The Second Letter of Paul to
Timothy
CHAPTER 1
2 Timothy 1:1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise
of life which is in Christ  Jesus, 2 Timothy 1:2
2 To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the
Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
2 Timothy 1:3
3 I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that
without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day; 2
Timothy 1:4
4 Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be
filled with joy;
2 Timothy 1:5
5 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt
first in thy grandmother Lois,  and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that
in thee also.
2 Timothy 1:6
6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which
is in thee by the putting on  of my hands. 2 Timothy 1:7
7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and 
of a sound mind.
2 Timothy 1:8
8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his
prisoner: but  be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to
the power of God;
2 Timothy 1:9
9 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our
works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ
Jesus before the world began, 2 Timothy 1:10
10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who
hath abolished death,  and hath brought life and immortality to light through
thegospel:
2 Timothy 1:11
11 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the
Gentiles.
2 Timothy 1:12
12 For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not
ashamed: for I know  whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to
keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. 2 Timothy 1:13
13 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and
love which  is in Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 1:14
14 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Ghost which
dwelleth in us.
2 Timothy 1:15
15 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me;
of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. 2 Timothy 1:16
16 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me,
and was not  ashamed of my chain: 2 Timothy 1:17
17 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me. 2
Timothy 1:18
18 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in that day: and
in how many things he ministered unto me  at Ephesus, thou knowest very well.
CHAPTER 2
2 Timothy 2:1
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2
Timothy 2:2
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same
commit thou to faithful men, who  shall be able to teach others also. 2 Timothy
2:3
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. 2 Timothy
2:4
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he
may please himwho hath chosen him to be a soldier. 2 Timothy 2:5
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except
hestrive lawfully.
2 Timothy 2:6
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits. 2 Timothy
2:7
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things. 2
Timothy 2:8
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead
according to my gospel:
2 Timothy 2:9
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of
God is not bound.
2 Timothy 2:10
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also
obtain the salvation which  is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 2 Timothy
2:11
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with
him:
2 Timothy 2:12
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will
deny us:
2 Timothy 2:13
13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself. 2
Timothy 2:14
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that
they strive not about words to no profit, but to  the subverting of the
hearers.
2 Timothy 2:15
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be
ashamed, rightlydividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:16
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more
ungodliness.
2 Timothy 2:17
17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
2 Timothy 2:18
18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past
already; and overthrow the faith of some. 2 Timothy 2:19
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord
knoweth them that are his. And,  Let every one that nameth the name of Christ
depart from iniquity.
2 Timothy 2:20
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but
also  of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 2
Timothy 2:21
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto
honour, sanctified, and  meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every
good work.
2 Timothy 2:22
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace,
with them that call on the Lord  out of a pure heart. 2 Timothy 2:23
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender
strifes.
2 Timothy 2:24
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt
to teach, patient,
2 Timothy 2:25
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure
will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 2 Timothy 2:26
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are
taken captive by him at his will. CHAPTER 3
2 Timothy 3:1
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 Timothy
3:2
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 2 Timothy 3:3
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent,
fierce, despisers of those that are good, 2 Timothy 3:4
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 2
Timothy 3:5
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn
away.
2 Timothy 3:6
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive
sillywomen laden with sins, led away  with divers lusts, 2 Timothy 3:7
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2
Timothy 3:8
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist  the
truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 2 Timothy 3:9
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all
men, as theirs also was.
2 Timothy 3:10
10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith,
longsuffering, charity, patience,
2 Timothy 3:11
11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at
Lystra; what persecutions  I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered
me.
2 Timothy 3:12
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
2 Timothy 3:13
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being
deceived.
2 Timothy 3:14
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been
assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; 2 Timothy 3:15
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able
tomake thee wise unto  salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 2
Timothy 3:16
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2
Timothy 3:17
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
CHAPTER 4
2 Timothy 4:1
1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall
judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 Timothy 4:2
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort
with all longsuffering and doctrine. 2 Timothy 4:3
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after
their own lusts  shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2 Timothy 4:4
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto
fables.
2 Timothy 4:5
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an
evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 2 Timothy 4:6
6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 2
Timothy 4:7
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
2 Timothy 4:8
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord,
the righteous judge, shall give me at that  day: and not to me only, but unto
all them also thatlove his appearing. 2 Timothy 4:9
9 Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me: 2 Timothy 4:10
10 For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed
unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia,  Titus unto Dalmatia. 2 Timothy 4:11
11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for heis
profitable  to me for the ministry. 2 Timothy 4:12
12 And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus. 2 Timothy 4:13
13 The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring
withthee, and the books, but especially the parchments. 2 Timothy 4:14
14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to
his works:
2 Timothy 4:15
15 Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words. 2
Timothy 4:16
16 At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: Ipray God
that it may not be laid to their charge. 2 Timothy 4:17
17 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the
preaching might be fully known, and  that all the Gentiles might hear: and I
was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. 2 Timothy 4:18
18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me
unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. 2 Timothy
4:19
19 Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus. 2 Timothy 4:20
20 Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick. 2
Timothy 4:21
21 Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens,
and Linus, and Claudia,  and all the brethren. 2 Timothy 4:22
22 The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. (The
second epistle unto  Timotheus, ordained the first bishop of the church of the
Ephesians, was written from Rome, when Paul was brought before Nero the second
time.)
