1 Timothy 1:15-17
American Standard Version
15 Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief: 16 howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me as chief might Jesus Christ show forth all his longsuffering, for an ensample of them that should thereafter believe on him unto eternal life. 17 Now unto the King [a]eternal, [b]immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory [c]for ever and ever. Amen.

New International Version
15 Here is a trustworthy saying(A) that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners(B)—of whom I am the worst. 16 But for that very reason I was shown mercy(C) so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience(D) as an example for those who would believe(E) in him and receive eternal life.(F) 17 Now to the King(G) eternal, immortal,(H) invisible,(I) the only God,(J) be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.(K)
