2 Timothy 2:11-26

111It is a trustworthyG4103 statementG3056: For 2ifG1487 we diedG4880 with Him, we will alsoG2532 liveG4800 with Him;12IfG1487 we endureG5278, 3we will alsoG2532 reignG4821 with Him; IfG1487 we 45denyG720 Him, He alsoG2548 will denyG720 us;13IfG1487 we are faithlessG569, 6He remainsG3306 faithfulG4103, for 7He cannotG1410G3756 denyG720 HimselfG1438.

14RemindG5279 them of theseG3778 thingsG3778, and solemnlyG1263 8chargeG1263 them in the presenceG1799 of GodG2316 not to 9wrangleG3054 aboutG3054 wordsG3054, which is uselessG3762G5539 and leads to the ruinG2692 of the hearersG191. 15Be diligentG4704 to 10presentG3936 yourselfG4572 approvedG1384 to GodG2316 as a workmanG2040 who does not needG422 to be ashamedG422, accuratelyG3718 handlingG3718 11the wordG3056 of truthG225. 16But 12avoidG4026 13worldlyG952 and emptyG2757 chatterG2757, for 14it will leadG4298 to furtherG4183 ungodlinessG763, 17and their 15talkG3056 will spreadG3542 likeG5613 16gangreneG1044. Among them are 17HymenaeusG5211 and PhiletusG5372, 18men whoG3748 have goneG795 astrayG795 from the truthG225 sayingG3004 that 18the resurrectionG386 has alreadyG2235 takenG1096 placeG1096, and they upsetG396 19the faithG4102 of someG5100. 19NeverthelessG3305, the 20firmG4731 foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standsG2476, havingG2192 thisG3778 21sealG4973, “22The LordG2962 knowsG1097 thoseG3588 who are His,” and, “23EveryoneG3956 who namesG3687 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 is to abstainG868 from wickednessG93.”

20NowG1161 in a largeG3173 houseG3614 there are not onlyG3440 goldG5552 and silverG693 vesselsG4632, but alsoG2532 vessels of woodG3585 and of earthenwareG3749, and 24someG3739 to honorG5092 and someG3739 to dishonorG819. 21ThereforeG3767, ifG1437 anyoneG5100 cleansesG1571 himselfG1438 from 25theseG3778 things, he will be a vesselG4632 for honorG5092, sanctifiedG37, usefulG2173 to the MasterG1203, 26preparedG2090 for everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041. 22NowG1161 27fleeG5343 from youthfulG3512 lustsG1939 and pursueG1377 righteousnessG1343, 28faithG4102, loveG26 and peaceG1515, with thoseG3588 who 29callG1941 on the LordG2962 30from a pureG2513 heartG2588. 23But refuseG3868 foolishG3474 and ignorantG521 31speculationsG2214, knowingG3609 that they 32produceG1080 33quarrelsG3163. 2434The Lord’sG2962 bond-servantG1401 mustG1163 not be quarrelsomeG3164, but be kindG2261 to allG3956, 35ableG1317 to teachG1317, patientG420 whenG420 wrongedG420, 2536with gentlenessG4240 correctingG3811 thoseG3588 who are in oppositionG475, 37ifG3379 perhapsG3379 GodG2316 may grantG1325 them repentanceG3341 leadingG1519 to 38the knowledgeG1922 of the truthG225, 26and they may comeG366 to their sensesG366 and escape from 39the snareG3803 of the devilG1228, having been 40heldG2221 captiveG2221 41by him to do his willG2307.
