1 Timothy 6:16 in Context — 1 Timothy 6

14 que guardes este mandamento sem mancha nem motivo de repreensão, até a aparição do nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo.

15 Essa nos seus tempos mostrará o bendito e único Soberano, o Rei dos reis, e Senhor dos senhores;

16 o único a ter imortalidade, e que habita em luz inacessível; aquele a quem nenhum ser humano viu, nem pode ver; a ele seja honra e poder para sempre! Amém.

17 Manda aos ricos desta era que não sejam soberbos, nem ponham a esperança na incerteza das riquezas, mas sim no Deus vivo, que nos dá abundantemente todas as coisas [que são] para alegria;

18 que façam o bem, sejam ricos em boas obras, dispostos a compartilhar, e generosos.
