2 Timothy 1:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ Who hath delivered us and called us by his holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the times of the world.

¹⁰ But is now made manifest by the illumination of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath destroyed death, and hath brought to light life and incorruption by the gospel:

¹¹ Wherein I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and teacher of the Gentiles.
