2 Timothy 2:22-26

22 So ^aflee ^byouthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with ^cthose who call on the Lord ^dfrom a pure heart. 23 Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant ^econtroversies; you know that they breed quarrels. 24 And ^fthe Lord’s servant ^{▼▼Greek bondservant} must not be quarrelsome but ^hkind to everyone, ⁱable to teach, patiently enduring evil, 25 correcting his opponents ^jwith gentleness. God ^kmay perhaps grant them repentance ^lleading to a knowledge of the truth, 26 and they may come to their senses and escape from ^mthe snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.
