Waagize wale ambao ni matajiri wa ulimwengu huu waache kujivuna, wala wasiweke tumaini lao katika mali ambayo si ya hakika, bali waweke tumaini lao katika Mungu ambaye hutupatia vitu vyote kwa wingi ili tuvifurahie.
1 Timothy 6:17 in English

Instruct those who are rich in the present age not to be conceited and not to put their hope in the uncertainty of wealth, but in God, who richly provides all things for us to enjoy.
Context
15ambaye Mungu atamleta kwa wakati wake mwenyewe: yeye ahimidiwaye, aliye peke yake Mtawala, Mfalme wa wafalme, na Bwana wa mabwana, 16yeye peke yake ambaye hapatikani na mauti, na anakaa katika nuru isiyoweza kukaribiwa, ambaye hakuna mwanadamu aliyemwona wala awezaye kumwona. Heshima na uweza una yeye milele. Amen. 17Waagize wale ambao ni matajiri wa ulimwengu huu waache kujivuna, wala wasiweke tumaini lao katika mali ambayo si ya hakika, bali waweke tumaini lao katika Mungu ambaye hutupatia vitu vyote kwa wingi ili tuvifurahie. 18Waagize watende mema, wawe matajiri katika matendo mema, pia wawe wakarimu na walio tayari kushiriki mali zao na wengine. 19Kwa njia hii watajiwekea hazina kama msingi kwa ajili ya wakati ujao na hivyo watajipatia uzima, yaani, ule uzima ambao ni wa kweli.
