2 Timothy 2:3-5

21st Century King James Version

³ Endure thou therefore hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

⁴ No man who warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

⁵ And if also a man strive for masteries, yet he is not crowned unless he strive lawfully.
