17. Command those who are rich with things of this world not to be proud. Tell them to hope in God, not in their uncertain riches. God richly gives us everything to enjoy.
18. Tell the rich people to do good, to be rich in doing good deeds, to be generous and ready to share.
19. By doing that, they will be saving a treasure for themselves as a strong foundation for the future. Then they will be able to have the life that is true life.
20. Timothy, guard what God has trusted to you. Stay away from foolish, useless talk and from the arguments of what is falsely called “knowledge.”
21. By saying they have that “knowledge,” some have missed the true faith.Grace be with you.
