|  | 1:1 | Paul, an apostle of Yahshua Messiah by the will of Elohim, according to the promise of life which is in Messiah Yahshua, | 
|  | 1:2 | To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from Yahweh the Father and Messiah Yahshua our Master. | 
|  | 1:3 | I thank Elohim, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of thee in my prayers night and day; | 
|  | 1:4 | Greatly desiring to see thee, being mindful of thy tears, that I may be filled with joy; | 
|  | 1:5 | When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also. | 
|  | 1:6 | Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of Elohim, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. | 
|  | 1:7 | For Elohim hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. | 
|  | 1:8 | Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Master, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the good news according to the power of Elohim; | 
|  | 1:9 | 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 Messiah Yahshua before the world began, | 
|  | 1:10 | But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Yahshua Messiah, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the good news: | 
|  | 1:11 | Whereunto  I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. | 
|  | 1:12 | 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. | 
|  | 1:13 | Hold fast the form of sound words, which thou hast heard of me, in faith and love which is in Messiah Yahshua. | 
|  | 1:14 | That good thing which was committed unto thee keep by the Holy Spirit which dwelleth in us. | 
|  | 1:15 | This thou knowest that all they which are in Asia be turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. | 
|  | 1:16 | The Master give mercy unto the house of Onesiphorus; for he oft refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain: | 
|  | 1:17 | But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me. | 
|  | 1:18 | The Master grant unto him that he may find mercy of Yahweh in that day: and in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou knowest very well. |
