1 Timothy 6:9 in Context — 1 Timothy 6
7 Pois nada trouxemos ao mundo, e [é] evidente que nada podemos levar dele.
8 Mas se tivermos alimento e algo com que nos cobrirmos, estejamos contentes com isso.
9 Mas os que querem ser ricos caem em tentação, armadilha, e em muitos desejos insensatos e nocivos, que afundam as pessoas na destruição e perdição.
10 Pois o amor ao dinheiro é raiz de todos os tipos de males. Alguns o cobiçam, e então se desviaram da fé, e perfuraram a si mesmos com muitas dores.
11 Porém tu, homem de Deus, foge dessas coisas. Segue a justiça, a devoção divina, a fé, o amor, a paciência, a mansidão.
