2 Timothy 3:8-15

8Just as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so these also resist the truth. They are men who are corrupt in mind and worthless in regard to the faith.

9But they will not make further progress, for their foolishness will be clear to all, as was the foolishness of Jannes and Jambres.

10But you have followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, and endurance,

11along with the persecutions and sufferings that came to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured — and yet the Lord rescued me from them all.

12In fact, all who want to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.

13Evil people and impostors will become worse, deceiving and being deceived.

14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and firmly believed. You know those who taught you,

15and you know that from infancy you have known the sacred Scriptures, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
