YLT - I Timothy - 6

6:1  As many as are servants under a yoke, their own masters worthy of all honour let them reckon, that the name of God and the teaching may not be evil spoken of;

6:2  and those having believing masters, let them not slight them , because they are brethren, but rather let them serve, because they are stedfast and beloved, who of the benefit are partaking. These things be teaching and exhorting;

6:3  if any one be teaching otherwise, and do not consent to sound words--those of our Lord Jesus Christ--and to the teaching according to piety,

6:4  he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and word-striving, out of which doth come envy, strife, evil-speakings, evil-surmisings,

6:5  wranglings of men wholly corrupted in mind, and destitute of the truth, supposing the piety to be gain; depart from such;

6:6  but it is great gain--the piety with contentment;

6:7  for nothing did we bring into the world-- it is manifest that we are able to carry nothing out;

6:8  but having food and raiment--with these we shall suffice ourselves;

6:9  and those wishing to be rich, do fall into temptation and a snare, and many desires, foolish and hurtful, that sink men into ruin and destruction,

6:10  for a root of all the evils is the love of money, which certain longing for did go astray from the faith, and themselves did pierce through with many sorrows;

6:11  and thou, O man of God, these things flee, and pursue righteousness, piety, faith, love, endurance, meekness;

6:12  be striving the good strife of the faith, be laying hold on the life age-during, to which also thou wast called, and didst profess the right profession before many witnesses.

6:13  I charge thee, before God, who is making all things alive, and of Christ Jesus, who did testify before Pontius Pilate the right profession,

6:14  that thou keep the command unspotted, unblameable, till the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

6:15  which in His own times He shall shew--the blessed and only potentate, the King of the kings and Lord of the lords,

6:16  who only is having immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable, whom no one of men did see, nor is able to see, to whom is honour and might age-during! Amen.

6:17  Those rich in the present age charge thou not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment; --

6:18  to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,

6:19  treasuring up to themselves a right foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life age-during.

6:20  O Timotheus, the thing entrusted guard thou, avoiding the profane vain-words and opposition of the falsely-named knowledge,

6:21  which certain professing--concerning the faith did swerve; the grace is with you. Amen.
