14And the grace of our Lord was very great, with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15It is a true saying, in which all may put their faith, that Christ Jesus came into the world to give salvation to sinners, of whom I am the chief:
16But for this reason I was given mercy, so that in me, the chief of sinners, Jesus Christ might make clear all his mercy, as an example to those who in the future would have faith in him to eternal life.
17Now to the King eternal, ever-living, unseen, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. So be it.
18This order I give to you, Timothy my son, in harmony with the words of the prophets about you, so that by them you may be strong, fighting the good fight,
19Keeping faith, and being conscious of well-doing; for some, by not doing these things, have gone wrong in relation to the faith:
20Such are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given up to Satan, so that they may say no more evil words against God.
