2 Timothy 1:2-4

Worldwide English (New Testament)

² Timothy, you are my son and I love you very much. May God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord, bless you. May they be kind to you and give you peace.

³ I worship God with a clean heart, as my fathers did. And I thank God when I talk to him about you. I always do this night and day.

⁴ I want very much to see you. I remember how you cried when we left you. When I see you, how happy I shall be!
