1 Timothy 4

Under each verse is the Greek source text word by word: each word with its transliteration, English gloss, Extended Strong's number and morphology code, and the editions that contain it: NA28 (Nestle-Aland), TR (Textus Receptus), or “other” where neither does. Where the TR has a different word, it is given too. Source text: STEPBible's TAGNT (CC BY 4.0)

Tap a word to mark it throughout the chapter; a morphology code explains itself the same way (in English).

  1. 1Now the Spirit expressly declares that in later times some will fall away from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and the teachings of demons;
