'Godliness' in the Bible

on behalf of kings and all those who are in authority, in order that we may live a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

but with good deeds which are fitting for women who profess godliness.

And most certainly, great is the mystery of godliness: Who was revealed in the flesh, was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was proclaimed among the Gentiles, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.

But reject those {worthless myths told by elderly women}, and train yourself for godliness.

For the training of the body is {somewhat} profitable, but godliness is profitable for everything, [because it] holds promise for the present life and for the [life] to come.

If anyone teaches other doctrine and does not devote himself to the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching [that is] in accordance with godliness,

constant wrangling by people of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who consider godliness to be a means of gain.

But godliness with contentment is a great means of gain.

But you, O man of God, flee from these [things], and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patient endurance, gentleness.
