Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
Conversation, х ho (G3588) tropos (G5158)] - 'manner of life.' Lust and lucre follow one another as closely akin, both seducing the heart from the Creator to the creature.
Such things as ye have, х tois (G3588) parousin (G3918)] - 'present things' (Philippians 4:11).
I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee - so to Jacob, Genesis 28:15; to Israel, Deuteronomy 31:6; Deuteronomy 31:8; to Joshua, Joshua 1:5; to Solomon, 1 Chronicles 28:20. It is a divine adage. What was said to them extends to us. He will neither withdraw His presence ("never leave") nor His help ("nor forsake thee") (Bengel).
