NETBible

I put this charge¹ before you, Timothy my child, in keeping with the prophecies once spoken about you,² in order that with such encouragement³ you may fight the good fight.

NET Notes

¹sn This charge refers to the task Paul described to Timothy in vv. 3-7 above.

²sn The prophecies once spoken about you were apparently spoken at Timothy’s ordination (cf. 1 Tim 4:14) and perhaps spoke of what God would do through him. Thus they can encourage him in his work, as the next clause says.

³tn Grk “that by them you might fight…” (a reference to the prophecies which can encourage him in his work).
