2 Timothy 2:3-13

3ThouG4771 thereforeG3767 endure hardnessG2553, asG5613 a goodG2570 soldierG4757 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.

4No manG3762 that warrethG4754 entangleth himselfG1707 with the affairs ofG4230 this lifeG3588G979; thatG2443 he may pleaseG700 him who hath chosen him to be a soldierG3588G4758.

5AndG1161 ifG1437 a manG5100 alsoG2532 strive for masteriesG118, yet is heG4737 notG3756 crownedG4737, exceptG3361 he striveG118 lawfullyG3545.

6The husbandmanG3588G1092 that labourethG2872 mustG1163 beG3335 firstG4412 partakerG3335 of the fruitsG3588G2590.

7ConsiderG3539 whatG3739 I sayG3004; andG1063 the LordG3588G2962 giveG1325 theeG4771 understandingG4907 inG1722 all thingsG3956.

8RememberG3421 thatG1453 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 ofG1537 the seedG4690 of DavidG1138 was raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498 according toG2596 myG1473 gospelG3588G2098:

9WhereinG1722G3739 I suffer troubleG2553, asG5613 an evil doerG2557, even untoG3360 bondsG1199; butG235 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316 isG1210 notG3756 boundG1210.

10ThereforeG1223 I endureG5278 all thingsG3956 forG1223 the elect’sG1588 sakesG1223, thatG2443 theyG846 mayG5177 alsoG2532 obtainG5177 the salvationG4991 which isG3588 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 withG3326 eternalG166 gloryG1391.

11It is a faithfulG4103 sayingG3588G3056: ForG1063 ifG1487 we be dead withG4880 him, we shallG4800 alsoG2532 live withG4800 him:

12IfG1487 we sufferG5278, we shallG4821 alsoG2532 reign withG4821 him: ifG1487 we denyG720 him, he alsoG2548 will denyG720 usG1473:

13IfG1487 we believe notG569, yet heG1565 abidethG3306 faithfulG4103: he cannotG3756G1410 denyG720 himselfG1438.
