Paul, ^aan apostle of ^bChrist Jesus ^1cby the will of God, according to the promise of ^dlife in Christ Jesus,

2 To ^aTimothy, my beloved ^bchild: ^cGrace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

3 ^aI am grateful to God, whom I ^bserve with a ^cclear conscience ¹the way my forefathers did, ^das I unceasingly remember you in my ²prayers night and day, 4 ^alonging to see you, ^bhaving remembered your tears, so that I may be filled with joy, 5 ¹being reminded of the ^aunhypocritical faith within you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and ^byour mother Eunice, and I am convinced that it is in you as well. 6 For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh ^athe gift of God which is in you through ^bthe laying on of my hands. 7 For God has not given us a ^aspirit of ¹timidity, but of power and love and ²self-discipline.

8 Therefore ^ado not be ashamed of either the ^bwitness about our Lord or me ^cHis prisoner, but join with me in ^dsuffering for the ^egospel according to the power of God, 9 who has ^asaved us and ^bcalled us with a holy ^ccalling, ^dnot according to our works, but according to His own ^epurpose and grace which was given to us in ^fChrist Jesus from ^gall eternity, 10 but ^anow has been manifested by the ^bappearing of our Savior ^cChrist Jesus, who ^dabolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, 11 ^afor which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher. 12 For this reason I also suffer these things, but ^aI am not ashamed; for I know ^bwhom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to ^cguard what I have entrusted to Him ¹until ^dthat day. 13 ^1aHold to the ^bstandard of ^csound words ^dwhich you have heard from me, in the ^efaith and love which are in ^fChrist Jesus. 14 Guard, through the Holy Spirit who ^adwells in us, the ^1btreasure which has been entrusted to you.

15 You are aware of this: that all who are in ^aAsia ^bturned away from me, among whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes. 16 The Lord give mercy to ^athe house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me and ^bwas not ashamed of my ^1cchains, 17 but when he was in Rome, he eagerly searched for me and found me— 18 the Lord ¹grant to him to find mercy from the Lord on ^athat day—and you know very well what services he rendered at ^bEphesus.
