Examples of Disloyalty and Loyalty
15 You know that everyone in the province of Asia(A) has deserted me,(B) including Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus,(C) because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed(D) of my chains.(E) 17 On the contrary, when he was in Rome, he searched hard for me until he found me. 18 May the Lord grant that he will find mercy from the Lord on that day!(F) You know very well in how many ways he helped me(G) in Ephesus.(H)
The Appeal Renewed
2 You then, my son,(I) be strong(J) in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things you have heard me say(K) in the presence of many witnesses(L) entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. 3 Join with me in suffering,(M) like a good soldier(N) of Christ Jesus. 4 No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. 5 Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown(O) except by competing according to the rules. 6 The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops.(P) 7 Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this.
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead,(Q) descended from David.(R) This is my gospel,(S) 9 for which I am suffering(T) even to the point of being chained(U) like a criminal. But God’s word(V) is not chained. 10 Therefore I endure everything(W) for the sake of the elect,(X) that they too may obtain the salvation(Y) that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.(Z)

King James Version
2 Timothy 1:15-2:13
King James Version
15 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain:
17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.
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.
2 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
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.
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
