22 Flee also youthful desires; but follow after righteousness, faith, love, peace with them that call upon the Lord, out of a pure heart.
23 But avoid foolish and unlearned questions, knowing that they beget strife:
24 And a servant of the Lord must not strive, but be gentle toward all men,
25 apt to teach, patient of evil, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if haply God may give them repentance, to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And they may awake out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
