seed
of
David, according
to
my good
news
,
Remember Jesus Christ, raised from
the dead, descended
from
David, as
proclaimed
by
my gospel

not
been
bound;

which I suffer to
the
extent
of
being
chained
like
a
criminal.

be
chained!

word
: For
if we died together
--
we also shall
live together
;
This
is a
trustworthy
saying
: If we died with
Him,
we will
also live with
Him
;
if we do
endure together

we shall
also reign together
; if we deny `
him '
, he also shall
deny us;
if we endure ,
we will
also reign with
Him
; if we deny Him, He will
also deny us;
if we are not
stedfast
, he remaineth
stedfast;
to
deny himself he
is
not
able
.
if we are faithless
, He remains
faithful,
for
He
cannot
deny Himself.

the
profane
vain
talkings
stand
aloof
from
, for
to more impiety
they
will
advance
,
But
avoid
irreverent
, empty
chatter,
which
will
only
lead
to more ungodliness
,
and their
word
as
a
gangrene
will
have
pasture,
of whom
is
Hymenaeus and Philetus,
and the
talk
of such
men
will
spread
like
gangrene.
Among
them
are
Hymenaeus and Philetus,
who concerning
the truth did
swerve,
saying
the rising
again
to
have
already been
, and do
overthrow
the faith of some ;
who have
deviated
from
the truth .

depart
from
unrighteousness
--
every
one
who is
naming
the name of Christ
. '

must
turn
away
from
iniquity

some to
honour
, and
some
to
dishonour:

use.
if ,
then,
any
one
may
cleanse
himself from
these

be a vessel to
honour,
sanctified and
profitable
to the master --
to
every good work having
been
prepared,
So
if anyone
cleanses
himself of
what
is
unfit
, he will
be a vessel for
honor:
sanctified ,
useful
to the Master ,

the
youthful
lusts
flee thou,
and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those calling
upon
the Lord out of a pure heart ;

, apt
to teach, patient
under
evil,

not be
quarrelsome
, but must
be kind
to
everyone

in
meekness
instructing
those opposing

He
must
gently
reprove
those who
oppose
him,
in
the
hope
that
God may grant
them repentance leading
to a
knowledge
of the truth .
and
they may
awake
out
of
the devil's
snare, having
been
caught
by
him
at
his will.
Then
they will
come
to
their
senses
and
escape
the snare of
the
devil
, who
has
taken
them
captive
to
his will.
