ASV_Strong : 2 Timothy 2
1. Thou[G4771] therefore[G3767], my[G3450] child[G5043], be strengthened[G1743] in[G1722] the grace[G5485] that is[G3588] in[G1722] Christ[G5547] Jesus[G2424].
2. And[G2532] the things which[G3739] thou hast heard[G191] from[G3844] me[G1700] among[G1223] many[G4183] witnesses[G3144], the same[G5023] commit[G3908] thou to faithful[G4103] men[G444], who[G3748] shall be[G2071] able to[G2425] teach[G1321] others[G2087] also[G2532].
3. [G4771, 3767] Suffer hardship[G2553] with me[G5613], as a good[G2570] soldier[G4757] of Christ[G5547] Jesus[G2424].
4. No soldier[G3762] on service[G4754] entangleth himself[G1707] in the affairs of[G4230] this life[G979]; that[G2443] he may please[G700] him who enrolled him as a soldier[G4758].
5. And[G1161] if[G1437] also[G2532] a man[G5100] contend in the games[G118], he is[G4737] not[G3756] crowned[G4737], except[G3362] he have contended[G118] lawfully[G3545].
6. The husbandmen[G1092] that laboreth[G2872] must[G1163] be[G3335] the first[G4412] to partake[G3335] of the fruits[G4413].
7. Consider[G3539] what[G3739] I say[G3004]; for[G1063] the Lord[G2962] shall give[G1325] thee[G4671] understanding[G4907] in[G1722] all things[G3956].
8. Remember[G3421, 1453] Jesus[G2424] Christ[G5547], risen[G1453] from[G1537] the dead[G3498], of[G1537] the seed[G4690] of David[G1138], according to[G2596] my[G3450] gospel[G2098]:
9. wherein[G3739, 1722] I suffer hardship[G2553] unto[G3360] bonds[G1199], as[G5613] a malefactor[G2557]; but[G235] the word[G3056] of God[G2316] is[G1210] not[G3756] bound[G1210].
10. Therefore[G1223] I endure[G5278] all things[G3956] for[G1223] the elect[G1588]'s sake[G1223], that[G2443] they[G846] also[G2532] may[G5177] obtain[G5177] the salvation[G4991] which is[G3588] in[G1722] Christ[G5547] Jesus[G2424] with[G3326] eternal[G166] glory[G5124].
11. Faithful[G4103] is the saying[G3056]: For[G1063] if[G1487] we died with[G4880] him[G4800], we shall also[G2532] live with him[G4800]:
12. if[G1487] we endure[G5278], we shall[G4821] also[G2532] reign with[G4821] him[G1487]: if we shall deny[G720] him[G2548], he also will deny[G720] us[G2248]:
13. if[G1487] we are faithless[G569], he[G1565] abideth[G3306] faithful[G4103]; for he[G1410] cannot[G3756] deny[G720] himself[G1438].
14. Of these things[G5023] put[G5279] them in remembrance[G5279], charging[G1263] them in the sight[G1799] of the Lord[G2962], that they strive[G3054] not[G3361] about words[G3054], to[G1519] no[G3762] profit[G5539], to[G1909] the subverting[G2692] of them that hear[G191].
15. Give diligence[G4704] to present[G3936] thyself[G4572] approved[G1384] unto God[G2316], a workman[G2040] that needeth not to be ashamed[G422], handling aright[G3718] the word[G3056] of truth[G225].
16. But[G1161] shun[G4026] profane[G952] babblings[G2757]: for[G1063] they will proceed[G4298] further[G4119] in[G1909] ungodliness[G763],
17. and[G2532] their[G846] word[G3056] will[G2192] eat[G3542] as doth[G5613] a gangrene[G1044]: of whom[G3739] is[G2076] Hymenaeus[G5211] and[G2532] Philetus[G5372];
18. men who[G3748] concerning[G4012] the truth[G225] have erred[G795], saying[G3004] that[G1096] the resurrection[G386] is past[G1096] already[G2235], and[G2532] overthrow[G396] the faith[G4102] of some[G5100].
19. Howbeit[G3305] the firm[G4731] foundation[G2310] of God[G2316] standeth[G2476], having[G2192] this[G3778] seal[G4973], The Lord[G2962] knoweth[G1097] them that are[G5607] his[G846]: and[G2532], Let[G868] every one[G3956] that nameth[G3687] the name[G3686] of the Lord[G5547] depart[G868] from[G575] unrighteousness[G93].
20. Now[G1161] in[G1722] a great[G3173] house[G3614] there are[G2076] not[G3756] only[G3440] vessels[G4632] of gold[G5552] and[G2532] of silver[G693], but[G235] also[G2532] of wood[G3585] and[G2532] of earth[G3749]; and[G2532] some[G3739] unto[G1519] honor[G5092], and[G1161] some[G3739] unto[G1519] dishonor[G819].
21. If[G1437] a man[G5100] therefore[G3767] purge[G1571] himself[G1438] from[G575] these[G5130], he shall be[G2071] a vessel[G4632] unto[G1519] honor[G5092], sanctified[G37], [G2532] meet[G2173] for the master[G1203]'s use[G2173], prepared[G2090] unto[G1519] every[G3956] good[G18] work[G2041].
22. But[G1161] flee[G5343] youthful[G3512] lusts[G1939], and[G1161] follow[G1377] after righteousness[G1343], faith[G4102], love[G26], peace[G1515], with[G3326] them that call[G1941] on the Lord[G2962] out of[G1537] a pure[G2513] heart[G2588].
23. But[G1161] foolish[G3474] and[G2532] ignorant[G521] questionings[G2214] refuse[G3868], knowing[G1492] that[G3754] they gender[G1080] strifes[G3163].
24. And[G1161] the Lord[G2962]'s servant[G1401] must[G1163] not[G3756] strive[G3164], but[G235] be[G1511] gentle[G2261] towards[G4314] all[G3956], apt to teach[G1317], forbearing[G420],
25. in[G1722] meekness[G4236] correcting[G3811] them that oppose themselves[G475]; if[G3379] peradventure[G3379] God[G2316] may give[G1325] them[G846] repentance[G3341] unto[G1519] the knowledge[G1922] of the truth[G225],
26. and[G2532] they may recover themselves[G366] out of[G1537] the snare[G3803] of the devil[G1228], having been taken captive[G2221] by[G5259] him[G846] unto[G1519] his[G1565] will[G2307].
