1 Tim. 6:9      1 Tim. 6:11

First letter to Timothy 6:10


For the love of money (literally "friendship with silver coins")
is a root of all (kinds of) evil [plural, as just mentioned in verses 4-5, 9].
[This proverb is often misquoted as "money is the root of all evil," which is not true. One example is the Fall, before money even existed, see Gen. 3. Paul instead states that it is the friendship and love of money that is the root of the evil mentioned in the previous verses. It is greed and covetousness that cause envy, slander, divisions, disputes, temptations, and harmful desires.] Some, in their attempts (longing for something without shying away from anything), have strayed from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains (pangs of conscience).
