<book name='1 Thessalonians' permalink='1-thessalonians' id='52'>
|
2
|
+
<chapter no='1'>
|
3
|
+
<verse no='1'>Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
4
|
+
<verse no='2'>We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;</verse>
|
5
|
+
<verse no='3'>Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;</verse>
|
6
|
+
<verse no='4'>Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.</verse>
|
7
|
+
<verse no='5'>For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.</verse>
|
8
|
+
<verse no='6'>And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
9
|
+
<verse no='7'>So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.</verse>
|
10
|
+
<verse no='8'>For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.</verse>
|
11
|
+
<verse no='9'>For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;</verse>
|
12
|
+
<verse no='10'>And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.</verse>
|
13
|
+
</chapter>
|
14
|
+
<chapter no='2'>
|
15
|
+
<verse no='1'>For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:</verse>
|
16
|
+
<verse no='2'>But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.</verse>
|
17
|
+
<verse no='3'>For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:</verse>
|
18
|
+
<verse no='4'>But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.</verse>
|
19
|
+
<verse no='5'>For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness:</verse>
|
20
|
+
<verse no='6'>Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.</verse>
|
21
|
+
<verse no='7'>But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:</verse>
|
22
|
+
<verse no='8'>So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.</verse>
|
23
|
+
<verse no='9'>For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.</verse>
|
24
|
+
<verse no='10'>Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:</verse>
|
25
|
+
<verse no='11'>As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,</verse>
|
26
|
+
<verse no='12'>That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.</verse>
|
27
|
+
<verse no='13'>For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.</verse>
|
28
|
+
<verse no='14'>For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:</verse>
|
29
|
+
<verse no='15'>Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:</verse>
|
30
|
+
<verse no='16'>Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.</verse>
|
31
|
+
<verse no='17'>But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.</verse>
|
32
|
+
<verse no='18'>Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.</verse>
|
33
|
+
<verse no='19'>For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?</verse>
|
34
|
+
<verse no='20'>For ye are our glory and joy.</verse>
|
35
|
+
</chapter>
|
36
|
+
<chapter no='3'>
|
37
|
+
<verse no='1'>Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it good to be left at Athens alone;</verse>
|
38
|
+
<verse no='2'>And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith:</verse>
|
39
|
+
<verse no='3'>That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto.</verse>
|
40
|
+
<verse no='4'>For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.</verse>
|
41
|
+
<verse no='5'>For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.</verse>
|
42
|
+
<verse no='6'>But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:</verse>
|
43
|
+
<verse no='7'>Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our affliction and distress by your faith:</verse>
|
44
|
+
<verse no='8'>For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.</verse>
|
45
|
+
<verse no='9'>For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God;</verse>
|
46
|
+
<verse no='10'>Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?</verse>
|
47
|
+
<verse no='11'>Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you.</verse>
|
48
|
+
<verse no='12'>And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:</verse>
|
49
|
+
<verse no='13'>To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.</verse>
|
50
|
+
</chapter>
|
51
|
+
<chapter no='4'>
|
52
|
+
<verse no='1'>Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.</verse>
|
53
|
+
<verse no='2'>For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.</verse>
|
54
|
+
<verse no='3'>For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:</verse>
|
55
|
+
<verse no='4'>That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;</verse>
|
56
|
+
<verse no='5'>Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:</verse>
|
57
|
+
<verse no='6'>That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.</verse>
|
58
|
+
<verse no='7'>For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.</verse>
|
59
|
+
<verse no='8'>He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.</verse>
|
60
|
+
<verse no='9'>But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.</verse>
|
61
|
+
<verse no='10'>And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;</verse>
|
62
|
+
<verse no='11'>And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;</verse>
|
63
|
+
<verse no='12'>That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.</verse>
|
64
|
+
<verse no='13'>But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.</verse>
|
65
|
+
<verse no='14'>For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.</verse>
|
66
|
+
<verse no='15'>For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.</verse>
|
67
|
+
<verse no='16'>For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:</verse>
|
68
|
+
<verse no='17'>Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.</verse>
|
69
|
+
<verse no='18'>Wherefore comfort one another with these words.</verse>
|
70
|
+
</chapter>
|
71
|
+
<chapter no='5'>
|
72
|
+
<verse no='1'>But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.</verse>
|
73
|
+
<verse no='2'>For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.</verse>
|
74
|
+
<verse no='3'>For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.</verse>
|
75
|
+
<verse no='4'>But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.</verse>
|
76
|
+
<verse no='5'>Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.</verse>
|
77
|
+
<verse no='6'>Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.</verse>
|
78
|
+
<verse no='7'>For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.</verse>
|
79
|
+
<verse no='8'>But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.</verse>
|
80
|
+
<verse no='9'>For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,</verse>
|
81
|
+
<verse no='10'>Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.</verse>
|
82
|
+
<verse no='11'>Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.</verse>
|
83
|
+
<verse no='12'>And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;</verse>
|
84
|
+
<verse no='13'>And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.</verse>
|
85
|
+
<verse no='14'>Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.</verse>
|
86
|
+
<verse no='15'>See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.</verse>
|
87
|
+
<verse no='16'>Rejoice evermore.</verse>
|
88
|
+
<verse no='17'>Pray without ceasing.</verse>
|
89
|
+
<verse no='18'>In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.</verse>
|
90
|
+
<verse no='19'>Quench not the Spirit.</verse>
|
91
|
+
<verse no='20'>Despise not prophesyings.</verse>
|
92
|
+
<verse no='21'>Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.</verse>
|
93
|
+
<verse no='22'>Abstain from all appearance of evil.</verse>
|
94
|
+
<verse no='23'>And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
95
|
+
<verse no='24'>Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.</verse>
|
96
|
+
<verse no='25'>Brethren, pray for us.</verse>
|
97
|
+
<verse no='26'>Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.</verse>
|
98
|
+
<verse no='27'>I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.</verse>
|
99
|
+
<verse no='28'>The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.</verse>

