2 Timothy 1:3-7

Holman Christian Standard Bible

Thanksgiving

³ I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience^(A) as my ancestors did, when I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day.^{(B) 4} Remembering your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy, ⁵ clearly recalling your sincere faith^(C) that first lived in your grandmother Lois, then in your mother Eunice,^(D) and that I am convinced is in you also.

⁶ Therefore, I remind you to keep ablaze^[a] the gift of God that is in you through the laying on of my hands.^{(E) 7} For God has not given us a spirit^[b] of fearfulness,^(F) but one of power,^(G) love,^(H) and sound judgment.
