The King James Version Bible

1 Timothy 1:16-20

  1. Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.

  2. Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

  3. This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare;

  4. Holding faith, and a good conscience; which some having put away concerning faith have made shipwreck:

  5. Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
