From Textus Receptus

2Ti 2:1 Thou therfore my sonne, be strong in the grace that is in Christe Iesus. 2Ti 2:2 And the thynges that thou haste hearde of me by many witnesses, the same commit thou to faythfull men, which shalbe apt to teache other also. 2Ti 2:3 Thou therfore suffer afflictions as a good souldier of Iesus Christe. 2Ti 2:4 No man that warreth, entangleth hym selfe with thaffayres of [this] lyfe, that he may please hym which hath chosen hym to be a souldier. 2Ti 2:5 And if a man also wrestle, yet is he not crowned except he wrestle lawfullie. 2Ti 2:6 The labouryng husbandman, must first be partaker of the fruites. 2Ti 2:7 Consider What I say: and the Lorde geue thee vnderstandyng in all thinges. 2Ti 2:8 Remember that Iesus Christe, of the seede of Dauid, was raysed from the dead, accordyng to my Gospell, 2Ti 2:9 Wherin I suffer trouble as an euyll doer, euen vnto bondes: But the worde of God is not bounde. 2Ti 2:10 Therfore I suffer all thynges for the electes sakes, that they myght also obtaine the saluation, which is in Christ Iesus, with eternall glorie. 2Ti 2:11 It is a faythfull saying: for yf we be dead with hym, we shall also lyue with hym: 2Ti 2:12 If we be patient, we shall also raigne with hym: If we denie hym, he also shall denie vs. 2Ti 2:13 If we be vnfaythful, he abideth faithfull, he can not denie hym selfe. 2Ti 2:14 Of these thynges put them in remembraunce, testifie before the Lorde, that they striue not about wordes to no profite, [but] to the peruertyng of ye hearers. 2Ti 2:15 Studie to shewe thy selfe approued vnto God, a workman not to be ashamed, rightlie deuidyng the worde of trueth. 2Ti 2:16 But prophane voyces of vanitie passe ouer: For they wyll encrease vnto greater vngodlynesse. 2Ti 2:17 And their worde shall fret as doth a cancker: of whom is Hymeneus and Philetus, 2Ti 2:18 Which about the trueth haue erred, saying that the resurrection is past alredie, & do ouerthrowe the fayth of some. 2Ti 2:19 But the strong foundation of God standeth styl, hauyng this seale: The Lorde knoweth the that are his: And, let euery one that nameth the name of Christe, depart from iniquitie. 2Ti 2:20 But in a great house are not onely vessels of golde, and of siluer, but also of wood and of earth: some to honour, and some vnto dishonour. 2Ti 2:21 If a man therfore pourge hym selfe from these, he shalbe a vessell vnto honour, and meete for ye vses of the Lorde, and prepared vnto euery good worke. 2Ti 2:22 Lustes of youth auoyde, but folowe ryghteousnesse, fayth, loue, peace, with them that call on the Lorde out of a pure heart. 2Ti 2:23 But foolishe & vnlearned questions put from thee, knowyng that they do but gender strife. 2Ti 2:24 And the seruaunt of the Lorde must not striue: but be gentle vnto all men, apt to teache, sufferyng euyll in mekenesse, 2Ti 2:25 Instructing the which are contrarie mynded, yf God at any tyme wyll geue them repentaunce, to the knowledge of the trueth: 2Ti 2:26 And that they may come to the selues agayne, out of the snare of the deuyll, which are holden captyue of hym at his wyll.
