to Timothy my beloved son; grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord.

who has saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus be fore the times of the ages,

Do you, therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus;

The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you all. Amen.
