1 Timothy 4:11-15 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

11. Command and teach these things.

12. Let no one despise your youth; instead, you should be an example to the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

13. Until I come, give your attention to public reading, exhortation, and teaching.

14. Do not neglect the gift that is in you; it was given to you through prophecy, with the laying on of hands by the council of elders.

15. Practice these things; be committed to them, so that your progress may be evident to all.

1 Timothy 4
