Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the offspring of David, according to my Good News,

Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.

if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us:

If we are faithless, he remains faithful; for he can’t deny himself.”

if we are faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny himself.

But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness,

But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness,

and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus:

Now in a large house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of clay. Some are for honor and some for dishonor.

Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.

The Lord’s servant must not quarrel, but be gentle toward all, able to teach, patient,

And the Lord’s servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing,
