2 Timothy 3:1-9

1You must understand this: In the last days there will be violent periods of time.

2People will be selfish and love money. They will brag, be arrogant, and use abusive language. They will curse their parents, show no gratitude, have no respect for what is holy,

3and lack normal affection for their families. They will refuse to make peace with anyone. They will be slanderous, lack self-control, be brutal, and have no love for what is good.

4They will be traitors. They will be reckless and conceited. They will love pleasure rather than God.

5They will appear to have a godly life, but they will not let its power change them. Stay away from such people.

6Some of these men go into homes and mislead weak-minded women who are burdened with sins and led by all kinds of desires.

7These women are always studying but are never able to recognize the truth.

8As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men oppose the truth. Their minds are corrupt, and the faith they teach is counterfeit.

9Certainly, they won’t get very far. Like the stupidity of Jannes and Jambres, their stupidity will be plain to everyone.
