Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and Christ Jesus our hope;

to Timothy, my true child in faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

And I thank him who enabled me, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he counted me faithful, appointing me to service;

The grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

The saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

However, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first, Jesus Christ might display all his patience, for an example of those who were going to believe in him for eternal life.

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

For those who have served well gain for themselves a good standing, and great boldness in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

If you instruct the brothers of these things, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, nourished in the words of the faith, and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

I command you in the sight of God, and Christ Jesus, and the chosen angels, that you observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.

If anyone teaches a different doctrine, and does not consent to sound words, the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness,

I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate testified the good confession,

that you keep the commandment without spot, blameless, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;
