2 Timothy 2:19-26

19NeverthelessG3305, the 1firmG4731 foundationG2310 of GodG2316 standsG2476, havingG2192 thisG3778 2sealG4973: “3The LordG2962 knowsG1097 thoseG3588 who are His;” and, “4EveryoneG3956 who namesG3687 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 is to keepG868 awayG868 from wickednessG93.”

20NowG1161 in a largeG3173 houseG3614 there are not onlyG3440 goldG5552 and silverG693 implementsG4632, but alsoG2532 implements of woodG3585 and of earthenwareG3749, and 5someG3739 are for honorG5092 while othersG3739 are for dishonorG819. 21ThereforeG3767, ifG1437 anyoneG5100 cleansesG1571 himselfG1438 from 6theseG3778 things, he will be an implementG4632 for honorG5092, sanctifiedG37, usefulG2173 to the MasterG1203, 7preparedG2090 for everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041. 22NowG1161 8fleeG5343 from youthfulG3512 lustsG1939 and pursueG1377 righteousnessG1343, 9faithG4102, loveG26, and peaceG1515 with thoseG3588 who 10callG1941 onG1941 the LordG2962 11from a pureG2513 heartG2588. 23But refuseG3868 foolishG3474 and ignorantG521 12speculationsG2214, knowingG3609 that they 13produceG1080 14quarrelsG3163. 2415The Lord’sG2962 bond-servantG1401 mustG1163 not be quarrelsomeG3164, but be kindG2261 to allG3956, 16skillfulG1317 inG1317 teachingG1317, patientG420 whenG420 wrongedG420, 2517with gentlenessG4240 correctingG3811 thoseG3588 who are in oppositionG475, 18ifG3379 perhapsG3379 GodG2316 may grantG1325 them repentanceG3341 leadingG1519 to 19the knowledgeG1922 of the truthG225, 26and they may comeG366 toG366 their sensesG366 and escape from 20the snareG3803 of the devilG1228, having been 21heldG2221 captiveG2221 22by him to do his willG2307.
