Paul's Second Letter to Timothy, Chapter 4
{4:1} I command you therefore before God and the Lord Yeshua the
Messiah, who will judge the living and the dead at his appearing and
his Kingdom: {4:2} proclaim the word; be urgent in season and out of
season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with all patience and teaching.
{4:3} For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound
doctrine, but, having itching ears, will heap up for themselves
teachers after their own lusts; {4:4} and will turn away their ears
from the truth, and turn aside to fables. {4:5} But you be sober in
all things, suffer hardship, do the work of an evangelist, and fulfill
your ministry.
{4:6} For I am already being offered, and the time of my departure
has come. {4:7} I have fought the good fight. I have finished the
course. I have kept the faith. {4:8} From now on, there is stored up
for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous
judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to
all those who have loved his appearing. {4:9} Be diligent to come to
me soon, {4:10} for Demas left me, having loved this present world,
and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.
{4:11} Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you, for he
is useful to me for service. {4:12} But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
{4:13} Bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus when you come,
and the books, especially the parchments. {4:14} Alexander, the
coppersmith, did much evil to me. The Lord will repay him according to
his works, {4:15} of whom you also must beware; for he greatly opposed
our words.
{4:16} At my first defense, no one came to help me, but all left me.
May it not be held against them. {4:17} 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. {4:18} And the Lord will deliver me from
every evil work, and will preserve me for his heavenly Kingdom; to
whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
{4:19} Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus. {4:20}
Erastus remained at Corinth, but I left Trophimus at Miletus sick.
{4:21} Be diligent to come before winter. Eubulus salutes you, as do
Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers. {4:22} The Lord Yeshua
the Messiah be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.
