I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

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.

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.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

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.

But godliness with contentment is great gain.
