord.
3 As I urged you [a]upon my departure for (K)Macedonia, [b]remain on at (L)Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to (M)teach strange doctrines, 4 nor to [c]pay attention to (N)myths and endless (O)genealogies, which give rise to mere (P)speculation rather than (Q)furthering [d]the administration of God which is by faith. 5 But the goal of our [e](R)instruction is love (S)from a pure heart and a (T)good conscience and a sincere (U)faith. 6 For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to (V)fruitless discussion, 7 (W)wanting to be (X)teachers of the Law, even though they do not understand either what they are saying or the matters about which they make confident assertions.
8 But we know that (Y)the Law is good, if one uses it lawfully, 9 realizing the fact that (Z)law is not made for a righteous person, but for those who are lawless and (AA)rebellious, for the (AB)ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and (AC)profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers 10 [f]and [g](AD)immoral men [h]and (AE)homosexuals [i]and (AF)kidnappers [j]and (AG)liars [k]and (AH)perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to (AI)sound teaching, 11 according to (AJ)the glorious gospel of (AK)the blessed God, with which I have been (AL)entrusted.
12 I thank (AM)Christ Jesus our Lord, who has (AN)strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, (AO)putting me into service, 13 even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a (AP)persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was (AQ)shown mercy because (AR)I acted ignorantly in unbelief; 14 and the (AS)grace of our Lord was more than abundant, with the (AT)faith and love which are found in Christ Jesus. 15 (AU)It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that (AV)Christ Jesus came into the world to (AW)save sinners, among whom (AX)I am foremost of all. 16 Yet for this reason I (AY)found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might (AZ)demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those [l]who would believe in Him for eternal life. 17 Now to the (BA)King [m]eternal, (BB)immortal, (BC)invisible, the (BD)only God, (BE)be honor and glory [n]forever and ever. Amen.
18 This (BF)command I entrust to you, Timothy, (BG)my [o]son, in accordance with the (BH)prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you (BI)fight the good fight, 19 keeping (BJ)faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to [p](BK)their faith. 20 [q]Among these are (BL)Hymenaeus and (BM)Alexander, whom I have (BN)handed over to Satan, so that they will be (BO)taught not to blaspheme.
A Call to Prayer
2 First of all, then, I urge that (BP)entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men, 2 (BQ)for kings and all who are in [r]authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and [s]dignity. 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of (BR)God our Savior, 4 (BS)who desires all men to be (BT)saved and to (BU)come to the [t]knowledge of the truth. 5 For there is (BV)one God, and (BW)one mediator also between God and men, the (BX)man Christ Jesus, 6 who (BY)gave Himself as a ransom for all, the (BZ)testimony [u]given at [v](CA)the proper time. 7 (CB)For this I was appointed a [w]preacher and (CC)an apostle ((CD)I am telling the truth, I am not lying) as a teacher of (CE)the Gentiles in faith and truth.
8 Therefore (CF)I want the men (CG)in every place to pray, (CH)lifting up (CI)holy hands, without wrath and dissension.
Women Instructed
9 Likewise, I want (CJ)women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, [x]modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments, 10 but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness. 11 (CK)A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness. 12 (CL)But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 (CM)For it was Adam who was first [y]created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but (CN)the woman being deceived, [z]fell into transgression. 15 But women will be [aa]preserved through the bearing of children if they continue in (CO)faith and love and sanctity with [ab]self-restraint.

Psalm 100
New American Standard Bible 1995
All Men Exhorted to Praise God.
A Psalm for [a]Thanksgiving.
100 (A)Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth.
2 (B)Serve the Lord with gladness;
(C)Come before Him with joyful singing.
3 Know that (D)the Lord [b]Himself is God;
It is He who has (E)made us, and [c]not we ourselves;
We are (F)His people and the sheep of His pasture.
4 Enter His gates (G)with [d]thanksgiving
And His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, (H)bless His name.
5 For (I)the Lord is good;
(J)His lovingkindness is everlasting
And His (K)faithfulness to all generations.

Proverbs 26:13-16
New American Standard Bible 1995
13 The (A)sluggard says, “There is a lion in the road!
A lion is [a]in the open square!”
14 As the door turns on its hinges,
So does the (B)sluggard on his bed.
15 The (C)sluggard buries his hand in the dish;
He is weary of bringing it to his mouth again.
16 The sluggard is (D)wiser in his own eyes
Than seven men who can [b]give a discreet answer.
