1 Paul, the sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life in Christ Jesus, 2 To Timothy, dearly beloved child: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. 3 I have grace to God, whom I serve from the forefathers in pure consciousness, as I have continual remembrance concerning thee in my prayers night and day; 4 Desiring earnestly to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I may be filled with joy; 5 Receiving the report of unfeigned faith in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also. 6 By which I remind thee of the cause to light up the favor of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God gave not to us the spirit of timidity; but of power, and love, and of soundness of mind. 8 Therefore shouldest thou not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his imprisoned: but partake of afflictions with the good news according to the power of God; 9 Who having saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, given us in Christ Jesus before eternal times, 10 And now made manifest by the appearance of our Saviour Jesus Christ, having truly left death unemployed, and having brought life and immortality to light by the good news: 11 To which I was set a herald, and sent, teacher of the nations. 12 By which cause I also suffer these things: but I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able to watch my deposits to that day. 13 Hold the model of sound words, which thou didst hear of me, in the faith and love which in Christ Jesus. 14 Watch the good deposit by the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. 15 Thou knowest this, that all they dwelling in Asia turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. 16 May the Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus; for many times he refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my perplexity: 17 But, being in Rome, he sought me very diligently, and found. 18 (May, the Lord give to him to find mercy of the Lord in that day:) and in how many things he served in Ephesus, thou knowest better. 2 Thou therefore, my child, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus. 2 And what thou hast heard from me by many witnesses, these things lay by for faithful men, who will be sufficient to teach others also. 3 Thou therefore suffer ill treatment, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 4 None making war is entangled with the affairs of life: that he may please him having enlisted him. 5 And also if any contend for a prize, he is not crowned, except he contend for a prize lawfully. 6 The farmer toiling must first participate in the fruits. 7 Observe what I say; for may the Lord give to thee understanding in all things. 8 Remember Jesus Christ raised from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news: 9 In which I suffer ill treatment, to bonds, as an evil doer; but the word of God has not been bound. 10 For this I endure all things for the chosen, that they also might attain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 Faithful the word: For if we died together, we shall also live together: 12 If we endure, we shall also reign together: if we deny, he will also deny us: 13 If we believe not, he remains faithful: he cannot deny himself. 14 Put these things in mind, calling to witness before the Lord not to wrangle for nothing useful, to the subversion of them hearing. 15 Be earnest to present thyself acceptable to God, a worker without shame, dividing rightly the word of truth. 16 And avoid profane, empty discourses: for they will proceed to more of profanation. 17 And this word as a gangrene, will have an eating ulcer: of whom is Hymeneus and Philetus; 18 Who concerning the truth missed their aim, saying the rising up has already been; and they subvert the faith of some. 19 Truly the firm foundation of God has stood, having this seal, The Lord knows them being his. And, Let every one naming the name of Christ remove from iniquity. 20 And in a great house there is not only gold and silver vessels, but also wood and earthen; and some truly for honour, and some for dishonour. 21 If therefore any cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel for honour, consecrated, and useful for the master, prepared for every good work. 22 And flee youthful, eager desires: and follow justice, faith, love, peace, with them calling upon the Lord from a pure heart. 23 And silly and ignorant questions refuse, knowing that they produce strifes. 24 And the servant of the Lord must not contend; but be gentle to all, giving instruction, enduring evil, 25 In meekness instructing them being in a contrary state; lest perhaps God may give them repentance to the acknowledgment of the truth; 26 That they may return to a state of sobriety from the snare of the devil, being taken alive by him at his will. 3 And this know, that in the last days difficult times shall interpose. 2 For men shall be self-lovers, lovers of money, boastful, proud, slandering, disobedient to parents, unthankful, wicked, 3 Devoid of natural affection, not observing treaties, accusers, ungoverned, wild, not loving the good, 4 Traitors, rash, haughty, devoted to pleasure more than loving God; 5 Having a form of devotion, and having denied its power: and these renounce. 6 For of these are they going into houses, and taking captive little women heaped up with sins, led away with various eager desires, 7 Always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 And as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so also these have withstood the truth: men corrupted in mind, not tried concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest to all, as theirs also was. 10 And thou hast closely followed my doctrine, mode of life, purpose, faith, long suffering, love, patience, 11 Expulsions, sufferings, which were to me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; what expulsions I endured: and the Lord delivered me from all. 12 And all wishing to live devotedly in Christ Jesus shall be driven out. 13 And evil men and impostors shall proceed to worse, deceiving, and being deceived. 14 And remain thou in what things thou hast learned and hast been convinced of, knowing of whom thou hast learned; 15 And that from infancy thou hast known the holy letters, able to render thee wise to salvation by faith which in Christ Jesus. 16 All writing divinely inspired, and profitable for doctrine, for refutation, for correction, for instruction in justice: 17 That the man of God might be perfect, finished for every good work. 4 I call to witness before God there fore, and the Lord Jesus Christ, being about to judge the living and the dead according to his appearance and his kingdom; 2 Proclaim the word; keep fixed seasonably, and unseasonably; refute, censure, beseech, in all longsuffering and teaching. 3 For the time will be when they will not hear sound doctrine; but according to their own eager desires they will heap up to themselves teachers, feeling itchings for a report; 4 And truly from the truth will they turn away the hearing, and be turned aside to fictions. 5 And thou be sober in all things, suffer ill treatment, do the work of the bearer of good news, render thy service perfectly certain. 6 For I am already poured out, and the time of my deliverance has been fixed. 7 I have contended earnestly the good contest, I have completed the course, I have kept the faith: 8 As to the rest, the crown of justice is laid up for me, which the Lord will assign to me in that day, the just judge: and not only to me, but also to all them having loved his appearance. 9 Be earnest to come to me quickly. 10 For Demas has forsaken me, having loved the time now, and has gone to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. 11 Luke alone is with me. Having taken Mark, bring with thyself: for he is useful for the service. 12 And Tychicus I sent to Ephesus. 13 The cloak which I left in Troas with Carpus, coming, bring, and the books, chiefly the parchments. 14 Alexander the coppersmith showed me much evil: (may the Lord give back to him according to his works:) 15 Whom watch thou also; for he greatly withstood our words. 16 In my first defence none was present with me, but all forsook me; (may it not be reckoned to them.) 17 But the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the promulgation might be rendered perfectly certain, and all the nations might hear: and I was delivered out of the lion’s mouth. 18 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and save for his heavenly kingdom: to whom the glory for the times of times. Amen. 19 Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus. 20 Erastus remained in Corinth: and Trophimus I left in Miletum sick. 21 Be earnest to come before winter Eubulus greets thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren. 22 The Lord Jesus Christ with thy Spirit. Grace with you. Amen.
