1 Timothy 6:20

¹⁸ Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, and to be generous and ready to share,

¹⁹ treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.

O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid irreverent, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of so-called “knowledge,”

²¹ which some have professed and thus swerved away from the faith. Grace be with you all.
