12 And indeed, all those who want to live in a godly manner in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.
13 But evil people and imposters will progress to the worse, deceiving and being deceived.
14 But you continue in the things which you have learned and are convinced of, because you know from whom you learned them,
15 and that from childhood you have known the holy writings that are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness,
17 in order that the person of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
