1 Timothy 6
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
7 Ref For we came into the world with nothing, and we are not able to take anything out;
8 Ref But if we have food and a roof over us, let that be enough.
9 Ref But those who have a desire for wealth are falling into danger, and are taken as in a net by a number of foolish and damaging desires, through which men are overtaken by death and destruction.
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
7 Ref for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out;
8 Ref but having food and covering we shall be therewith content.
9 Ref 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.
King James Version (KJV)
