| 6:1 | What euere seruauntis ben vndur yok, deme thei her lordis worthi al onour, lest the name of the Lord and the doctryn be blasfemyd. |
| 6:2 | And thei that han feithful lordis, dispise hem not, for thei ben britheren; but more serue thei, for thei ben feithful and louyd, whiche ben parceneris of benefice. Teche thou these thingis, and moneste thou these thingis. |
| 6:3 | If ony man techith othere wise, and acordith not to the hoolsum wordis of oure Lord Jhesu Crist, and to that teching that is bi pitee, |

| 6:5 | that ben corrupt in soule, and that ben pryued fro treuthe, that demen wynnyng to be pitee. |
| 6:6 | But a greet wynnyng is pitee, with sufficience. |
| 6:7 | For we brouyten in no thing in to this world, and no doute, that we moun not bere `awey ony thing. |
| 6:8 | But we hauynge foodis, and with what thingus we schulen be hilid, be we paied with these thingis. |
| 6:9 | For thei that wolen be maad riche, fallen in to temptacioun, and `in to snare of the deuel, and in to many vnprofitable desiris and noyous, whiche drenchen men in to deth and perdicioun. |
| 6:10 | For the rote of alle yuelis is coueytise, which summen coueitinge erriden fro the feith, and bisettiden hem with many sorewis. |
| 6:11 | But, thou, man of God, fle these thingis; but sue thou riytwisnesse, pite, feith, charite, pacience, myldenesse. |
| 6:12 | Stryue thou a good strijf of feith, catche euerlastinge lijf, in to which thou art clepid, and hast knoulechid a good knouleching bifor many witnessis. |
| 6:13 | I comaunde to thee bifor God, that quikeneth alle thingis, and bifor Crist Jhesu, that yeldide a witnessing vnder Pilat of Pounce, a good confessioun, |
| 6:14 | that thou kepe the comaundement with out wem, with out repreef, in to the comyng of oure Lord Jhesu Crist; |
| 6:15 | whom the blessid and aloone miyti king of kyngis and Lord of lordis schal schewe in his tymes. |
| 6:16 | Which aloone hath vndeedlynesse, and dwellith in liyt, to which no man may come; whom no man say, nether may se; to whom glorie, and honour, and empire be with out ende. |
| 6:17 | Amen. Comaunde thou to the riche men of this world, that thei vndurstonde not hiyli, nether that thei hope in vncerteynte of richessis, but in the lyuynge God, that yyueth to vs alle thingis plenteuously to vse; |
| 6:18 | to do wel, to be maad riche in good werkis, liytli to yyue, |
| 6:19 | to comyne, to tresoure to hem silf a good foundement in to tyme to comynge, that thei catche euerlastinge lijf. |
| 6:20 | Thou Tymothe, kepe the thing bitakun to thee, eschewynge cursid noueltees of voicis, and opynyouns of fals name of kunnyng; |

| 6:1 | Let as many seruaunts as are vnder the yoke, count their masters worthie of all honour, that the Name of God, and his doctrine be not euill spoken of. |
| 6:2 | And they which haue beleeuing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren, but rather doe seruice, because they are faithfull, and beloued, and partakers of the benefite. These things teach and exhort. |
| 6:3 | If any man teach otherwise, and consenteth not to the wholesome wordes of our Lord Iesus Christ, and to the doctrine, which is according to godlinesse, |
| 6:4 | He is puft vp and knoweth nothing, but doteth about questions and strife of words, whereof commeth enuie, strife, railings, euill surmisings, |
| 6:5 | Frowarde disputations of men of corrupt mindes and destitute of ye trueth, which thinke that gaine is godlines: from such separate thy selfe. |
| 6:6 | But godlinesse is great gaine, if a man be content with that he hath. |
| 6:7 | For we brought nothing into the world, and it is certaine, that we can carie nothing out. |
| 6:8 | Therefore when wee haue foode and raiment, let vs therewith be content. |
| 6:9 | For they that will be rich, fall into tentation and snares, and into many foolish and noysome lustes, which drowne men in perdition and destruction. |
| 6:10 | For the desire of money is the roote of all euill, which while some lusted after, they erred from the faith, and pearced themselues through with many sorowes. |
| 6:11 | But thou, O man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousnesse, godlines, faith, loue, patience, and meekenes. |
| 6:12 | Fight the good fight of faith: lay holde of eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. |
| 6:13 | I charge thee in the sight of God, who quickeneth all thinges, and before Iesus Christ, which vnder Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession, |
| 6:14 | That thou keepe this commandement without spot, and vnrebukeable, vntill the appearing of our Lord Iesus Christ, |
| 6:15 | Which in due time hee shall shewe, that is blessed and Prince onely, the King of Kings and Lord of Lordes, |
| 6:16 | Who onely hath immortalitie, and dwelleth in the light that none can attaine vnto, whom neuer man sawe, neither can see, vnto whome bee honour and power euerlasting, Amen. |
| 6:17 | Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high minded, and that they trust not in vncertaine riches, but in the liuing God, (which giueth vs aboundantly, all things to enioy) |
| 6:18 | That they doe good, and be riche in good woorkes, and readie to distribute, and comunicate, |
| 6:19 | Laying vp in store for themselues a good foundation against the time to come, that they may obteine eternall life. |
| 6:20 | O Timotheus, keepe that which is committed vnto thee, and auoide prophane and vaine babblings, and oppositios of science falsely so called, |
| 6:21 | Which while some professe, they haue erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee, Amen. |
| 6:1 | Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and His doctrine may not be blasphemed. |
| 6:2 | And those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brethren, but rather serve them because those who are benefited are faithful and beloved. Teach and exhort these things. |
| 6:3 | If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness, |
| 6:4 | he is proud, knowing nothing, but is obsessed with disputes and arguments over words, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions, |
| 6:5 | useless disputations of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that gain is godliness. From such withdraw yourself. |
| 6:6 | Now godliness with contentment is great gain. |
| 6:7 | Because, we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. |
| 6:8 | And having food and clothing, with these we should be content. |
| 6:9 | But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. |
| 6:10 | Because, the love of money is the root of all evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their covetousness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. |
| 6:11 | But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. |
| 6:12 | Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed a good confession before of many witnesses. |
| 6:13 | I command you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed a good confession before Pontius Pilate, |
| 6:14 | that you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, |
| 6:15 | which He will reveal in His own timeframe, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords, |
| 6:16 | who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen. |
| 6:17 | Command those who are rich in this present age not to be arrogant, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy. |
| 6:18 | That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to share, |
| 6:19 | storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life. |
| 6:20 | O Timothy! Guard that which was committed to your trust, avoiding profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called science, |
| 6:21 | by professing it some have strayed concerning the faith. Grace be with you. Amen. |
