2 Timothy 1:6

1:6 Because of this I remind you to rekindle God’s gift that you possess ¹  through the laying on of my hands.

2 Timothy 1:1

Salutation

1:1 From Paul, ⁵  an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, to further the promise ⁶  of life in Christ Jesus,

2 Timothy 1:14

1:14 Protect that good thing ⁷  entrusted to you, through the Holy Spirit who lives within us.

2 Timothy 2:2

2:2 And entrust what you heard me say ⁸  in the presence of many others as witnesses ⁹  to faithful people ¹⁰  who will be competent ¹¹  to teach others as well.

2 Timothy 3:15

3:15 and how from infancy you have known the holy writings, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

2 Timothy 1:12

1:12 Because of this, in fact, I suffer as I do. ¹²  But I am not ashamed, because I know the one in whom my faith is set ¹³  and I am convinced that he is able to protect what has been entrusted to me ¹⁴  until that day. ¹⁵ 

2 Timothy 4:17

4:17 But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message ¹⁶  would be fully proclaimed ¹⁷  for all the Gentiles to hear. And so I was delivered from the lion’s mouth!

[1:6]  ¹ tn Grk “that is in you.”

[1:10]  ² tn Grk “having broken…and having brought…” (describing Christ). Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here (and at the beginning of v. 11) in the translation.

[2:10]  ³ tn Grk “the elect.”

[2:10]  ⁴ tn Grk “with eternal glory.”

[1:1]  ⁴ tn Grk “Paul.” The word “from” is not in the Greek text, but has been supplied to indicate the sender of the letter.

[1:1]  ⁵ tn Grk “for the promise…” or possibly “in accordance with the promise…”

[1:14]  ⁵ sn That good thing (Grk “the good deposit”) refers to the truth of the gospel committed to Timothy (cf. 1 Tim 6:20).

[2:2]  ⁶ tn Grk “what you heard from me” (cf. 1:13).

[2:2]  ⁷ tn Grk “through many witnesses.” The “through” is used here to show attendant circumstances: “accompanied by,” “in the presence of.”

[2:2]  ⁸ tn Grk “faithful men”; but here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") is generic, referring to both men and women.

[2:2]  ⁹ tn Or “able” (see Paul’s use of this word in regard to ministry in 2 Cor 2:16; 3:5-6).

[1:12]  ⁷ tn Grk “suffer these things.”

[1:12]  ⁸ tn Or “in whom I have believed.”

[1:12]  ⁹ sn What has been entrusted to me (Grk “my entrustment,” meaning either (1) “what I have entrusted to him” [his life, destiny, etc.] or (2) “what he has entrusted to me” [the truth of the gospel]). The parallel with v. 14 and use of similar words in the pastorals (1 Tim 6:20; 2 Tim 2:2) argue for the latter sense.

[1:12]  ¹⁰ sn That day is a reference to the day when Paul would stand before Christ to give account for his service (cf. 2 Tim 1:18; 1 Cor 3:13; 2 Cor 5:9-10).

[4:17]  ⁸ tn Or “the preaching.”

[4:17]  ⁹ tn Grk “might be completely fulfilled.”
