King James Version
“In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;”
— 2 Timothy 2:25, King James Version
“in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth,”
“in gentleness correcting those who oppose him: perhaps God may give them repentance leading to a full knowledge of the truth,”
“correcting opponents with gentleness. Perhaps God will grant them repentance and then knowledge of the truth”
“in meekness setting right those who oppose, ifGod perhaps may sometime give them repentance to acknowledgment of [the] truth,”
“With modesty admonishing them that resist the truth: if peradventure God may give them repentance to know the truth;”
“Gently guiding those who go against the teaching; if by chance God may give them a change of heart and true knowledge,”
“In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;”
Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
