55:001:009 Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not
           according to our works, but according to his own purpose and
           grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world
           began,

55:001:010 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus
           Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and
           immortality to light through the gospel: 

55:001:011 Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a
           teacher of the Gentiles.

55:001:012 For the which cause I also suffer these things:  nevertheless I
           am not ashamed:  for I know whom I have believed, and am
           persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed
           unto him against that day.

55:001:013 Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of
           me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

55:001:014 That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy
           Ghost which dwelleth in us.

55:001:015 This thou knowest, that all they which are in Asia be turned
           away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.

55:001:016 The Lord give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft
           refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: 

55:001:017 But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently,
           and found me.

55:001:018 The Lord grant unto him that he may find mercy of the Lord in
           that day:  and in how many things he ministered unto me at
           Ephesus, thou knowest very well.

55:002:001 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in
           Christ Jesus.

55:002:002 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many
           witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be
           able to teach others also.

55:002:003 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus
           Christ.

55:002:004 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.

55:002:005 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned,
           except he strive lawfully.

55:002:006 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the
           fruits.

55:002:007 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in
           all things.

55:002:008 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised
           from the dead according to my gospel: 

55:002:009 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds;
           but the word of God is not bound.

55:002:010 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they
           may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with
           eternal glory.
