 not to be haughty or to set their hope on riches, which are uncertain, ▼
▼tn Grk “in uncertainty.”
 but on God who richly provides us with all things for our enjoyment. 18Tell them to do good, ▼
▼tn Grk “to do good” (the continuation of 6:17). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started at the beginning of v. 18.
 to be rich in good deeds, to be generous givers, sharing with others. ▼
▼tn Grk “to be generous,” “sharing.”
 19In this way they will save up ▼
▼tn Grk “saving up” (the continuation of 6:18). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started at the beginning of v. 19.
 a treasure for themselves as a firm foundation ▼
▼tn Grk “treasuring up a good foundation.”
 for the future and so lay hold of ▼
▼tn Grk “that they may lay hold of.”
 what is truly life.
