Umm, where are you getting that from? Not that I think they are that
different in intent.

1 Timothy 6:10
"For the love of money is the root of all evel: which while some coveted
after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through
with many sorrows"

That King James which would be from where the quote probably originally
entered the English language

Ah, the NIV translates as you've quoted. The version as I quoted would
still be correct though.
