1 Timothy 1:4-9 American Standard Version (ASV)

4. neither to give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questionings, rather than a dispensation of God which is in faith; so do I now.

5. But the end of the charge is love out of a pure heart and a good conscience and faith unfeigned:

6. from which things some having swerved have turned aside unto vain talking;

7. desiring to be teachers of the law, though they understand neither what they say, nor whereof they confidently affirm.

8. But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully,

9. as knowing this, that law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
