2 Timothy 1:6-18

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁶ For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh ^(A)the gift of God which is in you through ^(B)the laying on of my hands. ⁷ For God has not given us a ^(C)spirit of ^[a]timidity, but of power and love and ^[b]discipline.

⁸ Therefore ^(D)do not be ashamed of the ^(E)testimony of our Lord or of me ^(F)His prisoner, but join with me in ^(G)suffering for the ^(H)gospel according to the power of God, ⁹ who has ^(I)saved us and ^(J)called us with a holy ^(K)calling, ^(L)not according to our works, but according to His own ^(M)purpose and grace which was granted us in ^(N)Christ Jesus from ^(O)all eternity, ¹⁰ but ^(P)now has been revealed by the ^(Q)appearing of our Savior ^(R)Christ Jesus, who ^(S)abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, ^11 (T)for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher. ¹² For this reason I also suffer these things, but ^(U)I am not ashamed; for I know ^(V)whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to ^(W)guard what I have entrusted to Him ^[c]until ^(X)that day. ^13 [d](Y)Retain the ^(Z)standard of ^(AA)sound words ^(AB)which you have heard from me, in the ^(AC)faith and love which are in ^(AD)Christ Jesus. ¹⁴ Guard, through the Holy Spirit who ^(AE)dwells in us, the ^[e](AF)treasure which has been entrusted to you.

¹⁵ You are aware of the fact that all who are in ^[f](AG)Asia ^(AH)turned away from me, among whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes. ¹⁶ The Lord grant mercy to ^(AI)the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me and ^(AJ)was not ashamed of my ^[g](AK)chains; ¹⁷ but when he was in Rome, he eagerly searched for me and found me— ¹⁸ the Lord grant to him to find mercy from the Lord on ^(AL)that day—and you know very well what services he rendered at ^(AM)Ephesus.
