1 Timothy 6:6-10

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

6 Actually, godliness is a great source of profit when it is combined with being happy with what you already have.

7 We didn't bring anything into the world and so we can't take anything out of it:

8 we'll be happy with food and clothing.

9 But people who are trying to get rich fall into temptation. They are trapped by many stupid and harmful passions that plunge people into ruin and destruction.

10 The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. Some have wandered away from the faith and have impaled themselves with a lot of pain because they made money their goal.

New International Version NIV

6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

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

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

9 Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.

10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
