^5 [a]For I am mindful of the ^(A)sincere faith within you, which first dwelled in your grandmother Lois and ^(B)your mother Eunice, and I am sure that it is in you as well.

¹⁰ Now you ^(A)followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, ^(B)love, ^[a]perseverance, ^11 (C)persecutions, and ^(D)sufferings, such as happened to me at ^(E)Antioch, at ^(F)Iconium, and at ^(G)Lystra; what ^(H)persecutions I endured, and out of them all ^(I)the Lord rescued me! ¹² Indeed, all who want to live in a godly way in Christ Jesus ^(J)will be persecuted. ¹³ But evil people and impostors ^(K)will proceed from bad to worse, ^(L)deceiving and being deceived. ¹⁴ You, however, ^(M)continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, ¹⁵ and that ^(N)from childhood you have known ^(O)the sacred writings which are able to ^(P)give you the wisdom that leads to ^(Q)salvation through faith which is in ^(R)Christ Jesus. ^16 (S)All Scripture is ^[b]inspired by God and beneficial for teaching, for ^[c]rebuke, for correction, for training in righteousness; ¹⁷ so that ^(T)the man or woman of God may be ^[d]fully capable, ^(U)equipped for every good work.
