As I besought thee to remain in Ephesus, going into Macedonia, that thou mightest proclaim to some not to teach another doctrine,

Which some having missed turned away to vain discourse

Having faith, and a good consciousness; which some having rejected concerning faith suffered shipwreck:

And the Spirit says expressly, that in later times some shall be removed from the faith, holding to deceitful spirits, and doctrines of evil spirits;

And at the same time also they learn to be idle, going round about the houses; and not only idle, but also indulging in idle talk, and occupied with unnecessary things, speaking things not becoming.

For already have some turned aside after Satan.

Some men's sins are manifest, going before to judgment; and also to some they follow in the train.

Likewise also the good works of some are manifest; and having these otherwise, it cannot be hid.

For the root of all evils is the love of money: which some striving for, have been led astray from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many pains.

Which some proclaiming have missed their aim concerning the faith. Grace with thee. Amen.
