[2 Tim 3:12] Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
[2 Tim 3:13] For evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
[2 Tim 3:14] But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;
[2 Tim 3:15] And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
[2 Tim 3:16] And all scripture given by inspiration of God, is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness;
[2 Tim 3:17] That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
