2 Timothy 2:1-15

1You therefore, my 12son, 3be strong in the grace that is in 4Christ Jesus. 2The things 5which you have heard from me in the presence of 6many witnesses, 7entrust these to 8faithful 9people who will be 10able to teach others also. 311Suffer hardship with me, as a good 12soldier of 13Christ Jesus. 4No soldier in active service 14entangles himself in the affairs of everyday life, so that he may please the one who enlisted him. 5And if someone likewise 15competes as an athlete, he is not 16crowned as victor unless he competes according to the rules. 617The hard-working farmer ought to be the first to receive his share of the crops. 7Consider what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything.

8Remember Jesus Christ, 18risen from the dead, 19descendant of David, 20according to my gospel, 921for which I 22suffer hardship even to 23imprisonment as a 24criminal; but 25the word of God 26is not imprisoned. 10For this reason 27I endure all things for 28the sake of 29those who are chosen, 30so that they also may obtain the 31salvation which is in 32Christ Jesus and with it 33eternal glory. 1134The statement is trustworthy: For 35if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;12If we endure, 36we will also reign with Him; If we 3738deny Him, He will also deny us;13If we are faithless, 39He remains faithful, for 40He cannot deny Himself.

14Remind them of these things, and solemnly 41exhort them in the presence of God not to 42dispute about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the listeners. 15Be diligent to 43present yourself approved to God as a worker who 44does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling 45the word of truth.
