2 Timothy 1:7-12
English Standard Version
7 for God gave us (A)a spirit not of fear but (B)of power and love and self-control.
8 Therefore (C)do not be ashamed of (D)the testimony about our Lord, nor of (E)me his prisoner, but (F)share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, 9 (G)who saved us and (H)called us to[a] a holy calling, (I)not because of our works but because of (J)his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus (K)before the ages began,[b] 10 and which now has (L)been manifested through (M)the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, (N)who abolished death and (O)brought life and (P)immortality to light through the gospel, 11 (Q)for which I was appointed a preacher and apostle and teacher, 12 (R)which is why I suffer as I do. But (S)I am not ashamed, for (T)I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard until (U)that day (V)what has been entrusted to me.[c]
