1 Timothy 6:5

6:5 and constant bickering by people corrupted in their minds and deprived of the truth, who suppose that godliness ⁸  is a way of making a profit.

[2:2]  ¹ tn For “even for kings” the Greek says simply “for kings.”

[3:7]  ¹ tn Or “have a good reputation with”; Grk “have a good testimony from.”

[3:7]  ² tn Grk “the ones outside.”

[3:7]  ³ tn Or “be trapped like the devil was”; Grk “fall into the trap of the devil.” The parallel in 2 Tim 2:26 supports the rendering given in the text.

[5:5]  ¹ tn Or “left all alone.”

[5:8]  ¹ tn That is, “his own relatives.”

[5:14]  ¹ tn Grk “for the sake of reviling.”

[6:5]  ¹ tc Although most witnesses, including some early versions and fathers (D² Ψ Ï sy Cyp Lcf Ambst), have ἀφίστασο ἀπὸ τῶν τοιούτων (afistaso apo’ twn toioutwn, “stay away from such things!”) after εὐσεβείαν (eusebeian, “godliness”; thus, “who suppose that godliness is a way of making a profit; stay away from such things!”), there seems to be little good reason for this clause’s omission in some of the oldest and best witnesses (א A D* F G 048 6 33 81 1175 1739 1881 lat co). It is likely that it crept into the text early, perhaps as a marginal comment, but it should not be considered authentic in light of the strong external evidence against it.
