1 Timothy 1:3-7
Jubilee Bible 2000
3 Even as I besought thee to remain at Ephesus when I went into Macedonia, that thou might charge some that they not teach diverse doctrine,
4 nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which generate questions other than that the edification of God is by faith.
5 ¶ Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart and of a good conscience and of faith unfeigned:
6 from which some, having swerved, have turned aside unto vanity of words,
7 desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor from where they affirm.

1 Timothy 1:3-7
New International Version
Timothy Charged to Oppose False Teachers
3 As I urged you when I went into Macedonia,(A) stay there in Ephesus(B) so that you may command certain people not to teach false doctrines(C) any longer 4 or to devote themselves to myths(D) and endless genealogies.(E) Such things promote controversial speculations(F) rather than advancing God’s work—which is by faith. 5 The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart(G) and a good conscience(H) and a sincere faith.(I) 6 Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. 7 They want to be teachers(J) of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.(K)
