2 Timotius 1:18

1:18 May the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that day! ¹  And you know very well all the ways he served me in Ephesus. ² 

2 Timotius 2:12

2:12 If we endure, we will also reign with him. ³ 

If we deny ⁴  him, ⁵  he will also deny us.

2 Timotius 4:10

4:10 For Demas deserted me, since he loved ⁶  the present age, and he went to Thessalonica. ⁷  Crescens went to Galatia and Titus to Dalmatia.

[1:18]  ¹ sn That day is a reference to the day when Onesiphorus (v. 16) stands before Christ to give account for his service (cf. v. 12; 1 Cor 3:13; 2 Cor 5:9-10).

[1:18]  ² tn Grk “all the ways he served in Ephesus.”

[2:12]  ³ tn Grk “died together…will live together…will reign together,” without “him” stated explicitly. But “him” is implied by the parallel ideas in Rom 6:8; 8:17 and by the reference to Christ in vv. 12b-13.

[2:12]  ⁴ tn Or “renounce,” “disown,” “repudiate.” It is important to note that the object of Christ’s denial is “us.” The text does not contain an implied object complement (“he will deny us [x]”), which would mean that Christ was withholding something from us (for example, “The owner denied his pets water”), since the verb ἀρνέομαι (arneomai) is not one of the category of verbs that normally occurs in these constructions (see ExSyn 182-89).

[2:12]  ⁵ tn Grk “if we renounce,” but the “him” is implied by the parallel clauses.

[4:10]  ⁶ tn Grk “having loved.”
