2 Timothy 2:8-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, a descendant of David—that is my gospel, 9 for which I suffer hardship, even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But the word of God is not chained.(A) 10 Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, so that they may also obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.(B) 11 The saying is sure:
If we have died with him, we will also live with him;
12 if we endure, we will also reign with him;
if we deny him, he will also deny us;(C)
13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful—
he[a] cannot deny himself.(D)

For (P)if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
12 If we endure, (Q)we will also reign with Him;
If we [c](R)deny Him, He will also deny us;
13 If we are faithless, (S)He remains faithful, for (T)He cannot deny Himself.
