1 Timothy 4:12

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

Let no one despise your youth, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Let no man despise your youth; but be an example to those who believe, in word, in your way of life, in love, in spirit, in faith, and in purity.
World English Bible (WEB)
Let{G2706} no man{G3367} despise{G2706}{(G5720)} thy{G4675} youth{G3503}; but{G235} be thou{G1096}{(G5737)} an example{G5179} of the believers{G4103}, in{G1722} word{G3056}, in{G1722} conversation{G391}, in{G1722} charity{G26}, in{G1722} spirit{G4151}, in{G1722} faith{G4102}, in{G1722} purity{G47}.
Strong's King James
(12) Let nobody look down on your youth but rather in speech, way of life, true love, believing faith and set-apart holiness, be an example to believers.
The F.O.G*
[12] Don't let anyone look down on you because you're young. Instead, let your life become a compelling example for all believers - in your words, your conduct, your love, your faith, and your moral purity. Let your youthful passion be channeled into living out these virtues so powerfully that age becomes irrelevant.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
let no one despise thy youth, but a pattern become thou of those believing in word, in behaviour, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity;
Young's Literal Translation
