ગુજરાતીતિમોથીને પહેલો પત્ર ૪:૭
પણ દુન્યવી અને મૂર્ખ દંતકથાઓથી દૂર રહી, તું પોતાને ઈશ્વરપરાયણતા માટે તાલીમ આપ;
हिन्दी1 तीमुथियुस ४:७
पर अशुद्ध और बूढ़ियों की सी कहानियों से अलग रह; और भक्ति में खुद को प्रशिक्षित कर।

In context

5For it is sanctified through the word of God and prayer.

6If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

7But refuse profane and old wives’ fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness.

8For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now and of that which is to come.

9This saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance.
