14. Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord will render to him according to his works:
15. of whom be thou ware also; for he greatly withstood our words.
16. At my first defence no one took my part, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to their account.
17. But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me; that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
