26 versículos · Amplified Bible, 2015
1So you, my son, be strong and empowered in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2The things which you have heard me teach in the presence of many witnesses, entrust to reliable and faithful men who will also be capable and qualified to teach others.
3Take with me your share of hardship , like a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
4No soldier in active service gets entangled in the affairs of civilian life; so that he may please the one who enlisted him to serve.
5And if anyone competes as an athlete , he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules.
6The hard-working farmer ought to be the first to receive his share of the crops.
7Think over the things I am saying , for the Lord will grant you insight and understanding in everything.
8Remember Jesus Christ risen from the dead, descended from David , according to my gospel ,
9for that I am suffering even to wearing chains like a criminal; but the word of God is not chained or imprisoned!
10For this reason I patiently endure all things for the sake of those who are the elect (God's chosen ones), so that they too may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus and with it the reward of eternal glory.
11This is a faithful and trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
12If we endure, we will also reign with Him; If we deny Him, He will also deny us;
13If we are faithless, He remains faithful , for He cannot deny Himself.
14Remind the people of these facts, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God to avoid petty controversy over words, which does no good, and ruins those who listen.
15Study and do your best to present yourself to God approved, a workman who has no reason to be ashamed, accurately handling and skillfully teaching the word of truth.
16But avoid all irreverent babble and godless chatter , for it will lead to further ungodliness,
17and their teaching will spread like gangrene. So it is with Hymenaeus and Philetus,
18who have deviated from the truth. They claim that the resurrection has already taken place, and they undermine the faith of some.
19Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands , bearing this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of the Lord stand apart from wickedness and withdraw from wrongdoing."
20Now in a large house there are not only vessels and objects of gold and silver, but also vessels and objects of wood and of earthenware, and some are for honorable (noble, good) use and some for dishonorable (ignoble, common).
21Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things , he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified , useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.
22Run away from youthful lusts—pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23But have nothing to do with foolish and ignorant speculations , since you know that they produce strife and give birth to quarrels.
24The servant of the Lord must not participate in quarrels, but must be kind to everyone , skilled in teaching, patient and tolerant when wronged.
25He must correct those who are in opposition with courtesy and gentleness in the hope that God may grant that they will repent and be led to the knowledge of the truth ,
26and that they may come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.
