3 Doy gracias a Dios a Quien sirvo con limpia conciencia, como lo hicieron mis antepasados, cuando sin cesar me recuerdo de ti en mis conversaciones con Dios de noche y de día,
3 Doy gracias á Dios, al cual sirvo desde mis mayores con limpia conciencia, de que sin cesar tengo memoria de ti en mis oraciones noche y día;
3 I thank God, whom I serve as my forefathers did, with a pure conscience. How unceasing is my memory of you in my petitions, night and day
4 al recordar tus lágrimas y anhelar verte para regocijarme.
4 Deseando verte, acordándome de tus lágrimas, para ser lleno de gozo;
4 longing to see you, remembering your tears, that I may be filled with joy;
5 Tengo presente el recuerdo de la fe sincera que hay en ti, la cual residió primero en tu abuela Loida y en tu madre Eunice, y estoy persuadido de que también en ti.
5 Trayendo á la memoria la fe no fingida que hay en ti, la cual residió primero en tu abuela Loida, y en tu madre Eunice; y estoy cierto que en ti también.
5 having been reminded of the sincere faith that is in you, which lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, in you also.
6 Por esta razón te recuerdo que avives el fuego, el don de Dios que está en ti por medio de la imposición de mis manos.
6 Por lo cual te aconsejo que despiertes el don de Dios, que está en ti por la imposición de mis manos.
6 For this cause, I remind you that you should stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.
7 Porque Dios no nos dio espíritu de cobardía, sino de poder, de amor y de dominio propio.
7 Porque no nos ha dado Dios el espíritu de temor, sino [el] de fortaleza, y de amor, y de templanza.
7 For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
8 Por tanto no te avergüences del testimonio de nuestro Señor, ni de mí, su prisionero. Sino comparte conmigo el sufrimiento en las Buenas Noticias según [el] poder de Dios,
8 Por tanto no te avergüences del testimonio de nuestro Señor, ni de mí, preso suyo; antes sé participante de los trabajos del evangelio según la virtud de Dios,
8 Therefore 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,
9 Quien nos salvó y llamó con vocación santa, no según nuestras obras, sino según su propio propósito y gracia que nos fue dada en Cristo Jesús antes de [los ]tiempos eternos.
9 Que nos salvó y llamó con vocación santa, no conforme á nuestras obras, mas según el intento suyo y gracia, la cual nos es dada en Cristo Jesús antes de los tiempos de los siglos,
9 who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,
10 Pero ahora [la gracia ]fue manifestada por medio de la aparición de nuestro Salvador, Cristo Jesús, Quien ciertamente abolió la muerte al sacar a luz [la] vida y [la] inmortalidad por medio de las Buenas Noticias,
10 Mas ahora es manifestada por la aparición de nuestro Salvador Jesucristo, el cual quitó la muerte, y sacó á la luz la vida y la inmortalidad por el evangelio;
10 but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior, Christ Jesus, who abolished death, and brought life and immortality to light through the Good News.
11 para las cuales yo fui designado predicador, apóstol y maestro,
11 Del cual yo soy puesto predicador, y apóstol, y maestro de los Gentiles.
11 For this I was appointed as a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.
12 razón por la cual también soporto estas cosas. Pero no me avergüenzo, porque sé en Quién creí y me persuadí de que es poderoso para guardar mi depósito hasta aquel día.
12 Por lo cual asimismo padezco esto: mas no me avergüenzo; porque yo sé á quien he creído, y estoy cierto que es poderoso para guardar mi depósito para aquel día.
12 For this cause I also suffer these things. Yet I am not ashamed, for I know him whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that he is able to guard that which I have committed to him against that day.
13 Retén copia calcada de las palabras sanas que escuchaste de mí, la fe y el amor en Cristo Jesús.
13 Retén la forma de las sanas palabras que de mí oíste, en la fe y amor que es en Cristo Jesús.
13 Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
14 Guarda el buen depósito por medio del Espíritu Santo que vive en nosotros.

15 Sabes que todos los de Asia se alejaron de mí, de los cuales son Figelo y Hermógenes.
15 [Ya] sabes esto, que me han sido contrarios todos los que son en Asia, de los cuales son Figello y Hermógenes.
15 This you know, that all who are in Asia turned away from me, of whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.
16 El Señor conceda misericordia a la casa de Onesíforo, pues muchas veces me refrescó y no se avergonzó de mi cautividad.
16 Dé el Señor misericordia á la casa de Onesíforo; que muchas veces me refrigeró, y no se avergonzó de mi cadena:
16 May the Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my chain,
17 Al hallarse en Roma, diligentemente me buscó y [me] encontró.
17 Antes, estando él en Roma, me buscó solícitamente, y me halló.
17 but when he was in Rome, he sought me diligently and found me
18 El Señor tenga misericordia de él en aquel día. Tú sabes bien cuántos servicios nos brindó en Éfeso.
18 Déle el Señor que halle misericordia cerca del Señor en aquel día. Y cuánto [nos] ayudó en Efeso, tú lo sabes mejor.
18 (the Lord grant to him to find the Lord’s mercy in that day); and in how many things he served at Ephesus, you know very well.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
What is the reason of his writing this second Epistle to Timothy? He had said, "I hope to come unto thee shortly" (1 Tim. iii.
