1 Timothy 6:6-10

American Standard Version

⁶ But godliness with contentment is great gain: ⁷ for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out; ⁸ but having food and covering ^[a]we shall be therewith content. ⁹ But they that are minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown men in destruction and perdition. ¹⁰ For the love of money is a root of all ^[b]kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
