17  Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to put their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who provides all things richly for us to enjoy,

17  Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;

18  to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous, sharing,

18  that they do good, that they be rich in good works, that they be ready to distribute, willing to communicate;

18  and to do good, to become rich in good works, to donate readily, to share,

19  storing up for yourselves a good foundation for the future, that they may lay hold of eternal life.

19  laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on the life which is [life] indeed.

19  to gather for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may obtain true life.
