Strong's King James
But reject worthless myths characteristic of the elderly and train yourself towards godliness.
The F.O.G
[7] Stay far away from those worthless myths that sound spiritual but lack substance - they're like junk food for the soul. Instead, train yourself rigorously in authentic godliness, like an athlete disciplining their body for competition.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and the profane and old women’s fables reject thou, and exercise thyself unto piety,
Young's Literal Translation
