1 Timothy 4:7
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But reject irreverent, silly myths. Instead, train yourself for godliness.
In context
5 because it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
6 By pointing out these things to the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished by the words of faith and sound instruction that you have followed.
7 But reject irreverent, silly myths. Instead, train yourself for godliness.
