2 Timothy 2:8-15
Christian Standard Bible
8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead(A) and descended from David, according to my gospel, 9 for which I suffer to the point of being bound like a criminal. But the word of God is not bound. 10 This is why I endure(B) all things for the elect:(C) so that they also may obtain salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.(D) 11 This saying is trustworthy:(E)
For if we died with him,(F)
we will also live with him;
12 if we endure, we will also reign(G) with him;
if we deny him, he will also deny us;
13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful,
for he cannot deny himself.
