1 Timothy 1:12-14

New Matthew Bible

¹² And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has made me strong. For he counted me true and put me in office, ¹³ when before I was a blasphemer and a persecutor, and full of violence. But I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly, through unbelief. ¹⁴ And the grace of our Lord abounded more greatly with faith and love, which is in Christ Jesus.
