1 Timothy 1:3-7

Revised Geneva Translation

³ As I urged you when I departed into Macedonia, remain in Ephesus so that you may charge some to teach no other doctrine,

⁴ or to consider fables and endless genealogies (which breed questions rather than godly edifying, which is by faith).

⁵ For the purpose of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience, and faith without hypocrisy.

⁶ Some have erred from such things and have turned to mindless twaddle.

⁷ They would be teachers of the Law and yet do not understand what they say or the things they affirm.
