Verses 1–10
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of [this] life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also striveth for masteries, [yet] is he not crowned, except he striveth lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboreth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 In which I suffer trouble, as an evil-doer, [even] to bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
