1 Timothy 4
American Standard Version
Translation: ASV
1But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,Select 1 Timothy 4:1
2through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron;Select 1 Timothy 4:2
3forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by them that believe and know the truth.Select 1 Timothy 4:3
4For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, if it be received with thanksgiving:Select 1 Timothy 4:4
5for it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.Select 1 Timothy 4:5
6If thou put the brethren in mind of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast followed until now:Select 1 Timothy 4:6
7but refuse profane and old wives’ fables. And exercise thyself unto godliness:Select 1 Timothy 4:7
8for bodily exercise is profitable for a little; but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life which now is, and of that which is to come.Select 1 Timothy 4:8
9Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation.Select 1 Timothy 4:9
10For to this end we labor and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of them that believe.Select 1 Timothy 4:10
11These things command and teach.Select 1 Timothy 4:11
12Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an ensample to them that believe, in word, in manner of life, in love, in faith, in purity.Select 1 Timothy 4:12
13Till I come, give heed to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.Select 1 Timothy 4:13
14Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.Select 1 Timothy 4:14
15Be diligent in these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy progress may be manifest unto all.Select 1 Timothy 4:15
16Take heed to thyself, and to thy teaching. Continue in these things; for in doing this thou shalt save both thyself and them that hear thee.Select 1 Timothy 4:16
