May

And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men; for not everyone holds to the faith.

May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.

Take note of anyone who does not obey the instructions we have given in this letter. Do not associate with him, so that he may be ashamed.

Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.

Timothy, my child, I entrust you with this command in keeping with the previous prophecies about you, so that by them you may fight the good fight,

…for kings and all those in authority—so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity.

He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same condemnation as the devil.

…treasuring up for themselves a firm foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is truly life.

Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy.

May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he has often refreshed me and was unashamed of my chains.

May the Lord grant Onesiphorus His mercy on that day. You know very well how much he ministered to me in Ephesus.

For this reason I endure all things for the sake of the elect, so that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory.

He must gently reprove those who oppose him, in the hope that God may grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth.

…so that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped for every good work.

At my first defense, no one stood with me, but everyone deserted me. May it not be charged against them.

I pray that your partnership in the faith may become effective as you fully acknowledge every good thing that is ours in Christ.

But exhort one another daily, as long as it is called today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness.

Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged.

…how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself unblemished to God, purify our consciences from works of death, so that we may serve the living God!

Therefore Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.

Our fathers disciplined us for a short time as they thought best, but God disciplines us for our good, so that we may share in His holiness.

Make straight paths for your feet, so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.

The words “Once more” signify the removal of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that the unshakable may remain.

And I especially urge you to pray that I may be restored to you soon.

Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep,

…equip you with every good thing to do His will. And may He accomplish in us what is pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

And when you do ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may squander it on your pleasures.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail.

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in various trials

…so that the proven character of your faith—more precious than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,

Conduct yourselves with such honor among the Gentiles that, though they slander you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day He visits us.

Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.

…keeping a clear conscience, so that those who slander you may be put to shame by your good behavior in Christ.

If anyone speaks, he should speak as one conveying the words of God. If anyone serves, he should serve with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen.

But rejoice that you share in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed at the revelation of His glory.

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, so that in due time He may exalt you.

Through these He has given us His precious and magnificent promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, now that you have escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.

We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And this fellowship of ours is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ.

We write these things so that our joy may be complete.

And now, little children, remain in Christ, so that when He appears, we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming.

In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him.

I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true—in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

Watch yourselves, so that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be fully rewarded.

I have many things to write to you, but I would prefer not to do so with paper and ink. Instead, I hope to come and speak with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

Beloved, I pray that in every way you may prosper and enjoy good health, as your soul also prospers.

Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers for the truth.

I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not exposed, and salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see.

I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not exposed, and salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see.

…so that you may eat the flesh of kings and commanders and mighty men, of horses and riders, of everyone slave and free, small and great.”

Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by its gates.
