an apostle of ,jesus ,christ through the
 will of ,god1          according to the
 promise of the life which is in ,christ
 ,jesus1  #jja3jjb to ,timothy1 my      
beloved child3  ,grace1 mercy1 and      
peace1          from ,god the ,father   
and ,christ ,jesus our ,lord4  #jja3jjc 
,i thank ,god1 whom ,i serve as my      
forefathers did1 with a          pure   
conscience4  ,how unceasing is my memory
 of you in my petitions1          night 
and day  #jja3jjd longing to see you1   
remembering your tears1 that ,i may be  
filled with joy2  #jja3jje having been  
reminded of the unfeigned faith that is 
in you2          which lived first in   
your grandmother ,lois1 and your        
mother ,eunice1 and1 ,i am persuaded1 in
 you also4  #jja3jjf ,for this cause1 ,i
 remind you that you should stir up the 
gift          of ,god which is in you   
through the laying on of my hands4      

#jja3jjg ,for ,god didn't give us a     
spirit of fear1 but of power1           
love1 and self-control4  #jja3jjh       
,therefore don't be ashamed of the      
testimony of our ,lord1          nor of 
me his prisoner2 but endure hardship for
 the ,good ,news          according to  
the power of ,god1  #jja3jji who saved  
us and called us with a holy calling1   
not according          to our works1 but
 according to his own purpose and grace1
          which was given to us in      
,christ ,jesus before times eternal1    
#jja3jaj but has now been revealed by   
the appearing of our          ,savior1  
,christ ,jesus1 who abolished death1 and
 brought life          and immortality  
to light through the ,good ,news4       
#jja3jaa ,for this1 ,i was appointed as 
a preacher1 an apostle1          and a  
teacher of the ,gentiles4  #jja3jab ,for
 this cause ,i also suffer these things4
  ,yet ,i am not ashamed1          for  
,i know him whom ,i have believed1 and  
,i am persuaded          that he is able

 to guard that which ,i have committed  
to him          against that day4       
#jja3jac ,hold the pattern of sound     
words which you have heard from me1     
in faith and love which is in ,christ   
,jesus4  #jja3jad ,that good thing which
 was committed to you1 guard through    
the ,holy ,spirit who dwells in us4     
#jja3jae ,this you know1 that all who   
are in ,asia turned away from me2       
of whom are ,phygelus and ,hermogenes4  
#jja3jaf ,may the ,lord grant mercy to  
the house of ,onesiphorus1          for 
he often refreshed me1 and was not      
ashamed of my chain1  #jja3jag but when 
he was in ,rome1 he sought me           
diligently1 and found me  #jja3jah 7the 
,lord grant to him to find the ,lord's  
mercy in that day72          and in how 
many things he served at ,ephesus1 you  
know very well4  #jjb3jja ,you          
therefore1 my child1 be strengthened in 
the grace that is          in ,christ   
,jesus4  #jjb3jjb ,the things which you 
have heard from me among many witnesses1

          commit the same to faithful   
men1 who will be able to          teach 
others also4  #jjb3jjc ,you therefore   
must endure hardship1 as a good soldier 
of ,christ ,jesus4  #jjb3jjd ,no soldier
 on duty entangles himself in the       
affairs of life1          that he may   
please him who enrolled him as a        
soldier4  #jjb3jje ,also1 if anyone     
competes in athletics1 he isn't crowned 
unless          he has competed by the  
rules4  #jjb3jjf ,the farmers who labor 
must be the first to get a share        
of the crops4  #jjb3jjg ,consider what  
,i say1 and may the ,lord give you      
understanding          in all things4   
#jjb3jjh ,remember ,jesus ,christ1 risen
 from the dead1 of the seed of ,david1  
according to my ,good ,news1  #jjb3jji  
in which ,i suffer hardship to the point
 of chains as a criminal4          ,but 
,god's word isn't chained4  #jjb3jaj    
,therefore ,i endure all things for the 
chosen ones' sake1 that they            
also may obtain the salvation which is  

in ,christ ,jesus          with eternal 
glory4  #jjb3jaa ,this saying is        
faithful3  ,for if we died with him1 we 
will          also live with him4       
#jjb3jab ,if we endure1 we will also    
reign with him4  ,if we deny him1       
he also will deny us4  #jjb3jac ,if we  
are faithless1 he remains faithful4  ,he
 can't deny himself4  #jjb3jad ,remind  
them of these things1 charging them in  
the sight          of the ,lord1 that   
they don't argue about words1 to no     
profit1          to the subverting of   
those who hear4  #jjb3jae ,give         
diligence to present yourself approved  
by ,god1          a workman who doesn't 
need to be ashamed1 properly handling   
the ,word of ,truth4  #jjb3jaf ,but shun
 empty chatter1 for they will proceed   
further in ungodliness1  #jjb3jag and   
their word will consume like gangrene1  
of whom is          ,hymenaeus and      
,philetus2  #jjb3jah men who have erred 
concerning the truth1 saying that the   
resurrection          is already past1  

and overthrowing the faith of some4     
#jjb3jai ,however ,god's firm foundation
 stands1 having this seal1          ,the
 ,lord knows those who are his1,numbers 
#af3e and1          ,let every one who  
names the name of the ,lord,,tr reads   
,christ          instead of the ,lord   
depart from unrighteousness4  #jjb3jbj  
,now in a large house there are not only
 vessels of gold and          of silver1
 but also of wood and of clay4  ,some   
are for honor1          and some for    
dishonor4  #jjb3jba ,if anyone therefore
 purges himself from these1 he will be a
 vessel          for honor1 sanctified1 
and suitable for the master's use1      
prepared for every good work4  #jjb3jbb 
,flee from youthful lusts2 but pursue   
righteousness1 faith1 love1          and
 peace with those who call on the ,lord 
out of a pure heart4  #jjb3jbc ,but     
refuse foolish and ignorant             
questionings1 knowing that          they
 generate strife4  #jjb3jbd ,the ,lord's
 servant must not quarrel1 but be gentle

