How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, + night and day +001:004 longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be + filled with joy; +001:005 having been reminded of the unfeigned faith that is in you; + which lived first in your grandmother Lois, and your + mother Eunice, and, I am persuaded, in you also. +001:006 For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift + of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. +001:007 For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, + love, and self-control. +001:008 Therefore don't be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, + nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News + according to the power of God, +001:009 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according + to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, + which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal, +001:010 but has now been revealed by the appearing of our + Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life + and immortality to light through the Good News. +001:011 For this, I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, + and a teacher of the Gentiles. +001:012 For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, + for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded + that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him + against that day. +001:013 Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, + in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. +001:014 That good thing which was committed to you, guard through + the Holy Spirit who dwells in us. +001:015 This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me; + of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes. +001:016 May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, + for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain, +001:017 but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently, and found me +001:018 (the Lord grant to him to find the Lord's mercy in that day); + and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well. +002:001 You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is + in Christ Jesus. +002:002 The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, + commit the same to faithful men, who will be able to + teach others also. +002:003 You therefore must endure hardship, as a good soldier + of Christ Jesus. +002:004 No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, + that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier. +002:005 Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn't crowned unless + he has competed by the rules. +002:006 The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share + of the crops. +002:007 Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding + in all things. +002:008 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, + according to my Good News, +002:009 in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. + But God's word isn't chained. +002:010 Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones' sake, that they + also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus + with eternal glory. +002:011 This saying is faithful: "For if we died with him, we will + also live with him. +002:012 If we endure, we will also reign with him. If we deny him, + he also will deny us. +002:013 If we are faithless, he remains faithful. He can't deny himself." +002:014 Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight + of the Lord, that they don't argue about words, to no profit, + to the subverting of those who hear. +002:015 Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, + a workman who doesn't need to be ashamed, properly handling + the Word of Truth. +002:016 But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in ungodliness, +002:017 and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom is + Hymenaeus and Philetus; +002:018 men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection + is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some. +002:019 However God's firm foundation stands, having this seal, + "The Lord knows those who are his,"{Numbers 16:5} and, + "Let every one who names the name of the Lord{TR reads "Christ" + instead of "the Lord"} depart from unrighteousness." +002:020 Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and + of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor, + and some for dishonor. +002:021 If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel + for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use, + prepared for every good work. +002:022 Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, + and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. +002:023 But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that + they generate strife. +002:024 The Lord's servant must not quarrel, but be gentle towards all, + able to teach, patient, +002:025 in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may + give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth, +002:026 and they may recover themselves out of the devil's snare, + having been taken captive by him to his will. +003:001 But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come. +003:002 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, + arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, +003:003 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, + without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, +003:004 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather + than lovers of God; +003:005 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof. + Turn away from these, also. +003:006 For of these are those who creep into houses, and take captive + gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, +003:007 always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge + of the truth. +003:008 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so do these also oppose + the truth; men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. +003:009 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be + evident to all men, as theirs also came to be. +003:010 But you did follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, + patience, love, steadfastness, +003:011 persecutions, and sufferings: those things that happened to me + at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. + Out of them all the Lord delivered me. +003:012 Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus + will suffer persecution. +003:013 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, + deceiving and being deceived. +003:014 But you remain in the things which you have learned and have + been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them. +003:015 From infancy, you have known the sacred writings which are + able to make you wise for salvation through faith, which is + in Christ Jesus. +003:016 Every writing inspired by God{literally, God-breathed} is + profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, + and for instruction which is in righteousness, +003:017 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped + for every good work. +004:001 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, + who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing + and his Kingdom: +004:002 preach the word; be urgent in season and out of season; + reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all patience and teaching. +004:003 For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound + doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves + teachers after their own lusts; +004:004 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn + aside to fables. +004:005 But you be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do the work + of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry. +004:006 For I am already being offered, and the time of my + departure has come. +004:007 I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. + I have kept the faith. +004:008 From now on, there is stored up for me the crown of righteousness, + which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on + that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have + loved his appearing. +004:009 Be diligent to come to me soon, +004:010 for Demas left me, having loved this present world, and went + to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. +004:011 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you, + for he is useful to me for service. +004:012 But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus. +004:013 Bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus when you come, + and the books, especially the parchments. +004:014 Alexander, the coppersmith, did much evil to me. + The Lord will repay him according to his works, +004:015 of whom you also must beware; for he greatly opposed our words. +004:016 At my first defense, no one came to help me, but all left me. + May it not be held against them. +004:017 But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that through me + the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles + might hear; and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. +004:018 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will + preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom; to whom be the glory + forever and ever. Amen. +004:019 Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus. +004:020 Erastus remained at Corinth, but I left Trophimus at Miletus sick. +004:021 Be diligent to come before winter. Eubulus salutes you, + as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers. +004:022 The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be + with you.
