For which cause I remind thee to stir up the gift of God that is in thee through the putting on of my hands,

to which I was placed a preacher and an apostle, and a teacher of nations,

for which cause also these things I suffer, but I am not ashamed, for I have known in whom I have believed, and have been persuaded that he is able that which I have committed to him to guard -- to that day.

The pattern hold thou of sound words, which from me thou didst hear, in faith and love that is in Christ Jesus;

in which I suffer evil -- unto bonds, as an evil-doer, but the word of God hath not been bound;

And thou -- be remaining in the things which thou didst learn and wast entrusted with, having known from whom thou didst learn,

and because from a babe the Holy Writings thou hast known, which are able to make thee wise -- to salvation, through faith that is in Christ Jesus;

And thou -- watch in all things; suffer evil; do the work of one proclaiming good news; of thy ministration make full assurance,
