2 Timothy 2:13-19
13IfG1487 we are faithlessG569, 1He remainsG3306 faithfulG4103, for 2He cannotG1410G3756 denyG720 HimselfG1438.
14RemindG5279 them of theseG3778 thingsG3778, and solemnlyG1263 3exhortG1263 them inG1799 theG1799 presenceG1799 ofG1799 GodG2316 not to 4disputeG3054 aboutG3054 wordsG3054, which is uselessG3762G5539 and leads to the ruinG2692 of the listenersG191. 15Be diligentG4704 to 5presentG3936 yourselfG4572 approvedG1384 to GodG2316 as a workerG2040 who 6doesG422 notG422 needG422 toG422 beG422 ashamedG422, accuratelyG3718 handlingG3718 7the wordG3056 of truthG225. 16But 8avoidG4026 9worldlyG952 and emptyG2757 chatterG2757, for 10it will leadG4298 to furtherG4183 ungodlinessG763, 17and their 11talkG3056 will spreadG3542 likeG5613 12gangreneG1044. Among them are 13HymenaeusG5211 and PhiletusG5372, 18men whoG3748 have goneG795 astrayG795 from the truthG225, claimingG3004 that 14the resurrectionG386 has alreadyG2235 takenG1096 placeG1096; and they areG396 jeopardizingG396 15the faithG4102 of someG5100. 19NeverthelessG3305, the 16firmG4731 foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standsG2476, havingG2192 thisG3778 17sealG4973: “18The LordG2962 knowsG1097 thoseG3588 who are His;” and, “19EveryoneG3956 who namesG3687 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 is to keepG868 awayG868 from wickednessG93.”
