⁷ They want to be teachers of the law. And they are very sure about that law. But they don't know what they are talking about. ⁸ We know that the law is good if it is used properly. ⁹ We also know that the law isn't made for godly people. It is made for those who break the law. It is for those who refuse to obey. It is for ungodly and sinful people. It is for those who aren't holy and who don't believe. It is for those who kill their fathers or mothers. It is for murderers. ¹⁰ It is for those who commit adultery. It is for those who have a twisted view of sex. It is for people who buy and sell slaves. It is for liars. It is for those who give witness to things that aren't true. And it is for anything else that is the opposite of true teaching. ¹¹ True teaching agrees with the glorious good news of the blessed God. He trusted me with that good news. ¹² I am thankful to Christ Jesus our Lord. He has given me strength. I thank him that he considered me faithful. And I thank him for appointing me to serve him.
