2 Tim 3:1 |
But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:2 |
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:3 |
unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:4 |
treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:5 |
holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:6 |
For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:7 |
always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:8 |
Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:9 |
But they will not make further progress; for their folly will be obvious to all, just as Jannes's and Jambres's folly was also. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:10 |
Now you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance, |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:11 |
persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium and at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me! |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:12 |
Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:13 |
But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:14 |
You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:15 |
and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:16 |
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; |
 |
 |
2 Tim 3:17 |
so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. |
