1 Timothy 4:6-10
Legacy Standard Bible
A Good Minister’s Discipline
6 In pointing out these things to (A)the brothers, you will be a good (B)servant of Christ Jesus, being nourished on the words of the faith and of the [a](C)sound doctrine which you (D)have been following. 7 But refuse (E)godless (F)myths fit only for old women. On the other hand, train yourself for the purpose of (G)godliness, 8 for (H)bodily training is only of little profit, but (I)godliness is profitable for all things, since it (J)holds promise for the (K)present life and also for the life to come. 9 (L)It is a trustworthy saying and deserving full acceptance. 10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed (M)our hope on (N)the living God, who is (O)the Savior of all men, especially of believers.

New American Standard Bible
A Good Minister’s Discipline
6 In pointing out these things to (A)the brothers and sisters, you will be a good (B)servant of Christ Jesus, constantly nourished on the words of the faith and of the (C)good doctrine which you (D)have been following. 7 But [a]stay away from (E)worthless (F)stories that are typical of old women. Rather, [b]discipline yourself for the purpose of (G)godliness; 8 for (H)bodily training is just slightly beneficial, but (I)godliness is beneficial for all things, since it (J)holds promise for the (K)present life and also for the life to come. 9 (L)It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance. 10 For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have set (M)our hope on (N)the living God, who is (O)the Savior of all mankind, especially of believers.
