2 Timothy 1:8-12
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Suffer Hardship With Me For The Gospel. Hold The Teachings In Faith And Love
8 Therefore, do not be[a] ashamed-of the testimony of our Lord nor me His prisoner, but suffer-hardship-with me for the good-news according-to[b] the power of God: 9 the One having saved us and called us with[c] a holy calling, not according-to our works but according to His own purpose and grace— it having been given to us in Christ Jesus before eternal times 10 but now having been revealed through the appearance of our Savior Christ Jesus, He having abolished[d] death and brought-to-light life and immortality through the good-news 11 for which I was appointed a proclaimer and apostle and teacher, 12 for which reason I also am suffering these things. But I am not ashamed, for I know in Whom I have believed and am convinced that He is able to guard my deposit until that day.
