2 Timothy 2:16

16Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly.

16But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for 2:16 Lit they will make further progress in ungodlinessit will lead to further ungodliness,

16But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness,

16But avoid all irreverent babble and godless chatter [with its profane, empty words], for it will lead to further ungodliness,

16But avoid irreverent, empty chatter, which will only lead to more ungodliness,

16Stay away from godless chatter. Those who take part in it will become more and more ungodly.
