Holman Christian Standard Bible

1 Timothy 6:4-8 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

4. he is conceited, understanding nothing, but has a sick interest in disputes and arguments over words. From these come envy, quarreling, slander, evil suspicions,

5. and constant disagreement among people whose minds are depraved and deprived of the truth, who imagine that godliness is a way to material gain.

6. But godliness with contentment is a great gain.

7. For we brought nothing into the world,and we can take nothing out.

8. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.
