Think over what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything.

Remember Jesus Christ, (A)risen from the dead, the (B)offspring of David, (C)as preached in my gospel, (D)for which I am suffering, (E)bound with chains as a criminal. But (F)the word of God is not bound! 10 Therefore (G)I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain (H)the salvation that is in Christ Jesus with (I)eternal glory. 11 The saying is (J)trustworthy, for:

(K)If we have died with him, we will also (L)live with him;
12 (M)if we endure, we will also reign with him;
(N)if we deny him, he also will deny us;
13 (O)if we are faithless, (P)he remains faithful—

for (Q)he cannot deny himself.

Think about what I am saying, for the Lord will enable you to understand everything.

Remember Yeshua the Messiah, who was raised from the dead, who was a descendant of David. This is the Good News I proclaim, and for which I am suffering to the point of being bound in chains — but the Word of God is not bound in chains! 10 Why do I persevere through it all? For the sake of those who have been chosen, so that they too may obtain the deliverance that comes through the Messiah Yeshua, with eternal glory. 11 Here is a statement you can trust:

If we have died with him,
    we will also live with him.
12 If we persevere,
    we will also rule with him

If we disown him,
    he will also disown us.
13 If we are faithless,
    he remains faithful,
    for he cannot disown himself.

Consider what I say, and [a]may the Lord (A)give you understanding in all things.

Remember that Jesus Christ, (B)of the seed of David, (C)was raised from the dead (D)according to my gospel, (E)for which I suffer trouble as an evildoer, (F)even to the point of chains; (G)but the word of God is not chained. 10 Therefore (H)I endure all things for the sake of the [b]elect, (I)that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11 This is a faithful saying:

For (J)if we died with Him,
We shall also live with Him.
12 (K)If we endure,
We shall also reign with Him.
(L)If we deny Him,
He also will deny us.
13 If we are faithless,
He remains faithful;
He (M)cannot deny Himself.
