1 Timothy 1:15-17
New Testament for Everyone
15 Here is a word you can trust, which deserves total approval: “Messiah Jesus came into the world to save sinners”—and I’m the worst of them! 16 But this was why I received mercy: so that in me, precisely as the worst, Messiah Jesus could demonstrate the full scale of his patience, and make me a pattern for those who were going to believe in him and so attain the life of the age to come. 17 To the King of the ages, the one and only God, immortal and invisible, be honor and glory to the ages of ages, Amen!

1 Timothy 1:15-17
New International Version
15 Here is a trustworthy saying(A) that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners(B)—of whom I am the worst. 16 But for that very reason I was shown mercy(C) so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience(D) as an example for those who would believe(E) in him and receive eternal life.(F) 17 Now to the King(G) eternal, immortal,(H) invisible,(I) the only God,(J) be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.(K)
