2 Timothy 1:8-12
New American Standard Bible
8 Therefore (A)do not be ashamed of the (B)testimony of our Lord or of me (C)His prisoner, but join with me in (D)suffering for the (E)gospel according to the power of God, 9 who (F)saved us and (G)called us with a holy (H)calling, (I)not according to our works, but according to His own (J)purpose and grace, which was granted to us in (K)Christ Jesus from (L)all eternity, 10 but has (M)now been revealed by the (N)appearing of our Savior (O)Christ Jesus, who (P)abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, 11 (Q)for which I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher. 12 For this reason I also suffer these things; but (R)I am not ashamed, for I know (S)whom I have believed, and I am convinced that He is able to (T)protect what I have entrusted to Him [a]until (U)that day.

Revised Standard Version
8 Do not be ashamed then of testifying to our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel in the power of God, 9 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not in virtue of our works but in virtue of his own purpose and the grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus ages ago, 10 and now has manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. 11 For this gospel I was appointed a preacher and apostle and teacher, 12 and therefore I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me.[a]
