O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you. Avoid the irreverent babble and contradictions of what is falsely called“ knowledge,”

Timothy, guard what God has entrusted to you. Avoid godless, foolish discussions with those who oppose you with their so called knowledge.

Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding irreverent and empty speech and contradictions from what is falsely called knowledge.

Timothy, protect what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly, empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called“ knowledge”—

O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge—

O Timothy, guard that which is committed unto thee, turning away from the profane babblings and oppositions of the knowledge which is falsely so called;

O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane[ and] vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:

O Timothy, protect what has been entrusted to you. Avoid the profane chatter and absurdities of so- called“ knowledge.”

Timothy, guard that which is committed to you, turning away from the empty chatter and oppositions of what is falsely called knowledge,

See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ. (niv)

Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. (niv)

But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it,and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, (niv)

Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. (niv)

or to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. Such things promote controversial speculations rather than advancing God’s work— which is by faith. (niv)

Much in every way! First of all, the Jews have been entrusted with the very words of God. (niv)

to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, (niv)

So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter. (niv)

That is why I am suffering as I am. Yet this is no cause for shame, because I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day.What you heard from me, keep as the pattern of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus.Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you— guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us. (niv)

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written:“ He catches the wise in their craftiness”; (niv)

He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. (niv)

You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. (niv)

Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. (niv)

A group of Epicurean and Stoic philosophers began to debate with him. Some of them asked,“ What is this babbler trying to say?” Others remarked,“ He seems to be advocating foreign gods.” They said this because Paul was preaching the good news about Jesus and the resurrection. (niv)

Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly. (niv)

But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless. (niv)

Therefore, among God’s churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring. (niv)

For it is written:“ I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom,but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, (niv)

( All the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there spent their time doing nothing but talking about and listening to the latest ideas.) (niv)

that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me. (niv)

and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the merely human commands of those who reject the truth. (niv)

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. (niv)

But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. (niv)

Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you. (niv)

To Titus, my true son in our common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior. (niv)

they are conceited and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicionsand constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. (niv)

Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools (niv)
