1 Timotius 5:8

5:8 But if someone does not provide for his own, ¹  especially his own family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

1 Timotius 6:6-8

6:6 Now godliness combined with contentment brings great profit. 6:7 For we have brought nothing into this world and so ²  we cannot take a single thing out either. 6:8 But if we have food and shelter, we will be satisfied with that. ³ 

[5:8]  ¹ tn That is, “his own relatives.”

[6:7]  ² tc The Greek conjunction ὅτι usually means “because,” but here it takes the sense “so that” (see BDAG 732 s.v. 5.c). This unusual sense led to textual variation as scribes attempted to correct what appeared to be an error: D* and a few versional witnesses read ἀληθές ὅτι (“it is true that”), and א² D² Ψ Ï read δῆλον ὅτι (“it is clear that”). Thus the simple conjunction is preferred on internal as well as external grounds, supported by א* A F G 33 81 1739 1881 pc.

[6:8]  ³ tn Grk “with these.”
