Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 1:1 | Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus, |
| 1:2 | to my beloved child Timothy: Grace, mercy, peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. |
| 1:3 | I have thanks to God, whom I worship from my forebears in a pure conscience, how unceasingly I have remembrance concerning you in my petitions night and day, |
| 1:4 | longing to see you, being reminded of your tears, that I may be filled with joy, |
| 1:5 | taking recollection of the unpretended faith in you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice, and I am assured that it is also in you. |
| 1:6 | For which cause I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. |
| 1:7 | For God did not give a spirit of cowardice to us, but of power and of love, and of self-control. |
| 1:8 | Then do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me, His prisoner. But suffer hardship with the gospel, according to the power of God, |
| 1:9 | He having saved us and having called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace given to us in Christ Jesus before eternal times, |
| 1:10 | but now revealed through the appearance of our Savior, Jesus Christ, making death of no effect, bringing life and incorruptibility to light through the gospel, |
| 1:11 | for which I was appointed a herald and apostle and a teacher of nations. |
| 1:12 | For which cause I also suffer these things. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that He is able to guard my deposit until that Day. |
| 1:13 | Hold a pattern of sound words which you heard from me, in faith and love in Christ Jesus. |
| 1:14 | Guard the good Deposit given through the Holy Spirit indwelling in us. |
| 1:15 | You know this, that all those in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes. |
| 1:16 | May the Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me, and he was not ashamed of my chain, |
| 1:17 | but having come to Rome, he more diligently sought and found me . |
| 1:18 | May the Lord give to him to find mercy from the Lord in that Day. And what things he served in Ephesus, you know very well. |
