1 Timothy 6:17-19
Wycliffe Bible
17 Command thou to the rich men of this world, that they understand not highly, neither that they hope in uncertainty of riches[a], but in the living God, that giveth to us all things plenteously to use;
18 to do well, to be made rich in good works, lightly to give, to commune,
19 to treasure to themselves a good foundament into time to coming [into time to come], that they catch everlasting life.

1 Timothy 6:17-19
New International Version
17 Command those who are rich(A) in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth,(B) which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God,(C) who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.(D) 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds,(E) and to be generous and willing to share.(F) 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves(G) as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of(H) the life that is truly life.
