Revised Standard Version RSV
New International Version NIV
12 Therefore I intend always to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the truth that you have.
12
So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have.
13 I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to arouse you by way of reminder,
13
I think it is right to refresh your memory as long as I live in the tent of this body,
14 since I know that the putting off of my body will be soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.
14
because I know that I will soon put it aside, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.
15 And I will see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.
15
And I will make every effort to see that after my departure you will always be able to remember these things.
