2 Timothy 1:3-7
English Standard Version
Guard the Deposit Entrusted to You
3 (A)I thank God (B)whom I serve, as did my ancestors, (C)with a clear conscience, as I remember you (D)constantly in my prayers night and day. 4 (E)As I remember your tears, (F)I long to see you, that I may be filled with joy. 5 I am reminded of (G)your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and (H)your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well. 6 For this reason I remind you (I)to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands, 7 for God gave us (J)a spirit not of fear but (K)of power and love and self-control.

3 (A)I thank God, whom I (B)serve with a (C)clear conscience [a]the way my forefathers did, (D)as I constantly remember you in my [b]prayers night and day, 4 (E)longing to see you, (F)even as I recall your tears, so that I may be filled with joy. 5 [c]For I am mindful of the (G)sincere faith within you, which first dwelled in your grandmother Lois and (H)your mother Eunice, and I am sure that it is in you as well. 6 For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh (I)the gift of God which is in you through (J)the laying on of my hands. 7 For God has not given us a (K)spirit of [d]timidity, but of power and love and [e]discipline.
