1 Timothy 1:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 [a]Therefore I thank him which hath made me [b]strong, that is, Christ Jesus our Lord: for he counted me faithful, and put me in his service:
13 When before I was a [c]blasphemer, and a persecutor, and an oppressor: but I was received to mercy: for I did it ignorantly through unbelief.
14 But the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant [d]with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus.
