5 mischievous opinions, and a familiarity with pernicious ignorant impostors, who consider religion only as it makes for their gain. 6 Religion indeed with contentment leads to great gain. 7 as we brought nothing into the world, certain it is, we can carry nothing away, having therefore food and raiment, 8 we ought to think that sufficient, but they who will be rich, expose 9 themselves to temptations and snares, and to many foolish noxious passions, which plunge men into ruin and perdition, for the love of money is the root of all evil: 10 which some having obtain'd, have revolted from the faith, and brought upon themselves variety of piercing pains. 1 Timothy 6:5-10, Mace New Testament.
