9But they will go no farther: for their foolish behaviour will be clear to all men, as theirs was in the end.
10But you took as your example my teaching, behaviour, purpose, and faith; my long waiting, my love, my quiet undergoing of trouble;
11My punishments and pain; the things which came to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; the cruel attacks made on me: and the Lord made me free from them all.
12Yes, and all whose purpose is to be living in the knowledge of God in Christ Jesus, will be cruelly attacked.
13Evil and false men will become worse and worse, using deceit and themselves overcome by deceit.
14But see that you keep to the teaching you have been given and the things of which you are certain, conscious of who has been your teacher;
15And that from the time when you were a child, you have had knowledge of the holy Writings, which are able to make you wise to salvation, through faith in Christ Jesus.
