Bible Passage of the Week
提 摩 太 前 書 6:6-10

Chinese Union Version (Traditional) (CUV)

6 然 而 , 敬 虔 加 上 知 足 的 心 便 是 大 利 了 ;

7 因 為 我 們 沒 有 帶 甚 麼 到 世 上 來 , 也 不 能 帶 甚 麼 去 。

8 只 要 有 衣 有 食 , 就 當 知 足 。

9 但 那 些 想 要 發 財 的 人 , 就 陷 在 迷 惑 、 落 在 網 羅 和 許 多 無 知 有 害 的 私 慾 裡 , 叫 人 沉 在 敗 壞 和 滅 亡 中 。

10 貪 財 是 萬 惡 之 根 。 有 人 貪 戀 錢 財 , 就 被 引 誘 離 了 真 道 , 用 許 多 愁 苦 把 自 己 刺 透 了 。
