2 Timothy Chapter 1

2Ti 1:1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, on account of the promise of life, which is by Christ Jesus;
2Ti 1:2 to Timothy, my beloved son: Favor, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from Christ Jesus our Lord.
2Ti 1:3 I give thanks to God, (whom from my forefathers I serve with a pure conscience,) that I have unceasing remembrance of you in my prayers night and day;
2Ti 1:4 remembering your tears, I greatly desire to see you, that I may be filled with joy:
2Ti 1:5 calling to remembrance also the unfeigned faith which is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois, and in your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that it dwells in you also.
2Ti 1:6 For which cause I put you in mind to stir up the spiritual gift of God, which is in you through the imposition of my hands.
2Ti 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of cowardice; but of power, and of love, and of self–government.
2Ti 1:8 Wherefore, be not ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but jointly suffer evil for the gospel, according to the power of God;
2Ti 1:9 who has saved us, and called us with a holy calling, ––not on account of our works; but on account of his own purpose and favor, which was given us through Christ Jesus, before the times of the ages,
2Ti 1:10 and is now manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ; who has, indeed, vanquished death, and brought life and incorruptibility to light by the gospel:
2Ti 1:11 of which I am appointed a herald, and an Apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles:
2Ti 1:12 for which cause I also suffer these things. Nevertheless, I am not ashamed; for I know in whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to preserve what I have committed in trust to him, till that day.
2Ti 1:13 The form of wholesome words, which you have heard from me, hold fast, with the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.
2Ti 1:14 The good deposit guard by the Holy Spirit, who dwells in us.
2Ti 1:15 You know this, that all they who are in Asia have turned me off; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
2Ti 1:16 May the Lord grant mercy to the family of Onesiphorus; for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
2Ti 1:17 but being in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
2Ti 1:18 May the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord in that day! And how many services he rendered to [me] in Ephesus, you well know.
