2Ti 2 Timothy2. Timoteus, chapterkapittel Second Epistle to TimothyPaulus’ andre brev til Timoteus, chapterkapittel 2

But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, [and] prepared unto every good work.
