~2Tim Chapter 1 ~
1 Paul an apostle of Yahshua Messiah by the will of Elohim according to the promise of life which is in Messiah Yahshua,
2 to my dear beloved son Timothy: Grace, mercy, peace from YAHWEH the Father and Yahshua Messiah our Master.
3 I thank YAHWEH, whom I serve from my boyhood with a pure conscience, that I continually remember thee in my prayers, by night and by day:
4 longing to see you, being reminded of your tears, that I may be filled with joy,
5 especially when I am reminded of your true faith, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and I am now sure that it is also in you.
6 For this reason I remind you to stir up the gift of Elohim which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
7 For YAHWEH did not give a spirit of cowardice to us, but of power and of love and of good discipline.
8 Then do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Master, nor of me, His prisoner. But suffer hardship with the good news, according to the power of Elohim,
9 the One having saved us and having called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace given to us in Messiah Yahshua before the world began,
10 but now revealed through the appearance of our Savior, Yahshua Messiah, indeed making death of no effect, bringing life and immortality to light through the good news,
11 for which I was appointed a preacher and apostle and a teacher of nations.
12 For which cause I also suffer these things. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that He is able to guard my deposit until that Day.
13 Let this example of sound words which you heard from me abide in you, in faith and love in Messiah Yahshua.
14 Guard the good Deposit given through the Holy Spirit indwelling in us.
15 You know this, that all those in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.
16 May the Master give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me, and he was not ashamed of my chain,
17 but having come to Rome, he more diligently sought and found me.
18 May our Master give to him to find mercy from Elohim in that Day. And in what things he served in Ephesus, you know very well.
~2Tim Chapter 2 ~
1 Then my child, you be empowered by grace in Messiah Yahshua.
2 And what things you heard from me through many witnesses, commit these things to faithful men, such as will be competent also to teach others.
3 Then you suffer hardship as a good soldier of Yahshua Messiah.
4 No one serving as a soldier entangles himself with the affairs of this life, so that he might please the one having enlisted him.
5 And also if anyone competes, he is not crowned unless he competes lawfully.
6 It is right for the laboring farmer to partake first of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say, for the Almighty will give you understanding in all things.
8 Remember Yahshua Messiah, having been raised from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news,
9 in which I suffer ill as an evildoer, unto bonds; but the Word of Elohim has not been bound.
10 Because of this, I endure all things on account of the elect, that they also may obtain salvation in Messiah Yahshua, with everlasting glory.
11 This is a true saying: for if we died with Him, we also shall live with Him;
12 if we endure, we shall also reign with Him; if we deny Him, that One will deny us;
13 if we believe not in Him, that One remains faithful; He is not able to deny Himself.
14 You should keep these things in remembrance as a testimony before our Master that the faithful should not argue over words in which there is no profit, but which are destruction to those who listen to them.
15 And study to present yourself approved to Elohim, a workman unashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.
16 But shun profane, empty babblings, for they will go on to more unrighteousness,
17 and their word will eat like a canker, of whom are Hymenaeus and Philetus,
18 who missed the mark concerning the truth, saying the resurrection already has come, and overturn the faith of some.
19 However, the foundation of Elohim stands firm, having this seal, YAHWEH knew the ones being His; also, Let everyone naming the name of Messiah depart from unrighteousness.
20 But in a great house not only are there vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and of earth, and some to honor and some to dishonor.
21 Then if anyone purifies himself from these, he will be a vessel to honor, having been sanctified and made useful to the Master, having been prepared to every good work.
22 But flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with the ones calling on our Master out of a pure heart.
23 Keep away from foolish disputes which do not educate, knowing that they generate quarrels.
24 But a servant of Elohim ought not to quarrel, but to be gentle towards all, apt at teaching, patient,
25 so that he may discipline gently those who argue against him, if perhaps Elohim may give them repentance for them to know the truth,
26 and come to themselves and be saved from the trap of Satan by whom they have been drawn to his will.
~2Tim Chapter 3 ~
1 But know this, that in the last days disastrous times will be upon us.
2 For men will be lovers of them-selves, lovers of money, braggarts, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, wicked,
3 without natural feeling, addicted to lust, slanderers, without self-control, savage, haters of good,
4 traitors, hasty, boasters, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of Elohim,
5 having a form of righteousness, but denying the power of it; even turn away from these.
6 For of these are those creeping into houses and leading silly women captive, the ones having been heaped with sins, being led away by various lusts,
7 always striving to learn, but never being able to come to a full knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres stood up against Moses, so do these also withstand the truth: men of corrupt minds and far off from the faith.
9 But they will not go further, for their foolishness will be well known to every man, even as that of the others was also .
10 But you have closely followed my doctrine, the conduct, the purpose, the faith, the long-suffering, the love, the patient endurance,
11 the persecutions, the sufferings, such as happened to me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra, how I was persecuted. And my Master delivered me out of all.
12 Likewise, all those desiring to live a righteous life in Messiah Yahshua will be persecuted.
13 But evil men and pretenders will grow worse and worse, leading astray and being led astray.
14 But you keep on in what you learned and were assured of, knowing from whom you learned,
15 and that you have learned from your childhood, the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise to salvation through belief in Messiah Yahshua.
16 All Scripture is written by inspiration of the Holy Spirit and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,
17 so that the man of Elohim may be perfected, and complete for every good work.
~2Tim Chapter 4 ~
1 I solemnly charge you before YAHWEH and the Master Yahshua Messiah, He being about to judge the living and the dead at His appearance and His kingdom:
2 Preach the Word! Stand by it in season and out of season. Convict, warn, encourage with all patience and teaching.
3 For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own lusts, they will add to themselves extra teachers according to their own desires;
4 and they will turn away their ears from the truth and will be turned aside to fables.
5 But you be clear-minded in all, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill your ministry.
6 For I am ready to be sacrificed, and the time of my departure is at hand.
7 I have fought the good fight. I have finished the course. I have kept the faith.
8 For the rest, the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which our Master, the righteous Judge, will give to me in that Day, and not only to me, but also to all those who love His appearance.
9 Make every effort to come to me soon.
10 For Demas deserted me, having loved this world, and he went to Thessalonica. Crescens went to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.
11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for ministry.
12 But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
13 When you come, bring the book carrier which I left in Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments.
14 Alexander the copper-smith showed many evil things to me. Elohim “will give back to him according to his works.”
15 You also be on guard against him, for he greatly withstood our words.
16 In my first defense no one was beside me, but all deserted me. May it not be held against them.
17 But the Almighty stood with me and gave me power, that through me the preaching might be fulfilled, and all the nations might hear. And I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
18 And Elohim will deliver me from every wicked work and will save me for His heavenly kingdom; to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
19 Greet Prisca and Aquila and the house of Onesiphorus.
20 Erastus remained in Corinth, but I left Trophimus sick in Miletus.
21 Make every effort to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brothers.
22 The Master Yahshua Messiah be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.