<book name='1 Timothy' permalink='1-timothy' id='54'>

<chapter no='1'>
|
3
|
+
<verse no='1'>Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;</verse>
|
4
|
+
<verse no='2'>Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.</verse>
|
5
|
+
<verse no='3'>As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,</verse>
|
6
|
+
<verse no='4'>Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.</verse>
|
7
|
+
<verse no='5'>Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:</verse>
|
8
|
+
<verse no='6'>From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;</verse>
|
9
|
+
<verse no='7'>Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.</verse>
|
10
|
+
<verse no='8'>But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully;</verse>
|
11
|
+
<verse no='9'>Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,</verse>
|
12
|
+
<verse no='10'>For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;</verse>
|
13
|
+
<verse no='11'>According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.</verse>
|
14
|
+
<verse no='12'>And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;</verse>
|
15
|
+
<verse no='13'>Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.</verse>
|
16
|
+
<verse no='14'>And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
17
|
+
<verse no='15'>This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.</verse>
|
18
|
+
<verse no='16'>Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.</verse>
|
19
|
+
<verse no='17'>Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.</verse>
|
20
|
+
<verse no='18'>This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare;</verse>
|
21
|
+
<verse no='19'>Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:</verse>
|
22
|
+
<verse no='20'>Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.</verse>
|
23
|
+
</chapter>
|
24
|
+
<chapter no='2'>
|
25
|
+
<verse no='1'>I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;</verse>
|
26
|
+
<verse no='2'>For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.</verse>
|
27
|
+
<verse no='3'>For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;</verse>
|
28
|
+
<verse no='4'>Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.</verse>
|
29
|
+
<verse no='5'>For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;</verse>
|
30
|
+
<verse no='6'>Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.</verse>
|
31
|
+
<verse no='7'>Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.</verse>
|
32
|
+
<verse no='8'>I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.</verse>
|
33
|
+
<verse no='9'>In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;</verse>
|
34
|
+
<verse no='10'>But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.</verse>
|
35
|
+
<verse no='11'>Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.</verse>
|
36
|
+
<verse no='12'>But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.</verse>
|
37
|
+
<verse no='13'>For Adam was first formed, then Eve.</verse>
|
38
|
+
<verse no='14'>And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.</verse>
|
39
|
+
<verse no='15'>Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.</verse>
|
40
|
+
</chapter>
|
41
|
+
<chapter no='3'>
|
42
|
+
<verse no='1'>This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.</verse>
|
43
|
+
<verse no='2'>A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;</verse>
|
44
|
+
<verse no='3'>Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;</verse>
|
45
|
+
<verse no='4'>One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;</verse>
|
46
|
+
<verse no='5'>(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)</verse>
|
47
|
+
<verse no='6'>Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.</verse>
|
48
|
+
<verse no='7'>Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.</verse>
|
49
|
+
<verse no='8'>Likewise must the deacons be grave, not doubletongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre;</verse>
|
50

<verse no='9'>Holding the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.</verse>
|
51
|
+
<verse no='10'>And let these also first be proved; then let them use the office of a deacon, being found blameless.</verse>
|
52
|
+
<verse no='11'>Even so must their wives be grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.</verse>
|
53
|
+
<verse no='12'>Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.</verse>
|
54
|
+
<verse no='13'>For they that have used the office of a deacon well purchase to themselves a good degree, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
55
|
+
<verse no='14'>These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:</verse>
|
56
|
+
<verse no='15'>But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.</verse>
|
57
|
+
<verse no='16'>And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.</verse>

