2 Timothy 2:14-19
World English Bible

14 Remind them of these things, charging them in the sight of the Lord, that they don’t argue about words, to no profit, to the subverting of those who hear.

15 Give diligence to present yourself approved by God, a workman who doesn’t need to be ashamed, properly handling the Word of Truth. 16 But shun empty chatter, for it will go further in ungodliness, 17 and those words will consume like gangrene, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus: 18 men who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and overthrowing the faith of some. 19 However God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal, “The Lord knows those who are his,”Numbers 16:5 and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord[a] depart from unrighteousness.”

2 Timothy 2:14-19
American Standard Version

14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them in the sight of [a]the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of them that hear. 15 Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, [b]handling aright the word of truth. 16 But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness, 17 and their word will [c]eat as doth a gangrene: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; 18 men who concerning the truth have [d]erred, saying that [e]the resurrection is past already, and overthrow the faith of some. 19 Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, [f]The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, [g]Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.
