1 Tm 6:3-10

3Whoever teaches something different and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the religious teaching^c 4is conceited, understanding nothing, and has a morbid disposition for arguments and verbal disputes. From these come envy, rivalry, insults, evil suspicions, 5and mutual friction among people with corrupted minds, who are deprived of the truth, supposing religion to be a means of gain.^d 6^* Indeed, religion with contentment is a great gain.^e 7For we brought nothing into the world, just as we shall not be able to take anything out of it.^f 8If we have food and clothing, we shall be content with that.^g 9Those who want to be rich are falling into temptation and into a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires, which plunge them into ruin and destruction.^h 10For the love of money is the root of all evils, and some people in their desire for it have strayed from the faith and have pierced themselves with many pains.
