'Lovers' in the Bible

And, truly, you are lovers of all the brothers in Macedonia; but it is our desire that your love may be increased still more;

For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, uplifted in pride, given to bitter words, going against the authority of their fathers, never giving praise, having no religion,

One of their prophets has said, The men of Crete are ever false, evil beasts, lovers of food, hating work.
