1 Timothy 6:19 in Context — 1 Timothy 6
17 Recommande aux riches du présent siècle de ne pas être orgueilleux, et de ne pas mettre leur espérance dans des richesses incertaines, mais de la mettre en Dieu, qui nous donne avec abondance toutes choses pour que nous en jouissions.
18 Recommande-leur de faire du bien, d’être riches en bonnes œuvres, d’avoir de la libéralité, de la générosité,
19 et de s’amasser ainsi pour l’avenir un trésor placé sur un fondement solide, afin de saisir la vie véritable.
20 O Timothée, garde le dépôt, en évitant les discours vains et profanes,
21 et les disputes de la fausse science dont font profession quelques-uns, qui se sont ainsi détournés de la foi. Que la grâce soit avec vous!
