Hebrews 13:23

¹Paul, a prisoner of Christ^[+] Jesus, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our beloved fellow worker,

²and sent Timothy, our brother and God’s servant in the Good News of Christ, to establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith,

⁸Therefore don’t be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but endure hardship for the Good News according to the power of God,

¹⁴I told him, “My lord, you know.” He said to me, “These are those who came out of the great suffering.^[+] They washed their robes and made them white in the Lamb’s blood.

²⁵But now, I say, I am going to Jerusalem, serving the saints.

¹He came to Derbe and Lystra; and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess who believed, but his father was a Greek. ²The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him. ³Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

²⁸When therefore I have accomplished this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will go on by way of you to Spain.

¹²Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.

²²Also, prepare a guest room for me, for I hope that through your prayers I will be restored to you.
