2 Timothy
Chapter 1
1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, through the will of God, according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus.
1:2 To Timothy, my beloved child: grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
1:3 I have gratitude to God, whom I give-divine service from my ancestors in a clean conscience, how constant is my mention concerning you in my supplications, night and day.
1:4 I am longing to see you, having remembered your tears, that* I may be filled with joy;
1:5 receiving a reminder of the faith without hypocrisy, which is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, now I also have confidence it is in you.
1:6 Because of which cause, I am reminding you to rekindle the gift* of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
1:7 For* God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but of power and love* and self-discipline.
1:8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me, his prisoner, but suffer-hardship together with the good-news according to the power of God,
1:9 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 everlasting,
1:10 but is now made manifest through the appearing of our Savior, Jesus Christ, who indeed having done-away-with death has illuminated both life and incorruption through the good-news,
1:11 to which I was appointed* a preacher and an apostle and a teacher of the Gentiles.
1:12 Because of which cause, I also am suffering these things too, but I am not ashamed; for* I know him whom I have believed and I have been persuaded that he is able to guard my deposit consigned to him to that day.
1:13 Hold to the pattern of sound* words which you have heard from me, in faith and love* which is in Christ Jesus.
1:14 Guard the good deposit consigned to you through the Holy Spirit who is dwelling in us.
1:15 You know this, that all who are in Asia turned away from me; of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
1:16 May the Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chain;
1:17 but, when he happened to be in Rome, he diligently sought me and found me,
1:18 (may the Lord give to him to find mercy from the Lord in that day), and how-much he served me in Ephesus, you know this quite-well.
