AKJV - II Timothy - 4

4:1  I charge you therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

4:2  Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine.

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;

4:4  And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned to fables.

4:5  But watch you in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry.

4:6  For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.

4:7  I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:

4:8  From now on 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 to all them also that love his appearing.

4:9  Do your diligence to come shortly to me:

4:10  For Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

4:11  Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with you: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.

4:12  And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus.

4:13  The cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus, when you come, bring with you, and the books, but especially the parchments.

4:14  Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:

4:15  Of whom be you ware also; for he has greatly withstood our words.

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.

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.

4:18  And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me to his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

4:19  Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.

4:20  Erastus stayed at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.

4:21  Do your diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brothers.

4:22  The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.
