* Paul , an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God , according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus , * To Timothy , my dearly beloved son : Grace , mercy , and peace , from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord . * I thank (5719 ) God , whom I serve (5719 ) from my forefathers with pure conscience , that without ceasing I have (5719 ) remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day ; * Greatly desiring (5723 ) to see (5629 ) thee , being mindful (5772 ) of thy tears , that I may be filled (5686 ) with joy ; * When I call (5723 ) to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee , which dwelt (5656 ) first in thy grandmother Lois , and thy mother Eunice ; and I am persuaded (5769 ) that in thee also . * Wherefore I put thee in remembrance (5719 ) that thou stir up (5721 ) the gift of God , which is (5748 ) in thee by the putting on of my hands . * For God hath not given (5656 ) us the spirit of fear ; but of power , and of love , and of a sound mind . * Be not thou therefore ashamed (5680 ) of the testimony of our Lord , nor of me his prisoner : but be thou partaker of the afflictions (5657 ) of the gospel according to the power of God ; * Who hath saved (5660 ) us , and called (5660 ) us with an holy calling , not according to our works , but according to his own purpose and grace , which was given (5685 ) us in Christ Jesus before the world began , * But is now made manifest (5685 ) by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ , who hath abolished (5660 ) death , and hath brought life and immortality to light (5660 ) through the gospel : * Whereunto I am appointed (5681 ) a preacher , and an apostle , and a teacher of the Gentiles . * For the which cause I also suffer (5719 ) these things : nevertheless I am not ashamed (5736 ): for I know (5758 ) whom I have believed (5758 ), and am persuaded (5769 ) that he is (5748 ) able to keep (5658 ) that which I have committed unto him against that day . * Hold fast (5720 ) the form of sound (5723 ) words , which thou hast heard (5656 ) of me , in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus . * That good thing which was committed unto thee keep (5657 ) by the Holy Ghost which dwelleth (5723 ) in us . * This thou knowest (5758 ), that all they which are in Asia be turned away from (5648 ) me ; of whom are (5748 ) Phygellus and Hermogenes . * The Lord give (5630 ) mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus ; for he oft refreshed (5656 ) me , and was not ashamed (5681 ) of my chain : * But , when he was (5637 ) in Rome , he sought me out (5656 ) very diligently , and found (5627 ) me . * The Lord grant (5630 ) unto him that he may find (5629 ) mercy of the Lord in that day : and in how many things he ministered unto me (5656 ) at Ephesus , thou knowest (5719 ) very well .
