2 Timothy 4 Pros Timotheon B 4
1⸀Diamarturomō enōpion tou theou kai ⸂Christou Iēsu,⸃ tou mellarōntou krinarō zōarōntoin kai nekroin, ⸀kai tan epifaneian autou kai tan basileian autou;I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His kingdom: 2kērussasar ton logon, epistēasar eukairōs akairōs, elenchasar, epitimasar, parakalasar, en panta makrothumia kai didacha.Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction. 3eti gar kairos hote tau hugiainarōntau didaskaliau ouk anecheli, alla kata tain ⸂idiain epithumiain⸃ heautoi episōreuali didaskaloin knēthorōntois tan akoan,For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires. 4kai apo men tau alētheiau tan akoan apostrefali, epi de toin muthoin ektrapili.So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. 5sis de nēfasōr en pantei, kakopathasar, ergem poiasar euangelistou, tan diakonian su plēroforasar.But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
6Mis gar ēdē spendomō, kai tos kairos tau ⸂analusiau mu⸃ epistēatē.For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7ton ⸂kalon agōnon⸃ agōnizomē, ton dromon telamē, tan pistian tēramē;I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8loipem apokeiotō mi tos tau dikaiosunau stefanos, hon apodōati mi tos kurios en ekeina ta hēmera, tos dikaios kritos, ouk monem de mi alla kai pantoi toi agaparēntoi tan epifaneian autou.From now on there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day — and not only to me, but to all who crave His appearing.
9Spoudazasar erchara pros min tacheōs;Make every effort to come to me quickly, 10Dēmaos gar min ⸀enkatalipata agaparantos ton nun aiōnon, kai poreuita eis Thessalonikan, Krēskos eis Galatian, Titos eis Dalmatian;because Demas, in his love of this world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia. 11Loukos atō monos meta mu. Markon analabarantos agasōr meta siautou, atō gar mi euchrēstos eis diakonian,Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is useful to me in the ministry. 12Tuchikon de apostelama eis Efesan.Tychicus, however, I have sent to Ephesus. 13ton failonon, hon ⸀apolipama en Trōada para Karpo, erchorōntos ferasōr, kai teim biblieim, malista tain membranain.When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, and my scrolls, especially the parchments. 14Alexandros tos chalkevos polleim mi kakoseim endeiketa ⸀apodōati auto tos kurios kata teim ergeim autouAlexander the coppersmith did great harm to me. The Lord will repay him according to his deeds. 15hon kai sis fulassosōr, liōs gar ⸀antistēata toi hēmeteroi logoi.You too should beware of him, for he has vigorously opposed our message.
16En ta prōta mu apologia oudenos mi ⸀parageneta, alla pantois min ⸀enkatalipala mē autoi logizitoiaAt my first defense, no one stood with me, but everyone deserted me. May it not be charged against them. 17tos de kurios mi parastēata kai endunamata min, hina dia mu tem kērugmem plēroforiteia kai ⸀akoualeia panteim teim ethneim, kai ruima ek stomeu leontou.But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message would be fully proclaimed, and all the Gentiles would hear it. So I was delivered from the mouth of the lion. 18⸀rueti min tos kurios apo panteu ergeu ponēreu kai sōzati eis tan basileian autou tan epouranan; ho tas doxas eis toin aiōnoin toiu aiōnoiu, amēn.And the Lord will rescue me from every evil action and bring me safely into His heavenly kingdom. To Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
19Aspazesar Priskan kai Akulon kai ton Onēsiforou oikon.Greet Prisca and Aquila, as well as the household of Onesiphorus. 20Erastosos menata en Korintha, Trofimon de ⸀apolipama en Milēta asthenarōnton.Erastus has remained at Corinth, and Trophimus I left sick in Miletus. 21Spoudazasar pro cheimōnou erchara. Aspazotō sin Euboulos kai Poudos kai Linos kai Klaudias kai tois adelfois pantois.Make every effort to come to me before winter. Eubulus sends you greetings, as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers.
22Tos ⸀kurios meta teu pneumeu su. tas charitas meta ⸀vu.The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you all.
