2:1 Thou
therefore,
my
sonne,
be
strong
in
the
grace
that
is
in
Christ
Iesus.
2:2 And
the
things
that
thou
hast
heard
of
mee
among
many
witnesses,
the
same
commit
thou
to
faithfull
men,
who
shall
be
able
to
teach
others
also.
2:3 Thou
therefore
indure
hardnesse,
as
a
good
souldier
of
Iesus
Christ.
2:4 No
man
that
warreth,
intangleth
himselfe
with
the
affaires
of
this
life,
that
hee
may
please
him
who
hath
chosen
him
to
be
a
souldJeremiah
2:5 And
if
a
man
also
striue
for
masteries,
yet
is
hee
not
crowned
except
hee
striue
lawfully.
2:6 The
husbandman
that
laboureth,
must
bee
first
partaker
of
the
fruites.
2:7 Consider
what
I
say,
and
the
Lord
giue
thee
vnderstanding
in
all
things.
2:8 Remember
that
Iesus
Christ
of
the
seede
of
Dauid,
was
raised
from
the
dead,
according
to
my
Gospel:
2:9 Wherein
I
suffer
trouble
as
an
euill
doer,
euen
vnto
bonds:
but
the
word
of
God
is
not
bound.
2:10 Therefore
I
indure
all
things
for
the
elects
sakes,
that
they
may
also
obtaine
the
saluation
which
is
in
Christ
Iesus,
with
eternall
glory.
2:11 It
is
a
faithfull
saying:
for
if
we
bee
dead
with
him,
wee
shall
also
liue
with
him.
2:12 If
we
suffer,
we
shall
also
reigne
with
him:
if
wee
denie
him,
hee
also
will
denie
vs.
2:13 If
we
beleeue
not,
yet
he
abideth
faithfull,
he
cannot
denie
himselfe.
2:14 Of
these
things
put
them
in
remembrance,
charging
them
before
the
Lord,
that
they
striue
not
about
words
to
no
profite,
but
to
the
subuerting
of
the
hearers.
2:15 Studie
to
shewe
thy
selfe
approued
vnto
God,
a
workman
that
needeth
not
to
be
ashamed,
rightly
diuiding
the
word
of
trueth.
2:16 But
shun
profane
and
vaine
bablings,
for
they
will
increase
vnto
more
vngodlinesse.
2:17 And
their
word
will
eate
as
doth
a
canker:
of
whom
is
Hymeneus
and
Philetus.
2:18 Who
concerning
the
trueth
haue
erred,
saying
that
the
resurrection
is
past
alreadie,
and
ouerthrow
the
faith
of
some.
2:19 Neuerthelesse
the
foundation
of
God
standeth
sure,
hauing
the
seale,
the
Lord
knoweth
them
that
are
his.
And,
let
euery
one
that
nameth
the
Name
of
Christ,
depart
from
iniquitie.
2:20 But
in
a
great
house,
there
are
not
onely
vessels
of
gold,
and
of
siluer,
but
also
a
wood,
&
of
earth:
and
some
to
honour,
and
some
to
dishonour.
2:21 If
a
man
therefore
purge
himselfe
from
these,
he
shal
be
a
vessell
vnto
honour,
sanctified,
and
meete
for
the
Masters
vse,
and
prepared
vnto
euery
good
worke.
2:22 Flie
also
youthfull
lusts:
but
follow
righteousnesse,
faith,
charitie,
peace
with
them
that
call
on
the
Lord
out
of
a
pure
heart.
2:23 But
foolish
and
vnlearned
questions
auoid,
knowing
that
they
doe
gender
strifes.
2:24 And
the
seruant
of
the
Lord
must
not
striue:
but
bee
gentle
vnto
all
men,
apt
to
teach,
patient,
2:25 In
meekenesse
instructing
those
that
oppose
themselues,
if
God
peraduenture
will
giue
them
repentance
to
the
acknowledging
of
the
trueth.
2:26 And
that
they
may
recouer
themselues
out
of
the
snare
of
the
deuill,
who
are
taken
captiue
by
him
at
his
will.
