1 Timothy 4:7 in the King James Version
But refuse profane and old wives’ fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.
Context
6 If 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.
7 But refuse profane and old wives’ fables. Exercise yourself toward godliness.
8 For 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.
