Sha'ul's Second Letter to Timothy, Chapter 2
{2:1} You therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is
in Messiah Yeshua. {2:2} The things which you have heard from me among
many witnesses, commit the same to faithful men, who will be able to
teach others also. {2:3} You therefore must endure hardship, as a good
soldier of Messiah Yeshua. {2:4} No soldier on service entangles
himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled
him as a soldier. {2:5} Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he
isn't crowned unless he has competed by the rules. {2:6} The farmers
who labor must be the first to get a share of the crops. {2:7}
Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all
things.
{2:8} Remember Yeshua the Messiah, risen from the dead, of the seed
of David, according to my Good News, {2:9} in which I suffer hardship
to the point of chains as a criminal. But God's word isn't chained.
{2:10} Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones' sake, that
they also may obtain the salvation which is in Messiah Yeshua with
eternal glory. {2:11} This saying is faithful:
For if we died with him,
We will also live with him.
{2:12} If we endure,
We will also reign with him.
If we deny him,
He also will deny us.
{2:13} If we are faithless,
He remains faithful. He can't deny himself.
{2:14} Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of
the Lord, that they don't argue about words, to no profit, to the
subverting of those who hear.
{2:15} Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman
who doesn't need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth.
{2:16} But shun empty chatter, for they will proceed further in
ungodliness, {2:17} and their word will consume like gangrene, of whom
is Hymenaeus and Philetus; {2:18} men who have erred concerning the
truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing
the faith of some. {2:19} However God's firm foundation stands, having
this seal, "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who
names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness." {2:20} Now in
a great 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.
{2:21} If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a
vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use,
prepared for every good work.
{2:22} Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith,
love, and shalom with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
{2:23} But refuse foolish and ignorant questionings, knowing that they
generate strife. {2:24} The Lord's servant must not quarrel, but be
gentle towards all, able to teach, patient, {2:25} in gentleness
correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may give them repentance
leading to a full knowledge of the truth, {2:26} and they may recover
themselves out of the devil's snare, having been taken captive by him
to his will.
