2 Timothy 1:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ For God hath not given us the spirit of fear: but of power, and of love, and of sobriety.

⁸ Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but labour with the gospel, according to the power of God,

⁹ Who hath delivered us and called us by his holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the times of the world.
