1 Timothy 4:13-16

A Good Servant of Christ Jesus

¹³ Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, to teaching. ¹⁴ _u Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you _v by prophecy when the council of elders _w laid their hands on you. ¹⁵ Practice these things, immerse yourself in them, ₁ so that _x all may see your progress. ¹⁶ _y Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. Persist in this, for by so doing you will save _z both yourself and _a your hearers.
