1 Timothy 6:4-10

Lamsa(i) 4 He is proud, knowing nothing, and dotes on an argument and quarrels on the use of a word and this is the cause of envy and controversy and blasphemy and evil premeditation, 5 And strife among men whose minds are corrupt and who are cut off from the truth and who think worshipping God is for worldly gain; you keep away from such things. 6 But our gain is greater contentment, for it is the worship of God. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 Therefore, let us be satisfied with food and clothing; 9 For those who desire to be rich, fall into temptations, and snares, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in degeneration and destruction. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: and there are some men who have coveted it and have thereby erred from the faith, they have brought to themselves many sorrows.
