II Timothy Capítulo 2

2 : 1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

2 : 2 And the things that you have heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit you to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

2 : 3 You therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

2 : 4 No man that wars entangles himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.

2 : 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

2 : 6 The farmer that labors must be first partaker of the fruits.

2 : 7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give you understanding in all things.

2 : 8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

2 : 9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even to bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

2 : 10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

2 : 11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

2 : 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

2 : 13 If we believe not, yet he stays faithful: he cannot deny himself.

2 : 14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

2 : 15 Study to show yourself approved to God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

2 : 16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase to more ungodliness.

2 : 17 And their word will eat as does a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

2 : 18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

2 : 19 Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, Let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

2 : 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.

2 : 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honor, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared to every good work.

2 : 22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

2 : 23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do engender strifes.

2 : 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle to all men, apt to teach, patient,

2 : 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

2 : 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
