2 Timothy 2:3-7

Wycliffe Bible

³ Travail thou as a good knight of Christ Jesus. [Travail thou as a good knight of Jesus Christ.]

⁴ No man holding knighthood to God, wrappeth himself [enwrappeth himself] with worldly needs, that he please to him, to whom he hath proved himself.

⁵ For he that fighteth in a battle [For why and he that striveth in a battle], shall not be crowned, but he fight lawfully.

⁶ It behooveth an earth-tiller to receive first of the fruits.

⁷ Understand thou what things I say [Understand what things I say]. For the Lord shall give to thee understanding in all things.
