1 Timothy 6
1 Let as many as are slaves under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, that the name of God and the doctrine not be blasphemed.
ⲁ̅ⲛⲉⲧϣⲟⲟⲡ ϩⲁ ⲡⲛⲁϩⲃⲉϥ ⲛϩⲙϩⲁⲗ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩⲧⲁⲓⲉ ⲛⲉⲩϫⲓⲥⲟⲟⲩⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲁⲉⲓⲟ ⲛⲓⲙ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲛⲛⲉⲩϫⲓⲟⲩⲁ ⲉⲡⲣⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲧⲉⲥⲃⲱ
2 Those who have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brothers, but rather let them serve them, because those who partake of the benefit are believing and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.

3 If anyone teaches a different doctrine, and does not consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Yeshua Meshikha, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,
ⲅ̅ⲡⲉⲧϯ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲕⲉⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲛϥϯ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲟϫ ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲥⲃⲱ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲉⲩⲥⲉⲃⲏⲥ
4 he is conceited, knowing nothing, but obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles, from which come envy, strife, reviling, evil suspicions,

5 constant friction of people of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain.

6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
ⲋ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲇⲉ ⲛϩⲏⲩ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲱϣⲉ
7 For we brought nothing into the world, so neither can we carry anything out.

8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that.
ⲏ̅ⲉⲩⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛⲧⲉϩⲣⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲑⲃⲥⲱ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲣⲱϣⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ
9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as plunge people into ruin and destruction.

10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
ⲓ̅ⲧⲛⲟⲩⲛⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲙⲁⲓϩⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉϩⲟⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲡⲗⲁⲛⲁ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁⲩ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉϩⲉⲛϣⲥⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲛⲁϣⲱⲟⲩ
11 But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ⲱ ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲱⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲛⲁⲓ ⲡⲱⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲧⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥⲩⲛⲏ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲉⲩⲥⲉⲃⲏⲥ ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲑⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ ⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲙⲣⲁϣ
12 Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold of the everlasting life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. (aiōnios g166)

13 I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Meshikha Yeshua, who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,

15 which in its own times he will show, who is the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;

17 Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be haughty, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy; (aiōn g165)

18 that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

19 laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold of that which is truly life.

20 Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of the knowledge which is falsely so called;
