9 But these people will not make any more progress—for their folly, like that of Jannes and Jambres, will be obvious to everyone.
10 You, however, closely followed my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faithfulness, patience, love, perseverance—
11 as well as persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured! And the Lord rescued me from them all!
12 Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted.
13 But evil men and imposters will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
14 You, however, continue in what you have learned and what you have become convinced of. For you know from whom you have learned,
15 and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to make you wise, leading to salvation through trusting in Messiah Yeshua.
