1 Timothy 6:2-5
Legacy Standard Bible

2 But those who have believers as their masters must not be disrespectful to them because they are (A)brothers, but must serve them all the more, because those who [a]partake of the benefit are believers and beloved. (B)Teach and exhort these things.

3 If anyone (C)teaches a different doctrine and does not [b]agree with (D)sound words—those of our Lord Jesus Christ—and with the doctrine (E)conforming to godliness, 4 he is (F)conceited, understanding nothing but [c]having a morbid interest in (G)controversial questions and (H)disputes about words, out of which arise envy, strife, slander, evil suspicions, 5 and constant friction between (I)men of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who (J)suppose that [d]godliness is a means of gain.

1 Timothy 6:2-5
Lexham English Bible

2 And those who have believing masters must not look down on them because they are brothers, but rather they must serve, because those who benefit by their service are believers and dearly loved.

False Teachers and the Love of Money

Teach and encourage these things. 3 If anyone teaches other doctrine and does not devote himself to the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that is in accordance with godliness, 4 he is conceited, understanding nothing, but having a morbid interest concerning controversies and disputes about words, from which come envy, strife, slanders, evil suspicions, 5 constant wrangling by people of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who consider godliness to be a means of gain.

1 Timothy 6:2-5
New International Version

2 Those who have believing masters should not show them disrespect just because they are fellow believers.(A) Instead, they should serve them even better because their masters are dear to them as fellow believers and are devoted to the welfare[a] of their slaves.

False Teachers and the Love of Money

These are the things you are to teach and insist on.(B) 3 If anyone teaches otherwise(C) and does not agree to the sound instruction(D) of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, 4 they are conceited(E) and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words(F) that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions 5 and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth(G) and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
