¹¹ Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content.

⁶ But godliness with contentment is great gain:

⁷ for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out;

⁸ but having food and covering we shall be therewith content.

⁹ But they that are minded to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and hurtful lusts, such as drown men in destruction and perdition.

⁵ Be ye free from the love of money; content with such things as ye have: for himself hath said, I will in no wise fail thee, neither will I in any wise forsake thee.

⁶ So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What shall man do unto me?

³¹ Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

³² For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

³³ But seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

³⁴ Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

⁸ Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but refuse, that I may gain Christ,

⁸ And God is able to make all grace abound unto you; that ye, having always all sufficiency in everything, may abound unto every good work:

³⁴ For ye both had compassion on them that were in bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of you possessions, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better possession and an abiding one.

²⁷ `in' labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

¹⁰ as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and `yet' possessing all things.

⁹ For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might become rich.

¹¹ Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling-place;

¹² and we toil, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure;

¹⁴ And soldiers also asked him, saying, And we, what must we do? And he said unto them, Extort from no man by violence, neither accuse `any one' wrongfully; and be content with your wages.

²⁰ And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,

²¹ And Moses was content to dwell with the man: and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
