1 Timothy 6:9-12 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

9. For they that will become rich, fall into temptation, and into the snare of the devil, and into many unprofitable and hurtful desires, which drown men into destruction and perdition.

10. For the desire of money is the root of all evils; which some coveting have erred from the faith, and have entangled themselves in many sorrows.

11. But thou, O man of God, fly these things: and pursue justice, godliness, faith, charity, patience, mildness.

12. Fight the good fight of faith: lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art called, and hast confessed a good confession before many witnesses.
