2 Timothy 2:3-6

AUV(i) 3 [Be willing to] suffer hardship with me like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No soldier on active duty, gets himself involved in the affairs of civilian life, so that he can please the person who enlisted him [i.e., his commanding officer]. 5 And if a person competes as an athlete, he is not awarded the victor’s crown unless he competes according to the rules. 6 [And] the farmer who works hard should be the first one to receive a share of the crops.
