7 But have nothing to do with pointless and silly myths. 4:7 1Tm 1:4; 2Tm 4:4; Ti 1:14; 2Pt 1:16 Rather, train yourself in godliness. 4:7 2Pt 1:38 For the training of the body has limited benefit, 4:8 Col 2:23 but godliness is beneficial in every way, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come. 4:8 Ps 37:9,11; Pr 19:23; 22:4; Mt 6:33; Mk 10:30; Jn 12:25; Ac 13:48; 1Pt 3:9
