Be Strong | ||||
 NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 1 You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. | 1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. | 1 Thou therefore, my child, be strengthened in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. | 1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace which is in Christ Jesus: | 1 Thou, therefore, my child, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus, | 2 The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. | 2 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. | 2 And the things which thou hast heard from me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. | 2 And the things which thou hast heard of me by many witnesses, the same commend to faithful men, who shall be fit to teach others also. | 2 and the things that thou didst hear from me through many witnesses, these things be committing to stedfast men, who shall be sufficient also others to teach; | 3 Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. | 3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. | 3 Suffer hardship with me , as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. | 3 Labour as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. | 3 thou, therefore, suffer evil as a good soldier of Jesus Christ; | 4 No soldier in active service entangles himself in the affairs of everyday life, so that he may please the one who enlisted him as a soldier. | 4 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. | 4 No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of this life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier. | 4 No man, being a soldier to God, entangleth himself with secular businesses; that he may please him to whom he hath engaged himself. | 4 no one serving as a soldier did entangle himself with the affairs of life, that him who did enlist him he may please; | 5 Also if anyone competes as an athlete, he does not win the prize unless he competes according to the rules. | 5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. | 5 And if also a man contend in the games, he is not crowded, except he have contended lawfully. | 5 For he also that striveth for the mastery, is not crowned, except he strive lawfully. | 5 and if also any one may strive, he is not crowned, except he may strive lawfully; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 6 The hard-working farmer ought to be the first to receive his share of the crops. | 6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits. | 6 The husbandmen that laboreth must be the first to partake of the fruits. | 6 The husbandman, that laboureth, must first partake of the fruits. | 6 the labouring husbandman it behoveth first of the fruits to partake; | 7 Consider what I say, for the Lord will give you understanding in everything. | 7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things. | 7 Consider what I say; for the Lord shall give thee understanding in all things. | 7 Understand what I say: for the Lord will give thee in all things understanding. | 7 be considering what things I say, for the Lord give to thee understanding in all things. | 8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descendant of David, according to my gospel, | 8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel: | 8 Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel: | 8 Be mindful that the Lord Jesus Christ is risen again from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my gospel. | 8 Remember Jesus Christ, raised out of the dead, of the seed of David, according to my good news, | 9 for which I suffer hardship even to imprisonment as a criminal; but the word of God is not imprisoned. | 9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound. | 9 wherein I suffer hardship unto bonds, as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound. | 9 Wherein I labour even unto bands, as an evildoer; but the word of God is not bound. | 9 in which I suffer evil -- unto bonds, as an evil-doer, but the word of God hath not been bound; | 10 For this reason I endure all things for the sake of those who are chosen, so that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus and with it eternal glory. | 10 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. | 10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. | 10 Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation, which is in Christ Jesus, with heavenly glory. | 10 because of this all things do I endure, because of the choice ones, that they also salvation may obtain that is in Christ Jesus, with glory age-during. | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 11 It is a trustworthy statement: For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him; | 11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: | 11 Faithful is the saying: For if we died with him, we shall also live with him: | 11 A faithful saying: for if we be dead with him, we shall live also with him. | 11 Stedfast is the word: For if we died together -- we also shall live together; | 12 If we endure, we will also reign with Him; If we deny Him, He also will deny us; | 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: | 12 if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us: | 12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him. If we deny him, he will also deny us. | 12 if we do endure together -- we shall also reign together; if we deny him, he also shall deny us; | 13 If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny Himself. | 13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself. | 13 if we are faithless, he abideth faithful; for he cannot deny himself. | 13 If we believe not, he continueth faithful, he can not deny himself. | 13 if we are not stedfast, he remaineth stedfast; to deny himself he is not able. | An Unashamed Workman |
| 14 Remind them of these things, and solemnly charge them in the presence of God not to wrangle about words, which is useless and leads to the ruin of the hearers. | 14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. | 14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them in the sight of the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of them that hear. | 14 Of these things put them in mind, charging them before the Lord. Contend not in words, for it is to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. | 14 These things remind them of, testifying fully before the Lord -- not to strive about words to nothing profitable, but to the subversion of those hearing; | 15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. | 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. | 15 Give diligence to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, handling aright the word of truth. | 15 Carefully study to present thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. | 15 be diligent to present thyself approved to God -- a workman irreproachable, rightly dividing the word of the truth; | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 16 But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness, | 16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. | 16 But shun profane babblings: for they will proceed further in ungodliness, | 16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they grow much towards ungodliness. | 16 and the profane vain talkings stand aloof from, for to more impiety they will advance, | 17 and their talk will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, | 17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; | 17 and their word will eat as doth a gangrene: or whom is Hymenaeus an Philetus; | 17 And their speech spreadeth like a canker: of whom are Hymeneus and Philetus: | 17 and their word as a gangrene will have pasture, of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus, | 18 men who have gone astray from the truth saying that the resurrection has already taken place, and they upset the faith of some. | 18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. | 18 men who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already, and overthrow the faith of some. | 18 Who have erred from the truth, saying, that the resurrection is past already, and have subverted the faith of some. | 18 who concerning the truth did swerve, saying the rising again to have already been, and do overthrow the faith of some; | 19 Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness." | 19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. | 19 Howbeit the firm foundation of God standeth, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his: and, Let every one that nameth the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness. | 19 But the sure foundation of God standeth firm, having this seal: the Lord knoweth who are his; and let every one depart from iniquity who nameth the name of the Lord. | 19 sure, nevertheless, hath the foundation of God stood, having this seal, 'The Lord hath known those who are His,' and 'Let him depart from unrighteousness -- every one who is naming the name of Christ.' | 20 Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also vessels of wood and of earthenware, and some to honor and some to dishonor. | 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. | 20 Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor. | 20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and earth: and some indeed unto honour, but some unto dishonour. | 20 And in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth, and some to honour, and some to dishonour: | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 21 Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work. | 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work. | 21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work. | 21 If any man therefore shall cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified and profitable to the Lord, prepared unto every good work. | 21 if, then, any one may cleanse himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified and profitable to the master -- to every good work having been prepared, | 22 Now flee from youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart. | 22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. | 22 after righteousness, faith, love, pace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. | 22 But flee thou youthful desires, and pursue justice, faith, charity, and peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. | 22 and the youthful lusts flee thou, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those calling upon the Lord out of a pure heart; | 23 But refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. | 23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. | 23 But foolish and ignorant questionings refuse, knowing that they gender strifes. | 23 And avoid foolish and unlearned questions, knowing that they beget strifes. | 23 and the foolish and uninstructed questions be avoiding, having known that they beget strife, | 24 The Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, | 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, | 24 And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing, | 24 But the servant of the Lord must not wrangle: but be mild towards all men, apt to teach, patient, | 24 and a servant of the Lord it behoveth not to strive, but to be gentle unto all, apt to teach, patient under evil, | 25 with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, | 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; | 25 in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, | 25 With modesty admonishing them that resist the truth: if peradventure God may give them repentance to know the truth, | 25 in meekness instructing those opposing -- if perhaps God may give to them repentance to an acknowledging of the truth, | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |
| 26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will. | 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. | 26 and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him unto his will. | 26 And they may recover themselves from the snares of the devil, by whom they are held captive at his will. | 26 and they may awake out of the devil's snare, having been caught by him at his will. |
