2 Timothy 2:8-15
New King James Version
8 Remember that Jesus Christ, (A)of the seed of David, (B)was raised from the dead (C)according to my gospel, 9 (D)for which I suffer trouble as an evildoer, (E)even to the point of chains; (F)but the word of God is not chained. 10 Therefore (G)I endure all things for the sake of the [a]elect, (H)that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11 This is a faithful saying:
For (I)if we died with Him,
We shall also live with Him.
12 (J)If we endure,
We shall also reign with Him.
(K)If we deny Him,
He also will deny us.
13 If we are faithless,
He remains faithful;
He (L)cannot deny Himself.
Approved and Disapproved Workers
14 Remind them of these things, (M)charging them before the Lord not to [b]strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers. 15 (N)Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
