2 Timothy 2:22-26

New King James Version

^22 (A)Flee also youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. ²³ But avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they generate strife. ²⁴ And ^(B)a servant of the Lord must not quarrel but be gentle to all, ^(C)able to teach, ^(D)patient, ^25 (E)in humility correcting those who are in opposition, ^(F)if God perhaps will grant them repentance, ^(G)so that they may know the truth, ²⁶ and that they may come to their senses and ^(H)escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.