 towards all1          able to teach1   
patient1  #jjb3jbe in gentleness        
correcting those who oppose him3        
perhaps ,god may          give them     
repentance leading to a full knowledge  
of the truth1  #jjb3jbf and they may    
recover themselves out of the devil's   
snare1          having been taken       
captive by him to his will4  #jjc3jja   
,but know this1 that in the last days1  
grievous times will come4  #jjc3jjb ,for
 men will be lovers of self1 lovers of  
money1 boastful1          arrogant1     
blasphemers1 disobedient to parents1    
unthankful1 unholy1  #jjc3jjc without   
natural affection1 unforgiving1         
slanderers1          without            
self-control1 fierce1 no lovers of good1
  #jjc3jjd traitors1 headstrong1        
conceited1 lovers of pleasure rather    
than lovers of ,god2  #jjc3jje holding a
 form of godliness1 but having denied   
the power thereof4          ,turn away  
from these1 also4  #jjc3jjf ,for of     
these are those who creep into houses1  

and take captive          gullible women
 loaded down with sins1 led away by     
various lusts1  #jjc3jjg always         
learning1 and never able to come to the 
knowledge          of the truth4        
#jjc3jjh ,even as ,jannes and ,jambres  
opposed ,moses1 so do these also oppose 
the truth2 men corrupted in mind1       
reprobate concerning the faith4         
#jjc3jji ,but they will proceed no      
further4  ,for their folly will be      
evident to all men1 as theirs also came 
to be4  #jjc3jaj ,but you did follow my 
teaching1 conduct1 purpose1 faith1      
patience1 love1 steadfastness1  #jjc3jaa
 persecutions1 and sufferings3  those   
things that happened to me          at  
,antioch1 ,iconium1 and ,lystra4  ,i    
endured those persecutions4             
,out of them all the ,lord delivered me4
  #jjc3jab ,yes1 and all who desire to  
live godly in ,christ ,jesus            
will suffer persecution4  #jjc3jac ,but 
evil men and impostors will grow worse  
and worse1          deceiving and being 

deceived4  #jjc3jad ,but you remain in  
the things which you have learned and   
have          been assured of1 knowing  
from whom you have learned them4        
#jjc3jae ,from infancy1 you have known  
the sacred writings which are           
able to make you wise for salvation     
through faith1 which is          in     
,christ ,jesus4  #jjc3jaf ,every writing
 inspired by ,godliterally1             
,god-breathed is          profitable for
 teaching1 for reproof1 for correction1 
and for instruction which is in         
righteousness1  #jjc3jag that the man of
 ,god may be complete1 thoroughly       
equipped          for every good work4  
#jjd3jja ,i charge you therefore before 
,god and the ,lord ,jesus ,christ1      
who will judge the living and the dead  
at his appearing          and his       
,kingdom3  #jjd3jjb preach the word2 be 
urgent in season and out of season2     
reprove1 rebuke1 and exhort1 with all   
patience and teaching4  #jjd3jjc ,for   
the time will come when they will not   

listen to the sound          doctrine1  
but1 having itching ears1 will heap up  
for themselves          teachers after  
their own lusts2  #jjd3jjd and will turn
 away their ears from the truth1 and    
turn          aside to fables4  #jjd3jje
 ,but you be sober in all things1 suffer
 hardship1 do the work          of an   
evangelist1 and fulfill your ministry4  
#jjd3jjf ,for ,i am already being       
offered1 and the time of my             
departure has come4  #jjd3jjg ,i have   
fought the good fight4  ,i have finished
 the course4          ,i have kept the  
faith4  #jjd3jjh ,from now on1 there is 
stored up for me the crown of           
righteousness1          which the ,lord1
 the righteous judge1 will give to me on
          that day2 and not to me only1 
but also to all those who have          
loved his appearing4  #jjd3jji ,be      
diligent to come to me soon1  #jjd3jaj  
for ,demas left me1 having loved this   
present world1 and went          to     
,thessalonica2 ,crescens to ,galatia1   

and ,titus to ,dalmatia4  #jjd3jaa ,only
 ,luke is with me4  ,take ,mark1 and    
bring him with you1          for he is  
useful to me for service4  #jjd3jab ,but
 ,i sent ,tychicus to ,ephesus4         
#jjd3jac ,bring the cloak that ,i left  
at ,troas with ,carpus when you come1   
and the books1 especially the           
parchments4  #jjd3jad ,alexander1 the   
coppersmith1 did much evil to me4       
,the ,lord will repay him according to  
his works1  #jjd3jae of whom you also   
must beware2 for he greatly opposed our 
words4  #jjd3jaf ,at my first defense1  
no one came to help me1 but all left me4
          ,may it not be held against   
them4  #jjd3jag ,but the ,lord stood by 
me1 and strengthened me1 that through me
          the message might be fully    
proclaimed1 and that all the ,gentiles  
might hear2 and ,i was delivered out of 
the mouth of the lion4  #jjd3jah ,and   
the ,lord will deliver me from every    
evil work1 and will          preserve me
 for his heavenly ,kingdom2 to whom be  

the glory          forever and ever4

,aquila1 and the house of ,onesiphorus4 
#jjd3jbj ,erastus remained at ,corinth1 
but ,i left ,trophimus at ,miletus sick4
  #jjd3jba ,be diligent to come before  
winter4  ,eubulus salutes you1          
as do ,pudens1 ,linus1 ,claudia1 and all
