2 Timothy 4:17 Yet the Lord = Christ or Yahweh took a stand beside me (or: stood alongside in me) – and He empowered me (enabled me; gave me inward ability), to the end that through me the message that is being heralded (the contents of the public proclamation) would (or: may; could) be fully carried throughout with complete assurance, to full measure, and with absolute certainty, and so that all the ethnic multitudes (nations; Gentiles; Goyim; non-Jews) would (could; may) hear it – and I was dragged (or: drawn) from out of the mouth of a lion!
