2 Timothy 2:26

26 enabling them to escape the Devil's trap, where they are caught and held captive, forced to run his errands.

2 Timothy 2:26 In-Context

24 God's servant must not be argumentative, but a gentle listener and a teacher who keeps cool,
25 working firmly but patiently with those who refuse to obey. You never know how or when God might sober them up with a change of heart and a turning to the truth,
26 enabling them to escape the Devil's trap, where they are caught and held captive, forced to run his errands.
