3 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day;KJRV — 2Timothy 1:3

4 Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;KJRV — 2Timothy 1:4

5 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also.KJRV — 2Timothy 1:5

8 Be not thou therefore ashamed (Romans 1:16) of the testimony (1 Corinthians 1:6; Revelation 1:2) of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;KJRV — 2Timothy 1:8

9 Who hath saved us, and called (1 Corinthians 1:2) us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, (Romans 16:25; 1 Corinthians 2:7)KJRV — 2Timothy 1:9

10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:KJRV — 2Timothy 1:10

11 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, (1 Corinthians 9:1; 1 Timothy 2:7) and a teacher of the Gentiles.KJRV — 2Timothy 1:11

12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.KJRV — 2Timothy 1:12

13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.KJRV — 2Timothy 1:13

16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed (Isaiah 58:7; Ezekiel 18:7; Matthew 25:35; James 1:27) me, and was not ashamed of my chain: (Matthew 25:36)KJRV — 2Timothy 1:16

17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.KJRV — 2Timothy 1:17

18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.KJRV — 2Timothy 1:18
