but now having been made manifest through the appearing of Jesus Christ our Saviour, the one having indeed destroyed death, and lighted up life and immortality through the gospel,

unto which I have been placed a herald, and an apostle, and teacher:

Therefore if any one may cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, having been sanctified, well pleasing to the Lord, having been prepared unto every good work.

and they may escape from the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him (the Lord's servant) according to his will.

But abide thou in those things which thou hast learned and in which thou hast been instructed, knowing from whom thou hast learned;

in order that the man of God may be perfect, having been thoroughly perfected unto every good work.
