1 Timothy 4:10-12

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ We have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of everyone, but especially of those who have faith. This is why we work and struggle so hard.^[a]

¹¹ Teach these things and tell everyone to do what you say. ¹² Don't let anyone make fun of you, just because you are young. Set an example for other followers by what you say and do, as well as by your love, faith, and purity.
