Richard Francis Weymouth Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech…

But I am not ashamed, for I know in whom my trust reposes, and I am confident that He has it in His power to keep what I have entrusted to Him safe until that day.

003:007 and are always learning something new, and yet are never able to arrive at real knowledge of the truth.
003:008 And just as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so also these false teachers withstand the truth—being, as they are, men of debased intellects, and of no real worth so far as faith is concerned.

002:001 You then, my child, must be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
002:002 All that you have been taught by me in the hearing of many witnesses, you must hand on to trusty men who shall themselves, in turn, be competent to instruct others also.
002:003 As a good soldier of Christ Jesus accept your share of suffering.
002:004 Every one who serves as a soldier keeps himself from becoming entangled in the world's business—so that he may satisfy the officer who enlisted him.
