2 Timothy 2 Therefore, my child, be thou filled up with dynamite in the grace which is in Christ Jesus,

Godbey⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Therefore, my child, be thou filled up with dynamite in the grace which is in Christ Jesus, ² and whatsoever things thou hast heard with me through many witnesses, commit thou the same to faithful men, who will be able also to teach others. ³ Suffer affliction, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. ⁴ No one operating as a soldier is entangled with the affairs of life; in order that he may please his commander. ⁵ But if indeed any one may fight, he is not crowned unless he may fight lawfully. ⁶ It behooves the toiling farmer first to partake of the fruits. ⁷ Know what I say; for the Lord will give you understanding in all things. ⁸ Remember Jesus Christ, who is risen from the dead, from the seed of David, according to my gospel: ⁹ in whom I suffer affliction as an evil-doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound. ¹⁰ On account of this I endure all things for the sake of the elect, in order that they may also have the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. ¹¹ It is a faithful saying: For if we die along with him, we will also live with him: ¹² if we endure, we will truly reign with him: if we shall deny him, he will also deny us: ¹³ if we are unfaithful, he remains faithful; for he is not able to deny himself. ¹⁴ Remember these things, testifying before God, that they shall not fight with words, profitable unto nothing, for the overturning of those who hear. ¹⁵ Study to present yourself to God approved, a workman not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. ¹⁶ But reject the unsanctified empty talks: for they will proceed unto more of ungodliness, ¹⁷ and their word like gangrene will have eating. Of whom are Hymenaeus and Phyletus; ¹⁸ who have made shipwreck concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection has already come, and they overturn the faith of some. ¹⁹ The foundation of God stands solid indeed, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his: and; Let every one naming the name of the Lord depart from iniquity. ²⁰ But in a great house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also wood and stone, the former truly indeed unto honor, but the latter unto dishonor. ²¹ 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. ²² But fly from youthful lusts, and pursue righteousness, faith, divine love, peace, with those who call upon the Lord out of a clean heart. ²³ But reject foolish and undisciplinary questions, knowing that they gender strife. ²⁴ But it does not behoove the servant of the Lord to strive, but to be gentle toward all, competent to teach, enduring evil, ²⁵ in meekness correcting the adversaries; if peradventure God may grant unto them repentance into the perfect knowledge of the truth, ²⁶ and they may escape from the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him (the Lord's servant) according to his will.
