1 youi therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation].

2 And the things that youi have heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit youi to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

3 youi therefore endure blindness, as a good soldier of Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah].

4 No man that wars entangles himself with the affairs of [this] life; that he may please him who has chosen him to be a soldier.

5 And if a man also strive for masteries, [yet] is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

6 The farmer (or rancher) that labours must be first partaker of the fruits.

7 Consider what I say; and the Lord - Kurios give youi understanding in all things.

8 Remember that Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] of the seed of David [Beloved] was raised from the dead according to my Gospel (joyful message):

9 Wherein I suffer (allow, to let, permit) trouble, as an evil doer, [even] unto bonds; but the word of God-The Father is not bound.

10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Moshiach [Messiah] Yeshua [God is Salvation] with eternal glory.

11 [It is] a faithful saying: For if we be dead with [him], we shall also live with [him]:

12 If we suffer (allow, to let, permit), we shall also reign with [him]: if we deny [him], he also will deny us:

13 If we believe not, [yet] he abides faithful: he cannot deny himself.

14 Of these things put [them] in remembrance, charging [them] before the Lord - Kurios that they strive not about words to no profit, [but] to the subverting of the hearers.

15 Study to show yourself approved unto God-The Father, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly expounding (dissecting) the word of truth.

16 But shun Profane (treat as common; defile) [and] vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

17 And their word will eat as does a canker (something that eats away, corrodes; cancer; gangrene; an ulcer-like sore): of whom is Hymenaeus [belonging to marriage] and Philetus [beloved];

18 Who concerning the thave erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

19 Nevertheless the foundation of God-The Father stands sure, having this seal, The Lord - Kurios knows them that are his. And, Let every one that names the name of [the] Lord – Kurios depart from iniquity.

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.

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.

22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord - Kurios out of a pure heart.

23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

24 And the slave of the Lord - Kurios must not strive; but be gentle unto all [men], apt to teach, patient,

25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God-The Father perhaps will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

26 And [that] they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
