1 Timothy 6:11

---

← 1 Timothy 6:10	1 Timothy 6:11 (KJV)	1 Timothy 6:12 →
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.	But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.	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.
