(2ti 4:1) I charge {thee} therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
(2ti 4:2) Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
(2ti 4:3) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
(2ti 4:4) And they shall turn away {their} ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
(2ti 4:5) But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
(2ti 4:6) For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
(2ti 4:7) I have fought a good fight, I have finished {my} course, I have kept the faith:
(2ti 4:8) Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
(2ti 4:9) Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:
(2ti 4:10) For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.
(2ti 4:11) Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.
(2ti 4:12) And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus.
(2ti 4:13) The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring {with thee}, and the books, {but} especially the parchments.
(2ti 4:14) Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:
(2ti 4:15) Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.
(2ti 4:16) At my first answer no man stood with me, but all {men} forsook me: {I pray God} that it may not be laid to their charge.
(2ti 4:17) Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and {that} all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
(2ti 4:18) And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve {me} unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom {be} glory for ever and ever. Amen.
(2ti 4:19) Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.
(2ti 4:20) Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.
(2ti 4:21) Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.
(2ti 4:22) The Lord Jesus Christ {be} with thy spirit. Grace {be} with you. Amen.
