1 Timothy 6:17-21
New American Standard Bible
17 Instruct those who are rich in (A)this present world (B)not to be conceited or to (C)set their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, (D)who richly supplies us with all things to enjoy. 18 Instruct them to do good, to be rich in (E)good [a]works, (F)to be generous and ready to share, 19 (G)storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may (H)take hold of that which is truly life.
20 (I)Timothy, protect (J)what has been entrusted to you, avoiding (K)worldly, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge”— 21 which some have professed and thereby have (L)gone astray [b]from (M)the faith.
(N)Grace be with you.
