2 Timothy 2:20 in Context — 2 Timothy 2
18 qui se sont détournés de la vérité, disant que la résurrection est déjà arrivée, et qui renversent la foi de quelques uns.
19 Néanmoins, le solide fondement de Dieu reste debout, avec ces paroles qui lui servent de sceau: Le Seigneur connaît ceux qui lui appartiennent; et: Quiconque prononce le nom du Seigneur, qu’il s’éloigne de l’iniquité.
20 Dans une grande maison, il n’y a pas seulement des vases d’or et d’argent, mais il y en a aussi de bois et de terre; les uns sont des vases d’honneur, et les autres sont d’un usage vil.
21 Si donc quelqu’un se conserve pur, en s’abstenant de ces choses, il sera un vase d’honneur, sanctifié, utile à son maître, propre à toute bonne œuvre.
22 Fuis les passions de la jeunesse, et recherche la justice, la foi, la charité, la paix, avec ceux qui invoquent le Seigneur d’un cœur pur.
