New Testament

2 Timothy 3:6-12 New King James Version (NKJV)

6. For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

7. always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

8. Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith;

9. but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

10. But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance,

11. persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me.

12. Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
