1 Timothy 6:4-10 he is one that exalteth himself, while he knoweth nothing; and he languisheth in the search and inquiry about words, from which come envy, and contention, and railing, and evil surmising,

Murdock⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ he is one that exalteth himself, while he knoweth nothing; and he languisheth in the search and inquiry about words, from which come envy, and contention, and railing, and evil surmising, ⁵ and the disputation of men, whose minds are corrupt and destitute of the truth, and who suppose that gain is godliness. But from these stand thou aloof. ⁶ But great is our gain, which is the fear of God, with the use of our competence. ⁷ For we brought nothing into the world; and we know that we can carry nothing out of it. ⁸ Therefore, food and clothing satisfy us. ⁹ But they who desire to become rich, fall into temptations, and into snares, and into many lusts which are foolish and hurtful, and which drown men in destruction and perdition: ¹⁰ for the love of money is the root of all these evils. And there are some who, coveting it, have erred from the faith, and brought themselves into many sorrows.
