2 Timothy 2

NET

26 and they will come to their senses and escape the devil’s trap where they are held captive to do his will.


Darby

26 and that they may awake up out of the snare of the devil, [who are] taken by him, for *his*D8920 will.


Darby Bible Notes

*his* - It is here a question whether it be God's will or Satan's; whether 'for' (eis) refers to 'awake up' or 'taken captive.' 'awake up for his (God's) will out of the snare,' &c.; that those who have been taken as prey by the devil may, God having given them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth, awake up to follow his will. I rather prefer its application to God.


KJV

26 And [that] they may recoverK7137themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captiveK7138by him at his will.


KJV Bible Notes

recover: Gr. awake. taken captive: Gr. taken alive.
