2 Timothy 3:10-17

English Standard Version

All Scripture Is Breathed Out by God

^10 (A)You, however, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness, ¹¹ my persecutions and sufferings that happened to me ^(B)at Antioch, ^(C)at Iconium, and ^(D)at Lystra—which persecutions I endured; yet ^(E)from them all ^(F)the Lord rescued me. ¹² Indeed, all who desire to ^(G)live a godly life in Christ Jesus ^(H)will be persecuted, ¹³ while ^(I)evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and ^(J)being deceived. ¹⁴ But as for you, ^(K)continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom^[a] you learned it ¹⁵ and how ^(L)from childhood you have been acquainted with ^(M)the sacred writings, ^(N)which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. ^16 (O)All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, ¹⁷ that ^(P)the man of God^[b] may be complete, ^(Q)equipped ^(R)for every good work.
