2 Timothy 3:8-15

8And just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these people – who have warped minds and are disqualified in the faith – also oppose the truth.

9But they will not go much further, for their foolishness will be obvious to everyone, just like it was with Jannes and Jambres.

10You, however, have followed my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,

11as well as the persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, in Iconium, and in Lystra. I endured these persecutions and the Lord delivered me from them all.

12Now in fact all who want to live godly lives in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.

13But evil people and charlatans will go from bad to worse, deceiving others and being deceived themselves.

14You, however, must continue in the things you have learned and are confident about. You know who taught you

15and how from infancy you have known the holy writings, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
