# The crown of righteousness has been reserved for me "God has reserved the crown of righteousness for me" # crown of righteousness Just as the judge of a race gives a crown to the winner, when Paul finishes his life, God will declare that Paul is righteous. # on that day "on the day when the Lord comes again" or "on the day when God judges people" # but also to all those who have loved his appearing "but also he will give it to those who are eagerly waiting for him to return"
