2 Timothy 2:16


← 2 Timothy 2:15 2 Timothy 2:16 (KJV) 2 Timothy 2:17 →
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
