2 Timothy 4

Previous chapter Index
1 Therefore, I adjure you before God and our Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom:
2 Preach a word, infuse in time and not in time, reprove, forbid, exhort with all longsuffering and edification.
3 For there will be a time when sound doctrine will not be accepted, but by their whims they will elect teachers for themselves, who would flatter their ears;
4 And from the truth they turn away the ears and turn to fables.
5 But be thou watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, do your service.
6th For I already become a sacrifice, and the time of my departure has come.
7th I fought the good fight, I committed the current, I kept the faith;
8 And now the crown of righteousness is prepared for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on that day; And not only to me, but to everyone who loved his appearing.

9 Try to come to me soon.
10 For Demas forsook me, having loved this present age, and went to Thessalonica, Criscent to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia; One Luke with me.
eleven Mark take it and bring it with you, for I need it for service.
12 I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
13 When you go, bring the phelon that I left in Troas near Karp, and books, especially leather ones.
14 Alexander the Copperman did me a lot of harm. May the LORD repay him according to his deeds!
15 Beware of him and you, because he strongly opposed our words.

16 At my first reply, there was no one with me, but everyone left me. Let it not be imputed to them!
17th The Lord appeared to me and strengthened me, so that through me the gospel was established and all the Gentiles heard; And I got rid of the lion's jaws.
18 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil deed and save for His Heavenly Kingdom, to Him be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
19 Greet Priscilla and Aquila and the house of Onisiphorus.
20 Erastus remained in Corinth; Trofim I left the patient in Milita.
21 Try to come before winter. Yevul, and Pud, and Lin, and Claudius, and all the brethren greet you.
22 Lord Jesus Christ with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.