<chapter no='4'>
|
60
|
+
<verse no='1'>Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;</verse>
|
61
|
+
<verse no='2'>Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;</verse>
|
62
|
+
<verse no='3'>Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.</verse>
|
63
|
+
<verse no='4'>For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:</verse>
|
64
|
+
<verse no='5'>For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.</verse>
|
65
|
+
<verse no='6'>If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.</verse>
|
66
|
+
<verse no='7'>But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.</verse>
|
67
|
+
<verse no='8'>For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.</verse>
|
68
|
+
<verse no='9'>This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation.</verse>
|
69
|
+
<verse no='10'>For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.</verse>
|
70
|

<verse no='11'>These things command and teach.</verse>
|
71
|

<verse no='12'>Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.</verse>
|
72
|
+
<verse no='13'>Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.</verse>
|
73
|

<verse no='14'>Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.</verse>
|
74
|
+
<verse no='15'>Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.</verse>
|
75
|
+
<verse no='16'>Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.</verse>

<chapter no='5'>
|
78
|
+
<verse no='1'>Rebuke not an elder, but intreat him as a father; and the younger men as brethren;</verse>
|
79
|
+
<verse no='2'>The elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, with all purity.</verse>
|
80
|
+
<verse no='3'>Honour widows that are widows indeed.</verse>
|
81
|
+
<verse no='4'>But if any widow have children or nephews, let them learn first to shew piety at home, and to requite their parents: for that is good and acceptable before God.</verse>
|
82
|
+
<verse no='5'>Now she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, trusteth in God, and continueth in supplications and prayers night and day.</verse>
|
83
|
+
<verse no='6'>But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.</verse>
|
84
|
+
<verse no='7'>And these things give in charge, that they may be blameless.</verse>
|
85
|
+
<verse no='8'>But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.</verse>
|
86
|
+
<verse no='9'>Let not a widow be taken into the number under threescore years old, having been the wife of one man.</verse>
|
87
|
+
<verse no='10'>Well reported of for good works; if she have brought up children, if she have lodged strangers, if she have washed the saints' feet, if she have relieved the afflicted, if she have diligently followed every good work.</verse>
|
88
|
+
<verse no='11'>But the younger widows refuse: for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ, they will marry;</verse>
|
89
|
+
<verse no='12'>Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.</verse>
|
90
|
+
<verse no='13'>And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.</verse>
|
91
|
+
<verse no='14'>I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully.</verse>
|
92
|
+
<verse no='15'>For some are already turned aside after Satan.</verse>
|
93
|
+
<verse no='16'>If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.</verse>
|
94
|
+
<verse no='17'>Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.</verse>
|
95
|
+
<verse no='18'>For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward.</verse>
|
96
|
+
<verse no='19'>Against an elder receive not an accusation, but before two or three witnesses.</verse>
|
97
|
+
<verse no='20'>Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.</verse>
|
98
|
+
<verse no='21'>I charge thee before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality.</verse>
|
99
|
+
<verse no='22'>Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men's sins: keep thyself pure.</verse>
|
100
|
+
<verse no='23'>Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.</verse>
|
101
|
+
<verse no='24'>Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after.</verse>

102
|

<verse no='25'>Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand; and they that are otherwise cannot be hid.</verse>

<chapter no='6'>
|
105
|

<verse no='1'>Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.</verse>
|
106
|
+
<verse no='2'>And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit. These things teach and exhort.</verse>
|
107
|
+
<verse no='3'>If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;</verse>
|
108
|

<verse no='4'>He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,</verse>
|
109
|
+
<verse no='5'>Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.</verse>
|
110
|
+
<verse no='6'>But godliness with contentment is great gain.</verse>
|
111
|
+
<verse no='7'>For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.</verse>
|
112
|
+
<verse no='8'>And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.</verse>
|
113
|
+
<verse no='9'>But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.</verse>
|
114
|
+
<verse no='10'>For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.</verse>
|
115
|
+
<verse no='11'>But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.</verse>
|
116
|
+
<verse no='12'>Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.</verse>

117

<verse no='13'>I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;</verse>

118
|

<verse no='14'>That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
119

<verse no='15'>Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;</verse>

120

<verse no='16'>Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.</verse>

121

<verse no='17'>Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;</verse>

122
|
+
<verse no='18'>That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;</verse>

123

<verse no='19'>Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.</verse>
|
124
|

<verse no='20'>O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:</verse>

125

<verse no='21'>Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.</verse>
