2 Timothy 2:8-13
New International Version

8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead,(A) descended from David.(B) This is my gospel,(C) 9 for which I am suffering(D) even to the point of being chained(E) like a criminal. But God’s word(F) is not chained. 10 Therefore I endure everything(G) for the sake of the elect,(H) that they too may obtain the salvation(I) that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.(J)

11 Here is a trustworthy saying:(K)

If we died with him,
    we will also live with him;(L)
12 if we endure,
    we will also reign with him.(M)
If we disown him,
    he will also disown us;(N)
13 if we are faithless,
    he remains faithful,(O)
    for he cannot disown himself.

2 Timothy 2:8-13
International Standard Version

8 Meditate on[a] Jesus, the Messiah,[b] who was raised from the dead and is a descendant of David. This is the gospel I tell others.[c] 9 Because of it I am experiencing trouble, even to the point of being chained like a criminal. However, God’s word is not chained. 10 For that reason, I endure everything for the sake of those who have been chosen so that they, too, may receive the salvation that is in the Messiah[d] Jesus, along with eternal glory. 11 This saying is trustworthy:[e]

In dying with the Messiah,[f]
    true life we gain.[g]
12 Enduring, we with him will reign.
    Who him denies,
        he will disclaim.
13 Our faith may fail,
    his never wanes—
That’s who he is,
    he cannot change![h]
