1 Timothy 2:2

2:2 even for kings ¹  and all who are in authority, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

1 Timothy 4:12

4:12 Let no one look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in your speech, conduct, love, faithfulness, ²  and purity.

1 Timothy 4:14

4:14 Do not neglect the spiritual gift you have, ³  given to you and confirmed by prophetic words ⁴  when the elders laid hands on you. ⁵ 

1 Timothy 5:8

5:8 But if someone does not provide for his own, ⁶  especially his own family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

1 Timothy 5:21

5:21 Before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels, I solemnly charge you to carry out these commands without prejudice or favoritism of any kind. ⁷ 

1 Timothy 6:10

6:10 For the love of money is the root ⁸  of all evils. ⁹  Some people in reaching for it have strayed from the faith and stabbed themselves with many pains.

¹ tn For “even for kings” the Greek says simply “for kings.”

² tn Or “faith.”

³ tn Grk “in you.”

⁴ tn Grk “which was given to you through prophecy.” Here as in 2:15 the preposition “through” denotes not “means” but accompanying circumstances: “accompanied by prophecy.”

⁵ tn Grk “with the imposition of the hands of the presbytery” (i.e., the council of elders).

⁴ tn That is, “his own relatives.”

⁵ tn Grk “doing nothing according to partiality.”

⁶ tn This could be taken to mean “a root,” but the phrase “of all evils” clearly makes it definite. This seems to be not entirely true to life (some evils are unrelated to love of money), but it should be read as a case of hyperbole (exaggeration to make a point more strongly).

⁷ tn Many translations render this “of all kinds of evil,” especially to allow for the translation “a root” along with it. But there is no parallel for taking a construction like this to mean “all kinds of” or “every kind of.” The normal sense is “all evils.”
