Amen. 18This charge I commit to thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mayest war a good warfare; 19Holding faith and a good conscience; which some having put away, concerning faith have made shipwreck: 20Of whom is Hymeneus and Alexander; whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
