2 Timothy 2:10-13 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

10. So I put up with everything for the good of God's chosen people. Then they also can be saved. Christ Jesus saves them. He gives them glory that will last forever.

11. Here is a saying you can trust. If we died with him, we will also live with him.

12. If we don't give up, we will also rule with him. If we say we don't know him, he will also say he doesn't know us.

13. Even if we are not faithful, he will remain faithful. He must be true to himself.
