Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.

Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;

Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.

The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,

But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments.

Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.
