2 Timothy 4

2 Timothy · Chapter 4

2 Timothy 4:19

1I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;2Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.3For 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;4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.5But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.6For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.7I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:8Henceforth 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.9Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:10For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.11Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.12And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus.13The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments.14Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:15Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.16At 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.17Notwithstanding 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.18And 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.19Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.20Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.21Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.22The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

2 Timothy 4:19-22Greetings

About 2 Timothy 4Paul charges Timothy before God to "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season," because the time will come when people "will not endure sound doctrine." He says, "the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith," and a crown of righteousness awaits him and "all them also that love his appearing." He asks Timothy to come quickly, for many have left him, but "the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me." 2 Timothy 4:12 Timothy 4:22 Timothy 4:32 Timothy 4:62 Timothy 4:72 Timothy 4:82 Timothy 4:92 Timothy 4:102 Timothy 4:162 Timothy 4:172 Timothy overview
