2 Timothy 3:8

Verse 8 of 17. The 3rd of 4 chapters in 2 Timothy, in The Letters of Paul.

4traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

5holding a form of godliness but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.

6For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

7always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

8Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.

9But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.

10But you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness,

11persecutions, and sufferings—those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. The Lord delivered me out of them all.

12Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
