| For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline. | For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline. |
| Who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was granted to us in Christ Jesus from all eternity. | He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time. |
