| 1 | But the Spirit speaks expressly, that in latter times some shall apostatise from the faith, giving their mind to deceiving spirits and teachings of demons |
| 2 | speaking lies in hypocrisy, cauterised as to their own conscience, |
| 3 | forbidding to marry, [bidding] to abstain from meats, which God has created for receiving with thanksgiving for them who are faithful and know the truth. |
| 4 | For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing [is] to be rejected, being received with thanksgiving; |
| 5 | for it is sanctified by God's word and freely addressing [him]. |
| 6 | Laying these things before the brethren, thou wilt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which thou hast fully followed up. |
| 7 | But profane and old wives' fables avoid, but exercise thyself unto piety; |
| 8 | for bodily exercise is profitable for a little, but piety is profitable for everything, having promise of life, of the present one, and of that to come. |

| 10 | for, for this we labour and suffer reproach, because we hope in a living God, who is preserver of all men, specially of those that believe. |

| 12 | Let no one despise thy youth, but be a model of the believers, in word, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. |
| 13 | Till I come, give thyself to reading, to exhortation, to teaching. |

| 15 | Occupy thyself with these things; be wholly in them, that thy progress may be manifest to all. |
| 16 | Give heed to thyself and to the teaching; continue in them; for, doing this, thou shalt save both thyself and those that hear thee.
